Instruction manual

1

The first two pages of the application form are dedicated to your personal data: surname, name and patronymic, registration address, date and place of birth, passport details, TIN. If you are an adult citizen of Russia, you simply do not complete the sections on the alien’s passport, temporary residence permit or residence permit in the Russian Federation and on documents confirming the legal capacity of a minor. In other situations, leave blank paragraphs on the passport of a citizen of Russia and / or documents of a foreigner. Do not rush to fill out the paragraph on the number of OKVED codes: it is better to return to it later.

Leave the third page blank: it must be filled in by a notary public who will certify your application (this is a mandatory procedure). But the fourth, devoted to OKVED codes, causes difficulties for many.

To begin with, think about what you plan to do, what areas you plan to cover in the future, in which areas your business can develop at one stage or another. For convenience, you can make a list of them.

When this process is completed, compare what happened with the existing OKVED codes. Their current directory is easy to find on the Internet using search engines for "OKVED codes".

You can skip many sections of this rather big guide. If you, for example, are a designer, mining is hardly relevant for you. Many wordings in the manual may not coincide with the type of activity you are planning. In this case, you can safely take the one that is closest in meaning. In the standard application form, only ten codes are provided. But if you need more, that's okay. Just copy this page and paste into the document as many times as necessary. Just do not forget to put down the current numbering.

When the process is completed, count the number of codes and insert the resulting number into paragraph 8 on the second page. Do not rush to sign: it is better to do this in the presence of a notary. Check if everything is filled out and whether it is correct. Do not forget to indicate in the title part of the first page the inspection you are contacting: after “B” is written “Inspectorate Inspectorate-Inspection No. (registration inspection number) by (name of region or city)”. Depending on the region, all district inspectorates or one (or several) may register entrepreneurs. The number of the one where you will submit the documents is indicated.

5

The receipt of documents (sheet B, last page) does not need to be filled out. This will be done in tax.

Well, that’s it, the statement is ready. Print it out and notarize it. You can attach the necessary documents and go to the tax.

note

1. If you are registered at the place of residence at one address, but live at a different address, you must register the IP where you are registered. Temporary registration (at the place of stay) does not give grounds for registration of an individual entrepreneur, only permanent (at the place of residence or in the old manner of registration).

2. If there is no TIN (individual taxpayer number), you need to get it before submitting an application for registration of individual entrepreneurs. This can be done at the tax office of residence.

Useful advice

Retail trade via the Internet makes sense, just in case, to be included in the list of OKVED codes for everyone who is looking for customers and accepts payment through the World Wide Web: using their website or other methods. In some situations, having this code automatically removes unnecessary questions.
