Income Tax in Ukraine on divideds

I am from the USA and have been living in Ukraine since last year. Unless there have been any recent changes, it is only 5%.  I believe this tax rate came in back in 2010.

Thanks spdmon for the quick reply...

So on dividends you don't pay the full 15% flat tax? Do you know this from own practice?

If yes, do you get a local tax adviser to do the tax submission for you? As a USA citizen aren't you taxed on your worldwide income back home in USA as well?

I think you would be wise to visit your embassy for guidance. They can also recommend local tax advisers pertaining to your specific situation.

Yes thanks. Of course I will contact a local tax adviser.

I just would like to know if any has hands-on experience on paying income tax in Ukraine on income and dividends sourced abroad (i.e. outside Ukraine).

E.g. every year I earn income via my various investments and business activities (outside of Ukraine) BUT would like to pay the income taxes in Ukraine because I spend a lot of time there and I believe the rates are quite good compared to Western Europe. Do you or somebody else have similar motivation and/or experience with this?
