The features of the revenue part of local budgets formation in different countries of the world in the conditions of financial decentralization are revealed. A comparison of the main elements of the intergovernmental tax distribution in some unitary countries of Europe has been made. The dynamics of tax revenues to budgets of different levels in Ukraine is determined. The distribution of tax revenues between budgets of different lev-els is presented in the context of financial decentralization in Ukraine.
