Ukraine and the International Monetary Fund are discussing alternative approaches to taxation of individual entrepreneurs during the formation of the budget for 2027. The parties agreed that the introduction of a value-added tax for individual entrepreneurs is a sensitive issue and requires other solutions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was announced<\/a> by Prime Minister Yulia Svirydenko.<\/p>\n

According to her, during the spring meeting in Washington, consultations were held with representatives of the International Monetary Fund and European partners on tax policy.<\/p>\n

“The IMF has been understanding of the sensitivity of the issue of introducing VAT taxation for individual entrepreneurs – both for society and for parliament,” said Yulia Svyridenko.<\/p>\n

She emphasized that the parties came to the conclusion that this initiative was unconstructive and that it was necessary to find alternative mechanisms for filling the budget.<\/p>\n

“During the spring meetings in Washington, we held numerous consultations with the IMF and European partners. We will continue to work together on the necessary solutions and develop other alternative measures to ensure the revenue side of the budget for 2027,” said Yulia Svyrydenko.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that a possible alternative could be to extend the increased tax rate on bank profits from January 1, 2027. At the same time, the Verkhovna Rada stated its unwillingness to support the draft law on the introduction of VAT for individual entrepreneurs, emphasizing the need for additional calculations and explanations.<\/p>\n

In particular, on March 20, the Ministry of Finance published a tax bill that provides for mandatory registration as VAT payers for entrepreneurs with income of over 4 million hryvnias per year, as well as other changes in the field of taxation.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the Ministry of Finance published a draft law<\/a> , which, in particular, addresses the introduction of VAT for private entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

It is planned that from January 1, 2027, VAT will be introduced for individual entrepreneurs who receive annual income of over one million hryvnias, while for the third group of individual entrepreneurs, the single tax rate will be reduced by 2%.<\/p>\n

As is known, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine plans to review the conditions for individual entrepreneurs<\/a> and increase taxes.<\/p>\n
