In the Odesa region, the financial director of a grain exporting company will be tried for failure to pay 8 million UAH in taxes


The Bureau of Economic Security has filed an indictment against the CFO of an exporting company, who evaded taxes in particularly large amounts.

The investigation established that during 2023-2024, the company purchased feed corn, which it subsequently exported to the Virgin Islands, the Bureau of Economic Security reported.

In turn, the company’s officials intentionally failed to reflect the value of the products received and unjustifiably overstated expenses in the company’s income tax declarations. As a result, the exporting company failed to pay more than UAH 8 million to the state budget.

During the investigation, the company fully reimbursed the losses incurred by the budget. Its CFO was notified of suspicion of committing a crime under Part 2 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (tax evasion).

Currently, criminal proceedings with an indictment have been filed with the court. The procedural management is the Odesa Regional Prosecutor’s Office.

We will remind, that in October, The Bureau of Economic Security exposed a director who wanted to create a shell company for exports from the ports of the Odesa region.

Earlier, USM reported that Bureau was reported on the fight against “black” exports from the ports of Ukraine.
