Sole Proprietorship Limits in 2026

28.01.2026 12:10

In 2026, the tax burden and limits for sole proprietors (FOP) changed due to the increase in social standards established in the Law on the State Budget. Additionally, significant changes occurred in military tax rates and rules for staying on the simplified system for specific types of activities.

Below is a detailed overview of the new rates and limits for 2026.

1. Basic social indicators for 2026

The amounts of taxes and income limits depend on these indicators:

Minimum wage (MW): 8,647 UAH (hourly rate — 52 UAH).
Living wage for able-bodied persons (LW): 3,328 UAH.

2. Income limits and taxes for FOP on the single tax (Simplified system)

Annual income limits for remaining on the simplified system have increased in accordance with the growth of the minimum wage (compared to 2025, the growth is about 8%).

FOP Group 1

Annual income limit: 1,444,049 UAH (167 MW sizes).
Single tax (ST): 332.80 UAH per month (10% of the living wage).

3. Taxes for FOP on the general taxation system

For entrepreneurs on the general system, the object of taxation is net taxable income (the difference between income and documented expenses).

PIT: 18% of net income.
Military tax: 5% of net income (temporary rate for the martial law period, increased from 1.5%).
ESV: 22% of net income, but with restrictions:
-
Minimum monthly payment (if there was income): 1,902.34 UAH.
-
Maximum monthly payment: 38,046.80 UAH (based on the maximum base of 172,940 UAH, which equals 20 MW).

4. Single Social Contribution (ESV)

In 2026, the exemption that allowed FOPs not to pay ESV "for themselves" during martial law has been suspended (except for certain categories such as retirees, persons with disabilities, or FOPs in occupied territories).

Minimum insurance contribution: 1,902.34 UAH/month (22% of 8,647 UAH).
Per quarter: 5,707.02 UAH.

5. Other important changes in 2026

2
Non-cash settlements (terminals): The requirement for the mandatory availability of payment terminals for FOP Group 1 is postponed until the end of martial law and for three months thereafter.
3
Reporting: Reporting for employees in 2026 is submitted quarterly.
