As of today, the VAT refund debt amounts to UAH 20 billion, the Head of State Fiscal Service Roman Nasiov said, LigaBusinessInform reports.
The Head of State Fiscal Service complained about the “legacy from previous authorities”. “We have a little bit more than 20 billion of VAT refund debt and about 27-28 billion – income tax overpayment. This is the legacy, which we received from the previous authorities. For the last three months we have significant changes, but this will influence neither the whole market, nor particular tax payers”, he said.
Nasirov emphasized that his position is to propose to the Ministry of Finance and government to resolve this issue by the end of the current year. “In order we could enter 2016 with zero balance on both items”, he said.
