OREANDA-NEWS The Russian government has submitted to the State Duma a bill aimed at reducing the regulatory and tax burden on citizens and businesses. The document is posted in the electronic database of documents of the lower house of the Russian parliament.

The amendments, in particular, provide for softening the requirements for access to tax monitoring, a form of control that replaces traditional checks for companies with online contacts with the inspectorate. The amount of turnover and assets required for this is planned to be reduced from one billion to 800 million rubles, and taxes paid from 100 to 80 million.

In addition, the authorities are going to allow individuals who are not registered as sole proprietors to indicate in the documents sent to the tax authorities the entry number of the Unified Federal Information Register instead of the INN or personal data

According to the amendments, data on large families will be sent to the Federal Tax Service centrally, against which such families will be able to receive tax benefits on property taxes in an undeclared manner. They are also going to exclude the amounts of insurance premiums for additional social security for members of flight crews of civil aircraft and employees of the coal industry from the single tax payment.

Earlier it became known that the State Duma and the Russian government have begun work on a project to introduce a progressive scale of taxation. According to Russian President Vladimir Putin, its creation will make it possible to receive "a great return for solving, first of all, social issues and tasks facing the state in this area."
