In Ukraine, the tax burden in 2021 will not change. But due to the increase in the minimum wage and living wage, the amount of some contributions will increase. Read about how and to whom taxes will be recalculated on the OBOZREVATEL material.
Who will pay and how much
Some taxes in Ukraine are linked to the cost of living and the minimum wage. And because of your new calculation, part of the payments will also increase. So, as of January 1, 2021:
-
from 62.5 to 70.8 UAH, will increase the maximum tax for each “extra” square of real estate. The area of a house of 120 square meters and an apartment – 60 square meters is considered superfluous.
-
from 1100 to 1320 UAH will increase the minimum size of the one-time social contribution. This is due to the increase in the minimum wage.
-
It will also recalculate the “flat tax” for sole proprietors. So, for the first group, the growth will be from 210.2 to 227 UAH (10% of the subsistence minimum for the disabled); for the second group – from 944.6 UAH to 1,200 UAH (20% of the minimum wage).
The real estate tax wants to change
In Ukraine, instead of calculating the tax based on the area of the apartment, I suggest considering only its cost. For example, according to the current rules in Kiev for an apartment of 70 square meters worth 1.2 million UAH, you need to pay a property tax in the amount of 708.4 UAH. And under the new rules – 2400 UAH. For the same apartment, but worth 2 million UAH (for example, the apartment is located in the center), according to the current rules, you need to pay the same 708.4 UAH, and according to the new rules – 4000 UAH.
“Let’s say you have a three-story house on the outskirts of Kiev, and my grandmother got a house of the same footage in a bad location. We will pay the same tax. And this is wrong. We have a real estate appraisal base, We gave time to prepare a base. They will charge taxes based on the cost of housing “, – said the head of the profile committee of the Rada Daniil Getmantsev.
-
Tax rate: up to 0.02% of the appraised value;
-
can not pay: pensioners, veterans, minors or the disabled, if the price of an apartment is up to 300 minimum wages (in cities with a population of one million) and up to 100 minimum wages in cities with a population of up to 1 million people. For houses (600 minimum wages in large cities and 250 minimum wages) in cities with a population of up to one million people.
True, it should be borne in mind that it will take quite a long period to assess the real estate of all Ukrainians. For this Daniil Getmantsev proposes to give the Cabinet exactly one year.
Analyst Sergei Rodler in a comment to OBOZREVATEL explained: the link with the cost of housing will lead to the fact that the tax will grow annually. Thus, one of the oldest real estate agencies in the world – Knight Frank Group has published a list of cities with the highest growth rate of house prices in 2020 and Kiev ranked eleventh with a figure of 11.2%. In other regions of the country, the situation is similar. Furthermore, not only “secondary” housing is growing, but also “primary” housing due to the large quantity of imported building materials, the price of which is actively rising due to the rise in the exchange rate.
