The legal team of ARTESLEX has successfully defended the client’s interests in a dispute with the tax authorities, who attempted to unjustifiably impose additional tax liabilities and penalties in the total amount of UAH 250,000.00.
The essence of the case was that the tax authority issued a tax notice-decision, by which the client was unlawfully charged with penalties for alleged violations of legislation in the sphere of production and circulation of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products, as well as for conducting retail trade of fuel without the required license. Our lawyers prepared an administrative claim, in which we substantiated the unlawfulness of the tax authority’s position and demonstrated the absence of any legal grounds for such additional assessments.
As a result of the case review, the District Administrative Court fully upheld the legal arguments set out in the claim, declared the actions of the tax authority unlawful, and annulled the tax notice-decision together with all additional tax liabilities. Consequently, the client avoided unjustified financial losses and was able to preserve resources for further business development.
This decision once again confirms that a well-prepared legal strategy and the professional work of the legal team make it possible to effectively protect taxpayers’ rights even in complex disputes with state authorities. For ARTESLEX clients, this means confidence that their interests are reliably safeguarded against unlawful actions of controlling bodies, and that any tax risks can be minimized through timely and high-quality legal support.
The ARTESLEX team continues to actively operate in the field of tax law and to represent the interests of businesses in administrative courts, ensuring reliable protection, effective legal support, and results-oriented solutions for our clients.
