Federal Tax Service of Russia updates rules for handling documents for traceable goods
The Federal Tax Service (FTS) of Russia has introduced new temporary document formats required for the goods traceability system. These changes are aimed at simplifying reporting for businesses and making the accounting process more transparent for all market participants.
The package of documents includes recommendations for completing notifications on the import of goods, as well as rules for receiving receipts for the assignment of a registration number for a batch of goods (RNPT). These documents will help companies properly configure their accounting systems and avoid errors when submitting data to tax authorities.
The new formats were developed so that businesses could promptly update their software. This is especially important for companies involved in the import and sale of goods subject to mandatory state control.
Experts note that the introduction of these standards is part of the strategy for the digitalization of tax administration in Russia. The use of unified formats allows the tax service to process information faster, and entrepreneurs to spend less time on bureaucratic procedures.
At the moment, the new formats are advisory in nature. Business representatives are encouraged to study the published materials on the official FTS website in order to prepare their systems for working under the new rules in the near future.
