Taxpayers paid more than 64 million UAH of the excise tax on the retail sale of excisable products to the local treasuries of Ivano-Frankivsk region during January – April 2020. Comparing to the same period in 2019, revenues increased by 9.7 million UAH. This was reported by the Main Directorate of the STS in Ivano-Frankivsk region.
More than 50% of the excise tax on the sale of excisable products was provided by business entities registered at the Ivano-Frankivsk Directorate, namely 30.2 million UAH.
It should be reminded that each unit of sold alcohol or tobacco product provides 5% of the excise tax transferred to the city treasury or the united territorial community. In this case, the excise tax on retail sale of excisable products must be reflected in the fiscal check on a separate line. If there is no check – the tax is not paid, and accordingly the budget is not filled. Therefore, we recommend buyers to ask for a fiscal check from the seller for the goods, which not only proves the fact of sale, but also guarantees the protection of consumer rights against the counterfeit products.
In addition, please note that business entities operating in our region have acquired 3116 licenses, including:
- for the retail sale of alcohol beverages – 1498;
- for the retail sale of tobacco products – 1262;
- for the retail sale of fuel – 41 licenses and 315 licenses for the fuel storage.
6.5 million UAH was paid to the local budget for production licenses, as well as for the wholesale, retail sale of alcohol beverages and tobacco products during January – April 2020.
