IP reports to statistics. What reports should an individual entrepreneur submit to the statistics service?

Entrepreneurs in our country are required to report on their activities not only by the tax authorities, the Pension Fund of Russia and the Social Insurance Fund. In addition to these bodies, each of the entrepreneurs is monitored by Rosstat, which studies indicators of economic development.

Small business reporting to Rosstat is selective. Each year, statistics staff compile a sample, include entrepreneurs they are interested in, and send out letters notifying them that they need to submit a report. Unlike others, in the same letter they send a form that needs to be filled out, and even instructions for filling it out.

It is good if the entrepreneur receives letters at the address specified in the registration documents, and the letter arrives in advance, before the reporting deadline.

You can rely on the Russian Post, but it’s better to play it safe and take the initiative yourself - at least to find out whether a report is needed from you this year.

You report according to the annual sample only if you are a “small enterprise” or “micro enterprise”. This fact can be clarified on the tax website by entering your TIN, OGRNIP or full name into the rmsp.nalog.ru register. If you belong to another category, then reporting is required for you.

Reporting to Rosstat is similar to a questionnaire, so it’s easy to fill it out yourself. Take the completed statistics form to your Rosstat office. The address can be found on the official website: select your region in the “Territorial bodies of the Federal State Statistics Service” section at the bottom of the page.

You can also send the report by mail with a valuable letter with a list of attachments or electronically via the Internet, using a special service for sending reports.

By the way, you can prepare and submit reports to Rosstat very quickly and easily using the online service “My Business” - Internet accounting for small businesses. The service automatically generates reports, checks them and sends them electronically. You will not need to personally visit Rosstat, which will undoubtedly save not only time, but also nerves. You can get free access to this service using this link.

If you go to submit it in person, a Rosstat employee is obliged to accept the report from you and put a mark on its acceptance on the second copy. If you send the report by letter, proof that the report was sent on time will be the copy of the enclosure inventory that remains with you with a postmark on it with the date of dispatch and an attached receipt for payment of the postage. If you send your reports electronically, also make sure that you receive a receipt confirming receipt of the report.

If the company has no income, then instead of zero reports it is enough to write a letter about the lack of activity in free form.

Starting with reporting for 2017, it is necessary to indicate new OKVED.

Rosstat’s requirements for the provision of statistical forms should not be ignored. Article 13.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation provides for fines for failure to provide reports, untimely provision or provision of false information. For individual entrepreneurs, a fine of 10,000 to 20,000 rubles is provided. In case of repeated violation - a fine of 30,000 to 50,000 rubles.

By the way, cases of offenses related to the provision of statistical reporting are considered directly by the territorial bodies of Rosstat.

If an entrepreneur is not on the sample list (statreg.gks.ru), then he cannot be held accountable. Proof can be a screenshot showing that the businessman is not on the list.

An exception is the case when the individual entrepreneur was warned in advance in writing about the observation.

Is reporting submitted to statistics for individual entrepreneurs without employees? The need to submit a report to Rosstat is assigned to all entrepreneurs, regardless of whether they have employees.

Reporting to Rosstat for individual entrepreneurs

An individual entrepreneur must submit reports to Goskomstat in two cases:

• All micro-enterprises, including individual entrepreneurs, report once every 5 years;
• The individual entrepreneur is required to submit a reporting form at the request of Rosstat.

Is it necessary to submit statistics for individual entrepreneurs without employees in 2017? No, if they have not received a corresponding notification from the State Statistics Committee. Continuous observation of representatives of small businesses, in which all individual entrepreneurs were supposed to participate, fell in 2016.

The next reporting year falls in 2021. Only representatives of medium and large businesses (with over 100 employees and revenue over 2 billion rubles) submit statistical reports annually. These do not include individual entrepreneurs. But Rosstat regularly conducts random observations of small business representatives and sends them reporting forms by registered mail. The sample usually includes no more than 1% throughout Russia.

Since 2016, liability for failure to submit statistical forms or provision of false information has been seriously tightened.

