The ESBU in Volyn ensures reimbursement of over UAH 5 million in unpaid taxes by an enterprise

 Detectives of the Territorial Office of the Economic Security Bureau of Ukraine in the Volyn region have notified a company director of suspicion for significant tax evasion. The enterprise in question specializes in the wholesale trade of power tools and industrial equipment.

The investigation established that the company sold goods totaling over UAH 30 million. To minimize tax liabilities, the director failed to record these business transactions in the company's tax accounting. As a result, the enterprise evaded paying over UAH 5 million in VAT.

During the pre-trial investigation, the director admitted guilt and fully reimbursed the damages caused to the state.

The suspect was notified of suspicion under Part 1 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (intentional tax evasion on a significant scale).

The criminal proceedings have been referred to court with a petition to release the individual from criminal liability, based on the full reimbursement of damages as provided by Part 4 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

Procedural guidance is being provided by prosecutors of the Volyn Regional Prosecutor's Office.
