VAT rate
Ukraine has a VAT system that applies a standard rate of 20% on the majority of goods and services, while certain products benefit from reduced rates of 7% and 14%. Goods that are exported are subject to a zero rate. VAT is applicable to non-residents offering services within Ukraine, and foreign businesses are required to register for VAT if their sales surpass a specific threshold. VAT returns are usually submitted on a monthly basis, and failure to comply can result in penalties.
