How to Account for Negative VAT Value to Offset VAT Debt?

  • Negative value from line 19 of the VAT declaration can be used to offset VAT debt, but not exceeding the registration limit at the time of declaration receipt.
  • Tax authorities clarified the amount of VAT that can be reflected in the March 2025 declaration to offset tax debt.
  • Tax debt is different from tax obligation; it is the agreed monetary obligation not paid within the deadline.
  • To use negative VAT value to offset tax debt, the debt must exist and its amount must be known.
  • According to the Tax Code, negative value can reduce VAT debt from previous periods, not exceeding the registration amount at the time of declaration receipt.
  • Example: A taxpayer with a negative VAT value of 456,000 UAH and a registration limit of 438,800 UAH can only offset 438,800 UAH of a 450,000 UAH debt.
