This was reported by “Minsk-News” Head of the Payer Information Department of the Inspectorate of the Ministry of Taxes and Duties in Minsk Elena Khadinskaya.
She recalled that the tax on professional income was introduced in 2023. Many individuals are already using it, and successfully. According to her, since 2024, amendments have been made to the Tax Code of Belarus, which also relate to the tax on professional income.
The types of activities that professional income tax payers have the right to carry out remain the same, Khadinskaya said.
She also clarified that changes have been introduced in the plan for individuals to work with their employer or former employer.
“A ban is imposed on carrying out activities within the framework of the professional income tax if the customer of the work (services) is a person who is an employer of an individual. You also cannot work with a former employer from whom you left less than three years ago. What to do in this case – suspend activities? Not at all – all that remains is the payment of income tax in the amount of 13% of earnings or the registration of a business entity and the provision of services in this capacity,” Khadinskaya summed up.
