You can write a complaint if the taxpayer does not agree with the amount of the fine (monetary obligation), which was established during the audit, or if the tax service has made a decision that is beyond its competence or does not comply with current legislation of Ukraine.

The amount of the fine directly depends on the type of violation and may be:

• for non-reporting the fine is 170 UAH (until May 2020);
• for non-payment of tax liability, with a delay of up to 30 calendar days inclusive, a fine of 10% of the tax debt is imposed;
• in case of delay over 30 days - in the amount of 20% of the tax debt, etc.

But not always the administrative (pre-trial) way of resolving disputes with government agencies, in particular the appeal of the tax penalty Lviv brings the expected result. Because sometimes officials do not respond properly to complaints or appeals, evade their duties or even legalize illegal actions.
