- An overview of the steps for leaving Ukrainian tax residency (migration and tax) and the practical issues taxpayers may face at each step.
- What happens to a controller of a controlled foreign company (CFC) in the year of departure and on what date control is assessed, which reports and notifications to file, and what tax and penalty risks remain.
This webinar will be relevant to:
