A copy of the certificate of state registration of the entrepreneur. Obtaining and replacing a certificate of registration of an individual entrepreneur

After the procedure for registering a person directly as an individual entrepreneur is completed, he is issued an appropriate certificate of mandatory state registration. Why a certificate of registration of an individual entrepreneur is needed in business, on what conditions it is handed out, what documents will be required to obtain it, are discussed below. In fact, the certificate of state registration of the IP is positioned as some confirmation of the completed process of passing the registration of an individual and providing him with the opportunity to engage in entrepreneurial activities. The submitted document contains an individual OGRNIP number, as well as the date of registration. A document is issued as a certificate of form P61001, which is used when filling out reporting data. In the old sample, the OGRNIP number, however, did not indicate the date of state registration. Since recently, the number of the IP registration certificate is a mandatory requirement, therefore, there is an urgent need to indicate this information in the finished sample form.

Do you need to register an IP? Turn to professionals: drafting documents on the day of contact, choosing the optimal taxation scheme and types of activities.

When and by what body is a certificate of registration of IP issued?

In this case, earlier it was necessary for a person to obtain a certificate of registration before 07/04/2013, the document was issued in the following cases:

  • In the process of forming an enterprise, creating a legal entity, and at the same time an individual entrepreneur.
  • When it becomes necessary to change key information regarding an individual entrepreneur, another legal entity.
  • State bodies issued a certificate of state registration of IP, if there was a need to liquidate the activities of an individual, legal entity as such.

After the onset of 07/04/2013, a new order of the Federal Tax Service No. ММВ-7-6/843, signed by the government on 11/13/2012, came into direct force. In particular, the document specifically regulated the approval of the new form, as well as the content of the document, which was now issued in a slightly different way. In particular, the changes also affected the procedure for making an entry in the established Unified Register of Legal Entities (or the corresponding Unified Register of IP, depending on the form of organization). The certificate of state registration as an individual entrepreneur is relevant only if at the same time an entry is made in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (which indicates the fact of the creation of a legal entity). A document is issued immediately after passing the established registration, a representative of the tax service is issuing it on the basis of an application submitted earlier by the entrepreneur and a set of documents.

How to get a certificate of registration of IP

What does a person need to be able to obtain a certificate of IP registration? A package of documents is being collected (established for citizens of the Russian Federation, persons who are not residents). Documents are submitted in the prescribed manner for a subsequent personal visit to the IFTS authority.

An application by an individual regarding the need to carry out the registration procedure and obtain a certificate. This application is drawn up directly in the form P21001, if possible, the TIN number is also set.

It is mandatory to attach a notarized copy of the passport (as well as show the original to the tax office).
The applicant will be required to provide the original receipt establishing the payment of the mandatory state fee. The fee is 800 Russian rubles.

Among the sets of documents, it is desirable (at the discretion of the applicant) a notification regarding the transition of a person to a simplified taxation system.

A document is provided that establishes the current address of the place of residence of an individual. In this capacity, a certificate of current registration, a house book, or a certificate in the form F-3 can act. In this case, the original is presented directly upon receipt of the certificate, a copy is given to the tax service (a mandatory condition is notarization).

Including attached documents such as a residence permit, temporary residence permit (if we are talking about a foreigner), a passport of a citizen of another country (necessarily a notarized document with a preliminary translation).

The last document included in the data set for obtaining a certificate of registration of an individual entrepreneur is a birth certificate. The need to provide such a document is due to the fact that the passport does not contain information regarding the date and place of birth of the applicant.

Additional information that may be required during registration

For both persons who are residents of the Russian Federation and foreigners, it is relevant to provide additional documents (as a rule, if the certificate is obtained by proxy):

  • A simple power of attorney issued at the MFC (the original is submitted).
  • Notarized power of attorney for the official representative of the applicant (also submitted in original form).

The list of additional information, data should be specified in the tax service. What the IP registration certificate looks like, a sample, can be seen below (insert picture).

What is contained in the certificate of registration of IP

Thinking about how to find out the number of the IP registration certificate? Everything is extremely simple, all the necessary information is indicated directly in the form itself of the finished and completed document. In particular, the following information is provided:

  • Name of the individual entrepreneur. Many people mistakenly believe that it is the organization that is indicated, in fact, the data of a specific person is registered, on which all the activities of the commercial structure are planned in the future.
  • The name of the authority to which all documents were submitted, where the registration procedure was carried out. In this case, it is provided that a specific department of the tax service is established, where the applicant applied.
  • The IP registration number entered in the USRIP is registered. This number is key in the process of preparing subsequent reports, drawing up various documents, and concluding agreements.
  • A prerequisite is the indication of the date on which the state registration of a particular individual was carried out, establishing him as an individual entrepreneur.

Additional information: IP registration certificate number

Additional information is the following:

  • After an individual is registered with the USRIP, another certificate is issued in his hands. This document reflects the entry of information into the USRIP in accordance with the established form R60004.
  • On the part of the tax service, after passing the registration procedure, an appropriate extract from the USRIP is provided (required for subsequent submission to various state bodies). According to this extract, the citizen will be able to receive information in the future about what information about him was entered in the Unified Register.

Important! Any entrepreneur should be advised to check all the information that is indicated in the statement. In the event that, by chance, an error is made in the register, and this is not reported to the tax service employees, false information, invalid information will be listed behind you in the database. In turn, such a situation can easily lead in the future to the fact that state registration will simply be denied.

The situation when an entrepreneur does not have a TIN (this means a taxpayer identification number) deserves special attention. In this case, when going through the registration process, this TIN is assigned to him automatically. After the Tax Service has issued the Certificate, it is mandatory to register in the relevant database. To do this, a document is drawn up in the form 09-2-2, and a Notification of the registration carried out, directly at the place of residence, in the form 09-2-3 is attached.

As practice shows, it takes relatively little time to obtain a certificate of registration. If you need to start this procedure, you will need to contact the relevant tax authority, get high-quality advice on the collection of documents.

To start your own business, you need to register with the tax office as an individual entrepreneur and obtain the appropriate certificate. In this article, we will analyzewhat it looks like, where it should be and how long it takes to process.

Introduction

When an entrepreneur passes state registration with the relevant authorities, he is issued an appropriate certificate confirming his status. This procedure was in force in Russia until the end of 2016. In 2017, on behalf of the government, the Federal Tax Service changed the procedure, and now, when registering an individual entrepreneur, the tax service no longer issues certificates, which made it possible to reduce the cost of special forms with holograms and logos. From the age of 17, entrepreneurs receive a record sheet from the USRIP, and legal entities from the USRLE, respectively.

Attention:if you received a certificate before 2017, then it is valid and cannot be replaced. You need to change it only if the data on the entrepreneur changes (for example, a change of surname), or the document has been lost and is reissued on a new one.

IP standard certificate

It should be understood that a certificate or sheet in itself does not give an entrepreneur or legal entity special rights. He receives the rights to conduct economic activities during registration, and the sheet only confirms that he has such an opportunity.

What data was included in the certificate

Let's look at the classic certificate of registration. It must contain the following data:

  1. What is the name of the document. Usually, an inscription is affixed on it that this is a certificate that confirms the registration of an individual as an individual entrepreneur.
  2. Introductory part. This is followed by data that the registration information was entered into the USRIP or USRLE, depending on the form of business, the corresponding numbers and the date of entry into the databases are put down.
  3. Next comes the data on the individual entrepreneur himself: last name, first name, patronymic. Previously, some territorial offices indicated the date and year of birth, but today this is not required.
  4. Data from the OGRNIP, which indicates the number of the entry that was made in the Unified Register of IP.
  5. Data on the authority that issued the document (that is, the name of the territorial branch of the Federal Tax Service where the entrepreneur underwent the registration procedure).
  6. The position of the employee who issued the document is indicated, as well as his signature with the decoding of the full name.
  7. The wet seal of the territorial branch of the Federal Tax Service is put.

Accordingly, the form contains a unique number and series of the document. It is these data that are now indicated on all the old certificates that were issued by the tax authorities until the end of 2016.

EGRIP record sheet

At first, many entrepreneurs were worried that they did not receive a full-fledged certificate, but managed with an ordinary sheet, but then the process was debugged. People realized that the certificate is completely identical to the sheet, and, in fact, it is only a confirmation for the relevant authorities. Accordingly, since 2018, all individual entrepreneurs receive just a sheet in which the following data is entered:

  1. Surname, name and patronymic of the entrepreneur.
  2. Data from OGRNIP.
  3. Data about the territorial body of the tax service that registered the individual entrepreneur.
  4. Information about the place of registration / residence.

Record sheet from USRIP

It is this sheet that is used by the entrepreneur when filling out invoices, contracts, acts and other papers. It indicates the main data that needs to be transferred to the document headers in order to legitimize them.

Attention:anyone can check if their counterparty is a registered entrepreneur on the website of the tax service. To do this, just enter the data or full name in the appropriate search bar, and you will receive the necessary data about the individual entrepreneur.

Additional documents

Now since you knowlet's look at what other documents the person conducting the business will need. In addition to the sheet, the entrepreneur needs to obtain a certificate that confirms his registration with the territorial office of the tax service. Any taxpayer who is a citizen of Russia, as well as persons who do not have Russian citizenship, must have such a document if they live in the territory of the Russian Federation for more than 181 days in a calendar year and have tax legal relations with other persons or with the state.

This certificate must be held by a person who, for example, purchases housing in Russia, but is not a citizen of the country. Or if he enters into a service agreement with a Russian company. Moreover, he may not even be physically in Russia, but work remotely, but he still has to pay taxes in the country. To do this, he first needs to register with the tax office, and only then sign an agreement or document for the sale of property. Accordingly, a foreigner who entered Russia cannot get an official job without being registered with the tax office.

Attention:if a person works remotely, and a Russian company needs his services, then it can independently draw up the necessary documents with the Federal Tax Service. This can be done by the counterparty, who was assigned to conduct such activities.

To obtain a certificate, simply contact the tax office with a passport and ask them to issue an individual tax number. This procedure takes several minutes and is carried out on a stream. People who have previously received a number do not need to go through the procedure again. The following information is entered into the TIN:

  1. The full name of the document.
  2. Recipient's passport data: Full name, gender, day/month/year of birth, place of birth, gender.
  3. Data that the territorial office has registered the person.
  4. Assigned individual tax number.
  5. Data on the territorial tax authority, the position of the employee and his signature with the decoding of the last name.
  6. Wet seal of the territorial office.
  7. Unique number and series.

If the document is lost or damaged, contact the tax office

When and how documents are received

The TIN is issued when a Russian citizen reaches the age of 18 or upon personal request. An individual entrepreneur has the opportunity to obtain both a certificate of assignment of a TIN and a certificate of registration when contacting the tax office when opening an IP. If the documents have become unusable, stolen or lost, then you should contact the Federal Tax Service again and you will be issued with new papers.

Attention:it is impossible to register as an individual entrepreneur without a TIN, so you need to start with obtaining this document. To apply for it, you need to have a passport and an application for receipt (you can write directly at the office).

You don't need to pay anything for registration. You just hand over the documents and you are given a certificate. It is noteworthy that according to the law, the term for paperwork should not exceed 5 days, but often it is done in a day or two. If the young person does not have a TIN, then the employer can apply for it when the employee is employed. The tax office will send the papers to the accounting department of the company, after which they will be issued to the employee.

The design of the leaflet when opening an IP is done in a slightly different way. You need to contact the territorial office of the tax service, having your passport and TIN with you. At the branch, you write an application and pay the state duty, the amount of which in 2018–2019 is 800 rubles. You can also pay the fee before applying, since not all branches have terminals. In order to avoid problems during registration, we recommend that you contact the tax office in which you are registered. Moreover, in large cities, you need to apply not to the tax office, but to special inspections.

The nuances of obtaining

Above we have already indicated all the necessary information abouthow it is done and where. Let's look at some of the nuances. Firstly, when you first receive a TIN, you do not need to pay, and when registering an IP, you pay 800 rubles. If the documents were lost or became unusable, then for a duplicate TIN you will need to pay a fee of 300 rubles, and for a sheet - 200 rubles. Moreover, these documents will be made up to 5 working days. To get a duplicate sheet faster, you can pay 400 rubles and you will be given it the next day.

To obtain one and the second document, you must have a passport with you and draw up an application. These documents can be submitted to the tax service in three ways:

  1. Personally visit the branch at the place of registration/residence.
  2. Draw up a power of attorney for a third party.
  3. Send papers by mail.

Traditional certificates are no longer used

The fastest and easiest way is to apply on your own - in this case, you will be able to correct errors and get up-to-date information on all issues. But if you do not have time or for some reason you cannot come to the institution on your own, then you can draw up a power of attorney or send papers by mail. Now let's look at how long these documents are valid. By default, they are considered perpetual, but they may need to be reissued. This is done in the following situations:

  1. If documents have been lost or stolen.
  2. If they are worn out or worn out.
  3. If the data about a person has changed (for example, a change of surname).

To replace the papers, you need to contact your local branch, fill out an application and pay a fee. At the same time, your TIN will not change, just like the OGRNIP will remain the same. It is noteworthy that since 2018, it is allegedly not necessary to contact the tax office when changing personal data: in connection with the creation of unified databases, the necessary information is pulled from the GUMV MIA and updated automatically. But in fact, there have been times when something went wrong, and as a result, the data did not change. Therefore, we recommend that a couple of weeks after changing the surname or other personal data, contact the tax office and ask them for an extract from the USRIP.

If the data has not changed, then inform the inspector about it. An extract can be obtained both at the branch, and simply through the tax website in your personal account. You can check the data about yourself, and if something is wrong, notify support and they will correct it for you. We recommend that you do not delay obtaining an extract, as new counterparties will check information about you, see discrepancies and refuse to cooperate.

Note that after the completion of business activities and the termination of state registration, neither the sheet nor the TIN is withdrawn from the entrepreneur. Therefore, many are tempted to use it for possible fraud. We strongly do not recommend doing this, since any counterparty will be able to see that you do not have a registration by checking the information on the site. In addition, such actions fall under the article "fraud" or illegal business, which is punishable by a fine or a prison term. If you use the certificate to obtain a visa to the European Union or the United States, and the fraud is discovered, then you will be banned from entry for several years.

How to speed up data update? There are two ways to do this:

  1. Contact your local office and file a P24001 application stating that the information has been changed.
  2. Create the same application through the website of the Federal Tax Service. In this case, the update will be completed within 5 working days, and you will be issued a new sheet (after paying the fee).

Attention:when changing your last name, we recommend that you get a new TIN so that there is no confusion and hitches. The fact is that the code includes information about the person, and after the change it may not match.

To replace the TIN, a period of 5 working days is also set, but in most cases it is issued immediately or the next day. If you do not want to visit the tax office on your own, then you can transfer the relevant papers by mail or through a trustee. If you change your F.I.O, then first of all update your passport, and only then contact the tax office, as they will require the original with changes.

In contact with

At the first stage of entrepreneurial activity, a newcomer in the field of business needs to go through the procedure of registering his own company. Lack of permits may result in penalties from law enforcement and regulatory authorities. The basis for doing business is a certificate confirming the state registration of the company. In this article, we propose to consider what an IP registration certificate is and what this document looks like.

