Gas and gasoline prices are expected to rise in Ukraine due to new changes in the Tax Code. The Verkhovna Rada's Committee on Finance supported the relevant changes aimed at bringing the legislation of Ukraine closer to the norms of the European Union in terms of excise tax.
The committee supported project No. 11256 on increasing excise duties on fuel. He also shared the schedule according to which the increase will take place, informs the Telegram of People's Deputy of Ukraine Yaroslav Zheleznyak.
So, rates for diesel fuel will increase from 139.5 euros to 177.6 euros. This will lead to an increase in the price of diesel at gas stations by 1.95 hryvnias.
Rates for autogas will increase from 52 to 165 euros - this will lead to an increase in the price of diesel at gas stations by 5.8 hryvnias.
"But the situation with the excise tax on gas is very interesting. The Ministry of Finance does not know how it happened that at the last moment they decided to increase excise taxes on gas in different ways. There is a significant increase. During the search for documents, it turned out that the gas increase was proposed by UkrNafta. More precisely, Rostyslav Shurma. Instead of the excise tax on detectives of 70 euros, it will be 277 euros," Zheleznyak noted.
