As reported by NBN with reference to the Telegram channel of the head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Finance, Tax and Customs Policy Danylo Getmantsev, parliamentarians made a number of adjustments to the said bill, and now the amount of additional “infusions” into the 2024 state budget will not exceed UAH 30.1 billion, contrary to preliminary forecasts of UAH 125 billion.
According to Getmantsev, such a reduction in “expectations” became possible after taking into account a series of recommendations proposed by the people's representatives after the first reading:
- the increase in the military levy is limited to the tax period, during which the martial law regime will be lifted;
- funds from the military tax will only go to the special fund formed to finance the Armed Forces of Ukraine;
- tax on excess profits of financial institutions has been deleted at the request of the Ministry of Finance and the NBU;
- the “advance payment” from gas station networks has been edited;
- the increase in the tax rate on the profits of financial institutions will be postponed until next year;
- the 1-percent military tax for legal entities on the single tax of the third group of sole proprietors has been excluded.
