Real estate is: residential buildings, apartments, rooms, cottages, garden houses, land plots or shares in all of the specified property.
When selling real estate in the territory of the Russian Federation, the term of ownership is important.
The term of ownership of the property is counted from the date of registration of ownership.
Regarding apartments from the developer (new building) – here, since 2020, the term of ownership of real estate is now counted not from the moment of registration of ownership, but from the date of full payment of the cost of the apartment. This document will be an act on the fulfillment of the obligation to pay for the equity participation agreement.
If you sell the property after a certain period of ownership, there will be no tax or declaration.
• Property purchased before 2016 is 3 years of ownership of the property. If the period of ownership is more than 3 years when selling such property, then you do not need to file a 3-NDFL declaration, and you do not need to pay income tax on the sale of the property.
• Property purchased after 2016 is 5 years of ownership of the property. If the period of ownership is more than 5 years when selling such property, then you do not need to file a 3-NDFL declaration, and you do not need to pay income tax on the sale of the property.
• from 2020, it is possible to sell apartments (starting from 2020 to sell) without tax, with a period of ownership of 3 years, but this reduction in the period will only affect:
a) the sale of a single dwelling, at the time of the transaction, there should not be another apartment in the property.
b) if the apartment was inherited,
c) or as a gift (gift) from a close relative;
d) or through privatization. Personal income tax payable to the budget = Income – Deduction = Profit * Tax rate Tax rate: 13% - tax resident of the Russian Federation. 30% - tax non-resident of the Russian Federation.
where is the Income, it is:
1) or the cadastral value of your property as of 01.01.20__ of the year in which the property sale agreement was signed, multiplied by a coefficient of 0.7. We take the information from the taxpayer's personal account in the section my property - sold real estate.
2) or the amount under the sale agreement.
Which is more of these two options will be the Income.
where is the deduction:
1) or 1,000,000 rubles (Article 200 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation) for one year for all the property sold in that particular year.
2) or the amount paid earlier for the property, if it can be documented, these are the following expenses:
* expenses for the purchase of real estate (purchase);
* expenses for the purchase of finishing materials;
* expenses for work related to the decoration of an apartment, room or share(s) in them,
* expenses for the development of design and estimate documentation for finishing works.
At the same time, it is possible to deduct the costs of finishing an apartment only if the contract on the basis of which it was purchased provided for the purchase of an apartment without finishing. Otherwise, it is impossible to take into account the finishing costs.
If you turn out to be a tax non-resident on 01.01.2023, then you are not entitled to deductions, so you will have to pay personal income tax on the entire amount of income received.
How can this be avoided:
Method 1. Remain a tax resident of the Russian Federation. To spend more than 183 calendar days in the territory of the Russian Federation in the current calendar year. Alternatively, you can try to provide documents on treatment or training in another country for up to 6 months. But there is a suspicion that the tax service will have big questions about such documents, especially if you will officially work abroad according to the documents.
Method 2. Sell the property after the expiration of the minimum period of ownership. From January 1, 2019, non-residents of the Russian Federation will be able not to pay personal income tax when selling property that was owned for more than the minimum period of ownership (three years or five years). The amendments were introduced by Federal Law No. 424-FZ of 27.11.2018.
For taxation of income of non-residents received from the sale of property, the period of ownership did not matter until the end of 2018, and personal income tax was collected in any case. But since January 2019, amendments have been made to clause 17.1 of Article 217 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, according to which income received from the sale of real estate after 01.01.2019 is exempt from personal income tax if the minimum term of ownership is met.
Method 3. Donate property to a close relative. Such a transaction will not be taxed. Close relatives are considered spouses, parents and children, grandparents and grandchildren, brothers and sisters, including stepbrothers. When selling an apartment, a resident relative will pay not 30%, but 13% of the income received. A relative is also entitled to a property deduction.

Sale of a car on the territory of the Russian Federation, possible options:
1. The car was sold for an amount exceeding 250,000 rubles, and there is only a sale document (Purchase and sale agreement). The document on the purchase of the car is not available. In this case, the sales tax is formed without taking into account the purchase price of the car, since it is impossible to document it. The amount of personal income tax payable to the budget = (The cost of selling a car according to the PREP is 250,000 rubles.) * Personal income tax rate
2. The car was sold for an amount exceeding 250,000 rubles, and you have documents (PREP) on hand for its purchase. The amount of personal income tax payable to the budget = (The cost of selling a car by PREP – The cost of buying a car by PREP) * personal income tax rate
• If the purchase of the car was for less than 250,000 rubles, then you can use the first option and apply a deduction of 250,000 rubles.