Now the individual entrepreneur faces a fine of 10,000-20,000 rubles. For comparison, for failure to file a tax return, an entrepreneur is subject to a fine of 1,000 rubles. According to the law that came into force in July 2016, the individual entrepreneur will not be fined for the first violation - the individual entrepreneur will get off with a warning.

The fine is paid only after receiving a corresponding request from Goskomstat. The committee does not always send them out. A businessman should not pay a fine on his own initiative.

The procedure for filling out reports to Rosstat

The report is submitted to the territorial statistical office at the individual entrepreneur’s place of residence.

The report to statistics for individual entrepreneurs without employees is submitted according to form 1-F Entrepreneur. It is worth noting that this is a one-time form, it is not permanent, and the questions in it may change at the discretion of Rosstat. Instructions are usually included with the report.

The reporting form is no different from the one that applies to employers. An individual entrepreneur must indicate the following information in it: the title page indicates the full name of the individual entrepreneur, his residential address, OGRNIP, INN and OKPO.

The reporting form itself consists of three sections. In the first section, you need to indicate whether the individual entrepreneur conducted business activities last year and whether he worked for another legal entity as an employee. If the individual entrepreneur gave a negative answer to both questions, then the survey is over.

Next, you need to clarify how many months the individual entrepreneur actually ran the business, and indicate the address of the businessman’s office or retail outlet (if it differs from his registered address). In the third question, it is necessary to note the taxation system used: UTII, simplified tax system, unified agricultural tax, PSN or OSNO. The fourth question contains information on the average number of individual entrepreneurs, including partners, family members (only those who are not paid) and employees.

The second section contains information about key business indicators. Here it is necessary to clarify whether the individual entrepreneur provided paid services to the population, as well as the actual revenue received at the end of last year in the context of OKVED codes. OKVED codes are contained in the Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs; the individual entrepreneur indicated them independently at the time of registration.

Also in the section you need to indicate the availability of fixed assets used in the business and their cost.

The third section is devoted to state support for entrepreneurial activity in Russia. The individual entrepreneur needs to clarify whether he is aware of the support measures implemented in Russia and whether he has used them in his practice. Those individual entrepreneurs who were able to receive assistance from the state must indicate its type: financial, informational, property, consulting, or in the field of advanced training for employees.

After filling out all the questions, you need to sign with a transcript, indicate the date and contact information (telephone and email address).

You can send the report in several ways: via the Internet or by registered mail with a list of attachments. In the latter case, you need to save an inventory of the attachment with a Russian postal stamp. It will serve as confirmation of timely submission of reports.

Rosstat collects and analyzes information about the country's economy. Additionally, the government structure summarizes information about the environmental situation, demographics and social situation. Not only legal entities, but also individual entrepreneurs are required to submit reports to the department reflecting actual indicators. Documents are sent to statistics as part of selective or continuous observation.

Who needs to submit reports and when?

Rosstat organizes data collection through territorial divisions. Regional departments and field offices are empowered to request information on the results of economic activities. All commercial and non-commercial entities are required to comply with the requirements of the government agency.

• ordinary citizens of the Russian Federation, foreigners and stateless persons;
• individual entrepreneurs;
• microenterprises;
• representatives of small and medium-sized businesses;
• large firms and corporations.

The regulatory act obliges participants in statistical observations to provide information free of charge. Reporting must comply with government forms. When disclosing data classified as a trade secret, respondents receive a guarantee of confidentiality. Such information is included in analytical materials in a generalized and impersonal form.

Who submits the report to Rosstat and when can be found on the departmental website. The frequency of filling out unified forms depends on the industry, turnover and organizational form of the business. Thus, legal entities are required to annually send financial and accounting documents to statistical authorities. The requirement is enshrined in Article 18 of Law 402-FZ.

Important! Employers submit information on the average number of employees annually. The document is accepted by territorial tax inspectorates, and then the data is transferred to Rosstat.

Entrepreneurs must fill out questionnaires during continuous observation - once every 5 years. In addition, merchants will need to work with forms when they are included in the selective monitoring list. Next time reports will be collected for 2020. Now, merchants will need to work with forms only if they are included in the selective monitoring list.