The activity of organizations and individual entrepreneurs is impossible without proper registration

Purpose of the document

Russian legislation contains a number of rules that every citizen engaged in entrepreneurship must comply with. According to the established rules, it is possible to start such activities only after passing the registration procedure and issuing permits. You can obtain a certificate of registration by contacting your local tax office. After submitting and completing the application, information about the future entrepreneur is transferred to the unified state register of individual entrepreneurs. In this organization, IP is assigned a unique registration number.

The certificate of state registration of an individual entrepreneur is a documentary evidence of the right to conduct business activities. In the absence of this document, a private person does not have the right to conclude contracts and agreements in order to receive regular income. It is important to pay attention to the fact that the document in question contains a unique sequence of numbers. This number is the main requisite of IP. This means that the sequence of numbers contained in the certificate must be recorded in all local documents related to the activities of the IP.

According to the current legislation, each person is granted the right to carry out entrepreneurial activities. Subjects belonging to the field of small business have the opportunity to register in the status of an individual entrepreneur. The choice of this legal form allows you to get more favorable taxation conditions and other benefits from the state. As mentioned above, doing business without permits can result in penalties.

It is important to note that some entrepreneurs who violate the requirements of the law are subject not only to administrative penalties, but also to criminal liability.

A certificate of registration of an individual entrepreneur is necessary to open a current account and obtain a loan from a financial institution. Also, this document is used during the conclusion of contracts and agreements. For certain types of business, this document is the basis for obtaining a license and other permits. Summarizing all of the above, we can conclude that the document in question is an official confirmation of the legal activity of the IP.


The main document for an individual entrepreneur is a certificate of state registration. registration

Registration procedure

In order to obtain the status of an individual entrepreneur, you must contact the tax service. According to the established rules, a citizen must apply to the tax office serving citizens of the area where they are registered. This rule must be observed even in a situation where the future company will be located in another area of ​​the city. To obtain the status of an individual entrepreneur, a citizen must provide tax officials with a number of documents:

  1. Original and a photocopy of an identity document (passport).
  2. Application completed in accordance with Form P21001. In this form, in addition to the basic information, the TIN number is indicated.
  3. Information about the selected tax regime.
  4. Receipt confirming the payment of state duty.

The above documents can be divided into two conditional categories: optional and mandatory documentation. Among the documents that are optional for submission, information on the selected taxation regime can be attributed. In the event that the future entrepreneur does not have a taxpayer identification number, a business certificate and TIN are issued simultaneously.

According to the current law, the application can be filled out not only on a computer, but also in handwritten form . To date, you can register an IP through special online services. These services are located on the official website of the Federal Tax Service and the Gosuslugi portal. It is also possible to pay the state fee using these sites. It should be noted that IP can be registered with the help of third parties. To use this opportunity, you will need to draw up a notarized power of attorney that allows a third party to represent the interests of the future entrepreneur. As practice shows, a more convenient method of applying is to use specialized online services.


Without a certificate, it is impossible to conclude contracts or carry out transactions for the purpose of making a profit

The procedure for opening IP by foreign citizens

When analyzing the question of what a certificate of registration of an individual entrepreneur looks like, one should make a small digression and consider the procedure for obtaining this document by foreign citizens. As in the example above, persons who do not have Russian citizenship should contact the tax office corresponding to their temporary registration address.

Foreigners wishing to conduct business in Russia need to collect a large package of documents. First of all, you will need to make a copy of an identity document and translate this document. It is important to note that the translated copy of the passport must be certified by a notary. In the event that the passport of a foreign citizen does not contain all the necessary data, a translated and certified copy of the birth certificate may be required. Next, you will need to provide the tax office with a temporary residence permit and a residence permit. It should be noted that all of the above documents are submitted not only in the form of copies, but also originals. The rest of the business registration procedure is completely similar to the above example.

Information contained in the certificate of registration of IP

The current legislation contains a regulation according to which documents on registration of business entities are filled out. According to the current rules, this document must contain information about the owner of the business, the date of the registration procedure and the name of the future company. Also, this certificate contains a number corresponding to a unique code entered in the unified state register of individual entrepreneurs. Knowing this code allows you to get all the additional information about the IP.

