With the development of government information systems in Russia and the introduction of electronic services, citizens have the opportunity to use government services without leaving their homes. So, today you can apply to the tax service for the assignment of a TIN remotely via the Internet. It has also become possible to find out your taxpayer identification number online, if it has already been assigned earlier. But what if the user needs not only the number itself, but also a document confirming tax registration? Is it possible to independently print the TIN certificate of an individual by number? What to do if the previously issued certificate was lost or damaged? The answers to these questions will be given later in the article.

The procedure for assigning and using an identifier

TIN is an identifier assigned to a citizen when registering for tax purposes. It plays only one role - it serves as a unique sign of one taxpayer, which makes it possible to distinguish it from others. The tax authority indicates the TIN of the physical. person in all notifications sent to him and uses it to verify, identify the taxpayer with payments received on his behalf, his debts, etc.

The law does not oblige people who do not entrepreneurial activity, receive a TIN. But to become an individual entrepreneur (IP) without this number will not work. When registering a physical person as an individual entrepreneur, the tax authority assigns him a TIN by default, if it has not been assigned before.

In addition, a TIN can be assigned to a person without his knowledge, for example, if necessary, to collect a tax. But in most cases, the basis for assigning a TIN to an object is an application of the appropriate form (No. 2-2-Accounting).

The standard scheme for assigning an identifier is as follows:

• the object applies to the tax office at the place of registration and submits the completed application and passport for verification;
• the tax authority considers the application, checks the data and enters information about the new taxpayer in the state. registry;
• the applicant receives a certificate of registration indicating the TIN.

You can apply to the authorized body in person and remotely. Registered users of the State Services portal and the official website of the tax service have the opportunity to do this using the Internet.

Electronic services of the tax service related to TIN

The Federal Tax Service (FTS), through special electronic services posted on the official website of the department, provides citizens with the following services.

Physical setting. individuals for tax purposes. You can generate, register and send an application to the selected inspection, then track information about the status of its processing (see,). After the procedure is completed, the user will need to appear at the inspection to receive a certificate in paper form; it is not provided in electronic form, which means that you cannot print your TIN from the website of the tax service.

Providing information about the already assigned TIN. If there is a need to find out your taxpayer number, you can do this in real time by filling out a special form with personal and passport data. After the program processes the data, the TIN will be displayed on the screen, but even in this case it will not work to print the certificate via the Internet.

You can also find out your TIN on the State Services portal. It can be found on the passport data. This service is available to all users with an account level of at least Standard. Since the service involves only determining the number, it will also not work to print the TIN from the State Services website.

Note: the State Services has a very useful service that allows you to determine the taxpayer's existing debt by TIN and pay it off or print tax receipts. It is located in the "Taxes and Finances" section of the service catalog. Good to read how.

It turns out that it is not possible to obtain a TIN certificate on the State Services portal, as well as on the website of the Federal Tax Service, so is it even possible to print it via the Internet?

TIN certificate

Information about the taxpayer and the TIN assigned to him is applied by the tax authority to the certificate form approved by Order of the Federal Tax Service of November 23, 2004 in the established form N 2-1-Accounting. Such forms are classified as security printing products. All of them have a series and number and are subject to accounting.

Form N 2-1-Accounting involves not only entering information about the taxpayer, but also indicating the name of the official of the tax authority who issued the certificate with his signature. In addition, according to the above-mentioned order, a protective holographic mark is applied to the form.

So, it becomes obvious that it is impossible to print your TIN by number on your own. Even if you find and download form N 2-1-Accounting from the Internet, fill it out and print it, such paper will not have any legal force. Therefore, if you need to get a certificate for the first time, you can use the above methods. If you need to restore the lost document, you should contact the tax office in person or through a representative.

If the user has problems while working with the portal site, it will help to solve them quickly. All about getting expert help.

Note: now you can get it at the State Services in a few clicks.

Reissuance of TIN certificate

If the initial issuance of a document is free, then a state duty in the amount of 300 rubles must be paid for the provision of a duplicate of the lost certificate. Translate cash you can on the website of the Federal Tax Service, using the option "Payment of state duty" and following the prompts of the system.

A receipt confirming the fact of payment of the state duty, as well as an application in the form 2-2-Accounting (on the issuance of a duplicate certificate) and a passport should be submitted to the authorized body of the Federal Tax Service. This can be done personally, through a trusted person (in this case, you will also need a power of attorney) or by sending documents by mail. The deadline for completing the procedure is five working days from the date of receipt of the documents by representatives of the Federal Tax Service.

