The Federal Tax Service is an agency that, due to the specifics of its activities, often arranges regular inspections of the activities of enterprises. They are carried out due to the need to exercise tax control and monitor compliance with regulations by payers of the law. Among the most common types of procedures in question are desk audits. How often can they be held? What conclusions can the Federal Tax Service come to after conducting such inspections?

Desk audit: definition

Based on the wording of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, a desk tax audit is a procedure carried out by the territorial body of the Federal Tax Service of Russia, aimed at studying the declarations and other documents of the payer operating at the location of the department structure.

The goal is to control compliance with the legislation regulating the calculation and payment of relevant fees to the treasury. A desk tax audit is carried out within 3 months from the moment the payer submits a declaration and accompanying documents to the Federal Tax Service.

Formalities

Based on the results of the procedure, documents may be drawn up indicating a violation of the relevant laws. As a rule, this is an act formed in a special form. If no problems are identified, such sources cannot be compiled. At the same time, if a desk tax audit reveals that an entrepreneur made errors in the declaration and other documents, then an order is issued to him: to make appropriate adjustments to the sources within 5 days. If the payer refused to consider the relevant request, then, in turn, the Federal Tax Service employee has the right to draw up the act described above.

Tax audit report

What might be the structure of the relevant document discussed above? What does a desk tax audit report look like? We will now look at a sample of this source regarding key wording.

According to standard form, on which reports of desk audits are drawn up, we will be most interested in paragraphs 2 and 3 of the corresponding document.

Paragraph 1 of the act, as a rule, indicates formal information - the organization’s address, name, type of inspection, etc.

In paragraph 2, the Federal Tax Service sets out a list of violations. This could be, for example, a wording like “it has been established that the declaration was signed by a person not related to the activities of the company.”

Paragraph 3, in turn, sets out the conclusions and recommendations (proposals) of the Federal Tax Service to eliminate violations. In our case, this will probably be wording like “to make corrections to the declaration.”

Differences from on-site inspection

It should be noted that in addition to the desk audit, there is also an on-site tax audit. What is the difference? An on-site tax audit implies that the Federal Tax Service will study not only the documents, but also the correctness of the calculation, as well as the payment of all necessary fees to the treasury. The basis for carrying out such a procedure is an order from the head of the territorial division of the Federal Tax Service, which operates at the place of registration of the payer. At the same time, an “on-site” inspection does not necessarily imply the actual arrival of tax officials at the entrepreneur’s office. Let us assume an option in which the corresponding procedure can be carried out in the offices of the Federal Tax Service. An on-site inspection may involve examining the activities of an entrepreneur for the calculation and payment of one or several types of taxes. The period of operation of the company in the previous 3 years is subject to study. At the same time, it is not allowed to check a company in an on-site format twice during the same period.

As we said above, a desk tax audit only allows for the drawing up of an act on violations of the procedure for calculating and paying taxes to the treasury. In the case of an on-site format, there may be more options for the actions of the Federal Tax Service. Tax authorities may require various examinations, request information from foreign structures and carry out other additional actions.

Desk inspection: procedure

Let's study the order in which a tax audit is carried out in a desk format. As we have already said, this procedure is mainly based on studying the correctness of filling out declarations and other documents. A desk audit is initiated the moment the Federal Tax Service receives the relevant reports from the entrepreneur. Federal Tax Service specialists check declarations and accompanying documents for:

  • correctness of determining the tax base;
  • the correctness of the arithmetic operations used in lines and columns;
  • the legality of the claimed deductions;
  • the correctness of the rates applied by the payer and possible benefits, based on the provisions of the relevant legislation;

In turn, within the framework of each of the listed stages of verification, the Federal Tax Service carries out a set of other actions (for example, reconciling the received figures with those indicated in declarations for previous periods, information in own databases data, etc.).

If a tax audit reveals errors or inconsistencies in the documents, then, as we said above, the entrepreneur is informed about them in writing. At the same time, the Federal Tax Service invites him to change or supplement the relevant sources. If both actions were not carried out by the tax authorities, then the result desk audit is declared invalid. Accordingly, if the payer has not made the necessary corrections to the documents, the Federal Tax Service will issue a corresponding violation. However, this is not the only possible scenario for further actions. Let's consider possible options activities of the department after the desk audit of tax returns and other documents is completed.

