Information on state registration of legal entities is information about organizations that is included in a specialized register. The composition of such information, methods of obtaining it and other important points are described in this article.

Composition of information on state registration

The main law, which is devoted to the composition of information contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, is the Federal Law of 08.08.2001 No. 129-FZ “On State Registration of Legal Entities...” (hereinafter referred to as the Law on State Registration).

According to this law, the Unified State Register of Legal Entities contains the following information about legal entities:

• Name;

• location;
• information about the founders;
• organizational and legal form;
• method of education;
• information about legal succession;

• information about branches and representative offices.

This information is publicly available and is subject to release upon request of any interested party. The only condition for receiving it is payment of a fee for the provision of public services. If the information is provided in the form electronic document, then no payment is required.

However, the Unified State Register of Legal Entities also contains information that has limited access. This includes information about documents identifying an individual (Article 6 of the Law on State Registration).

IMPORTANT: the documents of a legal entity submitted during state registration are part of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and are contained in the registration file (Order of the Ministry of Taxes of Russia dated 06/08/2004 No. SAE-3-09/357). Copies of these documents are also issued upon request of any interested party.

Obtaining copies of documents is necessary to assess the integrity of the counterparty chosen for cooperation. It is their presence that will help to avoid tax liability in the event of a tax dispute, since the presence of these documents will be regarded by the court as a manifestation of due diligence (Resolution of the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Moscow District dated 02/06/2014 No. F05-18109/2013).

Methods for obtaining information about state registration

Information on registration of legal entities(extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities) can be obtained in one of the following ways:

• personally, through the district INFTS;
• through an intermediary;
• in electronic form, through the website nalog.ru;
• through the state service of the Federal Tax Service for the provision of information and documents contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, by providing unlimited or one-time access to the full database of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities;
• through the modernized version of the service “Obtaining an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities/Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs via the Internet” (https://service.nalog.ru/vyp/).

INTERESTING: most often an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is obtained for an active person, but the question arises: is it possible to obtain an extract for an already liquidated organization? There is no clear answer, although the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation mentioned its position in one of the judicial acts. The court pointed out that the Law on State Registration does not contain any indication that extracts from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities for inactive legal entities should not be issued (decision of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation dated November 6, 2009 No. GKPI09-1373). There is no such prohibition in other legal acts. Moreover, receiving an extract for a liquidated person is not included among the grounds for refusing to issue an extract.

Specificity of some methods

Each of the listed options has certain pros and cons.

So, if you receive an extract in person from the Federal Tax Service, then in addition to paying the state fee, you will also have to spend your own time - both on submitting the application and on receiving the finished extract.

When receiving information from the website nalog.ru, you should remember that the database is not updated daily, so the information will not be complete, but it will be completely free and will be suitable for confirming the location of the counterparty (clause 3 of the resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation dated February 17, 2011 No. 12).

The state service for providing information contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities in electronic form is very convenient, informative and complete, but a one-time provision of register information in full for one day will cost 50,000 rubles with subscriber services for a year at 150,000 rubles. For a one-time provision of updated register information, you will need to pay 5,000 rubles (Order of the Ministry of Finance of Russia dated January 15, 2015 No. 5n).

The modernized version of the service “Obtaining an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities/Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs via the Internet” on the Federal Tax Service website has been in effect since the second half of 2015. This service allows you to obtain an extract only in relation to the person who applied for it. When using this method, you will need a key certificate electronic signature(paragraphs 27, 104 of the order of the Ministry of Finance of Russia dated January 15, 2015 No. 5n). The statement will be provided only in electronic form. This service does not allow you to check the counterparty.

IMPORTANT: an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, received in electronic form and signed with an enhanced electronic signature, has the force equivalent to a document on paper, signed with a handwritten signature and certified by a seal (clauses 1, 3, article 6 of the Law “On Electronic Signatures” dated 04/06/2011 No. 63-FZ).

New in the legislation on state registration

Previously, the Law on State Registration stated that all information contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is reliable, which was confirmed by the applicants with their signature when submitting documents for registration of a legal entity (Article 5; 12 of the Law on State Registration). The tax authorities did not have the right to verify the information submitted for registration, which led to distortion of the information contained in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (determined by the Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Central District dated February 26, 2013 in case No. A64-4252/2012).

Since the end of March 2015, amendments have been made to the State Registration Law regarding verification of the accuracy of information provided when registering legal entities. The grounds and procedure for checking the accuracy of the information provided are established in clause 4.2. Art. 9 of the Law on State Registration. Providing false information will result in denial of state registration. An authentication check can also be carried out in relation to information already entered into the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (Clause 6, Article 11 of the Law on State Registration). If the accuracy of the information already entered is not confirmed, then a record of its unreliability is made in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

In addition, liability for providing false information has been tightened (Article 114.25 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation; Article 170.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). The legislation established the concept of “dummy persons” (Article 173.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation).

From January 1, 2016, the Unified State Register of Legal Entities included information about the decision made by the company to change its location (sub-clause “Clause 2”, Clause 1, Article 5 of the Law on State Registration). The procedure for notification and the list of documents is established by Art. 17 of the Law on State Registration.

So, information on state registration of legal entities allow you to obtain fairly complete, reliable and comprehensive information about a legal entity. Requesting such information will allow us to draw a conclusion about the good faith of the counterparty or can become an excellent argument in court.

To avoid misunderstandings, you should pay more attention to the choice of method for obtaining extracts and documents from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, and also remember the importance of timely making changes to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and providing reliable information.
