Land tax is a local one, described in detail in Chapter 31 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation and is mandatory for payment in regions whose authorities have adopted a regulatory legal act introducing this tax. Land tax for individual entrepreneurs is a fairly broad topic, but we will try to talk about it as informatively as possible for you.

Land law in the Russian Federation - payers, tax base, benefits, problems

Payers of land tax are absolutely all organizations and ordinary people who own land. In Moscow and St. Petersburg, the nuances of land tax are established by the local authorities themselves. Local regional authorities, on the basis of the Federal Law, issue local regulations on land tax, which establish deadlines, tax payment procedures, reporting periods, benefits, etc.

Federal Land Tax Law

Land tax was introduced by Federal Law No. 141-FZ of November 29, 2004, in 2010 in Articles 396, 397 and 398 (which determine the procedure for calculating land tax and advance payments thereon, the procedure and terms for paying the tax and advance payments, the procedure and terms submission of a tax return) Federal Law No. 229-FZ has been amended. Chapter 31 of the Tax Code spells out all the nuances relating to land tax, with all amendments and changes.

Tax base for land tax

The tax base (that is, the characteristics of the object on the basis of which the tax is calculated) is the cadastral value of the land plot for which the tax will be paid.

Organizations and individual entrepreneurs determine it themselves, based on information from the state land cadastre; for individuals, the tax base is determined by the tax service, based on information provided by state bodies from the same register.

If the land plot is in common ownership, the tax base is divided equally between all owners; if the land plot is in common shared ownership, the tax base is divided in proportion to the shares of the owners.

Land tax for individual entrepreneurs

Individual entrepreneurs are required to pay land tax in the same way as everyone else if their land is used in business activities.

That is, if an individual entrepreneur, for example, is engaged in agriculture and owns land on which he grows potatoes for sale, he is obliged to pay land tax. But only if this land plot belongs to an individual entrepreneur by right of ownership, the right of permanent (perpetual) use or the right of lifelong inheritable possession, but if the land is leased or for gratuitous fixed-term use, then the land tax is paid by its owner.
An individual entrepreneur is required to pay land tax, regardless of the taxation system he uses.

Land tax for individuals

Individuals, owners of land plots, as well as organizations and individual entrepreneurs (if they own land by right of ownership, the right of permanent (perpetual) use or the right of lifelong inheritable possession) are payers of land tax. The tax amount is a percentage of the cadastral value of the land (determined by a special commission).

Tax period for land tax

According to the legislative framework, the tax period is set for a calendar year (both for organizations, individual entrepreneurs, and individuals). The deadlines for tax payment are set by local governments; citizens must pay the tax based on notifications sent from the relevant organizations.

Calculation of land tax

For individuals, tax is calculated exclusively by the tax authorities; organizations and individual entrepreneurs calculate their land tax themselves.

Both advance payments for land tax and the tax are paid in accordance with the established tax period to the local budget (of the territory to which the land plot belongs).

Land tax debt

If you suddenly have doubts about debts or want to check your accounting, the Federal Service of the Russian Federation has introduced a new online service: the ability to find out and calculate debt using a special form. You will only need to enter your first and last name, as well as an identification code.
By the way, this service helps not only to find out the debt for land tax, but also for property, transport and personal income taxes.

Budget classification codes

When paying land tax (as well as any other), it is necessary to correctly indicate all the details, in particular budget classification codes. The BCC for land tax for individuals for 2013 and 2014 can be easily found on the Internet on websites dedicated to accounting and taxes.

Tax benefits for land tax

p>The law provides for tax breaks and tax deductions for some taxpayers.

Benefits for paying land tax

The fifth paragraph of Article 391 of the Tax Code states that a tax benefit in the amount of 10,000 rubles is received by the following citizens:

  • Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of the Russian Federation, full holders of the Order of Glory;
  • disabled people of disability group I and disability group II (if it was established before January 1, 2004);
  • disabled since childhood;
  • veterans and disabled people of the Great Patriotic War and other military operations;
  • individuals who, as part of special risk units, took direct part in testing nuclear and thermonuclear weapons, eliminating accidents at nuclear installations at weapons and military facilities;
  • individuals who were exposed to radiation as a result of the Chernobyl disaster and the liquidation of its consequences, as a result of the accident at the Mayak production facility and the discharge of radioactive waste into the Techa River, as a result of nuclear tests at the Semipalatinsk test site;
  • individuals who received or suffered radiation sickness or became disabled as a result of interaction with any types of nuclear installations.

