In 2018, according to the results of a planned check, the Tax Service of Kyiv adopted a tax notification - decision that additionally charged the enterprise a tax on profits worth about 8 million UAH.
Fiscal service claims concerned the reflection in the customer's account of expenses incurred by the client for payment for trademark services and royalties.
On July 29, 2019, the District Administrative Court of Kyiv decided that the tax dispute with the client was resolved in favor of the company. At the same time, all accrued tax liabilities are canceled.
