Legal entity data. What information can be obtained about a potential partner

The main state number during registration is assigned to all organizations (OGRN) and individual entrepreneurs (OGRNIP) and is valid until their liquidation. Why these identifiers are needed and how to find out the OGRN by the TIN of an individual entrepreneur, or the OGRN by the TIN of a legal entity, we will describe further.

OGRN and OGRNIP - what is it

OGRN and OGRNIP numbers are not just serial numbers of subjects, but unique combinations of numbers that contain certain information.

OGRN of legal entities consists of 13 characters, and OGRN of entrepreneurs - of 15. When deciphering them, you can see: is it a legal entity, or an individual entrepreneur, in what year it was created, in which region and inspection of the Federal Tax Service it was registered and under what number, the last digit is the control.

If the OGRN / OGRNIP number is invalid, this means that such a company or individual entrepreneur does not exist.

Checking PSRN by TIN

When concluding any deal with a new company or entrepreneur, in order not to harm your own business, you first need to check whether they exist in reality and whether their details are reliable. To do this, you must make sure that their OGRN / OGRNIP are valid. If the TIN of the counterparty is known, it will not be difficult to find out the OGRN by the TIN of the organization (OGRNIP by the TIN of the IP). Let's see how this can be done.

It is possible to determine the TIN of the OGRN of organizations and the OGRN of entrepreneurs through a special free service on the official website of the Federal Tax Service ]]> www.nalog.ru ]]>. For this you need:

find the "Electronic Services" section on the main page of the FTS website,
select the tab “]]> Business risks: check yourself and the counterparty ]]> ”;
in the service that opens, in the "Search Criteria" window, select the tab for the individual entrepreneur / peasant farm or legal entity;
to find out the OGRN by TIN, and not by name, you need to check the search for "OGRN / TIN" and enter the known TIN number;
after entering the verification code, click the "Find" button.

As a result, the service will issue a table with the following information: name of the legal entity / individual entrepreneur, address, PSRN / PSRNIP, date of its assignment, TIN, KPP, date of termination of activity, date of recognition of registration as invalid. For operating firms and individual entrepreneurs, the last two columns will be empty. If any of them indicate the date of closing or canceling registration, you should stay away from such a counterparty, since legally it no longer exists.

What else can you find out, except for PSRN and PSRNIP by TIN

In addition to the OGRNIP and OGRN numbers, the Federal Tax Service provides access to an extract from the USRIP / USRLE about an entrepreneur or company in the same service. Clicking on the name of an individual entrepreneur or legal entity in the above table opens a file containing data as of the date of viewing. This is all registration information, data of the founders, the entrepreneur, assigned OKVED codes by type of activity, etc.

Thus, knowing only one TIN number, you can instantly get almost complete information about the counterparty.

Statistics give us a not very pleasant fact: a deal with every 20 organization usually ends in losses just because the counterparty company did not check it for reliability. How to study the reputation of the company and come to honest cooperation? Let's try to figure it out.

When should contractors be checked?

Verification of counterparties is usually carried out either by experienced businessmen or experienced lawyers. Do you know why? Because they have already understood that you need to work only with trustworthy companies and, moreover, only you are responsible for checking this trustworthiness.

In order to avoid unpleasant situations when working with a counterparty, it is customary to “drive” new partners through a whole list of checks. Moreover, there are a number of cases when such checks are required:

If you decide to work with a new partner for the first time. Checking will help to avoid possible errors.
If you are aware that the potential counterparty is a new company that has recently registered. Of course, a new company in itself cannot bear risks, however, working with it is still as good as it can be.
If you know that a potential counterparty is not very flattering. Of course, no one has canceled the evil tongues of competition, but still the old proverb says "trust, but verify."
If a potential counterparty works exclusively on prepaid basis. By checking the company for reliability, you can protect yourself from underdelivery of goods, or from the provision of low-quality services.

Company verification is a separate service that many organizations provide, however, with due skill and free time, you can do it yourself.

The relevance of the company due diligence for different business areas should not be questioned. Even in such a seemingly undeniably reliable activity as leasing, there are not entirely honest “players”.