The registration certificate is made on special paper, which contains special holographic marks. Applying these marks is one of the ways to protect documents from possible forgery. Below is a sample of the document in question, clearly demonstrating what an IP certificate looks like:


The certificate is issued to a person after the procedure for registering an IP in the tax authorities has been completed

It should also be noted that the registration form does not have a limited validity period. This means that the certificate can be canceled only with the complete cessation of entrepreneurial activity. In this case, it will be necessary to submit an appropriate application to the Unified State Register of Industrial Enterprises in order to exclude data on individual entrepreneurs from state registers. However, it often becomes necessary to replace the document in question. In order to obtain a duplicate, you will need to submit an application to the tax service containing the reason for the need to obtain a new certificate. As a rule, such a need arises in the following situations:

  1. When changing the surname, name or patronymic of the entrepreneur.
  2. In case of lost certificate.
  3. In case of damage to the document due to the ingress of chemical or coloring liquids and other cases of partial or complete damage to the act.
  4. In the event that the entrepreneur changes his gender.

It is important to note that when applying for a replacement certificate, the entrepreneur must provide factual evidence of the validity of this application. To confirm the fact of changing the last name, first name or patronymic, you will need to provide a sample of an identity document. The application process looks much more complicated, based on the damage to the old certificate. In this case, the entrepreneur must provide evidence of the fact that the actions that caused the damage to the certificate are not intentional. Many entrepreneurs, if they need to replace a damaged form, resort to a little trick. Instead of claiming damage to the certificate, they claim it is lost. Such actions save time that can be spent on proceedings with the tax inspector.

The procedure for restoring the certificate of registration of IP

This issue is of rather high relevance, since many entrepreneurs are interested in the question of how to obtain a duplicate. It is important to note that according to the current legislation and regulations, it is impossible to obtain a duplicate of the registration form. To obtain new documents, you must obtain an extract from the unified state register of individual entrepreneurs.

To obtain an extract, you must submit a written request to the appropriate authority. It is important to note that today these actions can be performed both by the IP owner himself and by his authorized representative. In addition, the document in question can be obtained on the official website of the Federal Tax Service. This form, certified by the signature of a representative of the tax inspectorate, has the same legal force as a registration certificate. The record sheet received from the USRIP is one of the grounds for doing business. It is these documents that can be used by the entrepreneur when concluding contracts and agreements with counterparties.

Before opening your own business and starting to act at your own peril and risk, any person residing on the territory of the Russian Federation: a citizen of the Russian Federation, a foreigner or a stateless person must go through the mandatory registration procedure and receive a title document in his hands or in electronic format. Since 2013, this document has been a well-known certificate of registration of individual entrepreneurs on yellow stamped paper, however, by Order of the Federal Tax Service dated 12.09.16 No. MMB-7-14 / [email protected] this document was abolished, and now financial authorities are not required to issue it to newly formed entrepreneurs.

It is not so difficult for an individual to register as an individual entrepreneur, if there is a desire. The state facilitated the procedure as much as possible, and also reduced to a minimum the package of documents that a citizen of the Russian Federation (a stateless person or a foreign citizen) must submit to the tax authority. It is enough to have with you the originals of a passport or other identifying document and an individual tax number (TIN), as well as a receipt for payment of the state duty, in order to fill out an application for registering an individual as an individual entrepreneur. There is no need to take out a loan to form an authorized capital or look for partners to open a company, an individual business does not require this.

At the same time, opening an IP is associated with a certain amount of financial risk - an individual is responsible for all his obligations, and even after going through the procedure for closing the IP. Debts are automatically transferred to individuals.

The state also prohibits a certain category of persons from opening their own individual business:

  • citizens of the Russian Federation who are civil servants (just work at a state enterprise is not taken into account);
  • individuals who provide legal / notarial services to the public independently or as part of an association, on behalf of a company, etc.;
  • persons who, by a court decision, are prohibited from engaging in entrepreneurship or certain types of activities under OKVED;
  • minors, unless they are recognized as fully capable and have the consent of their parents (guardians, trustees);
  • persons who were declared bankrupt during the year;
  • adults who have been declared legally incompetent by a court decision.

