Minimum non-taxable income for Ukrainian refugees to align with Latvians' standard
In a move to support Ukraine and its people amidst the ongoing conflict, Latvia has proposed an amendment to boost the non-taxable minimum for non-resident Ukrainians residing in the country. As of January 1, 2025, Latvian residents have benefited from a uniform non-taxable minimum of €510 per month, and from May 1, 2025, this same advantage will extend to non-resident Ukrainians.
Currently, non-resident Ukrainians enjoy a non-taxable minimum of €250 per month in Latvia. This increase aligns with the rise for Latvian residents and is anticipated to significantly enhance the financial situation of many Ukrainian expatriates living in the country.
The amendment seeks to provide equal tax benefits to both residents and non-resident Ukrainians in Latvia, aiming to alleviate some of the financial strain faced by Ukrainian citizens residing abroad due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. The annotation of the draft law indicates that the amendments will have a positive impact on the incomes of non-resident Ukrainians in Latvia.
The exact date the increase in the non-taxable minimum for non-resident Ukrainians was proposed is not specified, but it is likely around the same time as the proposal for Latvian residents. The draft law to raise the non-tax minimum income for non-resident Ukrainians in Latvia was proposed by a specific organization, although further details on the exact reason for its enactment are not currently available.
This move by Latvia is part of a broader effort to support Ukraine and its people in the face of ongoing conflict, showcasing a commitment to solidarity and humanitarian aid. The increase in the non-taxable minimum for non-resident Ukrainians will take effect on May 1, 2025.
