Adopted by the Council of changes in the Tax rule confused Bank of Ukraine

Ukrainian banks do not know at what rate to tax deposits, as well as after changes in the Tax code of the country appeared contradiction, say Ukrainian media.
the Tax rule of Ukraine introduced changes that the Verkhovna Rada adopted at the end of December. According to them introduces a 20% fee with cash receipt deposits, i.e. the interest rate charged by the Bank on the Deposit of a person (as well as 1, 5% military duty). The corresponding norm is in PP. 167. 5. 1 of the code. At the same time has not removed the old norm - PP. 170. 4. 1, write " News "." Perhaps inadvertently, " suggests the magazine. This article of the Tax code of Ukraine in the country for the first time introduced the taxation of deposits of residents from 1 August 2014. And the rate was set at 15% of income." News " a reminder that paid its own Banks: they are tax agents And automatically (without the filing of any returns or reports people) were transferred to 15% of Deposit income Residents in the state budget." By the way, have listed a lot: according to the NBU, as of December 1, 2014, Ukrainian accounts of credit institutions, the population kept 417, 2 billion Greven (26, 4 billion) - roughly 50/50 hryvnia And foreign currency. When you consider that, according to the national Bank, the average interest rate on deposits in national currency amounted to 20, 1% 8, 9% in foreign currency, then collectively in the state budget for one year is required to do at 18, UAH 1 billion (1, 1 billion), " writes the magazine. This is a rough calculation assuming the conservation of the total Deposit portfolio of the residents in banks (assuming its nesokrascheniya), And at the rate of 15%. If you raise it to 20% as proposed in the bill, the state budget is required to obtain more - 24, 2 billion UAH (1, 5 billion)." The main question for bankers today: at what rate them to levy taxes on income from deposits? According to the new version of the Tax code - 20% or old (which have not changed, most likely inadvertently) - 15% ", - reported in the publication. It is emphasized that, " If the bankers will apply the higher rate, each investor in the country will be able to sue them in court for overpaid in the state budget 5% ". Executive Director of the Independent Association of credit institutions Alena Korobkova sent on this urgent letter to the chairmen of the credit institutions, and similarly in the State fiscal service And the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine.