For persons who are included in this list and have a false certificate of state registration of an individual entrepreneur, the state provides for civil and criminal liability.

In other cases, any potential businessman can submit documents in any way convenient for him and receive an analogue of a certificate of state registration of an individual as an individual entrepreneur. If you submit documents personally or through an authorized representative, the period under the law should not exceed three working days.

When sending a package of documents by mail with a list of contents, the period may be delayed for several days, as well as when submitting through a multifunctional center.

The fastest and most convenient way is to register through the official portal of the IFTS, when the user sends an application filled out on a computer to the tax service through his personal account. But in order to use this service, you must have an electronic signature, without which the entrepreneur will not be able to continue working with the tax office online.

Bureaucratic delays and difficulties in filling out registration forms often scare away potential businessmen with their length.

By removing the certificate of state registration of IP from the list of mandatory documents, the state killed several birds with one stone:

  1. The waiting time for a response from the Federal Tax Service for a future IP is reduced.
  2. State spending on the production of forms and their protection is reduced.
  3. Electronic document circulation increases, inefficient paper - is reduced.

In 2019, any Internet user without contacting the tax authorities can check the counterparty (supplier, client or manufacturer) through a single register of legal entities and individuals without leaving home.

To do this, just go to the official portal of the Federal Tax Service and enter the TIN / ORGIP or the full name and location of the organization you are looking for in the search box. The procedure is completely free, and if the user has entered the data correctly, he will receive information about the year in which and by which tax authority the IP was registered, in which territory he carries out business activities and in which areas of activity according to OKVED he has the right to work.

An extract similar to the electronic version can also be issued by the tax service in several copies, however, the process of obtaining documents will take several days.

One way or another, anyone can check the reliability of an individual entrepreneur simply by knowing the registration data (OGRN, EGRIP or TIN) or name. A fake certificate can't fool anyone.

Individuals do not have the right to act and carry out economic activities without passing the official state registration, in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation. If a person cannot act on his own, he can certify his signature with a notary, and then the notary himself or an authorized representative will carry out the registration procedure on his own and receive documents.

According to the current legislation, the IFTS employees must send or hand over the “EGRIP Record Sheet” to the individual entrepreneur himself or the person who represents him, along with a certificate of registration of the individual entrepreneur with the tax office and a notice of assignment of TIN (if necessary).

Details of the certificate of state registration of each individual entrepreneur were completely transferred to the registration record sheet.

Their Federal Tax Service must issue and enter into the electronic database without fail:

  1. Surname, name and patronymic of the entrepreneur.
  2. Main registration number (ORGNIP).
  3. Date of entry in the EGRIP.
  4. Which tax authority and when the document was issued.
  5. Signature and initials of the responsible person.

The main visual difference between the documents is a table consisting of two columns, which is filled in depending on the purpose of the recipient's request. This table can contain the passport data of the individual entrepreneur, the address of the registering authority, citizenship and information about the place of residence of the individual entrepreneur, valid OKVED codes, etc.

The record sheet of the Unified State Register in the form P60009 is formed on plain A4 paper, and not on protected stamped paper, however, it has the same legal force as certificates of an individual entrepreneur issued before 2017.

It is not necessary to replace the old certificate with the USRIP Sheet of the 2019 sample. Both documents are equivalent and can be used by an entrepreneur in the process of doing business and interacting with regulatory services. It is very easy and convenient to find the right individual and legal entity in a single electronic registry. Even if the individual entrepreneur has ceased to exist, the record of registration and closing of the business is stored in the database and cannot be deleted.

In case of loss / damage / theft of the certificate, it will not be possible to restore the document to the Federal Tax Service, since the tax authority is no longer obliged to issue a certificate.
