Omsk region will adjust the cost of a patent for business

The bill was adopted by the regional parliament for consideration.

The Regional Ministry of Economy has prepared significant changes in the calculation of the patent value, in particular, for retail and catering facilities.

"Last year, as part of anti-crisis measures, the patent price was reduced 10 times. This year, "docklike" calculations are being applied, which we are adjusting for a more equitable approach in determining its price. We are talking about retail and catering facilities. Previously, the cost of a patent was determined based on the potential annual income set for a retail or catering facility, and did not depend on the area of the facility. Sole proprietors with a retail area of 5 square meters paid the same as enterprises with an area of 50 square meters," said the first Deputy Minister of Economy of the region.Denis Kushner.

Taking into account the right granted by the Tax Code, it is proposed to set the patent value per 1 square meter. Additionally, this year, for the first time, the Tax Code provides for the right of entrepreneurs to reduce the cost of a patent by the amount of insurance premiums paid. "We cannot reset the patent value. Such benefits are valid only for newly registered sole proprietors. Therefore, taking into account the possibility of reducing the patent price for paid insurance premiums, we adjust its estimated cost, which is not equal to the patent price payable," he explainedDenis Kushner.

In particular, according to the new version, sole proprietors without employees with the type of activity "hairdressing and beauty services", taking into account the possibility of reducing the cost by the entire amount of insurance premiums, the patent will cost 10 thousand 200 rubles. Sole proprietors who employ employees can reduce up to 50% of the patent value by the amount of insurance premiums paid. For an entrepreneur with the same type of activity "hairdressing and beauty services", who employs three employees, the cost of the patent, taking into account the reduction in insurance premiums, will amount to 19 thousand 200 rubles.

As explained in the Ministry of Economy, the changes will not lead to an increase in the burden on business. Their essence boils down to the necessary technical adjustments that will ensure a balance between the interests of entrepreneurs and the regional budget. The agency notes that the application of the patent taxation system is the right of a businessman. However, there are other tax regimes that may be attractive to an entrepreneur and will reduce the burden.