Note: if the taxpayer wishes, information about the TIN can be entered by tax authorities in the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation (marked on the 18th page). To do this, you need to come to the department of the Federal Tax Service at the place of registration, having a passport and a TIN certificate with you. The operation takes no more than 15 minutes.

As can be seen from this article, it is possible to obtain a TIN certificate only at an authorized division of the Federal Tax Service, and it is impossible to print the document yourself by number. An application for the assignment of an identifier and the initial issuance of a certificate can be filed via the Internet using special electronic services.

Any citizen of Russia has the right to apply to the tax authority and make a mark on the 18th page of the Russian passport indicating the TIN.

The presence of a TIN in the passport of the Russian Federation makes it possible to simplify the procedure for confirming the compliance of information when drawing up various kinds of documents and transactions.

A mark indicating the TIN in the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation is made optional.

The next two are the number of the local inspection. After that comes six digits, which are the person's tax record number as a taxpayer. And the last two are control numbers, to check the correctness, which are calculated by special methods.

TIN is most often a mandatory requisite for paying receipts, bills, etc. But what if you need to specify the TIN of a specific person? In this article, we will look at how to find out the taxpayer identification number of an individual. Remember now. But it's still required.

Where to go to find out?

On the this moment There are several ways to determine the taxpayer identification number - both your own and someone else's.

The Federal Tax Service provides such a service. You need to contact the branch in your region with a passport. The tax office will give you the TIN you are interested in. Pay attention to the following if you find out your TIN without using the Internet.

In order not to waste time it is better to check home documentation and look for a certificate of registration there. If you were registered with the tax office, then the certificate, most likely, should be with you somewhere, and the required number is just indicated there.

And if you didn’t pass, then you simply cannot have a TIN. Then you need to contact the local tax office and write an application for registration. The procedure can be carried out both in the usual and urgent manner at a surcharge.

• website of the Federal Tax Service - https://service.nalog.ru/inn-others.do ;
• Gosuslugi website - https://www.gosuslugi.ru/pgu/fns/findInn.

The IFTS website has forms through which you can find out the TIN of individuals. In order to find out the taxpayer identification number of an individual, you need to fill out the appropriate form.

So, how to find out your TIN via the Internet using your passport? To do this, you need to enter your passport data and TIN, and after that - the data of the individual for whom you need to find out the number.

If the TIN assigned to the person who has the specified data is found in the database, the site will only issue a request number. With this number, you need to go to the local tax authority, taking identification documents with you.

In addition, you must have with you a receipt for payment for the relevant service. The amount to be paid is about 100 rubles. Representatives of the authorities may not pay for this service, but must have a document confirming their affiliation with the authorities.

The form presented on the public services website almost completely corresponds to the form from the Federal Tax Service. It's called "Find out your TIN". Based on the name, you can understand that it is better not to use this form in order to find out someone else's TIN. Anyway, after that you will have to contact the tax office to get the number itself.

You must show your passport there. And if on the website of the Federal Tax Service you need to fill out an additional form, which indicates the information of the person who recognizes the TIN, then it is not in public services.

An employee, seeing that the passport data of the bearer and the person to whom the TIN belongs, may simply refuse to issue information. So, in order to find out someone else's TIN, it is still better to use the form on the website of the Federal Tax Service, the link to which is given above.

Action algorithm

Find out TIN by passport and documents

To obtain a TIN physical. persons offline, as such, a complex algorithm of actions does not need to be performed. It is required to contact the tax authority, where the responsible person, upon presentation of his documents and the provision of passport data of the individual of interest, will be issued with my TIN.

To find out this number online, you need to follow these steps:

1. Go to the website of the FTS.
2. In the lists of services, find "Find out the TIN" and go to this page.
3. Choose whose TIN you need to find out - yours or someone else's.
4. For convenience, we will divide the next steps into two lists - for our own and for someone else's TIN.

To view your taxpayer identification number, you need to perform the following steps after doing the above.

1. Click the "Find out your TIN" button.
2. Fill in information about yourself.
3. Enter the numbers from the picture.
4. Click "Submit Request".

If all the data is entered correctly and your TIN is in the FTS database, the site will immediately display it on the screen.

