Almost 400 Ukrainians registered individual entrepreneurs after receiving a letter from the State Tax Service
Thanks to the information and clarification campaign conducted by the tax service, about 400 Ukrainians officially registered as individual entrepreneurs, bringing their activities out of the shadows. In total, 3,000 taxpayers received letters asking them to explain their sources of income. The purpose of the mailing was to inform, not to punish, informs DPS press office.
The collected information is taken care of by the territorial units of the DPS. As a result of data processing, 391 persons passed the state registration as FOP. Administrative protocols were drawn up only in respect of 7 persons — the cases have already been referred to the court. This testifies to the effectiveness of the dialogue between the tax service and business.
In the period from March to April 2025, more than 11 thousand citizens received a total of 256.6 thousand money transfers in the amount of more than 498.2 million hryvnias. These data were obtained through the Accounting System of registrars of settlement transactions. For example, in April, one person received 111 payments for more than 644.8 thousand hryvnias, and another received 1065 payments in the total amount of more than 375.7 thousand hryvnias.
Currently, another 700 letters are being prepared for those payers who are suspected of carrying out business activities without proper registration. Most of the recipients have a relatively small number of transfers for small amounts, so this data is currently being accumulated for further analysis and use within the scope of tax control measures. DPS is already working with the new information for May, received from the Accounting System of the PRO. Such outreach will continue on an ongoing basis.
As a reminder, in April 2025, the State Tax Service announced the launch of system monitoring of online sales. Particular attention is paid to individuals who trade via the Internet, as well as to FOPs operating without the use of PRO or PRRO.
