When interacting with individuals and legal entities, the state collects various kinds of fees and fines that go to its income. Individuals and sometimes legal entities pay these fees through Sberbank branches on receipts. In the event that the amount was transferred by mistake, you can return the payment according to the receipt by contacting the tax office, which keeps records of all payments received by the state.
Instructions
Step 1
Write a statement addressed to the head of the tax office asking for a refund of the erroneously transferred amount or part of it. Attach a copy of your passport to your application. If the entire amount was transferred by mistake, then attach to the application the originals of payment documents confirming the fact of transfer. In the event that you want to return only part of the money, attach a copy of the receipt, which must be certified by the settlement organization that made this payment.
Step 2
In the application, be sure to indicate the details of your personal or bank account, your postal address or e-mail address, contact phone number. To receive money to a valid account with Sberbank, attach a photocopy of the first sheet of your savings book in the package of documents. If you are a trustee acting on behalf of the company, attach a copy of the power of attorney certified by a notary to the package of documents.
Step 3
Art. 333.40 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation regulates the return of funds that were paid by a payment order or a receipt from Sberbank. You will receive your money in the event that more was paid than provided for by the current legislation, paid for actions that are not subject to a state fee, or you mistakenly transferred the amount for actions that you did not need. Use one of these phrases in the text of your application as the basis for refunding your receipt.
Step 4
According to clause 3 of article 333.40 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, you can write an application for the return of erroneously transferred money within three years from the date of payment of this amount. They must return it to you no later than one month from the date of submission of the application. In the event that all the necessary documents are not attached to the application, the tax authority must, no later than 5 working days, send a notification to your address and indicate which requirements you have not met. Complete the package of documents and expect the receipt of money to the bank account indicated in the application.
