03/06/2026 – The Global Forum Secretariat delivered a virtual training session on 2 June 2026 for 35 officials from Ukraine’s State Tax Service (STS), to support ongoing awareness-raising efforts on the Crypto‑Asset Reporting Framework (CARF).
The session aimed to enhance participants’ understanding of the CARF and support Ukraine in assessing its potential implementation. It provided an overview of the framework’s core features, rules, and implementation requirements. Discussions focused on how the CARF operates in practice, including its integration into reporting processes, data-management systems, and exchanges of information.
This capacity-building effort supports Ukraine in making a well-informed decision on potential future commitment, while highlighting the CARF’s potential to enhance tax transparency and domestic revenue mobilisation.
About the Global Forum
With over 170 members, the Global Forum is the leading multilateral body mandated to ensure that jurisdictions around the world adhere to and effectively implement the standard on transparency and exchange of information on request (EOIR) and the standards of automatic exchange of information (AEOI), covering financial accounts under the Common Reporting Standard (CRS) and crypto-asset transactions under the Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). These objectives are achieved through robust monitoring and peer review processes.

The capacity-building programme provided to Ukraine by the Global Forum is funded by Norway and Switzerland.
