ENG Dear readers of our channel😊!
Today we would like to talk to you about the possibility of obtaining a Tax identification number (TIN) in Ukraine. Every taxpayer needs one for registration with the tax authorities (the Tax Service). The procedure for issuing this document is governed by Order No. 822 of the Ministry of Finance of Ukraine.
❗️Can a foreign national obtain such a document? Yes!
🅰️ It all depends on what document you hold. For foreign nationals, this may be:
a) a foreign national’s passport🆔;
b) a permanent or temporary residence permit🪪;
c) a refugee certificate📗;
d) a certificate for a person in need of complementary protection📘.
🅱️For foreign nationals or persons who have applied for recognition as a refugee or a person in need of complementary protection, the following are required:
1) a copy📜 of the foreign national’s or stateless person’s passport, certified by the local office of the Migration Service🏛 at the foreign national’s or stateless person’s place of residence in Ukraine and/or bearing a note that the original of such a document has been received for safekeeping by the local office of the Migration Service;
2) asylum seeker certificate📙.
Previously, the TIN was issued in paper form📝, but recently its electronic copy in the ‘Дія’ app has been granted the same legal force.
‼️Important point! Obtaining TIN is not mandatory for everyone, but this document is required for formal employment💼, applying for a bank card💳 and accessing a range of other administrative📨 and social services💌.
