Federal Tax Committee of Russian Federation has recently issued an order where standards of defining, whether the company is fact or fiction, are detailed. They were developed for the purpose of removing phony companies from the market and reducing probability of tax fraud.
At first instance, an inspection of a company place of registration is carried out. If for this purpose was chosen a building that cannot be maintained, or large quantity of legal entities are registered upon same address, it will definitely cause suspicions. Also rapid transit of a company that got notice of inspection will call attention of regulatory authorities.
Besides, taxmen will carefully track difference of information of a company in its statutory books and data specified in USRLE (United State Register of Legal Entities). In a case of difference in data additional inspection is possible.
Thereby, specialists don’t doubt that the part of underground market will find ways to adjust the standards. In particular, there’s a good likelihood of using in questionable transactions not only phony companies but old businesses as well. For that purpose it’s enough to buy a company that has positive records. If a criminal scheme gains profit, it’s worth spending money on such purchase.
