“From January 1, FOP needs to pay a single social contribution – UAH 704 per month, even if you do not have profits. Since the signing of the law stopped their work more than 158 000 private entrepreneurs”, – reported the analysts.
Recall, from January 1, a separate category of PE, in particular, the second and third groups have to pay the ERUs in the amount of UAH 704 per month, even if you temporarily have no profit.
