25 February 2015, IFA Ukraine, a Ukrainian Branch of International Fiscal Association, will hold a seminar dedicated to application of ECHR practice in the Ukrainian tax disputes.

The event is designed to answer the question on how the practice of the European Court of Human Rights could be applied to the tax disputes in Ukraine.

Tax litigation practitioners together with representatives of the High Administrative Court of Ukraine and the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine will discuss whether or not Ukrainian courts are following ECHR practice in their considerations.

Using specific case-studies, speakers will cover both positive and negative approaches of Ukrainian courts as to application of ECHR practice in the tax disputes.

Among other things, speakers will focus on European Convention on Human Rights, the right for a fair trial in disputes with tax authorities, civil and criminal aspects of Article 6 of the Convention, property protection issues, etc.

In the outcome, practical recommendations will be provided to attendees on maximizing the value of ECHR practice when defending their position in the court.

The event will be attended by representatives of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine, the High Administrative Court of Ukraine, the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine, National Center for Tax Issues Research, multinational companies, leading law and audit firms.
