To conduct a due diligence check of a counterparty, it is enough to know the TIN of the organization or individual entrepreneur. Indeed, on the website of the Federal Tax Service there are several services with which you can check the counterparty by TIN for free online. Also, the check can be carried out, knowing the OGRN. If you often do due diligence checks on counterparties, approve the regulation on due diligence of counterparties, in which you specify who and to what extent you will check (for example, depending on the transaction price), what documents should be collected for the counterparty as a result.

Interact with counterparty

If your counterparty is aimed at real cooperation, then Additional information about him you can get from him though. Of course, you need to rely on the fact that the counterparty will refuse to provide you with some information, for example, related to commercial or tax secrets. But it is quite possible to get a copy of the charter or any decisions of the LLC participants.

Do not neglect information from the Internet

The web now contains a lot of different information. It can also be used when checking a counterparty. For example, there are sites where ex-employees leave their opinion about the employer. Based on this information, we can draw conclusions about how your counterparty pays salaries to employees (“in an envelope” or not), and, accordingly, whether he pays personal income tax and insurance premiums in full.
True, do not forget that some Internet information must be treated very carefully - the same former employees can leave negative feedback about the employer, even if he did not actually violate the rights of workers.

A deal with an unreliable counterparty does not mean that you will be charged additional taxes

Even if you made a mistake when choosing a counterparty and it turned out to be a one-day business, this alone is not enough for the IFTS to charge you additional taxes, penalties and fines based on the results of the audit. After all, inspectors must prove that as a result of your actions with a problem counterparty, you received an unreasonable tax benefit. You can read more about this

The main state registration number (OGRN) is assigned to all organizations and individual entrepreneurs operating in the territory of the Russian Federation. This is one of the main numerical identifiers, which contains information about the enterprise in encrypted form (place and time of its creation, type of organization and link to the tax office).

This code does several things:

1. It can serve to confirm the fact that the organization actually exists.
2. OGRN allows you to find out if the organization is included in the "black lists" of the tax service.
3. This code also allows you to find out the address of the company and identify its leader.

Such an identifier is unique for each institution or enterprise and is mainly used by the companies themselves as one of their details when making payments through banks, since the banking organization receives all the necessary information about the payer from the OGRN.

OGRN decoding

The OGRN code for enterprises consists of thirteen digits, the combination of which is divided into several groups. Each of them contains certain information, in particular - the value of the first indicates the type of organization:

• 1 - the figure is a sign of the state registration number;
• 3 - number assigned to an individual entrepreneur;
• 2 - the enterprise or organization is a public institution.

The next two digits are the year of registration (for example, "10" means 2010). The fourth and fifth indicate the region in which the holder of the OGRN is registered, and the subsequent ones (sixth and seventh) are the identifier of the specific tax office that carried out the registration. The numbers from eight to twelve are the number of the decision, according to which the enterprise was organized and registered. The thirteenth digit is a control and serves to verify the authenticity of the OGRN.

Often, instead of the abbreviation OGRN, there may be an abbreviation OGRNIP, which is the identifier of an individual entrepreneur, as evidenced by the corresponding OGRNIP transcript. These codes themselves differ in the number of digits: in OGRNIP there are 15 of them.

How to find out PSRN

You can find out such an organization code in several ways:

1. If you yourself are the head of an organization or an individual entrepreneur, you can see the PSRN in the certificate that is issued upon registration with the tax office.
2. If the TIN of the enterprise or individual entrepreneur you are interested in is known, you can find out the TIN by TIN using a special service.
3. Sometimes it is better to contact tax office with a request to make an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (Unified State Register of Legal Entities). This is not secret information that is shown to any legal entity and individual when applying and providing an identity card. The only drawback of this method is that it can take up to seven days to review the request and provide an extract. This is usually done in cases where it is impossible to find out the OGRN by TIN.

And the last thing: in a number of situations, it may be necessary to verify the authenticity of the OGRN. For example, if you plan to conclude a deal or cooperate with an organization whose “cleanliness” is in doubt, or there is a possibility that this identifier (like all other data) is fake.

For this, the same thirteenth digit of the PSRN is intended, the decoding of which is described above. You just need to discard this figure from the general series and divide the remaining number by 11. You will definitely get a fractional number, from which you need to discard the remainder after the decimal point. Let's take this value as X.

To legally conduct business, all organizations are required to obtain a TIN. With the help of it, the fiscal authorities carry out accounting and control of tax revenues. And other participants in market relations can use the TIN to verify the legality of activities or any kind of debt to the state.

TIN of a legal entity

TIN - individual taxpayer number. All economic entities registered on the territory of the Russian Federation (individual entrepreneurs, organizations and enterprises, farms and commercial funds) have it.

TIN of legal entities - a sequence of 10 digits according to the general classifier of tax accounting. Each figure or combination of them is a kind of code by which you can get information about the taxpayer:

• 1-2: code of the subject of the Russian Federation;
• 3-4: tax office number;
• 5-9: taxpayer number in the USRN.

The TIN code is unified throughout Russia. Assigned to the taxpayer once.

Important. In the event of a change in the personal data of the leader (change of surname or address of registration), the law does not provide for any action on the part of the organizer. That is, the enterprise is registered according to the code created initially. The replacement of the TIN is mandatory only when the legal form of the company changes (JSC, CJSC, LLC, IP) or its reorganization. When changing the address and name, it is only necessary to notify the tax office in order to receive correspondence at the correct address.

All counterparties in accordance with the code designation are divided into:

1. Legal entities (residents);
2. individual entrepreneurs;
3. Foreign legal entities (non-residents).

You can find reliable information about a functioning enterprise using the online service of the Federal Tax Service (FTS) and other government agencies.

1. Clarify information on companies with the same names (city, owner);
