In 2025, the mining and metallurgical group Metinvest, including its associated companies and joint ventures, transferred UAH 18.7 billion to budgets of all levels in Ukraine, compared to UAH 19.8 billion in 2024.
According to the company’s press release on Monday, the largest amount of deductions was the subsoil use fee in the amount of UAH 4.6 billion, followed by UAH 3.5 billion in single social contributions and UAH 3.2 billion in personal income tax.
In addition, Metinvest’s Ukrainian enterprises paid UAH 1.9 billion in income tax and UAH 690 million in environmental tax last year.

“The war and global challenges have changed the business reality and forced us to work in a new way. But the role of metallurgy remains strategic: it continues to support the economy, provide foreign exchange earnings, and fill the budget. As the largest company in the industry, Metinvest continues to operate, support the regions, and help the army,” said Yuriy Ryzhenkov, CEO of the group.
