The \u201csimplified system of taxation\u201d (STS) is covering 73.7 % of all entities and 7.6% of all taxes paid. Hence, it is an important system for smaller companies and individual entrepreneurs, permitting them to conduct business with limited bureaucratic obligations and a low tax burden. Nevertheless, there are indications of abuse of the system, which creates fiscal losses and distorts competition against compliant taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p>CES and GET will present a policy paper where they address the issues of tax evasion and tax avoidance by companies, which aim to stay under turnover limits and the present threshold for compulsory usage of cash registers in the STS, and provide recommendations on how to improve the existing system.<\/p>\n<p>The expert discussion will be conducted in English and Ukrainian with consecutive translation.
