Tax Authority’s Right to Obtain Data from Large Taxpayers: SAF-T UA Requirements

  • During audits, the tax authority can request electronic copies of documents from large taxpayers.
  • These documents include records of income, expenses, and other tax-related indicators.
  • Primary documents, accounting registers, and financial statements are also required.
  • This is mandated by the Tax Code of Ukraine and the procedure for providing documents electronically.
  • The SAF-T UA is a standardized XML file containing data from a company’s accounting system.
  • It includes information on assets, equity, liabilities, and financial changes.
  • The tax authority sends requests specifying the audit period and file submission methods.
  • Separate files are needed for each year if the audit period exceeds one calendar year.
  • Large taxpayers must provide electronic documents within two working days after receiving the request.
