Local budgets of Khmelnytskyi region received 415 million UAH of the land tax during January – July 2020. The indicative target for receipt of this property tax has been fulfilled by 123%, ie the community budgets additionally received almost 47 million UAH in monetary terms.
Herewith, it should be noted that 345 million UAH of the land tax was paid by legal entities, the rest, namely 70 million UAH of the land tax was paid by individuals.
The land tax payment is a budget-forming payment for the territories of Khmelnytskyi region, so its administration is under special control. Emphasis in this area of work is on the fact that not a single hectare of arable land, pastures, land plots, which are allocated for doing business, did not escape taxation.
“Dynamics of the land tax payment credited to local budgets largely depends on the active position of community, which must insist that all business entities and citizens meet their tax obligations. Legal business activities, streamlining land relations with all land users and landowners, as well as close control over the tax discipline of those who use land for commercial gain are prerequisites for the budgetary success of communities.” – stated Head of Main Directorate of the STS in Khmelnytskyi region Vitalii Lazarev.
At the same time the Tax service of Khmelnytskyi region carefully processes local self-government information about the potential land use violations and takes adequate measures to ensure that revenues ultimately work for the community and yield positive results.