What information can be obtained about a potential partner

So, let's look at what kind of information you can get about a company using simple Internet access. The easiest way is to go to the website of the tax service and use the search to find all the information you need there, or use the services of third-party resources, which, by the way, are sometimes paid.

Checking the TIN

The first thing that characterizes a company as a company that really works and works honestly is the TIN. If you have an organization's TIN, then you can easily check how real it is. TIN, or individual tax number, is a cipher built according to a special algorithm. If the company took it out of their heads, then checking by this number through any service convenient for you will not give any result.

The easiest way to check the TIN is to use the verification service on the website of the tax service (more on this at the end of the article).

We request a certificate of state registration

Requesting a certificate of registration is a sure way to find out how real the activities of a potential counterparty are. In this way, we will find out whether the company actually exists, that is, whether it is accounted for by the Federal Tax Service as a taxpayer.

Of course, the presence of evidence does not yet tell us that the company is very trustworthy. Maybe she just stopped her activities, or maybe she does not submit reports, or even a tax debtor.

You can request a copy of the state registration certificate directly from the company, or again use the services of third-party resources.

We receive an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities / EGRIP

If you can get a fresh statement for the counterparty from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities / EGRIP, then this means that the organization is still afloat. Moreover, the extract contains all the necessary information to verify the honesty of the organization: its owner, place of registration, licenses and other data.

The extract can be downloaded on the official website of the tax service of the Russian Federation (which is much easier) or requested from a potential partner. If you need a certified extract from the register, you can apply for it at any branch of the Tax Service of Russia.

Analyzing financial statements

An excellent tool for analyzing an organization is the analysis of its financial statements. Request a balance sheet from the counterparty, or use third-party services.

With the help of the balance, you can check several types of data at once:

the company successfully closes quarters and submits reports;
the company conducts business;
What assets does the firm own?

The company's assets are, first of all, its authorized and other types of capital and liabilities. If the company has practically no assets, then this is an occasion for you to think about whether it is worth linking your business with it.

Also, if you know that you are planning a major deal with a company, and its assets or turnover are very small compared to the amount of the deal, then this is also a reason to think: most likely it hides part of the income, which also does not show it on the positive side.

Based on the balance sheet, you can make a full-fledged financial analysis, which can not only demonstrate the vector of the company's development, but also understand how stable it is on its feet. If you need a reliable partner, then this is one of the main indicators.

We check the registration address for "mass character"

What do you know about bulk registration address? Most likely nothing. However, this is one of the most basic features of the so-called one-day firms. If you are afraid that your counterparty may turn out to be just such a company, then just check it at the address.

This can be done on the tax service website at service.nalog.ru/addrfind.do.

Most companies are registered at one address, however, in fact, they are located in a completely different one. We also advise you to check the actual address of the company's location - whether the partner's office actually exists and what it is like. If you have not previously worked with this partner and the amount of the planned transaction is high, then such a check will not be superfluous.

Checking tax arrears and reporting

If you doubt that your counterparty is playing fair, just in case, ask the Federal Tax Service for information on the payment of taxes by this company.

What is it for? Everything is simple. If the case between you and your counterparty comes to arbitration, then your appeal to the Federal Tax Service for additional information will be a huge plus. In order to record the fact of the appeal, the request must be submitted personally, and the office of the Federal Tax Service must mark the receipt of the request (or send the request by registered mail with notification).

Knowing his TIN, you can conduct such a verification of the counterparty on the website of the tax service - service.nalog.ru/zd.do.

Given that this online service is working in test mode, you need to understand that the information received cannot be considered 100% reliable.

Government contracts

Government contracts are a great way to check all the details about a prospective partner. Contracting companies for such transactions are selected very strictly. So, for example, a firm that has debts cannot be a contractor. If a company sometimes concludes government contracts, then this is an indicator of its reliability and a stable position in the market.

You can check the company for participation in public procurement on the website zakupki.gov.ru, or on other electronic trading platforms.