Where to find out about the obligation to submit reports to Rosstat

Statistical authorities are gradually abandoning the traditional notification procedure. Until 2015, persons included in the list of respondents were sent a letter. The notice was accompanied by forms for entering information and detailed instructions. Government Decree No. 381 amended the regulations. Now all forms are published on the Rosstat website. Paper forms will only be sent to the respondent upon written request.

Information on where and how to learn about responsibilities can be obtained on the World Wide Web. A special service http://statreg.gks.ru answers what kind of reporting needs to be submitted. The program is free and operates around the clock. Accessing it does not require registration or the use of an electronic signature.

Continuous and selective observations

Collection of information for subsequent processing is carried out using two methods. Rosstat conducts large-scale research no more than once every 5 years (). The event covers all regions of the country and economic sectors. The goal is an objective assessment of the development of small and medium-sized businesses.

The last continuous observation was in 2016. Information for the previous 12 months was collected in paper form and through a special web service. The survey covered the following areas:

• types of economic activities of respondents;
• number of hired personnel;
• wage fund;
• revenue;
• business maintenance costs;
• asset structure and value of fixed assets;
• investments;
• use of government support.

Sample observations are organized in relation to certain categories of respondents. Statistical bodies carry out such work annually. Information may be requested monthly or quarterly. Individual entrepreneurs with a small turnover, as a rule, only need to submit an annual report.

Continuous and selective observations serve as the main tools for accumulating information about commercial activity. The agency strives to simplify and reduce the cost of the procedure as much as possible. Today, business representatives can use numerous web services, get advice, and also access statistical references and calculations.

Required Forms

Current questionnaires for entrepreneurs were approved by Rosstat order No. 541 dated August 21, 2017. Last summer the regulations were adjusted. In 2019, updated forms will be used. The list contains dozens of forms. Mandatory forms are provided for individual entrepreneurs with different numbers of staff. Only those merchants who are included in the 2019 sample survey should submit them.

Name	Filling procedure	Periodicity
MP (micro)	Information is provided by representatives of the mining and manufacturing industries. The respondents included fishery owners and timber harvesters. The form is required for employers with up to 15 employees. The group includes merchants without employees	Lost force with the publication of Rosstat Order No. 461 dated July 27, 2018
PM-prom	The form is designed for entrepreneurs without taking into account the number of employees. The form contains information about products produced by manufacturing, mining, gas, steam and electricity distribution, logging and fishing	Updated by order No. 461, submitted within 4 days after the end of the reporting month
1-IP	All individual entrepreneurs must fill out the form. The exception is retailers. There is a special form for them.	Every year until March 2
1-IP (month)	The form is filled out by respondents with more than 101 employees. The list of industries does not differ from the MP (micro) and PM-industry forms	Monthly before the expiration of 4 days from the end of the reporting period

The list of statistical reports is updated annually. Thus, special questionnaires were previously introduced for retailers and the service sector. In 2019, surveillance covers producers, fisheries, mining and logging.

Each Rosstat order is accompanied by step-by-step instructions for filling it out. Interactive materials and automatic programs are presented to help entrepreneurs. The uniform requirements for reporting do not change:

• inadmissibility of fastening sheets with metal staples;
• entering information in the appropriate lines of the form;
• indication of numbers and letters according to the model;
• prohibition of erasures, blots, and the use of proofreaders.

The deadlines and penalties are clearly stated. For being late, entrepreneurs face administrative penalties under Article 13.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of Russia. For the first time you will have to pay 10–20 thousand rubles. In case of repeated violation, the fine will increase to 30–50 thousand.

Normative base

A list of legislative acts and current orders can be found on the official Rosstat portal. Regional departments also have websites on the world wide web. The regulatory framework is presented:

• Federal laws No. 282-FZ of November 29, 2007, No. 402-FZ of December 6, 2011, No. 209-FZ of July 24, 2007;
• government regulations No. 420 of July 2, 2008, No. 620 of August 18, 2008, No. 367 of May 26, 2010;
• by orders of Rosstat No. 618 dated November 27, 2012.

