Summary/Abstract: The article considers the main threats and challenges to the stable and effective development of the fiscal sphere in Ukraine and the reasons for their occurrence. The ways to overcome these problems are identified. It was noted that the development of the fiscal system in Ukraine since the independence has been accompanied by complex transformations associated with the corresponding steps in its organizational restructuring with changes in legal entities. Accordingly, since independence, the development of the fiscal sphere has undergone 6 stages, that affected the overall state of its development. It was shown that such a complex way of evolution of the fiscal service in Ukraine has left its mark on the complicating circumstances that accompanied its development, which is manifested in the still insurmountable challenges and impending threats that hinder the stable and effective development of this important institution in the system of public administration. The article identifies the challenges and threats that accompany the development of the fiscal sphere in modern Ukraine: the dogmatic nature of fiscal policy, its separation from the actual state of affairs in the economy; low economic development caused by its shadowing and high inflation, etc. The goal of the article is to identify threats and challenges in the implementation of effective domestic fiscal policy and to disclosure strategic ways of the fiscal sphere development in Ukraine for overcoming threats and challenges. It was demonstrated that in order to increase the level of efficient functioning of the fiscal sphere and ensure the fiscal security of Ukraine, first of all, a political will and a system of measures that prevent and counteract its threats and challenges are needed. Another important step towards increasing the capacity of the fiscal sphere is the adoption of a number of management decisions in the system of public administration regarding the fiscal sphere functioning. It is also necessary to carry out reforms in the law enforcement sphere, modernize law enforcement practices as well as to conduct the necessary intelligence activities for studying the current situation in its development, where threats are relevant.
