The debate on VAT abolition for grain and oil is gaining momentum

DFS said that the plans for the abolition of VAT for grain and oilseed's just an idea for discussion, not a legislative initiative.

the Initiative of the State fiscal service (SFS) concerning the abolition of the tax on added cost (VAT) of supplies to the domestic and foreign markets of grain and oilseeds is not yet an official document.

 

this was during the roundtable said the Director of audit, DFS Natalia Ruban.

 

According to Natalia Ruban, the calculations shown in the letter, obtained by the results of the annual audits.

 

She recalled that compensation for this group of producers export VAT 2.5 times more than its payment to the budget.

 

In DFS this initiative is explained by the desire to fight against the shadow market.

 

Speaking at the event MP Leonid Kozachenko noted that the majority of farmers are now working "in white". At the same time, they are likely to suffer most from the initiatives of DFS. And this in turn will lead to the downfall of the industry, which is today the locomotive of the economy.

 

"Shadow" schemes exist, and they must be fought, but not at the expense of those who work honestly," — said Kozachenko.

 

the people's Deputy from "Samopomich" Ivan Miroshnichenko added that the law on compensation of the VAT and it must be respected.

 

"There are problematic issues, but this step (abolition of the export VAT for agriculture) is not worth doing, because then agriculture in General will be punished", — said the MP. "How to remove 50 billion in the sphere, and expansion joints where? VAT export incentive. Say, take instead of grants. Last year already took the sample of them is almost zero. And why metallurgists and chemists do not take? The philosophy of VAT manufacturer support and export, access to foreign markets. So if you want to take something — show how you will compensate. Otherwise, it's discrimination," he concluded.

 

Recall that the export of agricultural products Ukraine brings more than 43% of foreign exchange earnings for the year, and agriculture showed a growth of around 7.8% over last year.
