Manufacturing remained the largest source of tax payments to Ukraine’s consolidated budget in January–August 2026, accounting for 17.9% of the total, the State Tax Service of Ukraine said in figures reported by Ukrinform.
Compared with the same eight months of 2025, payments from manufacturing businesses increased by UAH 44.8 billion, or 18.2%. The sector therefore retained the largest share of total contributions and recorded the reported increase in receipts.
Wholesale and retail trade, including the repair of motor vehicles and motorcycles, contributed 16.3% of payments. Its contributions rose by UAH 31.6 billion, or 13.5%, from January–August last year.
Public administration, defence and compulsory social insurance accounted for 11.9% of the total. Payments in that group increased by UAH 30.7 billion, or 18.9%. Financial and insurance activities made up 10.8%; their payments grew by UAH 35.7 billion, or 25.5%.
Separately, the State Treasury Service said the general fund of the state budget received UAH 2.29 trillion during the first eight months of 2026, including UAH 227.8 billion in August. Those figures describe general-fund revenues and complement the sector breakdown of tax contributions.
