Is it possible to obtain an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate by a person’s last name?

Why and which individuals need to be checked?

Information about the integrity of an individual is useful in many business situations. For example, banks and microfinance organizations need to check potential borrowers, and employers need to check applicants. You may also encounter a one-day company with a professional chairman at the head - the track record and welfare of such people, as a rule, have nothing to do with the image of a successful businessman.

Verification of the director and founders of the counterparty

Checking an individual can be part of a comprehensive audit of a counterparty company: study the business reputation of the founders and managers of the counterparty and check them as individuals for financial difficulties and problems with the law. Personal troubles of management can adversely affect the future work of the entire enterprise, as well as its partners.

Verification of individual entrepreneurs

A similar check is useful when the counterparty is an individual entrepreneur . Get more information about the entrepreneur to form an idea of ​​​​the state of his affairs. This will help you anticipate possible risks and promptly refuse the services of an unreliable contractor.

Verification of applicants

Identify suspicious facts in the biography of the next candidate in advance - troubles with finances and the law, as well as the presence of your own business, so as not to mistakenly hire a troubled employee. Make sure that the information that the applicant has provided about himself is authentic. It is especially important to screen candidates for financially responsible positions, for example, drivers in logistics, and for leadership positions.

Checking the self-employed

Make sure the contractor is reliable and exclude a contractor with a bad reputation.

What is OKFS

OKFS is an all-Russian classifier of forms of ownership, part of the Unified Coding System of the Russian Federation. Its name reveals the content - it contains information about the form of ownership and owners of the enterprise. Knowing the code, you can find out whether the counterparty is a legal entity, individual entrepreneur or government agency.

Classification objects are established in accordance with Federal laws, the Constitution and the Civil Code. These are the forms of ownership:

• state;
• private;
• municipal.

All organizations, enterprises and institutions operating in Russia have the OKFS code. It changes when the organizational and legal form changes, state or foreign capital enters the ownership structure of the company, and the capital of Russian private enterprises enters enterprises registered and operating outside our country.

How to find out tax debt using TIN

Organizations, individual entrepreneurs and individuals, using TIN and various web services, can check the status of tax payments with the budget. Legal entities have this opportunity on the official website of the tax office in their personal accounts.

If you are not registered on the site, look for information about your debt in the electronic services section nalog.ru . In the services menu, go to “Transparent Business”, then select who you want to check - an organization or an individual entrepreneur. Click the “Advanced Search” button and select “Yes” for the parameter “Existence of tax debts exceeding 1000 rubles, which were sent to the bailiffs for collection.” This resource shows whether the company has a debt of more than 1,000 rubles as of a specified date, but it does not provide information about the specific amount of debt. You can clarify its value by going to the Services/Bank of Enforcement Proceedings section at fssprus.ru . Here you will not need a TIN: to create a request, indicate the name of the organization and the region in which it operates.

Individuals can use online services that allow you to find out and pay tax debts using your TIN:

• follow the link https://lkfl.nalog.ru/lk/ - personal account for individual taxpayers;
• in the mobile application of the Federal Tax Service “Taxes FL”;
• in the “Tax Debt” section of your personal account on the “Government Services” portal;

Why do you need to check your counterparty?

The Tax Code obliges taxpayers to document the validity of expenses and deductions (Article 54.1, Article 172, Article 252 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation).
In most cases, such documents come from counterparties. Therefore, when choosing a business partner, it is necessary to evaluate not only the terms of the planned transaction and its commercial attractiveness, but also the business reputation and solvency of the potential counterparty, as well as the risk of non-fulfillment of its obligations both under the contract and to the budget. In turn, the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate, when carrying out control measures, has the right to question the legality and validity of reducing the tax liability (determination of the Judicial Collegium for Economic Disputes of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated July 20, 2020 No. 306-ES19-27836). Determine the likelihood of an on-site tax audit and receive recommendations on the tax burden

In order to successfully resist the claims of the tax authorities, verification of the counterparty is required before signing the contract. In particular, you need to make sure that the party to the contract is a real organization that can be contacted without problems; it has the resources necessary to fulfill its obligations (production capacity, equipment, personnel) and relevant experience. At the same time, judicial practice proceeds from the fact that the depth of checks depends on the significance of the transaction: the larger the contract, the more carefully it is necessary to study the counterparty (determination of the Judicial Collegium for Economic Disputes of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation dated May 14, 2020 No. 307-ES19-27597).

Thus, before concluding a one-time small transaction, it is enough to make sure that the counterparty is registered in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and can be contacted at the address specified in the register, and an authorized person acts on his behalf.

The exception is situations when the terms of the planned contract deviate significantly from the market level, or their services are offered by a company or individual entrepreneur that does not have experience in executing similar transactions. In these cases, it makes sense to further find out whether the potential counterparty has the necessary resources, debts to the budget and other business partners, study its business reputation, etc. The same thorough checks should be carried out when purchasing real estate or other high-value assets, or before entering into long-term contracts.

The information presented in the report is based on data from official government sources:

Methods of checking an organization for reliability

Today, there are several verification mechanisms available. The easiest way is to use paid services that aggregate all publicly available data. Comprehensive information about a potential counterparty will be provided quickly, in an accessible and visual form. At the same time, some of these services will also conduct an initial analysis of the collected information; They will tell you what points you need to pay attention to and give a preliminary assessment of the safety of the transaction.

You can find out how much taxes the counterparty paid and check its financial condition in the “Kontur.Focus” service. Connect to the service

An alternative option involves independently collecting information using free databases of government agencies and other open sources. In particular, information about the counterparty can be found on the websites of the Federal Tax Service, Rosreestr, arbitration courts, bailiffs, etc. It would also be a good idea to use regular search engines to assess the business activity of your future partner.

Finally, there is another way to check. It involves obtaining all the necessary information directly from the counterparty or persons related to him. This option is usually used in addition to the first or second. From the company with which you plan to cooperate, you can request a copy of the charter, information about the manager’s passport details, information from tax returns, as well as real reviews (recommendations) of people who have dealt with it.
