KIEV: Tax index increased due to the work of the SFS to improve the quality of tax services and administration. This year, the situation with VAT refunds has improved, which is also conducive to the growth of the index. Previously, the VAT refund issue was raised every year. There are no complaints in 2017, which is a big step forward. Also, there were no serious complaints about corporate profit tax,” she said after a meeting of EBA representatives with SFS’s Acting Head Myroslav Prodan on December 20. “SFS Acting Head Myroslav Prodan, his colleagues and business representatives are working perfectly to address current issues. We, as the business association, are engaged in regular, planned and proper dialogue with the SFS’s senior officials. Our further major task is to continue improving the legislation and tax services provided by the SFS staff to tax payers in the regions,” Derevyanko said. The EBA informs that the country’s tax index (2.65 points, within a neutral zone) was compiled based on a survey of 44 tax experts from EBA member companies in May November 2017. This is the highest estimate over the six year research by EBA experts. For comparison, the EBA tax index at 2.43 points related to the SFS was in a negative zone last year.
