What the draft law provides for

Draft Law No. 9569 "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine on the Administration of the Unified Social Tax" provides for the merger of administrative structures and the assignment of the administration of the unified social tax to the Pension Fund of Ukraine.

Thus, the Pension Fund of Ukraine will be responsible for registering insurers, collecting and accounting for insurance funds, controlling the completeness and timeliness of their payment, and maintaining the State Register of Compulsory State Social Insurance, including personalized records of information on insured persons in accordance with the law.

Accordingly, the unified social tax will be paid in national currency by depositing the respective amounts of the unified social tax to the accounts of the Pension Fund's territorial offices.

The draft law was supposed to have been submitted to the parliamentarians in the session hall back in March of this year. But then this did not happen. For what reasons is unknown.