The list includes dozens of departmental orders, instructions and methodological recommendations. The legal framework is supplemented by regional documents.

Brief conclusions

In 2019, entrepreneurs included in the selective observation list submit reports to the statistical authorities. You can find out about inclusion in the list on the Rosstat website. Information must be provided in writing on approved forms. All forms are offered to be downloaded on the portal or requested at the territorial division of the department. You can send information in electronic or paper form.

Data collected from respondents will be used for analytical purposes. The tax authorities will not notify the indicators. For evading reporting, entrepreneurs face administrative fines of up to 50 thousand rubles.

Is a small business required to rent report to statistics? By law, organizations are required to regularly report on established forms to regulatory authorities. The latter include not only the tax inspectorate, the Social Insurance Fund and the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, but also the Statistics Service.

Rosstat requirements for reporting forms vary depending on the type of activity of each enterprise, as well as on the volume of revenue, profit margin, average headcount and other economic indicators. Small business is a kind of “beneficiary” in the statistical information processing system: special simplified statistical reporting forms.

Rosstat carries out a “sampling”

The functions of statistical bodies are, in essence, simple: to collect and summarize information on the economic indicators of the activities of Russian enterprises. It is to obtain reliable data that Rosstat obliges entrepreneurs to prepare and submit reports.

However, it should be borne in mind that individual representatives of small businesses are “noted” by statistics officers only if they are in the so-called “sample”. For this reason, some small firms have never been required to submit a report to statistics.

The Federal Law of July 24, 2007 No. 209-FZ “On the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federation” tells us who belongs to small businesses. The criteria for classifying enterprises as small businesses are as follows:

• Average number of employees. To be considered a micro-enterprise, there must be no more than 15 employees on staff. For small ones, this limit is no more than 100 people.
• Share of legal entities in the authorized capital. For medium and small businesses the bar is set: no more than 25%
• The amount of revenue for a micro-enterprise should be no more than 60 million rubles. For small businesses – 100 million rubles.

How can you find out if a company is included in Rosstat’s sample observations? It’s very simple: the Statistics Service of your region will make sure in advance that you receive a request to provide information. Postal employees will deliver you a corresponding letter with a reporting form attached. In addition, as practice shows, this will be followed by a follow-up call from the statistics curator.

Reports for 2015 must be submitted by April 1, 2016. On the Internet on the Goskomstat website there is a list of organizations that came under selective surveillance this year. In order for the page to open the list of entities required to submit information, in the “Reporting” section you should find your region and territorial department of Statistics. If your company is on this list, but did not receive a letter from statistics until mid-March 2016, contact the territorial office of Rosstat yourself. Nobody canceled the fine for failure to provide statistical reporting, even if you did not receive a letter from Rosstat (after all, it could simply not arrive or get lost).

What reports to submit to statistics?

Statistical reporting forms are individual for each business entity, depending on performance indicators. But, for example, there are special forms for individual entrepreneurs that must be submitted:

• Form 1-IP “Information on the activities of an individual entrepreneur”
• Form 1-IP “Information on the activities of an individual entrepreneur in retail trade”

The first form in the list is submitted if the individual entrepreneur is not an agricultural representative, the second - if the individual entrepreneur is engaged in retail trade.

Statistics reports are filled out by hand or by machine: the main thing is that the data is entered correctly. Then the forms are sent to Rosstat - by mail, courier or remotely, in electronic format via the Internet. We emphasize once again: the sampling is carried out annually. And if your company comes under statistical surveillance, you will be required to submit information:

• monthly or quarterly: depending on the reporting form;
• once a year: this is the privilege of micro-enterprises.

In addition, Rosstat conducts continuous statistical observation every five years, which applies to all organizations without exception.

Submission of financial statements to statistics

To confirm the reliability of the company's main economic indicators, Statistics requires the provision of a balance sheet compiled as of the last reporting date. Please note that “simplified” companies are also required to prepare financial statements. The deadline for providing the balance is the same for both the Federal Tax Service and Rosstat: until March 31 of the next year.

