Ukrainian workers have already paid 3 million euros in taxes

Working Ukrainians have already paid more than 3 million euros in taxes to Lithuania, including 2 million euros in April alone.

One in three Ukrainians of working age have already found a job. Social Security and Labor Minister Monika Navickiene said in a press release that Ukrainians in employment have already paid 3 million euros in taxes to our country.

She said that I thank the employers who employ Ukrainians and encourage them to continue registering vacancies with the Employment Service.

More than 50,000 refugees have arrived in Lithuania, of which about 28,000 are of working age.

One in ten Ukrainians have a high-skilled job, and the majority of them work in medium-skilled jobs.

Their salaries range from the minimum wage to more than 2,000 euros per month. The average Ukrainian working in Lithuania earns around 900 euros before tax.

Over 8,700 job seekers from Ukraine are currently registered with the Employment Service.
