SAF-T UA Reporter

Standard Audit File SAF-T UA

SAF-T UA is a mandatory electronic format for submitting accounting data to the tax authorities of Ukraine.

According to the legislation (Draft Law No. 6255 dated 02.11.2021):

  • from January 1, 2025, the submission of SAF-T is mandatory for large taxpayers
  • from January 1, 2027 — for all VAT payers

The SAF-T file is submitted upon the request of tax authorities within 2 working days, which creates high demands on the speed of preparation and data quality.

Untimely submission or errors in the file may lead to penalties and increased scrutiny from regulatory authorities.

Features of SAF-T Report Preparation

The preparation of a SAF-T report requires the consolidation of data from various sources and bringing it into a strictly defined structure. Data may be stored in different systems, which requires its correct mapping to the SAF-T structure.

Additional complexity is created by the XML schema and filling requirements, and manual preparation significantly increases the risk of errors and inaccuracies in the report.