Updated: November 30, 2018 by: Everything for individual entrepreneurs

By order dated August 21, 2017 No. 541, Rosstat approved a new report form for individual entrepreneurs. In 2016, a comprehensive study of IP was conducted. Those. Based on the results of work for 2015, all active individual entrepreneurs were required to submit Form 1-Entrepreneur to the territorial statistics body. For all subsequent years, including 2019, this reporting form is provided only by individual entrepreneurs that are selectively included in the Rosstat list.

The reporting form to Rosstat for 2019 is called Form 1-entrepreneur 2020 (“Information on the activities of an individual entrepreneur for 2019”). Many businessmen in Russia, in order not to track changes in legislation and other important issues on their own, use a convenient online service . The service allows you to minimize risks and save time.

The deadlines for submitting reports to Rosstat in 2020 allow you to fill out and submit the document in advance. The report must be submitted to Rosstat no later than April 1. This can be done electronically or on paper.

In our material today we will look at who submits reports to Rosstat in 2020 and how this document is filled out. At the bottom of the page, the reader can download the 2020 1-entrepreneur form for 2019, as well as a sample form.

Please note that this form is not provided by individual entrepreneurs engaged in retail trade, except for the sale of motor vehicles and motorcycles.

Why is Form No. 1-IP necessary?

Form 1-entrepreneur 2020 was introduced by Rosstat for statistical monitoring of the activities of small and medium-sized businesses. This form is relevant for submitting the 1-P entrepreneur report for 2019 in 2020. The previous continuous survey of individual entrepreneurs was conducted in 2016 (based on the results of 2015).

In 2020, for 2019, the 1-P entrepreneur report will be submitted only by those representatives of small and medium-sized businesses that are included in the list approved by Rosstat. This is the so-called selective observation, in contrast to the continuous observation carried out by Rosstat in 2016 based on the results of 2015. If the legislation in this area does not change, then the next continuous observation, i.e. Submission of the 1-P entrepreneur report will be mandatory for all small and medium-sized enterprises, including individual entrepreneurs, in 2021, based on the results of 2020.

Rosstat carries out selective observation annually. Typically, territorial authorities independently notify individual entrepreneurs by sending them in writing the forms of reports required for submission. But the human factor can interfere with this, so in order to find out whether you need to submit a report for 2019, go to the Rosstat website and fill out the form. If you are included in the list of selective reporting, this service will give you the report form necessary for submission to Rosstat.

Based on Art. 2 of the Federal Law of July 24, 2007 No. 209-FZ “On the development of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federation”, such statistical observations are carried out once every five years to develop a realistic policy of the Russian Federation in relation to SMEs.

It should be noted that the information provided by the individual entrepreneur must be based on real facts, and not just on data submitted to the Federal Tax Service. Rosstat guarantees complete confidentiality of information and information. The transfer of data to tax authorities, according to Rosstat management, is excluded.

The information received by Rosstat on the state of small and medium-sized businesses in 2019 will be used to generate official statistics. The observation results will be available on the Rosstat website - www.gks.ru

Structure and features of filling out the report

At the bottom of the page there is a sample of filling out the 1-entrepreneur form 2020. But it would not be amiss to consider in detail the rules and features of filling out this document.

Form 1-entrepreneur 202 is easy to fill out and does not at all look like a report; rather, it is a regular questionnaire.

The first sheet of form 1-IP consists of two parts, one of which is torn off and remains with the individual entrepreneur to confirm that he has submitted a report to the Statistical Office.

In the detachable part of the report, you need to fill in two lines:

• In the line “Postal address of an individual entrepreneur”, you must write down the actual address of the individual entrepreneur.
• In the line “Individual entrepreneur”, indicate the last name, first name, patronymic and put the personal signature of the entrepreneur.

In the code part of the form, fields with personal unique codes of an entrepreneur without forming a legal entity must be filled in: OKPO - based on the Notification of assignment of the OKPO code posted on the Rosstat Internet portal: https://statreg.gks.ru, TIN - based on Federal Tax Service data.