Tax authorities' actions

Actually, as soon as a Federal Tax Service employee discovers errors in the sources provided by the payer, he is obliged to draw up a report addressed to the management of his territorial department. It sets out facts that indicate a possible violation by a person tax legislation. There, in the memo, the Federal Tax Service employee reflects a recommendation to make a decision. Typically one of the following:

  • hold the payer accountable (or refuse this procedure);
  • initiate additional activities related to tax control.

Interesting fact: if the payer, having received recommendations from the Federal Tax Service on correcting incorrect information in declarations and other documents, has not taken the necessary actions, then the tax authorities have the right to initiate not a desk-type procedure, but an off-site one. This is a scheduled check. The tax office may include the enterprise in the appropriate list.

If taxes are underpaid

The Federal Tax Service can establish, by examining declarations and other related documents, that the entrepreneur unreasonably underestimated the amount of fees to be calculated and paid. That is, by carrying out not only on-site, but also desk audits of tax authorities, department employees have the right to establish such facts. In this case, within 10 days after the relevant procedure, the head of the territorial division of the Federal Tax Service issues an order to hold the payer accountable in accordance with the norms of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. After this, the entrepreneur is notified of the need to pay the missing amount of fees, including penalties, to the budget, as well as make adjustments to the documents.

Document processing

Desk audit - what kind of procedure is this from the point of view of the algorithm of actions of tax authorities in terms of working with documents? Let's consider this nuance.

First of all, documents are examined for completeness and relevance of submission - in accordance with the deadlines established by law. Next, it checks how timely the documents were submitted to the Federal Tax Service. The next stage is the appearance of the documents, the presence of all necessary details, correct font, etc. Next, the correctness of calculations, arithmetic, and the validity of using benefits is examined. The next stage is checking the correctness of determining the tax base.

Thus, during a desk audit, a Federal Tax Service employee performs three types of main actions:

  • checking for compliance with formal requirements regarding the completion of documents;
  • study of the payer’s arithmetic operations for correctness;
  • verification of documents and information in them from the point of view of regulatory regulation.

The procedure that completes the desk audit is drawing conclusions on all the numbers and other parameters of studying documents, forming instructions.

Deadlines

The most important aspect of such a procedure as a desk tax audit is the timing. Above, we only indicated that the maximum time interval that the Federal Tax Service has to complete the study of documents submitted by an enterprise is 3 months. Now we will look at the nuances associated with timing in more detail.

As such, the countdown of the allotted period of time for verification begins from the moment the entrepreneur’s documents are received by the Federal Tax Service. For example, if a desk tax audit on VAT is implied, then the submission of the corresponding quarterly declaration will be considered its beginning.

An important nuance regarding the deadlines is that they can be extended. But the Federal Tax Service must have substantial grounds for this. Which for example? As a rule, such cases are possible if the documents of the largest payers in the region are checked (according to the criteria established by the Federal Tax Service). It is also possible to increase the inspection period if department employees have identified inaccuracies or contradictions in the information provided by the company, which may indicate a direct violation of the law. Another possible reason is that the Federal Tax Service considered it necessary to carry out additional procedures within the framework of tax control.

Discussion points

We have studied the main characteristics of such a phenomenon as a desk audit and what it is. At the same time, it is worth noting a nuance regarding some problematic and, to some extent, controversial issues characteristic of this procedure. Many lawyers believe that there are unresolved legal and organizational problems in this area. They can be observed during law enforcement practice, arbitration activities.

One of the most pressing problems is related to the VAT refund procedure. The fact is that enterprises that overpaid for one reason or another this tax, formally have the right to return surpluses from the budget. However, in practice, it can be difficult for businesses to carry out this procedure - mainly because the Federal Tax Service authorities, according to some experts, sometimes get too involved in requesting additional documents from enterprises during desk audits of VAT returns. This significantly slows down the process and can negatively affect the dynamics of interaction between the enterprise and partners and contractors. The difficulty here is also that the Tax Code of the Russian Federation does not yet have a list of documents that can clearly indicate the right of a business to receive a VAT deduction. And therefore, tax authorities, as experts note, sometimes require too wide a range of sources.

