Ukraine is preparing to raise taxes using the retroactive effect.

Yaroslav Zheleznyak, a Member of Parliament, reported this on Telegram, informs "Khvilya".

The Tax Committee of the Verkhovna Rada supported the government bill on raising taxes (11416-d) for a repeated first reading.

"Text: as it was before + increase in the tax on banks," Zheleznyak said.

According to Zheleznyak, the amendments to the bill include:

  • increase in the military levy from 1.5% to 5%;
  • increase in taxes for entrepreneurs of groups 1-2;
  • increase in advance payments at gas stations;
  • 1% tax on all forms of entrepreneurs of group 3;
  • 25% tax on the profit of financial institutions;
  • increase in the frequency of reporting on personal income tax (to prevent unfair economic conduct);
  • 50% tax on the profit of banks in 2024.

"Since the law as a whole will not be adopted until October, implementation will be carried out from October 1," the deputy said.

According to Zheleznyak, these tax changes will bring 58 billion hryvnias this year and 137 billion next year. Voting on the adoption of the bill in the first reading is expected in the coming days.

Recall that the Ukrainian government planned to raise taxes to finance military expenses. However, at the beginning of September, the bill did not receive enough votes to pass the first reading.

Ukraine is considering the possibility of introducing taxes on goods arriving from Aliexpress and Taobao.