• If the car was sold cheaper than the purchase price of the car, then there will be no personal income tax payable to the budget in this case, but you need to file a 3-personal income tax declaration.
• If the car is sold at a price of less than 250,000 rubles, there will be no personal income tax payable to the budget in this case, but you need to file a 3-personal income tax declaration.
• A 3-personal income tax declaration for the sale of a car must be submitted if the car has been owned for less than 3 years. If more than 3 years, then you do not need to declare income from the sale of the car.
• A tax deduction in the amount of 250,000 rubles is applied once a year, if several cars were sold in one year, then a tax deduction of 250,000 rubles is applied to all cars.
• A tax deduction in the amount of 250,000 rubles is due only to a tax resident of the Russian Federation.
• Additional expenses that can be taken into account when declaring: customs clearance of the car, inheritance registration.

CFC Notification – what is it? And why has there been so much increased attention around this Notification lately?
The abbreviation CFC stands for: Controlled Foreign Company.
It is controlled either by a natural person (FL) a citizen of the Russian Federation, or by a legal Russian person (YL).
Next, the post will continue about FL.
So, an individual, a citizen of the Russian Federation, must (!) be a tax resident of the Russian Federation (there is a separate post about tax residency) acquired (bought in full or bought a share, or opened /established) a foreign company abroad.
After that we will ask the question: "When can this acquired foreign company be considered Controlled by this individual?"
Answer:
1) if the ownership share of an individual exceeds 25%.
2) if the ownership share of an individual is more than 10% and plus the total ownership share of all tax residents of the Russian Federation in this CFC is more than 50%.
in these two cases, this foreign company is recognized as a Controlled individual.
Once Controlled, it means that there is an obligation to report annually to the Russian tax inspectorate at the place of registration of an individual with a report: "CFC Notification".
This notification is submitted at the end of the calendar year in the period from January 01 to April 30.
* if not Controlled, then the Notification of the CFC is not served.
* if a natural person of the Russian Federation is not a tax resident of the Russian Federation, then a CFC Notification is not filed.
So why has there been such increased attention around this "CFC Notification" lately? – the fact is that since recently, starting from the reporting year 2020, for failure to submit such a notification, the tax inspectorate has imposed a fine to an individual in the amount of 500,000 rubles. Previously, from 2015 to 2019, this fine was in the amount of 100,000 rubles.
According to the norms of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, the inspectorate can hold the taxpayer accountable for failure to report for the last three years.
Thus, for example, in 2022, an individual may receive a fine from the IFNS for not providing a "CFC Notification" (as I have repeatedly done with clients) in the amount of:
for 2019 = 100,000 rubles .
for 2020 = 500,000 rubles.
for 2021 = 500,000 rubles.
Total fine to an individual for a total amount = 1,100,000 rubles.
Provided, of course, that the CFC was purchased or established by an individual, before 2019.
The profit of the CFC is subject to taxation in the territory of the Russian Federation. The profit of the CFC is recognized as the personal profit of an individual of the Russian Federation tax resident of the Russian Federation, and this profit must be declared and taxed under certain conditions, which will be discussed in the next post.
Thus, the "Notification of the CFC" is also mandatory for an individual to attach the Financial Statements of the CFC in its original form plus translated into Russian (there is no need to notarize the translation).
If the financial statements of the CFC are not attached to the "Notification of the CFC", the tax inspectorate additionally imposes a fine of 500,000 rubles for not attaching the financial statements of the CFC.
Before making a Decision on bringing a taxpayer to responsibility for a tax offense, an individual can use paragraph 3 of Article 114 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation and file a petition for a reduction in penalties. In my practice, there was the only case when the fine imposed on an individual for three years was reduced by the tax inspectorate 16 times, but it was once, in subsequent times the fine was reduced to 4 times, up to 8 times - all individually, and depends on the circumstances.

Tax residency is the affiliation of an individual or a Legal entity to the tax system of a particular state.
A tax resident of the Russian Federation is obliged to:
1) pay taxes.
2) submit reports to the Federal Tax Service in accordance with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.
* has the right to apply tax deductions (social, property, standard, etc.).
1) LLC (Limited Liability Company).
in which it does not matter who the creator/ founder is:
individual citizen of the Russian Federation;
an individual is a citizen of another country (a foreigner);
other legal entity of the Russian Federation;
foreign legal entity;
such an LLC is always a tax resident of the Russian Federation.