Exemption from land tax

Article 395 of the Tax Code contains a list of nine active clauses, according to which the following are exempt from land tax (of course, subject to the intended use of land):

  • religious organizations;
  • organizations and institutions of the penal system of the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation;
  • organizations that own areas along which state highways pass;
  • public organizations of disabled people (provided that disabled people make up at least 80% of the organization);
  • organization of folk arts and crafts;
  • shipbuilding organizations that have resident status in an industrial and production special economic zone;
  • resident organizations of the special economic zone;
  • organizations falling under the Federal Law “On the Skolkovo Innovation Center”;
  • individuals - representatives of small peoples of Siberia, the North and the Far East of the Russian Federation. Communities of such peoples.

How to reduce land tax

This can only be done by reducing the cadastral value of the land. This can be done not only by the owner of the site, but also by the land user, tenant and even subtenant.

To change the cadastral value of a land plot, you need to contact the arbitration court and provide there a package of documents from an application for revision of the cadastral value to conclusions and reports on the value of the taxable property and real estate (if there is one on the land plot).

The second way to reduce land tax: contact the commission for resolving disputes about the results of determining the cadastral value (within six months after the cadastral valuation).

Which areas are not subject to taxation?

Land tax is established on specific land plots of legal entities and individuals. There are a number of areas that are not subject to tax, for example, lands such as:

  • occupied by cultural and archaeological heritage sites, nature reserves;
  • provided for the needs of defense and security of the state, as well as for customs services;
  • provided to forest and water funds;
  • withdrawn from circulation.

Tax rates

The amount of land tax depends on the intended purpose of the land, as well as on the status of its owner (beneficiary or not). If the above about benefits and exemptions from payment does not apply to you, and you use the land plot for:

  • Agriculture;
  • housing or future housing;
  • garden, vegetable garden, personal subsidiary plot,

you will pay 0.3 percent of the cadastral value of the land once a year.

In other cases, 1.5 percent is paid.

Local governments can establish a differentiated tax rate. For land plots acquired for housing construction, during the design and construction period, taxation is carried out taking into account the coefficient.

Let us recall that land tax is paid by entrepreneurs under any taxation system, that is, land tax under the simplified tax system or UTII is paid in the same way as under the general system.

Recalculation of land tax

Cadastral valuation of land is carried out every five years. If, as a result of the revaluation, the taxpayer’s situation has improved, you can contact the tax service with an application for recalculation of the land tax.
New data is considered valid from the first of January of the new year, therefore, you can ask for a tax recalculation, for example, for the previous year, because recalculation regulations have retroactive effect if they improve the taxpayer’s situation.

Land tax problems

Due to the fact that the tax base is determined according to the cadastral value of land plots, and many municipalities provide information about objects of taxation and legal holders of land plots to the tax services at the wrong time or not in full, individuals suffer, for whom the tax amount is calculated by the tax services. .

Certain problems also arise when calculating taxes on plots where multi-apartment residential buildings are built: often cadastral registration of such plots has not been carried out, and apartment owners do not have documents for the land.

If you think that there are any problems with your land tax, feel free to open the Tax Code, Chapter 31 “Land Tax”, and do not hesitate to contact government authorities with complaints and statements.

Land tax in 2012

From January 1, 2012, on the basis of paragraph 11 of Art. 395 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, shipbuilding organizations (see paragraph above on exemption from land tax) do not pay land tax. If, of course, they use the land for ship repair and industrial premises.

Also in 2011, the cadastral value of land was recalculated, which allows those taxpayers whose situation has improved in accordance with new information to apply for recalculation of land tax.

In 2014, a new real estate tax is planned, which will replace both land and property taxes. The tax will be mandatory for both legal entities and individuals, and will also be established based on the cadastral value of the property.

The new tax was planned to be introduced on January 1, 2013, but now the deadline has been postponed until next year.

As you already understand, understanding what concerns land tax in the tax code is not so difficult if you spend a few hours of your time and carefully study the relevant articles.