People Data

What kind of people are we talking about in this case? First of all, about the management and founders. So, along with mass registration, there is such a thing as "mass leader". If a person is a director in several companies at once, then you have every reason to believe that a potential counterparty is a one-day business.

In addition to the fact that you will see how many companies a person manages, you will also have access to data on all the companies that he previously managed. If you become aware that many of the firms run by a person went bankrupt, then this is a reason to think: most likely, you are dealing with an unscrupulous company, which may not be tomorrow.

It will not be superfluous to check whether the head is listed in the register of disqualified persons. You can do this on the website of the tax service - service.nalog.ru/disqualified.do.

Checking the organization by TIN on the website of the Tax Service of Russia

Let's try to figure out how to find and check a counterparty by TIN on the website of the tax service. To do this, follow the link egrul.nalog.ru, or open the main page of the resource and in the "Electronic Services" section select "Business risks: check yourself and the counterparty".

You already know by what parameters you can check a company through the resource of the tax service of the Russian Federation, so now we will consider the most frequent of the necessary checks - checking by TIN.

For example, we will check the TIN of PJSC GAZPROM. Do not forget that in addition to checking legal entities, verification of individual entrepreneurs is also available there.

As you can see, everything is extremely simple. We enter the individual tax number in the required window and enter the captcha to confirm that we are not a robot.

The result is pleasing: the tax office immediately provides the address of the company's location, its OGRN, TIN, KPP, as well as the date the OGRN was assigned:

findings

To avoid misunderstandings when working with a new counterparty, it is necessary to check it for reliability. Such a check can be easily carried out on the official website of the tax service of Russia or use other services.

Based on the results of the audit, conclusions can be drawn - whether to start cooperation with a new company, or whether it is necessary to cut off all ties right now.

Video - why it is important to check counterparties before concluding a deal:

The Unified State Register of Legal Entities (EGRLE) contains complete open information about legal entities legally engaged in entrepreneurial activities in the territory of the Russian Federation. Registration of legal entities is carried out in the bodies of the Federal Tax Service of Russia. Registers are also maintained by the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation. Register data is used to verify the counterparty, exercise due diligence, confirm the powers of the Head, obtain an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities for a legal entity, and for other purposes that require the provision of official registration data of the Federal Tax Service of Russia.

On the ZACHESTNYYBUSINESS portal, you can get information about the state registration of legal entities, full open data of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities for free.

The data on the portal is updated daily and synchronized with the nalog.ru service of the Federal Tax Service of Russia*.

To obtain data from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, use the search box:

To do this, enter the TIN or OGRN of the company in the search box.

If you do not have the exact details, it will be enough to enter the name of the company. If the name is common and a list comes out at your request, it is advisable to clarify the request:
. enter the name of the company + the surname of the director (for example: TEHPROM IVANOV)
. or: company name + location (for example: TEHPROM MOSCOW)
. or all parameters at once (for example: TEHPROM IVANOV MOSCOW)

With the help of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, you can get the following up-to-date information about the Counterparty - a legal entity for free:
. Status of the legal entity (active, liquidated, under reorganization, etc.);
. Date of registration, the tax authority that carried out the registration;
. Legal address (location address), number of organizations registered at this address;
. Authorized capital;
. Full name of the Head, his position;
. The founders (participants) of the legal entity, their number, the size of the share in the authorized capital;
. Types of economic activity;
. Licenses issued to a legal entity (if any);
. Branches and Representative Offices (if any);
. Registration in off-budget funds;
. other official public information.

Changes to the registers, changes to any data, are carried out only by the Federal Tax Service after the official request of the Head and submission of the appropriate form for changes. For example, changing the company phone number provided during registration is only possible by filing Form P14001. Registration of changes in the tax is carried out within five working days, then ready-made amended documents are issued.

We wish you fruitful, comfortable work with the registers of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities of the Federal Tax Service of Russia on the portal!
Your HONEST BUSINESS.RF.

* The data of the Unified State Register of Legal Entities are open and are provided on the basis of clause 1, article 6 of the Federal Law of 08.08.2001 No. 129-FZ “On State Registration of Legal Entities and Individual Entrepreneurs”: Information and documents contained in state registers are open and publicly available, with the exception of information, access to which is restricted, namely information about documents proving the identity of an individual.

