On 22 March 2022 the tax authorities published on their official website a clarification on certain aspects of the application of the new legislation from the VAT perspective. The main points are:
In case of transitioning to the third group of the unified tax with a 2% rate (from revenues), registration as a VAT payer is not canceled but is considered as suspended. All the transactions performed by a VAT payer while being on this tax system are not subject to VAT.
After returning to the previous tax system, the VAT payer must self-assess VAT liabilities (according to para. 198.5 of Tax Code of Ukraine) on non-current assets as well as on goods/services in respect of which input VAT was recovered AND which were actually sold or used during the period of using the simplified tax regime.
VAT refund for tax periods in which the taxpayer sold fuel using the 7% VAT rate is prohibited.
