Construction firm from Poltava reimburses nearly UAH 5 million in unpaid taxes to the state budget

 Detectives of the Territorial Office of the ESBU in the Poltava region have exposed a Poltava-based company operating in the construction sector and executing tender orders for tax evasion. The damages have been reimbursed in full.

The enterprise, established just over a year ago, has already managed to secure several state contracts for the construction and repair of residential and non-residential facilities.

According to the investigation, during the submission of the VAT declaration for 2025, the company's head failed to report tax invoices and did not register them in the corresponding registry in a timely manner. As a result of these actions, the state failed to receive about UAH 5 million in taxes.

The former director of the company has been notified of suspicion under Part 1 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (intentional tax evasion).

During the pre-trial investigation, the enterprise reimbursed the damages caused to the state in full.

The case has been forwarded to the court with a petition to release the former director from criminal liability.

The prosecution is overseen by the Poltava Regional Prosecutor's Office.

According to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and cannot be subjected to criminal punishment until their guilt is proven in accordance with the law and established by a court's guilty verdict.
