This is not the first meeting with French representatives.

About 200 representatives of regional divisions of the French tax department also heard about positive practices in functioning of the State Tax Service during the martial law, development of the Service, despite challenges of today and stability in work.

“Tax system is one of the key components of the country's economy. Problems in this area need to be quickly resolved, because otherwise they slow down development of the state and disrupt economic capacity. Therefore, despite the difficult situation, acute issues that have arisen and stressful working conditions, the State Tax Service continues not only to perform the specified tasks, but also to reform and develop” – stated acting Head of the State Tax Service Tetiana Kiriienko.