Every transaction entered into between individuals or legal entities must comply with the requirements of local law. And if in some states there are strict definitions of a legitimate transaction, then Russian entrepreneurs in each case have to act at their own peril and risk, checking the reliability of the counterparty, and sometimes requesting the statutory documents of the legal entity and even characteristics from past business partners.

Fortunately, in this case, the state met the entrepreneurs halfway: some of the information necessary for verification from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (EGRLE), including the full name and address of registration of the enterprise (organization), is freely available on the Internet. This means that you can now get an initial idea of a counterparty company online, without wasting time on a personal visit to the IFTS. With the help of what services to do this, will be described later.

When is it necessary to search for information about a legal entity?

As always, you should start with terms. TIN, that is, the taxpayer identification number, is a sequence of ten or twelve digits from 0 to 9, which, in accordance with the developed algorithm, uniquely identifies its owner, and in the future, using officially accredited databases, obtain additional information about him. The main purpose of the TIN is to facilitate the process of calculating and paying taxes, contributing to the automation of the work of the Federal Tax Service.

The algorithm for assigning and decoding the TIN was first tested in 1993: then this number was mandatory assigned only to legal entities: offices, firms and other organizations of any form. Since the computerization of business and government structures, not to mention the population, was at an extremely low level at that time, neither potential business partners, nor ordinary customers, had the opportunity to check company data online. It was possible to obtain information from the register only after filling out the relevant application and paying the state fee in a fixed amount.

The situation did not change much four years later, when the TIN began to be issued, also on a voluntary-compulsory basis, to individual entrepreneurs - both already working and only intending to open their own business. In order to “break through” information about a company or individual entrepreneur, the partner organization had to receive a paper version of an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, having previously paid a fee.

In 1999, individuals also became eligible to receive a TIN. Since this category has no obligations to the state related to commercial activities, theoretically a Russian citizen can refuse to issue an identification number - but those who have chosen this path are well aware of the difficulties this decision entails.

In order to simplify the search for a taxpaying organization in a huge common database of several million items, the number is not assigned randomly, but in accordance with the following scheme:

the first two digits indicate the code of the subject of the Russian Federation (autonomous district, republic or region);
the next pair is the number of the branch of the Federal Tax Service for the specified region;
five more characters (six for individuals) - the number under which a particular person is recorded in the territorial section of the OGRN;
the last digit, the tenth in order (for ordinary citizens - the last two), is a control one, which allows you to check the correctness of the assignment of the number and at least partially protect the document from forgery.

So, why might you need to find out information about the organization by TIN? The first answer, the most obvious one, is not to risk too much when concluding a deal with a counterparty company, especially if you have to talk about significant amounts. After all, it may well turn out that a company that has the external attributes of a solid legal entity actually has a different name, is registered at the wrong address and in the wrong person, or even completely deregistered.

Important: the presence of inconsistencies between the information provided by the company and the data from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities does not always indicate the fraudulent intentions of the organization's leaders: one should not write off the simple human factor.

This is where Russian law comes into play. Although, as already mentioned, it does not contain prescriptions for mandatory verification of the second party to the transaction, including for the payment of taxes, entrepreneurs should remember paragraph 10 of the Decree of the Supreme Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation No. , adopted on October 12, 2006, according to which the benefit received may be recognized as unreasonable if one of the authorized bodies establishes that the taxpayer acted without the due diligence required in these conditions. What this “prudence” is and to what extent it is “necessary” in this or that case is an open question: none of the branches of government, apparently, is going to clarify it.

Theoretically, you can talk about anything: from receiving a simple receipt from a partner organization to demanding from it all the documents related to the transaction, up to letters of recommendation and current account statements. At the same time, the general practice suggests a "middle way" - obtaining information about a company by TIN on the website of the Federal Tax Service or on other specialized resources.

