Ukraine plans special tax rules for businesses hit by Russian attacks

Ukraine's tax service plans to introduce special rules for businesses affected by Russian attacks, including a dedicated status, reduced inspections, and less bureaucracy, according to acting head of the State Tax Service. The new approach would create a list of enterprises that have documented property damage, using data from emergency services, military administrations, and registries. Tax risk assessments would consider destroyed warehouses and halted production, with inspections only for genuine risks and electronic communication prioritized. For critically damaged companies, personal support from tax officials is planned, though some changes require legislative amendments. The service will not automatically forgive tax debts but will factor in a business's affected status during interactions.
