The Ministry of Taxes and Duties reminded about liability for late payment of the professional income tax (PIT).

Starting July 1, 2026, a minimum professional income tax of Br 45 (Br 18 for pension recipients) will be introduced. This innovation primarily concerns individuals who are registered as PIT payers as of the 1st of the month but do not carry out any activity, that is, do not generate receipts in the Profdokhod app, as well as individuals whose tax calculated on the basis of their income is less than the minimum amount.

Tax legislation also provides for increased liability for late payment of the professional income tax. If an individual is late in paying the PIT for three consecutive months, the tax authority will forcibly deregister such a payer. The tax debt will be collected compulsorily, including through enforcement bodies.

"If you have decided to deregister as a PIT payer, you need to do this yourself through the Profdokhod app by going to Settings — Account — Deregistration. If you deleted the app but did not deregister before deleting it, you need to download and reinstall it, and then complete the deregistration procedure. If you forgot your login and password, you can restore them remotely through the Profdokhod app or by contacting any inspectorate of the Ministry of Taxes and Duties," the ministry explained.