Filling out Section 1. “INFORMATION ABOUT THE ACTIVITIES OF AN INDIVIDUAL ENTREPRENEUR FOR 2019”

In this section of the form you must indicate data with personal unique IP codes:

• OKPO - indicated in the notification of code assignment received by you at the regional office of the statistical office, so OKPO can be found on the Roststat website at the link http://statreg.gks.ru
• TIN - indicated in the TIN certificate or on the Federal Tax Service website at the link https://service.nalog.ru/inn.do

Question 1. Did you carry out business activities in the reporting year?

If the answer to the question is “YES,” then you must move on to the next question and then fill out the entire 1-IP form.

If the answer to the question is “NO”, then you must put an X in the following question:

If you did not carry out entrepreneurial activity in the reporting year, did you work as an employee for another entrepreneur or legal entity.

If the answer to step 1 is “YES”, you must fill out the following form:

Question 2.“Did you carry out your main business activities in the same subject of the Russian Federation where you are registered as an individual entrepreneur?”

If the place of business activity is located in the same subject of the Russian Federation in which official registration as an individual entrepreneur took place, then you must mark “YES” and proceed to question 3.

If the address of registration as an individual entrepreneur and the place of actual implementation of the main business activity do not coincide, then the answer is “NO” and additional information is provided about the address of the place where the main business activity is carried out. This address should be indicated only if the place of business activity is located on the territory of another constituent entity of the Russian Federation. In a large field, enter the name of the republic, territory, region of the actual location of the main business activity.

Question 3."Indicate the amount of REVENUE (including taxes and similar mandatory payments) from the sale of goods, products, works, services received by you in the reporting year for all types of business activity"

In this paragraph it is necessary to indicate the total volume of all receipts related to payments for goods (work, services) sold:

• if an individual entrepreneur received payment for goods (work, services) not in cash, but in kind, i.e. in the form of goods (works, services) and other property, then the amount of revenue is determined based on the transaction price.
• if the transaction price is not determined, then the amount of revenue is determined by the cost of the goods (work, services) and other property received, calculated at their market prices.
• if it is impossible to establish the cost of the received goods (work, services) and other property, then the amount of revenue is determined based on the prices that were usually charged for similar goods (work, services) sold under comparable circumstances.
• if an individual entrepreneur conducted activities in the reporting year, but did not receive revenue from it, then “0” is entered in the line.

Question 4. “Give a detailed name of the types of activities you actually carried out in the reporting year, describe what products or services you produced in the reporting year.”

In answers to this question, it is necessary to indicate all types of products and services that were produced (provided) by the individual entrepreneur in the reporting year.

Opposite each cell filled in indicating the name of a specific type of activity, it is necessary in fields 4.1. indicate the share of revenue from this type of economic activity in the total revenue of the entrepreneur (in %, in whole numbers).

The sum of the shares of revenue for all types of economic activity should be 100%.

Question 5.“On average, how many people worked in your business in the reporting year: partners (persons participating in your business on the basis of a property or other contribution and performing certain work in your business, may or may not be members of the same household), helping family members, hired workers?

In answering this question, you should specifically highlight:

• partners
• helping family members
• hired workers.

To indicate the number of these three categories, it is necessary to determine their average number. To do this, you need to add up the number of people who worked in each calendar month, including those temporarily absent (sick, on vacation, etc.), divide the resulting number by 12. If the individual entrepreneur worked for less than a full year (12 months), then the resulting amount is divided by the number of months the entrepreneur has been in business. The resulting data is rounded according to the arithmetic rule (1.5 and above should be rounded to 2; less than 1.5 - to 1).

Business partners cannot be members of the same household. They are persons who participate in the business on the terms of a property or other contribution, and who perform certain work in this matter.

Employees are persons who perform work for hire for remuneration (cash or in kind), on the basis of a written contract or oral agreement.

The number of employees does not include individual entrepreneurs who pay taxes on their own and have entered into a civil law agreement and/or have a patent taxation system.
