In January-June of this year, the mining and metallurgical group Metinvest, including its associated companies and joint ventures, transferred UAH 9.3 billion to budgets of all levels in Ukraine, compared with UAH 9.9 billion in the same period last year.
According to the company’s press release on Monday, the three largest payments were subsoil use fees, which amounted to UAH 2.5 billion, a single social contribution of UAH 1.7 billion, and UAH 1.6 billion in personal income tax.
In addition, Metinvest’s Ukrainian enterprises paid UAH 670 million in income tax and UAH 328 million in environmental tax in January-June 2025. Military tax for the first half of this year increased more than threefold compared to the same period in 2024, to UAH 472 million, and land tax increased by 5% to UAH 659 million.
“In times of war, paying taxes is our direct contribution to the protection and restoration of the country. After all, the financial responsibility of business is a source of strength for the army, medicine, education, and millions of Ukrainian families. We have learned to move forward even in the most difficult times — to work despite threats, to support the economy, and to help the front. We are keeping up the pace because we know that our resilience is part of our common victory,” said Yuriy Ryzhenkov, CEO of the group.
As previously reported, in 2024, Metinvest transferred UAH 19.8 billion in taxes and fees to budgets at all levels in Ukraine.