2) Branches, Representative offices, Separate divisions of Russian companies abroad.
– these are always tax non-residents of the Russian Federation.
3) Branches, Representative offices, Separate divisions of foreign companies opened on the territory of the Russian Federation.
– these are always tax residents of the Russian Federation.
4) Sole proprietors (Individual entrepreneurs) and Self-employed
– opened by citizens of the Russian Federation are always tax residents of the Russian Federation.
5) Individuals:
when determining the tax residence of the Russian Federation by an individual, citizenship does not matter (!).
A citizen of the Russian Federation or a citizen of another country (a foreigner) – the tax residence of the Russian Federation is determined only by the actual presence of this individual on the territory of the Russian Federation for 12 consecutive months:
- more than 183 calendar days of stay in the territory of the Russian Federation, recognized as a tax resident of the Russian Federation;
- less than 183 calendar days of stay in the territory of the Russian Federation, is recognized as a tax non-resident of the Russian Federation.
Nuances in determining the next 12 consecutive months:
a) If a personal income tax is withheld for an individual and transferred to the budget by a tax agent, then the date from which the next 12 months must be counted will be the date of income payment.
For example: this is the salary of an individual received from an LLC or from an individual entrepreneur - when paying wages, a tax agent (LLC or individual entrepreneur) is a company that charges wages to an individual. When paying wages, the company must determine on the day of payment whether an individual is a tax resident of the Russian Federation or a tax non-resident of the Russian Federation - the personal income tax rate will depend on this status:
* 13% if you are a tax resident (income over 5 million rubles, the rate will change by 15%),
* 30% if you are a tax non-resident.
b) If an individual calculates personal income tax from his/her received income himself/herself, then the date from which the next 12 months must be counted is January 01 of the year following the calendar year in which the income was received. In this case, the 12-month period is equal to the calendar year in which the individual received income.
For example: income received from abroad (CFC profits, dividends, income from the purchase and sale of shares, bonds and other financial instruments, income received from leasing foreign property, an employment contract with a foreign company, etc.) - in this case, tax residency is determined on January 01.
Individual tax resident:
1) Income received from the source of the Russian Federation, the tax rate:
personal income tax rate = 13% of the amount of income within 5 million rubles for the tax period (calendar year).
personal income tax rate = 15% from the amount of income exceeding 5 million rubles for the tax period (calendar year).
* tax deductions (social, property, standard, etc.) are allowed.
2) Income received from a source outside the Russian Federation, the tax rate:
also as in paragraph 1).
3) Dividends - personal income tax rate of 13%.
Individual tax non-resident:
1) Income received from the source of the Russian Federation, the tax rate:
personal income tax rate = 30% of the amount of all income.
* tax deductions (social, property, standard, etc.) are not allowed.
2) Income received from a source outside the Russian Federation, the tax rate:
such income is not subject to taxation in the territory of the Russian Federation.
3) Dividends - personal income tax rate of 15%.

A VAT tax agent is a Russian company (LLC, JSC, NGO, sole proprietor) that acts as an intermediary between a foreign company and the Russian tax inspectorate.
A Russian company VAT tax agent (even if it is on the USN) draws up "advance" and "shipping" invoices for a foreigner who is not registered in the Russian Federation, in the same way as an ordinary seller, and pays VAT tax for a foreigner to the budget of the Russian Federation.
When purchasing works and services from foreign companies, a Russian company will be a VAT tax agent if the following four conditions are met:
1) you, as an organization or entrepreneur, are registered with the tax authority of the Russian Federation.
2) the place of sale of goods (works, services) that you buy from foreigners is the territory of the Russian Federation.
3) a foreign person is not registered with the tax authorities of the Russian Federation as a taxpayer.
Foreign organizations are registered at the location of their separate divisions in the Russian Federation.When registering, the tax authority of the Russian Federation issues a Certificate to a foreign organization indicating the TIN and KPP.
If a foreign person - a seller of works, services is registered with the tax authorities of the Russian Federation as a taxpayer, then you do not have the duties of a VAT tax agent as a buyer. In order to avoid conflict situations with both tax authorities and foreign partners, it is recommended to clarify whether a foreign organization is registered in the Russian Federation when concluding such transactions. And if yes, then you need to require a foreign person to provide you with a copy of the certificate of tax registration in the Russian Federation.
Note: If you purchase works and services from a foreigner, an individual who is not an individual entrepreneur and is not registered with the tax authorities of the Russian Federation, then you do not have the duties of a tax agent. After all, individuals are not recognized as VAT payers.
