- Ukraine’s finance committee recommended adopting two laws on international parcels: one amending customs rules for goods sent in postal and express consignments, and another amending the Tax Code to regulate VAT on remote sales of such goods.
- The parcel-tax changes are linked to Ukraine’s commitments under the EU/IMF framework and are presented as a condition for about €4 billion in macro-financial assistance.
- The aim is to create equal competitive conditions for domestic businesses, official importers, and online sellers by ensuring consistent taxation regardless of the goods’ country of origin.
- Separate compromise amendments on politically exposed persons (PEPs) are being prepared to unblock the President’s signing of the law on taxation of income from digital platforms.
- The proposed PEP rules would keep lifelong PEP status and at least 12 months of enhanced monitoring after leaving office, with continuation based on an individual documented risk assessment reviewed at least annually.
