The National Agency for Prevention of Corruption (Ukrainian: Національне агентство з питань запобігання корупції) or NAPC is a national anti-corruption agency of the Ukrainian government which is responsible for shaping and implementing anti-corruption policy, while creating an environment conducive to corruption prevention.[3] It has been functioning since 2016.[1]

The agency is one of the three anti-corruption pillars of Ukraine, created after the Euromaidan revolution, along with the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO).

In contrast to NABU, which is a law-enforcement institution, NACP has a preventive function. As such, the Agency develops regulations that help prevent corruption and ensures compliance with them.

The candidates of the 2019 Ukrainian presidential election were required submit a declaration of income for the year preceding the year of the beginning of the election.[4] This document will be scrutinized by the National Agency for Prevention of Corruption who will subsequently publish the results of the audit.[4]
