Ukraine signed the Council of Europe Framework Convention on AI in 2024.

Roadmap for AI regulation (2023)

Roadmap for the regulation of artificial intelligence in Ukraine

Published in October 2023, the roadmap sets a two-stage, bottom-up approach: first voluntary instruments (white paper, general and sector recommendations, a self-assessment tool, a code of conduct and regulatory sandboxes) to help businesses prepare, then a law on AI harmonised with the EU AI Act, timed with Ukraine's EU accession path.
