Formulas for calculating customs payment in Ukraine

New amendment to the Tax Code of Ukraine entered into force on July 1, 2019.

There are two formulas for calculating customs payment:

 

  • For shipments with total invoice value above 100 EUR but below 150 EUR (customs duty is not calculated; VAT rate is 20% of the sum exceeding 100 EUR):

Example 1:   $130 Calvin Klein Shoes

Value of the goods:  $130 (115EUR)
Customs duty:  N/A
VAT:  (115EUR-100EUR) * 20% = 3 EUR
Total payment:  3 EUR

 

  • For shipments with total invoice value above 150EUR but below 10000EUR (customs duty rate is 10% of the sum exceeding 150EUR; VAT rate is 20% of the sum exceeding 100EUR and sum of the customs duty):

Example2:   $600 iPhone

Value of the goods:  $600 (530EUR)
Customs duty:  (530EUR-150EUR) * 10% = 38 EUR
VAT:  (530EUR-100EUR + 38EUR) * 20% = 93.6 EUR
Total customs fees:  131.6 EUR

 

  • Payments must be paid in UAH according to the rate of the National Bank of Ukraine on the date of submission of customs declaration.
  • All goods with value up to 100 EUR are not taxable.
