The Government Decree in the latest edition came into force in January 2016. The main changes affected:

  • concessions in the form of tax holidays for individual entrepreneurs;

The same Resolution, which came into force in January of this year 2018, established a list of long-life products for which no replacement is provided for the buyer (consumer), as well as a non-food group of goods of improper type that cannot be returned or exchanged.

A commission fee has been established, rules for compliance with epidemiological standards, etc. in retail trade organizations and public catering establishments have been prescribed. The full list can be found on official thematic resources or download the full text for free online on our page.

Trade of non-food products in the Russian Federation 2018

The updated rules are designed to improve the quality of customer service for entrepreneurs (IEs). They established special regulations for regulatory authorities. But the basic standards, including preparatory work, remained unchanged:

  • products must be of the proper type and reach the shelves only after sorting and thorough quality checks;
  • products must have price tags;
  • the seller must have a health certificate, a hat and special clothing;
  • If there are weighing products, there must be scales at the workplace; for some groups, a cash register is required.

The store sales rules oblige sellers/managers to set up a buyer's corner, which must contain a book of complaints and suggestions, licenses for groups of goods subject to licensing, and must also contain information about the operation of the outlet and the protection of consumer rights. Upon request, the seller is obliged to provide sanitary documents for any product.


Calculation of UTII in 2018 for individual entrepreneurs, example retail trade

Calculation of UTII ( Single tax for imputed income) for retail trade for individual entrepreneurs consists of five indicators that are correctly multiplied among themselves:

  • BD – base yield is 1.8 thousand per sq.m., provided the area exceeds 5 sq.m.;
  • FP is a physical indicator; the size of the usable area (retail space) is used as it;
  • NB – in this option equals 15%;
  • K1 - the deflator coefficient is established by Government Decree on an annual basis, for 2017-2018 it is 1.798;
  • K2 - the adjustment coefficient has a regional reference and can range from 0.05 to a whole unit.

The formula for calculating tax for one month is as follows: BD*FP*NB*K1*K2=UTII.

Rules for trade in alcoholic beverages from January 1, 2018

These rules for the sale of alcoholic products dictate their own rules, starting from delivery/reception and ending with its sale. When accepting goods of alcoholic and low-alcohol products, the seller/other person responsible for accepting the goods is required to check the products for compliance with the invoice (quality, quantity, integrity of excise taxes, condition, etc. parameters). Goods must be provided with price tags with complete and accessible information for the buyer, stored in appropriate conditions, in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations, etc.

Alcoholic and low-alcohol products can only be sold in stationary premises intended for retail or wholesale trade. When selling goods in this group, mandatory scanning is required (all barcodes must be accessible) and consumers must be issued receipts (i.e., mandatory sales through cash machine). The sale of alcohol from January 1, 2018, sales time is also limited: retail sales are prohibited from 23.00 to 8.00.

EGAIS is prescribed to monitor and regulate compliance with rules and requirements in accordance with the Government Decree, which began to come into force in January of this year (responsibility for exercising control lies). In order to simplify the tasks, entrepreneurs (IEs) were required to connect to public access through a special program that is connected via a computer (cash register). These rules are an innovation not only for the Russian Federation; similar norms are also contained in the legislation of the countries of the former CIS: in the Republic of Belarus, in Ukraine, etc.

The standards established by the actual trade law do not apply to relationships formed as a result of:

  • Foreign trade;
  • Organization of tenders;
  • Sales of products in retail markets;
  • Acquisition and sale of shares, real estate, thermal and electrical energy.

Amendments to the trade law

The last significant amendments to the Federal Trade Law were made on July 3, 2016. The amending document was the Federal Law “On Amendments to the Federal Law “On the Fundamentals of State Regulation of Trade Activities in the Russian Federation” and the Code of the Russian Federation on Administrative Offenses” N 273-FZ.

According to the actual amendments, the text paragraph 4 of article 9 states that a business entity may be awarded a monetary reward for carrying out the necessary operations to provide food products. The amount of remuneration is determined and agreed upon by the trading parties.

Amendments made to article 13 of a valid Federal Law, the prohibitions imposed in relation to the host entity are clarified. A business enterprise supplying food products is not authorized to:

  • Violate the provisions of the current regulatory act “On the Protection of Competition”;
  • Unlawfully increase or decrease prices;
  • Prohibit the counterparty from cooperating with other suppliers;
  • Block other suppliers from entering the market.

Deferment of payment under the trade law

According to the amendments made to part 7 of the article under consideration, its text stipulates that the deadline for payment for food products is determined as follows:

  • Products with a short shelf life (up to 10 days) paid no later than 8 working days from the date of delivery;
  • Food with an average shelf life (from 10 to 30 days) paid within 25 calendar days;
  • Products whose expiration date exceeds 30 days, must be paid within 40 calendar days from the date of receipt.

In comparison with last year’s indicators, the maximum terms for installment payments for goods already delivered have been reduced by 5-10 calendar days.

The main criterion for installment plans is the timing acceptable storage supplied products. Thus, the relationship between the supplier and the recipient becomes more transparent, which makes the trading process itself better.

Outbound trade

Outbound trade is an activity strictly regulated by this regulatory act. First of all, the mobile structure on which the goods are located should not interfere with vehicle traffic and pose a danger to the health and lives of customers.

The seller must have a certificate of conformity or a declaration that allows him to engage in trading activities. In most cases, all necessary documentation is provided to the seller by the supplier of goods or the owner of the mobile shop.

The mobile structure must comply with technical and sanitary standards. In case of violations, the person carrying out activities in the area in question will called to account in accordance with the provisions of valid law.

Norms and standards in choosing a land plot

When constructing a new retail pavilion, it is necessary to check the Sanitary Regulations and Regulations for 2020 at the stage of selecting a land plot. The main requirements include:

  • the area under the site is not swampy;
  • lack of nearby garbage dumps;
  • the absence of nearby animal breeding organizations and processing enterprises, etc.

SNiP 2.04.01-85 regulates the premises of the food products pavilion in the area of ​​the water supply system. Based of this act It is prohibited to erect a new building without internal system sewerage. If the store is located, for example, in a residential building, then its sewerage system should not be combined with the sewerage system of the house.

Also, based on SNiP No. 2.09.04.87, standards and requirements for arranging “cabins” for employees must be observed. Often they are easily followed when constructing an object. In 2020, these norms and standards continue to apply without changes.