Another group of problems is connected, in fact, with what some lawyers believe are not entirely unambiguous formulations in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. A simple example - in paragraph 3 of Article 88 of the Code it is stated that if errors in the declaration are identified during a desk audit, the taxpayer is informed about this. However, as lawyers note, it is not directly stated here whether this is the responsibility of the Federal Tax Service or whether it is a right. At the same time, this kind of action of the Federal Tax Service, such as issuing a demand to the payer to eliminate violations, is classified precisely as a right, based on the wording of paragraph 1 of Article 31 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. In turn, arbitration practice contains precedents that indicate that the corresponding action of the Federal Tax Service should still be considered as an obligation.

The next group of problems is related to the insufficient elaboration of the criteria by which on-site inspections, based on office results. That is, it is possible that a business clearly carried out work with violations, but a more stringent control procedure was not initiated against it: all that the Federal Tax Service sent was an act of a desk tax audit, which, in fact, may not in any way affect the further behavior of the business in terms of intentional violations of relevant legislation. In turn, it happens that the company made virtually random errors in filling out documents, but the Federal Tax Service still decided to carry out an on-site event.

Experts believe that there should still be a fair relationship between the two tax control procedures. The criteria in this case may be:

  • the degree of compliance of indicators in tax and accounting documents;
  • logic between settlement procedures for different parts of the business;
  • comparison of data for different periods;
  • comparison of information obtained during a desk audit and information received by the Federal Tax Service from other sources.

Experts name improvement of the technological base as possible tools that would allow the Federal Tax Service to do its work more efficiently. That is, if, for example, there are some inconsistencies in a particular business, and they are obvious - computer program in accordance with the established algorithms, visually and using objective indicators, will be able to identify possible violations that may be the basis for an on-site inspection.

We have already spoken about the timing of the desk audit. You can get acquainted

In this article we will answer the question: what is a desk audit? And we’ll tell you about the procedure for holding a camera room.

So, what is a desk audit? And what is it?

A desk audit is a mandatory quarterly tax audit.

The desk check consists of:

  • arithmetic verification of calculations in declarations (to identify mathematical errors)
  • comparison of indicators with declarations for past periods
  • comparison of indicators in the same period for different taxes
  • comparison of indicators with financial statements

First, the desk check takes place automatically.

All data from declarations and reporting of an organization (or entrepreneur) is entered into a database, where indicators are reconciled automatically.

Without exception, all declarations and calculations submitted by organizations and entrepreneurs to the tax office undergo a desk tax audit. Tax agents not an exception.

If the Federal Tax Service program does not find errors, i.e. all the necessary reporting has been submitted, the arithmetic calculations are correct, the data in different declarations do not contradict each other, then the desk tax audit is considered successfully completed.

In order for employees tax service If you have any unnecessary questions, we advise you when forming tax reporting in the accounting program, use the option to check control ratios.

If errors are found...

In this case, employees tax office They may call you to the inspectorate to give explanations.

This can happen in the following cases:

  • if, when checking the declaration, errors or inconsistencies with the data available to the tax inspectorate are discovered
  • if a corrective (updated) declaration is filed, in which the tax amount is reduced relative to the initial declaration
  • if the declaration states tax to be reimbursed from the budget

In these cases, a request for clarification is sent. The request can be sent in one of the following ways:

  • personally
  • Russian Post
  • in electronic form, if you submit reports electronically.

If the request is received by you electronically, within 6 days you are required to send a receipt to the tax office. Otherwise, after 10 days you risk being left with a blocked current account.

What needs to be done for the desk audit to be successfully completed.

So, if you nevertheless receive a request to provide explanations in connection with a desk tax audit, then you have 5 days to:

  • Submit a (correcting) updated tax return in which the errors identified by the tax authorities will be eliminated. By the way, the errors will be described in detail in the request. And also, if in the updated declaration the tax amount is subject to additional payment, do not forget to pay the tax to the budget before submitting the update or at the same time. Otherwise you will receive a fine.
  • Provide explanations to which you can attach any documents you consider necessary. Explanations can be provided by you in any form.

In any of these cases, a desk tax audit will be conducted again.

I would like to draw your attention to the fact that if such demands of the tax authorities are left completely unattended, then in the near future you may be left with a blocked account. By the way, unblocking the account in this case will not be so easy.
