Abstract
The article is devoted to the structure of taxes in the context of robotization and artificial intelligence within the production and service sectors. The increase of robots and artificial intelligence systems will entail the replacement of human labour, which, in turn, will lead to a decrease in budgetary revenues. The article discusses possible options for the future design of robot tax to compensate for budget losses.
