Import of goods rules
PDV on imported physical goods is assessed and collected by Customs (Derzhavna Mytna Sluzhba). Importer pays PDV at the border via customs declaration (mytna deklaratsiia). This import PDV is deductible as input PDV (Line 11.1). Import PDV paid at customs also increases the SEA PDV registration limit. Do NOT self-assess imports of goods on the PDV return -- Customs handles assessmentTCU Article 190, 206
Import of services (reverse charge) process
When a Ukrainian PDV payer receives services from a non-resident with no permanent establishment in Ukraine: 1. Self-assess PDV at the applicable rate (20%, 7%, or 14%) on the service value; 2. Report in Line 8 (base) and Line 8.1 (PDV); 3. Register a self-invoice (podatkova nakladna) in YERPN; 4. Claim input PDV in Line 12 (= Line 8.1); 5. Net effect: zero for fully taxable businessesTCU Article 208
Non-resident digital services rules
Since 1 January 2022, non-resident providers of electronic services (e-services) to Ukrainian individuals (B2C) must register for PDV and charge 20%. Applies to: streaming services, app stores, online advertising, cloud services (B2C). B2B: standard reverse charge by the Ukrainian business applies (not the foreign provider). Flag for reviewer: Determine if the foreign provider is already registered and charging PDV (B2C) or if the Ukrainian business should self-assess (B2B)TCU Article 208-1
General deduction right
All input PDV on goods and services used for taxable business activities is deductible. Input PDV must be confirmed by a registered tax invoice (podatkova nakladna) in YERPN or customs declaration. If the tax invoice is not registered in YERPN, the buyer CANNOT claim input PDVTCU Article 198

Proportional allocation formula
If a business makes both taxable and exempt supplies, input PDV on shared overhead must be proportionally allocated. Formula: `Deductible % = (Taxable + Zero-Rated Supplies) / Total Supplies x 100`. Calculated based on prior year's proportions; adjusted annually (re-calculation in December return). Threshold: if taxable supplies are >= 97% of total, the business may treat all input PDV as deductible (no allocation needed). Flag for reviewer: Proportional allocation must be confirmed by qualified tax adviserTCU Article 199
Destroyed and lost goods rule
If goods for which input PDV was claimed are destroyed or lost, the input PDV must be reversed (charged as output PDV). Exception (wartime): Goods destroyed as a result of hostilities (Russian aggression) are NOT subject to input PDV reversal [T2]. However, wartime-destroyed goods PDV cannot be refunded in cash -- can only offset future liabilities. Flag for reviewer: Documentation of wartime destruction required (military administration confirmation)TCU Article 198.5; Transitional Provisions
Refund eligibility rule
When input PDV exceeds output PDV (negative value / vidiemnne znachennia), the excess can be: 1. Carried forward to the next period (Line 20.2), OR 2. Declared for budget refund (Line 20.1). Budget refund is available if the negative value is confirmed by the SEA PDV account balance

Former special regime historical context
Until 31 December 2016, agricultural producers could use a special PDV regime where PDV collected was retained by the producer (not remitted to the budget). This regime was abolished from 1 January 2017. The 14% reduced rate was introduced in 2021 as a partial substitute for certain agricultural commodities
