State Tax Service of Ukraine, within implementation framework of the National Revenue Strategy until 2030, is implementing measures to increase efficiency and transparency of tax administration, level of compliance with tax legislation by the taxpayers, and compliance with the European standards.
Tax reforms and digitalization
- Experiment on the functioning of tax risk management system (compliance risks) in the State Tax Service was launched in July 2024.
- To optimize audit and reduce burden on the taxpayers, the IT solution is being developed for implementation of the Information Communication System "E-Audit" and SAF-T UA processing, which will further reduce time of audits and improve analytics of the State Tax Service.
- Information and communication system "Automated system for work with large data sets for analyzing the transfer pricing risks" (Information Communication System BigData TP) has been introduced to process and analyze large data sets in the electronic form, automate control procedures. This tool allows to analyze risks, increase speed, accuracy and efficiency of the transfer pricing control results, and reduce impact of the "human factor".
- Ukraine has joined international automatic exchange of tax information (CRS), which promotes transparency and combats tax evasion.
State Tax Service successfully passed the OECD Global Forum on Privacy and Data Protection assessment in 2024, becoming equal partner in the global exchange of tax information. International system unites more than 100 countries (including all member states of the European Union).
The first exchange of financial data under the CRS took place in the fall of 2024. Information obtained through this exchange is important tool for combating tax evasion and mobilizing tax revenues.
Control over circulation of excisable products
State Tax Service implements modern technologies for controlling circulation of excisable products, as required by the EU directives. Electronic administration system of the fuel sale and ethyl alcohol is being improved, which tracks movement of fuel and ethyl alcohol and the excise tax payment.
Organizational changes and international integration
- Key services are being digitized, tax reporting processing is being automated, and the Electronic cabinet is being improved. This allows to receive services online.
- Ukraine actively cooperates with the international partners in taxation sphere, which contributes to the harmonization of tax system with the EU norms and ensures compliance with the international standards of tax transparency.
Introduction of the National Revenue Strategy until 2030 is a step towards economic growth and integration of Ukraine into the European market. Introduction of new approaches to the tax control and administration allows not only to increase budget revenues, but also to create more comfortable conditions for doing business and investing in Ukraine.
