Abstract

The aim of the article is to study the theoretical and practical issues regarding the procedure, in accordance with the current regulatory framework, for determining economic entities that carry out activities in the field of services for the accommodation of persons for short-term temporary residence. The economic entities that are tax agents for the payment of tourist tax have been identified, as well as the possibility of expanding the base of taxation with tourist tax for a separate category of economic entities involved in the accommodation of persons for temporary short-term residence, through the introduction of licensing of certain types of activities, has been substantiated. The main aspects and systems of taxation of economic entities related to the hotel and restaurant business are emphasized, including the use of the preferential regime of taxation of services by value added tax. The problematic issues of the organization of accounting and control over the payment of excise duty in the implementation of the sale of alcoholic beverages are identified and the main aspects and features for ensuring control over its implementation in multicomponent alcoholic beverages are emphasized to prevent the imposition of financial sanctions by the tax authorities when they carry out control measures. The expediency of using electronic accounting devices in the sale of excisable products with the possibility of its classification by type and volume has been determined. The main directions and procedure for reflecting in the accounting of incomes related to the accommodation of persons for temporary residence and the provision of related services during their residence are studied. It is proposed to improve the existing forms of primary registration of persons who temporarily rent housing, as well as to expand their use for economic entities, i. e. individuals who provide temporary accommodation services for short-term residence.
