In case of loss of the EGRIP certificate, you should contact the tax office for re-issuance of the specified document. In this case, you will need to pre-pay the state fee for the provision of this public service.
The certificate of state registration of a specific person as an entrepreneur is one of the main documents that is constantly used in current activities, is the main confirmation of the existence of the corresponding status. Individual entrepreneurs do not have constituent documents, therefore, in almost all cases, a USRIP certificate is required, the number of which is indicated in contracts with counterparties, on the entrepreneur's seal. The certificate itself, its notarized copies often need to be submitted to government agencies, where you have to apply for various reasons. That is why it is not recommended to carry out activities without this document, and if it is lost, you should immediately contact the tax authorities.
What is the correct way to apply for a re-issuance of a certificate?
An entrepreneur should apply for re-issuance of a USRIP certificate to the tax office, where he is registered as a subject of the relevant activity. When applying, a personally completed and signed application is submitted, in which the entrepreneur indicates the need to re-issue the certificate of state registration. A receipt, payment order or other documents confirming the payment of the state duty to the budget is attached to the application. Re-issuance of a certificate, like the state registration of an individual entrepreneur, is considered a public service, which is provided only upon payment of such a fee.
Peculiarities of applying for re-issuance of a certificate
It should be noted that the amount of the fee for the re-issuance of a certificate of state registration of an individual entrepreneur is insignificant. The current tax legislation defines it as a percentage of the amount of the duty paid for the state registration of an entrepreneur. If in the latter case a citizen pays eight hundred rubles, then when applying for a certificate in connection with its loss, the amount of the fee will be only twenty percent of the named amount or one hundred and sixty rubles. If necessary, the entrepreneur can instruct any other person to sign the application, interact with the tax authorities and obtain a certificate, but such a person will have to confirm his own powers, which can only be done with a notarized power of attorney.
