Ukrainian individual entrepreneurs owe UAH 12.5 billion in taxes to their country

Previously, individual entrepreneurs could not see if they or their partners had USC (unified social contribution) debt. The only way to learn it was through their online taxpayer account. STS stated that the USC does not constitute a tax debt, so the publication of information about the USC debtors is not mandatory.

However, on 24 February, STS released the data as part of its openness policy, undertaking to update them on a monthly basis.
