The procedure of printed media registration

Today we cannot imagine life without the media. All media have inherent characteristics, such as mass character and accessible to the public. However, most editions are obviously designed to a particular class of persons with common professional purposes.

Registration of the printed media under current legislation is rather complicated. Nevertheless there is a detailed order of registration, foreseen by the Law of Ukraine “On printed media (press) in Ukraine”.
Both physical and legal entities, as well as labor collectives of enterprises can be the founders of print media. It is noteworthy, the law does not restricts the circle of founders only by Ukrainian entities; a legal entity of other foreign countries also have a right to be founders of Ukrainian printed media.
