Ukraine Plans VAT Hike to Fund War Risk Insurance for Businesses

  • Ukraine is proposing a 1 percentage point increase in VAT starting in 2027.
  • The extra VAT revenue would help fund a business insurance program covering losses from military attacks, with estimated annual financing needs of about $1 billion or more.
  • The tax hike is not final yet; it still requires parliamentary approval and further consultations with businesses and lawmakers.
  • The government says it has no other identified funding source for the program and views the measure as support for businesses operating during the war.
