The check of the counterparty for the OGRN is carried out by contacting the bodies of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation. The implementation of this procedure before the conclusion of the contract helps to ensure the accuracy of the information provided by the future partner.
Modern entrepreneurs can check their counterparties with minimal information about them. This check helps to increase the reliability of the partner, since the accuracy of the registration data and documents submitted by him will be confirmed by the tax authorities. At the same time, it is possible to check not only organizations, but also individual entrepreneurs. If the results of this procedure, expressed in the form of an extract, are not needed for submission to any state body, then free and prompt methods of obtaining the necessary information can be used. If the extract is needed for submission to third parties, then it is recommended to apply for its official version to the tax office, for which you will need to pay a state fee in advance.
Getting help information about a counterparty
The simplest and fastest verification method is considered to be the use of the electronic service of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation. To obtain information about a specific person, you should go to the main page of the site of this service, go to the section "Electronic services" and find a service for checking counterparties. On the page of this service, you will need to enter the OGRN in a special field. You can find out the OGRN of the counterparty by viewing the documents submitted by him, and this requisite is usually indicated on the seal. After entering the necessary data and a confirming digital code, you should download the statement in relation to the person of interest (uploaded in electronic form). The statement can be printed or viewed directly on a personal computer, there are no stamps on it, since the information is for reference only.
Obtaining an official statement
In some cases, information for checking a counterparty is required in the form of an official document. Tax inspectorates provide such information only on the basis of a written request, subject to the preliminary payment of the state fee. The tax authority will need to bring an application for the issuance of an extract with an attached document on the transfer of the amount of state duty to the budget. Within a few working days, an official statement will be prepared and handed over to the applicant. This document is stitched, numbered, certified by the official seal and signed by the head of the tax inspection, so it can be used for any purpose.
