However, there are several groups of Ukrainians who are obliged by law to report annually to the tax service. We are talking about deputies, officials, citizens with a high level of income, etc. On May 1, the campaign to declare citizens’ incomes for 2023 ended. According to its results, the number of people who can call themselves millionaires has increased significantly in Ukraine.
