The State Tax Service has received a certain amount of information about other incomes of citizens for the first time through the decision to control online sales platforms.
This was stated in an interview with the Ukrainian News by the Verkhovna Rada member from the European Solidarity faction, a member of the Finance, Tax and Customs Policy Committee, Nina Yuzhanina.
"For the first time, the Tax Serrvice was able to receive a certain amount of information about what is happening in our country regarding other incomes of citizens. This is where it all started. Now the Tax Service is only collecting and processing this data," she said.
According to her, when a buyer receives goods from a postal operator with cash on delivery, the receipt for this cash on delivery contains the full identification of the seller - the person to whom the funds are transferred, and the relevant information is automatically sent to the Tax Service.
There are no facts that the Tax Service has already started fining sellers on platforms, because the bill that would allow this has not yet been adopted, Yuzhanina claims.
"The first "bells" will appear when they track the consignments. If it is a consignment, they will most likely immediately notify these people (sellers) of the need to register as either a legal entity or an individual entrepreneur. So far, they have only warned on their website that this work will be carried out," she explained regarding possible actions by the tax authorities regarding sales on online platforms.
As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the Ministry of Finance has developed a bill that provides for the annual transfer of data on all online sellers to the Tax Service.
