Small and medium-sized businesses will be given a discount on state duty

Small and medium-sized businesses will be given a discount on state duty. The bill has been submitted for consideration.

New small and medium-sized businesses are offered to provide discounts on the payment of state duties. We are talking about benefits for newly created SMEs, both organizations and individual entrepreneurs. The corresponding bill has already been submitted to the State Duma on August 3 for consideration, registered under the number 176000-8 and published on the official website of the lower house of the Russian parliament. Benefits apply to the payment of state duties when performing legally significant actions.

The bill was introduced by a group of authors, consisting of two senators and one deputy. It proposes to take the following measures:

amend Art. 333.35 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, which approves the categories of beneficiaries for the payment of state duty;
supplement the article with part 5 and provide benefits for the payment of the state fee to newly created legal entities and individual entrepreneurs;
to provide benefits, you must be included in the state register of small and medium-sized businesses;
the exemption applies to the performance of all legally significant actions in which a fee is paid;
you can use it within two years from the moment of passing the state registration procedure with the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation;
the fee is paid using a coefficient of 0.5, that is, the discount will be 50%.
It is provided that the law comes into force from the moment of its official publication. However, it will only apply from January 1 of the following year. So far, the draft law has been sent for consideration to the committees of the State Duma of the Russian Federation.

The explanatory note notes that such a decision will help reduce the financial burden in the context of existing anti-Russian sanctions and restrictions. The benefit, according to the authors, should contribute to the development of entrepreneurship in the country and the fulfillment of important tasks in the economy.

In addition to the explanatory note, a financial and economic justification for the draft law is also presented. The authors admit that the adoption of the normative act will lead to losses in the federal budget, however, rather insignificant, only 4%. In addition, the new rules will not affect the obligation to pay state duties for other entities. However, according to the initiators of the introduction of the discount, one should take into account the difficult economic situation in the country and provide certain preferences to start-up businesses.
