Ukrainians on OLX and Nova Poshta to Have Data Shared with Tax Authority: 1,016 Audits Planned for 2026.
Revenue Data Collection from Digital Platforms
According to TSN.ua: Starting in 2026, Ukraine's State Tax Service (STS) will begin receiving income data on individuals from digital platforms like OLX and Nova Poshta. The goal is to uncover undeclared earnings and improve tax compliance. A total of 1,016 personal income audits are scheduled for that year, with the aim of strengthening fiscal discipline and ensuring taxpayers meet their obligations.
These audits will be spread across the entire year. The monthly breakdown is as follows: January (57), February (81), March (84), April (81), May (95), June (91), July (87), August (83), September (96), October (89), November (91), and December (81). This systematic approach means the STS will monitor individual tax behavior on a continuous basis throughout 2026.
Most Common Tax Violations
According to Volodymyr Kyzyma, director of the STS department for individual taxpayers, the most frequent tax offenses include:
- failure to file a tax return,
- underreporting the military levy,
- concealing income,
- artificially inflating expenses,
- lack of supporting documents,
- avoiding VAT registration when transaction volumes exceed 1 million hryvnias.
“Access to data from digital platforms will enable the STS to detect undeclared income more effectively and encourage better tax compliance among the population.” – Andriy Timonov, head of tax practice at Riyako&Partners
This move represents a significant step in Ukraine's fight against tax evasion. By tapping into digital platform data, the STS can not only identify violations but also motivate citizens to honestly declare their earnings. Improving tax discipline is expected to boost state budget revenues and promote fair taxation—an especially pressing issue given the country's current financial challenges.
