Rada Sends Draft Law on VAT for Foreign Packages Back for Revision
The Rada has sent back the draft law on implementing VAT for packages from abroad for government revision. This concerns draft law No. 15460, reports a correspondent from Suspilne. Currently, international packages valued up to 150 euros are not subject to VAT. The draft law proposes to tax all packages regardless of value. The tax would not be paid by Ukrainian buyers, but by online platforms or their intermediaries.
