If you have a unique idea for creating a business, do not rush to spend money on consulting lawyers and notaries on filling out an application for opening an individual entrepreneur, but rather save the saved amount of money by sending it to start-up capital. After all, an individual does not need to take any supernatural actions in order to register as an Individual Entrepreneur.

The legal sequence for registering an individual entrepreneur is based on the laws of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. According to this Code, an application for registration of an individual entrepreneur can be submitted by both a citizen of the Russian Federation and a foreigner or stateless person legally residing in our country.

To register, an individual must fill out the appropriate form (printed or electronic form), and in confirmation of his intention to pay the state fee, the amount of which in 2018 is 800 rubles.

You can download a sample of filling out an application in various formats: ,

You can also download blank forms in different formats: ,

Be careful! The state fee is paid for each attempt to apply for registration of an individual entrepreneur! This means that if any mistake or typo is made in the P21001 form, then the computer server will not allow the citizen to register as an individual entrepreneur, and with each subsequent attempt to fill out the form and send it for verification, it will be necessary to pay the state fee in full again. It should be noted that the state duty for registration of LLC, OJSC, CJSC, individual entrepreneur is charged every time you apply for registration actions and is not refundable if registration is denied due to the fault of the applicant (documents were filled in incorrectly, errors and corrections were made in them, not provided the entire list of required information).

There are many ways to pay the state duty - from the terminal in the MFC building, to the cash desk at any bank. However, if you have a plastic card, we recommend paying at home online. To do this, go to the official website of the tax office:

Here we select the appropriate items:

Please note that if you are going to register an individual entrepreneur through the MFC, you need to select the item (otherwise, the MFC will not accept your receipt): "State duty for registration of an individual entrepreneur as an individual entrepreneur (when applying through multifunctional centers) (18210807010018000110) "... In case of registration of an individual entrepreneur in a branch of the Federal Tax Service - select item number 1.

At the moment, form P21001 is valid for state registration of individual entrepreneurs. This form was legalized by the Federal Tax Service of Russia on January 25, 2012, and came into effect after a year and a half, namely on July 4, 2013.

Form P21001 is a letterhead document consisting of 4 A4 pages (this is a landscape sheet). To be more precise, it consists of three pages and the fourth sheet is divided into 2: sheet A and sheet B. Accordingly, in fact, it turns out 5 pages. But if an individual has Russian citizenship, then there is no need to fill out one page, and a blank (blank) page does not need to be submitted to the tax authority.

To familiarize a potential individual entrepreneur on various sites on the Internet, links are offered for downloading the P21001 form in various formats:

Attention! You will not be able to submit a completed form downloaded from the Internet to the Tax Inspectorate if the double 2D barcode is not present in the upper right corner of the title page of the P21001 form.

Imaginary tips for newbies or essential help?

A person who does not fully possess information about the method, as well as the correctness of filling out the form for registering an individual entrepreneur, will naturally look for it in the vastness of the Internet. Various sites offer numerous services for downloading and reviewing, both on a paid and free basis. For beginners, of course, the presence of these programs is a plus, because with the use of services there is confidence in the correctness of their actions.

For example, there are such online services, the functions of which include a free check of the correctness of filling out the form before sending it to the tax authority. Of particular interest is the auto-fill function, when using which a potential individual entrepreneur enters his data into the program directly on the site (it does not need to be downloaded and installed), but you just need to register. After processing personal data by the program, the user receives a ready-made copy of the completed form P21001, which can be immediately transferred to paper format using the print function (if there is a printer).

By the way! Under no circumstances should you use the duplex feature when printing a statement. Each page is printed separately, with blank content on the back.

To facilitate filling out the P21001 form, you can use the service located on the official website of the Tax Authority of the Russian Federation. To test filling out the application, you need to download and install the program on your computer device. The name of this program sounds more than transparent: "Program for the preparation of documents for state registration of individuals as individual entrepreneurs." This service has been prepared with the support of the Main Scientific Innovation and Implementation Center. The structure of the service is simple: after installing the program, you need to open it and click on the "new document" button on the screen that appears, which is located very first in the upper left corner of the document. If you fill out incorrectly or skip filling in the required information, when you go to the next page, a hint window will appear, indicating the options where the user could have made a mistake. With the correct and complete filling of the data, an application for registration of individuals is generated. person as an individual entrepreneur.

When you finish working with the program, a window appears asking you to save the resulting document to your device.

Often, beginners consider it necessary to use paid services of specialists, or they download paid assistant applications to correctly fill out an application for registration of an individual entrepreneur. But in an objective sense, this is superfluous, you do not need to spend money in vain, especially if there is a free program on the official website of the Federal Tax Service and other sites in the vastness of the network. If you sort things out slowly, filling out government documents, including the form for registering an individual entrepreneur, will not present any difficulties.

Conservative classic or mobile convenience?

The life of modern people is already so computerized that many do not even imagine that there were times with huge queues and paperwork. Fortunately or unfortunately, but for some part of the population, this life remains the norm. What can we say about retirees or young people raised by conservative parents who are very far from electronic services in general, and especially when it comes to serious documents and registration of important statements.

Filling out the P21001 form manually

If, for some reason, you decide to fill out the P21001 form not in electronic, but in paper form, that is, by hand, then you will need to adhere to the standard requirements for filling out classical state-approved application forms. Namely:

  1. Only one character can be entered in one printed cell;
  2. Letters must be printed. As in the primer. Recipes are not allowed;
  3. Each letter of every word must be capitalized. An exception to this rule are certain reductions, which are approved in Appendix No. 2 "Requirements for the preparation of documents submitted to the regional tax authority" dated 04.07.2013. For example, the word "city" is abbreviated as a single lowercase letter "g" or, the abbreviation for "street" is the value "st" (Section 2.4 of Appendix No. 2).
  4. The ink color must be exclusively black. Typically a pearlescent black gel pen is used. But the alternative may well serve as a classic black rod, provided its rich color.