Revision of the document taking into account
changes and additions prepared
JSC "Kodeks"

The obligation to periodically contribute funds to the state treasury arises among those who own or use it. Organizations that have land on their balance sheet must also pay. The same rules apply to areas that... Articles in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation regulate the order of transfers and their total amount.

Fines or penalties are assessed for those who did not pay the required amount on time. Proceedings with bailiffs are opened if the evasion of payment is prolonged.

Amendments to legislation

If we look at the legislation as of 2015-2016, there have been no significant changes. Perhaps the determination of the tax rate. Now this issue is within the competence of bodies related to municipalities.

But there are exceptions to the rules; the tax does not apply to them:

  1. Water bodies belonging to state property.
  2. Plots of land under which there are apartment buildings.
  3. The part related to the forest fund.
  4. Areas containing objects recognized as valuable to the state.
  5. Objects with limited circulation or completely removed from it.

Local authorities have the right to introduce their own restrictions on payment for certain objects. But most often such rights are used in relation to lands owned by enterprises and of value to the city.

The procedure for calculating land taxes

Land tax is calculated taking into account. The latter is determined by the state on January 1 of the year, to which payment is made. Calculation with an estimated cost is carried out for those who are paying for the first time.

Individuals should not have problems calculating taxes. Representatives of the tax authorities decide everything for them.

In the form of registered or regular letters, receipts are sent with the necessary details, indicating the exact amount. In this case, there is no liability if the amount is determined incorrectly.

But entrepreneurs and heads of organizations must calculate everything on their own. But in this case, mistakes are also subject to penalties from the state.

Special coefficients are applied to calculate the tax. They vary depending on what

  1. 0,3%. For agricultural lands and objects used by owners of subsidiary plots.
  2. 1,5%. For other categories of land.

It is better to clarify the individual coefficient size in advance with the territorial tax service. After all, the legislation provides municipal services with the right to change it at their own discretion. You can refer to the official website of the organization.

Accountants should always have a standard calculation formula at hand. Problems may begin for those who have recently started work.

What data must be multiplied to find the correct sum?

  1. Land area.
  2. Set bet according to odds.
  3. Cost per square meter according to the cadastre.

You can use online calculators. For calculation, they require entering only data from the cadastral passport. It is issued after the site is completed. This document is also necessary for those who are interested in registering property.

About benefits, tax periods and rates

The tax period is one calendar year, according to paragraph 1 of Art. 393 Tax Code of the Russian Federation. For land plots, a general rate is set equal to 0,3% .

When calculating taxes, the inspectorate can apply benefits to certain categories of citizens. For example, one taxpayer may be given a discount of 10,000 rubles or more. Who is entitled to the benefit?

  1. For those who have suffered radiation sickness or received it as a result of any type of work related to nuclear installations.
  2. Individuals who have taken part in testing nuclear and thermonuclear weapons.
  3. Individuals eligible to receive additional support from the state.
  4. Veterans and disabled people of military operations, WWII.
  5. Disabled people with groups 1 and 2, disabled children.
  6. Full Knights of the Order of Glory.
  7. Hero of the Russian Federation.
  8. Heroes of the USSR.

A number of organizations can also count on benefits. Companies can study Article 395 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation to find out about the current rules that apply to them.

About the payment procedure

Representative bodies of municipal government issue special decrees that set deadlines. During these deadlines, taxpayers must transfer all amounts due. The laws of Moscow and St. Petersburg are also needed to establish rules in this area.

November 1 following the expired tax period– deadline for payment of tax by individuals who do not have the status of individual entrepreneurs.

Citizens transfer funds according to tax notices sent from the Federal Tax Service. The directions themselves may contain information no more than for three tax periods, preceding their filling. All taxpayers receive such notices no later than 30 days before the payment deadline.

The main thing is to remember that taxes are calculated only based on the cadastral value of plots. The use of other tax bases is unacceptable. Information about this cost is usually stored in .

It is necessary to contact in case of missing cadastral value. There, an application is submitted with a request to send a specialist to conduct an assessment. Real estate documents along with a copy of the passport are required attachments to this application form.

Specialists are engaged in drawing up real estate plans. They issue not only a cadastral diagram, but also a technical one. Information about the cost is necessary for concluding any transactions and imposition on a specific site. For example, those who use land as a source of communication with bank employees cannot do without it.
