Ukrainians Can Claim Back Part of Paid Taxes
Ukrainian citizens have until December 31, 2026, to file a declaration to receive a tax reduction for expenses incurred in 2025. The State Tax Service announced this. Citizens who received official wages in 2025 and paid Personal Income Tax (PIT) can claim back part of the tax they have already paid. The reduction allows reducing the taxable income by the amount of legally defined expenses, and returning part of the previously paid tax. Expenses that can be included in the reduction include education, mortgage payments, insurance, and other expenses specified by law. Citizens must provide proof of income and documents confirming the level of connection to these expenses. The declaration must be submitted using several methods. After the declaration is reviewed and verified, the tax reduction will be credited to the bank account provided by the taxpayer. The reduction will be processed within 60 calendar days after the declaration is submitted. The State Tax Service warns that the right to the tax reduction does not carry over to future years. Citizens who did not use this right by the deadline in 2025 cannot claim it in the following years.
