Ukrainian models of the OnlyFans platform earned $111 million in 2020-2022, the head of the State Tax Service of Ukraine, Ruslan Kravchenko, announced in an interview with EP.
According to the State Tax Service, in 2020-2022, 5435 Ukrainians received income from posting content on OnlyFans. They had 7036 registered accounts (the platform allows you to register several accounts per person).
In September 2024, the State Tax Service received data on these Ukrainians as part of the exchange of tax information with the United Kingdom, where Fenix International Ltd, which owns OnlyFans, is registered.
After receiving this data, Ukrainian tax authorities began sending requests to persons who received income from this platform, asking them to submit a declaration or demanding that they pay tax. According to Kravchenko, 5126 such requests were sent. Some of the OnlyFans models voluntarily filed a declaration and paid taxes.
“748 people filed tax returns. The amount of their declared income is UAH 356 million,” the chief tax officer said.
At the same time, he refused to answer the question of whether the filing of the declaration by the OnlyFans model would lead to prosecution for attempting to legalize the proceeds of crime, as porn production is a criminal offense in Ukraine.
According to Kravchenko, some OnlyFans models have registered as individual entrepreneurs and pay a single tax. Instead, some declare their income as individuals and thus pay 18% income tax and 1.5% military duty (the rate of this duty has increased to 5% since 2025).
