Personal income tax is one of the main financing sources for the state and communities. Personal income tax provides 33% of the consolidated budget revenues. Taxpayers transferred 507.8 billion UAH of this tax in 10 months of this year. This was informed by acting Head of the State Tax Service Lesya Karnaukh on the Facebook page.

- Kyiv city (118.9 billion UAH),
- Dnipropetrovsk region (50 billion UAH),
- Lviv region (34.1 billion UAH),
- Kyiv region (30.4 billion UAH).
"Of the total amount, local budgets received 240.8 billion UAH of the personal income tax. This is almost 60% of all their revenues. Personal income tax is everyone’s funds for our victory, development of the country, and implementation of important social projects. Your paid taxes work for the country and ensure its stability" – Lesya Karnaukh added.
Reminder! In 2025, the personal income tax rate is 18%, and it is paid on income received by citizens in the form of salaries, remuneration under the civil law contracts, rent, investment income and other income defined by the Tax Code of Ukraine.
Employers are required to act as tax agents – to withhold and transfer personal income tax from the employees’ salaries to the budget.
Individuals who receive income not from tax agents (for example, from providing services or renting property) must independently submit property status and income declaration and pay the tax.
