We truly thank all business entities that honestly declare the real results of their activities and do not evade the obligation to pay taxes.” – stated Head of the Main Directorate of the STS in Volyn region Svitlana Savchuk.
Head of Volyn tax specialists emphasized that the current socio-economic conditions require tax administration specialists to pay even more attention to taxpayers, who potentially create risks regarding the budget’s filling.
“Despite the unfavorable economic tendencies and restrictions due to the pandemic, Volyn tax specialists are fully fulfilling the task of ensuring budget revenues. We strive to work so that our systematic counteraction against the risks and possible minimization has a positive financial result for the budget. At the same time, preventing budget losses, we create more comfortable conditions for honest business. This position of the State Tax Service is in the interests of society and the state” – summarized Svitlana Savchuk.