4) this operation is subject to VAT. If the transaction is exempt from VAT or is not recognized as an object of taxation in accordance with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, then you have no obligation to pay tax for a foreign counterparty.
___________________________________________________________________________________________

The tax on Professional Income (NAP), in everyday life such a tax regime is called "Self-employed".
This is a new special tax regime that has been applied in Russia since 2019 and will be in effect for 10 years until 2029.
This regime is valid on the territory of all subjects of the Russian Federation.
Some nuances of the NAP:
1) Individuals and Individual entrepreneurs may apply this tax regime. But it must be borne in mind that as soon as the sole proprietor submits an application through the My Tax application about his desire to apply the Self-employed regime, the sole proprietor will have to send a notification to the tax service within one month about the termination of the USN regime. That is, in order for the sole proprietor to apply the Self-employed mode, he must be on the basis.
2) The Self-employed mode is not suitable for marketplace sites, since this mode provides for its own created product/product/service. If a self-employed person, for example, knits exclusive clothes, forges unique masterpieces of art himself, then he can sell this product through the marketplace of the site. And if you buy a product and resell it through the Marketplace of the site, then this NAP mode will not work.
3) When registering in the "My Tax" application, you will need to select the subject of the Russian Federation in which you plan to carry out activities. And this subject of the Russian Federation can change only once a year. The choice of a subject is not tied to the registration of an individual.
4) Foreigners can apply the Self-employed regime, but only citizens from the EAEU (Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan). But registration for the NAP regime is possible only by TIN and password from the taxpayer's personal account, it is impossible to register with a foreign passport. TIN and password can be obtained in any Interdistrict IFNS.
5) The law links the opportunity to become Self-employed only with the presence of citizenship: citizenship must be either the Russian Federation or the citizenship of the EAEU. And whether you are a tax resident or a tax non-resident does not matter.
6) If a citizen of the Russian Federation renders his services as Self-employed for a foreign company, and renders his services to the territory of the Russian Federation, then this falls under the Self-employed regime.
7) When payment from a foreign customer is received in a foreign currency, the amount received must be converted into rubles at the official exchange rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation on the day of receipt of funds. And already enter this ruble amount in the "My Tax" application.
8) If a citizen of the Russian Federation renders his services to a foreign company not on the territory of the Russian Federation, but renders his services abroad, then in this case these operations do not fall under the self-employed taxation regime. Such income (!) from an individual will fall under the personal income tax rate of 13% if the individual is a tax resident of the Russian Federation, and will not be taxed at all if the individual is a tax non-resident of the Russian Federation.
9) There is an "Autopayment" function in the "My Tax" application, this is convenient if an individual is permanently abroad. The NDP tax will be withdrawn automatically, the main thing is that there are funds in the account. This is convenient so as not to get into penalties and fines.
10) If an individual citizen of the Russian Federation is physically located abroad, then he can register through the application "My Tax" as Self-employed, the main thing is that the phone number starts at +7 (Russia). For example, this is when an individual is abroad, and he needs to rent out his apartment on the territory of the Russian Federation.
Note to companies (!)
* companies that enter into a contract for the provision of services or the performance of work with the Self-employed - before entering into a contract, you need to check on the website: https://npd.nalog.ru / is this individual really registered with the IFNS (?) as Self-employed.
* The self-employed must notify the company if he "flies" from the special mode. Specify that if he does not do this, he will be obliged to reimburse the customer for losses. They can include the amounts of contributions, penalties, fines and other sanctions that a company faces if it turns out that it worked with a person without a special tax status. This clause of the contract can be included in the section "Responsibility of the parties".
* companies that plan to cooperate with the Self-Employed, it is necessary to conclude a Contract with them and sign Acts on the work performed / service rendered, but these documents will be additional / accompanying documents in the accounting, the most important and irreplaceable document is the Self-Employed Check.
* if a Self-employed Person has received funds from your company and refuses to further form a Receipt in his personal account and provide it to your company, then it is necessary to complain to the tax inspectorate, as reported in the letter of the Federal Tax Service No. SD-4-3/2899@ dated 02/20/2019. The complaint must be sent via the FTS website: https://www.nalog.gov.ru / in the section "Other requests".
* if a Self-employed Person has provided you with a generated Check, but your company's TIN is missing in this check, then you need to contact the Self-employed Person so that he cancels this check in his personal account and forms the Check again, indicating your company's TIN.
