The simplest way to determine the tax debt according to the TIN is to register in the special service "Personal account of the taxpayer". Oral and written applications to the tax office at the place of their registration are considered alternative options for obtaining the necessary information.
Determination of tax debt by TIN can be carried out in several ways, the simplest and most efficient of which is registration in the "Personal account of the taxpayer". This service is posted on the official website of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation (section "Information Services"), however, to gain access to it, you will need to perform certain preparatory steps. After that, to obtain up-to-date information on the status of settlements with the budget, it will be enough to go to the page of this service, enter your own TIN and password, or use the electronic signature key. In practice, this service provides the taxpayer with greater opportunities than the usual receipt of information about debts.
How to get access to the "Taxpayer's Personal Account" service?
In order to remotely obtain information about the debt, the taxpayer must first obtain a password for access to the service “Personal account of the taxpayer”. The login for the specified access is the individual tax number of the citizen indicated in the corresponding TIN assignment certificate. The data for accessing the service is issued on a special registration card, which can be obtained from any tax office in the country. If the taxpayer previously issued a certificate of the electronic signature verification key, then no additional steps are required, and you can enter the service using this certificate.
Alternative Ways to Obtain Debt Information
Written and oral applications to the tax inspectorate at the place of registration of the taxpayer are alternative ways of obtaining information about the taxpayer's debt. Relevant information can be provided to a citizen on the basis of a written request registered with the office of the inspection. In addition, you can make a verbal request (for example, call by phone) to the specialist of the relevant department of the tax inspection. Information about tax debts is confidential, therefore, in order to obtain it, the taxpayer is usually asked to appear with a passport at the inspection. In this case, the presence of a TIN is not a prerequisite, although this requisite usually simplifies the search for the necessary information by a tax inspection specialist.
