The Kyiv Tax Office recognized a foreign home appliance manufacturer as a risky enterprise.
The company has been supplying goods to Ukraine since 2006 and is a well-known representative of Italian business, with its products available on the shelves of major retail chains.
Disagreeing with the decision of the Main Department of the State Tax Service (STS) in Kyiv, the company submitted arguments to the tax authorities to prove that it did not meet the risk criteria. At the same time, the company also filed a complaint with the Business Ombudsman Council. The company provided the tax authorities with detailed information about its operations and cooperation with contractors. However, the Kyiv Tax Office ignored the company’s documents and once again ruled that the company met the risk criteria.
The Council thoroughly examined the complainant’s explanations and documents and initiated communication with the Main Department of the STS in Kyiv to remove the company from the list of risky enterprises.
In particular, the Council forwarded the home appliance supplier’s complaint for review by the Expert Group of the Main Department of the STS in Kyiv, which operates under the Memorandum of Partnership and Cooperation between the State Tax Service of Ukraine and the Business Ombudsman Council.
Immediately after this, a company representative informed the Council that the Main Department of the STS in Kyiv had decided that the complainant did not meet the risk criteria and expressed gratitude for the support and assistance provided.
