Appeal against decisions of tax authorities

---

Problems with the fiscal authorities sooner or later arise for any business. Some people even give up the idea of opening their own business, knowing this attitude to businessmen on the part of the fiscal authorities. 

Good relations with the tax authorities is a myth in the realities of our state. Tax authorities do everything to collect as many penalties as possible from Ukrainians. The situation will not change in the near future, it remains only to adapt to it. 

Therefore, for appealing decisions of the tax authorities entrepreneurs turn to us almost most often, having no hope to win the battle with the bureaucracy on their own. Few people know about tax deductions and positive aspects of working with the State Fiscal Service. They are, but this is a topic of a separate conversation. 

Often there are disputes with the tax authorities about royalties, which are taxed at the rate of 18% and military levy. Legal Solutions lawyers deal with even such narrow issues. If necessary, they bring in outside narrow specialists. And can also help in more common situations.

In particularly complex cases, when the whole matter comes to court, the appeal procedure is lengthy, but it is worth the effort and material costs. At least you will save your business, your assets and you will be able to work calmly further.

This is an incomplete list of what the state is trying to punish business. And the one that violated the law, and all the rest, because by default, according to the logic of the tax authorities, everyone violates the law. So, what you could be charged with:

• Putting the company on the register of risky taxpayers;
• accusation of tax evasion;
• revocation of the registration of a taxpayer of UT or VAT;
• wrongful tax notification decision;
• unlawful decision to seize the company's assets;

HOW MANY DAYS DO I HAVE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST THE ACTIONS OF THE TAX AUTHORITIES?

To appeal against decisions of tax authorities it is very important not to miss the statute of limitations. Otherwise, you will have to renew them, and this is not an easy process. 

The general term of administrative appeal is 10 days after receipt of the decision.

If the taxpayer does not manage to file a complaint to a higher tax authority within 10 working days, he will have an additional 6 months to file a complaint in court. However, in this case, together with the complaint, it is necessary to submit a petition to restore the missed deadline for filing a complaint (the petition may be in the form of a separate document or contained in the complaint itself). In the petition it is necessary to justify the validity of the reasons for missing the deadline. Usually the appeal by a lawyer of the decisions of the tax authorities and in this case is quite successful. 

If the complaint for some reason will not consider it will return it, indicating the reason for non-consideration.

What valid reasons exist for the extension of the statute of limitations in appealing tax decisions?

For example, valid reasons are:

• stay outside of Ukraine;
• stay on a voyage
• stay in prison
• being a prisoner of war on the territory of other states;
• recognition by the court as missing.