Attention! When filling out the P21001 form manually, additions, strikethroughs and corrections are not allowed. In this case, the application is considered to be filled in incorrectly and the citizen is denied registration.

Requirements for electronically filling out the P21001 form

When filling out the form in the electronic version, it is also necessary to remember that each symbol is assigned 1 cell or, in the computerized version - "familiarity". Before starting to fill out the application, you need to determine the font and its size. According to the established requirements, the form must be filled out in Courier New font and size 18. All alphabetic characters are filled with large print. To change the standard set of text, you must press the "Caps Lock" key, which is usually located in the middle of the rightmost row. After enabling this mode, all entered letters will automatically be capitalized.

In general, filling out the form electronically should not be difficult, the main thing is to adhere to the following requirements (which, however, also apply to filling out manually):

  1. Fill in the data in the same way as indicated in the passport. If you know that there are errors or typos in your passport, there is nothing you can do about it at the moment. To fix them, you need to contact the passport office, and this will take a lot of time. Therefore, if, for example, in the passport there is a typo in the middle name, it is necessary to enter into the form as it is - "Yurevna", instead of the correct "Yuryevna". This rule applies to both place of residence and date of birth.
  2. If the day of the month in which you were born is less than 10, and your passport says, for example, 12/2/1976, then you must always put the number 0 in front of the first digit. That is, 12/02/1976. Do not forget that the dot must be entered in a separate familiarity, that is, to fill in the date of birth, you will need to fill in 10 cells. Im: In simple words, how many characters are involved in the meaning, so many cells and need to be filled.
  3. According to the requirements, foreign citizens may not register the TIN. Russian citizens, too, however, it is rare to meet a person who does not have this meaning. In the absence of a TIN, it is necessary to issue it by contacting the Tax Authority with an appropriate application, or, in order not to waste time, leave this field empty, and when registering an individual as an individual entrepreneur, it will be assigned “automatically”.
  4. When filling out the series and passport number, we also "copy" the format from the printed passport document. If there is a gap in the series between 2 digits, we duplicate it, filling out the form, do not forget that the gap requires a separate familiarity! If there is no space, that is, the series consists of 4 concatenated digits, filled without a space. A space is also required between the series and the passport number.
  5. The value of the contact phone number is indicated without spaces. For a landline phone number, first the digital value must indicate the number 8, then the citizen's city code and the immediate number. For a mobile phone number, in the very first cell, the sign "+" is indicated, then the number 7, after, in brackets, the digital value of the operator is indicated, and then, without a space, the direct phone number, for example, +7 (917) 7896541 without a dot at the end.

    Separate cells are also required for parentheses!

  6. When filling in long names that require a word to wrap to the next line, the hyphen is not put.
  • Further, in paragraph 6.2. you should indicate the code of the subject of the Russian Federation (as a rule, this code is indicated on the numbers of the cars). If a citizen has no idea at all what value to write in this cell, he should turn to the help of the site, which lists all the existing regions of the Russian Federation.
  • In clauses 6.3-6.9, the exact address of a citizen of the Russian Federation is filled in, namely, the name of the district, city, town, village, depending on the place of residence of the individual is written. For correct abbreviations of names, it is necessary to study the requirements for the preparation of documents submitted to the registration authority, which are described in the annex of the same name to the order of the Federal Tax Service of Russia dated January 25, 2012.
  • In paragraph 7, a potential individual entrepreneur will have to indicate the data of his identity document. Passport is indicated. In order to find out what digital value the code of a document has, you need to refer to Appendix No. 3 "Requirements for the preparation of documents submitted to the registering authority." For example, a birth certificate has a code 03, a military ID has a code 07, a passport of a foreign citizen has a code 10, and a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation has a code 21.
  • The series and number of the passport is indicated in the same way as it is written in the passport (pay special attention to the presence or absence of a gap in the series, and also do not forget to leave an empty cell before filling in the passport number). Fill in the date of issue identically to the entry in the passport.
  • Clauses 7.4 and 7.5 indicate who issued the identity document, as well as the subdivision code (you need to fill out as written in the passport).
  • In the case of using the FTS document preparation program, filling in the second page is as follows:

    Completion of page 003 (sheet A)

    On this page, you should indicate information about the codes for the all-Russian classifier of types of economic activities. That is, it is necessary to decide in which direction the individual entrepreneur will develop his business, and build on this industry. However, there is no prohibition to prescribe other types of activities other than the main one.

    In paragraph 1 of page 003, the code of the main type of activity is entered. In order to find out the values ​​of the codes of the All-Russian Classifier of Types of Economic Activity, you can use the website https://www.regberry.ru/malyy-biznes/okved, where the codes and their meanings are described in detail. Each code must contain at least four numeric characters.

    Indicate in the search approximately what you want to do, and the service will tell you what to choose:

    At the initial stage, we recommend that you do not spend a lot of time choosing OKVED codes. Choose 1 main activity and 2-3 additional ones (although you can choose an infinite number of them), which will characterize what you are doing.

    Don't worry, the list of activities can always be changed, at any time when working as an entrepreneur.

    Using the FTS document preparation program, sheet A is filled in as follows:

    Completion of page 004 (sheet B)

    On the final page of the application for state registration of an individual as an individual entrepreneur, your last name, first name, patronymic must be written manually, regardless of which method of filling out the application the applicant chose. To do this, you must use a pen with black paste. The signature is put by the applicant naturally by hand. Thus, the applicant confirms that the information contained in the application is reliable and corresponds to the submitted documents.

    It is not required to certify your signature with a notary when submitting documents to the tax authority in person.