To find out the TIN of another individual you need to perform the following steps after going to the page of the service "Find out the TIN" on the website of the Federal Tax Service:

1. Click the "Find someone else's TIN" button.
2. Depending on who you are (individual, legal entity, representative of the authorities), select the appropriate line in the "Applicant" column. For each type of applicant, the forms are different. We will consider the option with the applicant - an individual.
3. Fill out the form "Information about the applicant - an individual". Here you need to enter information about yourself.
4. Fill out the form "Information about the requested person in respect of whom the request for the presence of a TIN is sent." Here you enter information about the individual whose TIN you want to know.
5. Enter the numbers from the picture.
6. Click the "Submit Request" button.
7. The system will provide information about the presence of a TIN. If a person has been assigned a taxpayer identification number, a request number can be obtained.
8. Pay for the service, keep the receipt.
9. Come to the local tax authority and present the request number previously obtained on the website, your passport and payment receipt.
10. After completing these steps, the responsible person will issue you the TIN of the person of interest.

The required data about the applicant and the requested person are almost identical.

Taxpayer identification number (only for the applicant and only in the case of obtaining someone else's TIN).

• f. and. about;
• Date of Birth;
• Place of Birth;
• what document certifies the identity (passport, birth certificate, etc.);
• information about the document, depending on the type of document itself.

Find out TIN by last name and address

We are talking about the ability to find out the taxpayer identification number without having his full passport data, but knowing only the f. and. about. or residential address. This service is not provided by the FTS. At least, there is definitely no online form for such a search.

You can contact the tax authority and ask for their TIN by last name, first name and patronymic of the person. But in fact, the likelihood that you will be given it if you do not provide documents confirming that you have the right to receive it in this way is extremely small. It is still advisable to find out the rest of the passport data of the individual of interest.

Also, the method can be a service on the website of the Federal Tax Service, which is designed to find out the TIN of an individual entrepreneur. The bottom line is that they are not registered as legal entities, and therefore there is a chance that you can find out the TIN of the person of interest in this way.

The algorithm of actions in order to find out the TIN in this way:

1. Go to the page: http://egrul.nalog.ru/.
2. In the "Search Criteria" field, select "Individual Entrepreneur / Peasant Farm".
3. Enter the full name and area where the individual lives.
4. Enter the numbers from the picture.

If such an individual entrepreneur is registered in this area, the system will issue his TIN as a result of the search.

However, it is worth considering that the information there is limited - only TIN and OGRNIP. So there it will not be possible to check whether this person is the right one.

In the case when several individual entrepreneurs are registered in the region with the requested f. and. o., the system will provide information about all of them and it will be impossible to understand which one you need.

According to SNILS

As such, there is no service in order to find out the TIN by SNILS. In order to find out if I have a TIN online, you need to enter data about the document, and SNILS is not a document. However, if you know SNILS, then you can also know f. and. about. person, which means you can try to find out the TIN from this data. The method is above.

Find out the notary's TIN

You can first find out what taxpayer identification number a notary has from him. If this is not possible, you should just look at the seal set by him. The seal must indicate the TIN of the notary who put it.

Information about this number is inside the seal, on the very last lap.

Yes, the numbers on the print are small, but with a magnifying glass they can be disassembled.

1. If you are not sure that the counterparty provides a genuine taxpayer identification number, it is very easy to check this.
2. To do this, follow these steps.
3. Go to the page http://egrul.nalog.ru/.
4. Select "Individual Entrepreneur / KFH".
5. Enter it f. and. about. and choose the area where he lives.
6. Enter the numbers from the picture.
7. Click "Find".

The system will issue a list of individual entrepreneurs with relevant data in this area and their TIN. Thus, you will have the opportunity to verify its authenticity. The service is free. In addition, the reverse action can also be performed there - find out f. and. about. and region of the entrepreneur.

For a foreign citizen

You can carry out such an operation without problems. To do this, you need to know the passport data of a foreign citizen.

You can break through the TIN again on the website of the Federal Tax Service, in the same form where we can find out the TIN for Russians (link - https://service.nalog.ru/inn-others.do). Just in the column "Type of identity document" you need to select a document owned by a foreigner. They may be:

• passport of a foreign citizen;
• birth certificate of a foreign citizen;
• residence permit of a foreign citizen;
• temporary residence permit in the Russian Federation.

The rest of the algorithm is completely identical to the TIN search algorithm for an individual using passport data, which we cited in this article.

In conclusion, we can conclude that it is still easier to find out the taxpayer identification number using a special service on the website of the Federal Tax Service than to personally carry out the entire procedure in the tax authorities.

Yes, if you find out someone else’s TIN, you still have to go there, but you won’t have to dictate your and other people’s passport data - you just have to show required documents and the request number received on the site.

To ensure that the procedure does not require extra effort you should initially find out all the necessary passport data of an individual, since the form on the site is designed specifically for this data.

As for your TIN, in order not to forget it in the future and not resort to such methods, you can ask the tax service to add it to page 18 of your passport.

This is the right of every citizen of the Russian Federation who is registered with the tax authorities.