Advice: in most cases, in order to verify the reliability of the counterparty and prove to the FTS employees their "prudence", it is enough to familiarize yourself with the information from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities without getting carried away with additional information. Obtaining comprehensive data on an LLC or organization of any other form and further familiarization with them is not only a long and tedious process; for a future business partner, this is no less a test. In such conditions, it is easier to refuse an insignificant contract than to spend your own resources on providing the requested information.

Copy of the Charter of the organization.
Extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (EGRLE).
A copy of the certificate of registration of the LLC or company.
A copy of the certificate of registration of the legal entity with the Federal Tax Service.
Assigned state codes (you can, in particular, on the official website of the relevant Federal Service).
Documents that give the person signing the contract the necessary powers.

The extended list includes:

Certificates, licenses and permits for relevant activities.
An extract from the staffing table of the organization.
Certificates from the tax office on the absence of debt.
Copies of lease agreements for premises and warehouses.
Auditor's opinion.
Current account statement for a certain period (1-12 months).

But before asking a potential partner to send or present copies of the listed papers, it is more logical to get the basic information from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities provided on the website of the Federal Tax Service or other Internet resources for free. Despite the limitations of these data, on their basis it is already possible to draw a conclusion about the reliability of the organization and the feasibility of further negotiations.

Not always a contract is between two legal entities. One of the parties to the contract can be a private entrepreneur or an ordinary citizen who intends to enter into a contractual relationship with a company or LLC. They are usually built on a reimbursable basis: either the company performs the actions prescribed in the contract for a person and receives remuneration for this from him, or, on the contrary, an individual works for an organization and receives a one-time or regular profit in the prescribed amount. It goes without saying that in any of these situations, the least protected party will be an ordinary person who does not have a staff of lawyers, economists and accountants and, accordingly, is forced, in case of illegal actions of the counterparty, to protect his interests himself or with the involvement of third parties, in the reliability of which he also does not can be sure.

To understand how trustworthy the second party to the transaction (LLC or company of any other form of organization), a citizen can also use the opportunity provided by the Federal Tax Service to search for information about a legal entity by TIN; it is completely free, and, thanks to the gradual introduction of modern technologies, it is very simple.

It is enough to go to the official website of the Federal Tax Service or any other trustworthy resource (they will be listed below), enter the TIN or PSRN and click "Find" - and soon all the available information will be in front of the eyes of the interested person.

Important: since part of the information from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is placed in the public domain, a citizen does not need to be authorized in, which is an indisputable advantage of the service. Another advantage of database search without registration is complete confidentiality. Even when using unofficial sources, the citizen will remain unrecognized: the entered TIN does not belong to him, and he does not leave his data.

But even in these conditions, one should not forget about security, at least financial. We are talking about dubious sites that offer, for a fee, to “break through” any legal or natural person through the database. Trusting citizens are attracted by two alleged advantages of such resources: the ability to obtain information about the organization in full, and not in a limited amount, as well as the provision of information about individuals promised by the site's creators, which official sources do not. As a result, a visitor to an Internet database created by scammers (often these are simple one-page sites) either loses money in vain by transferring it to an unknown account without the possibility of a return, or voluntarily commits an illegal act.

Besides, who can vouch for the authenticity of information from unofficial sources? Even if a citizen who decides to part with the money receives the required information, it may turn out to be incorrect or outdated. Considering the traditional slowness of Russian state structures, the data in the official databases are not updated immediately; and how outdated the registry used by the dubious site is, even its owner is unlikely to be able to tell.

So, if you receive information about a legal entity, then only on trusted portals; and the first of them is the official website of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation.

How to find an organization by TIN on the tax website?

Searching for information through the FTS service is the easiest and safest option; it is difficult to imagine a situation in which, in order to find data about the organization, it will be necessary to use other resources instead.

To find an organization by TIN on the website of the Federal Tax Service, the visitor must:

Go to the website of the Federal Tax Service by typing nalog.ru in the address bar of the browser and confirming the action in any convenient way: by pressing the Enter key, by clicking the left mouse button, and so on.
Find the “Electronic Services” section located at the top of the page on the right and click on the link “Business risks: check yourself and the counterparty”.

An identical result can be achieved by scrolling the main page all the way down and selecting the link of the same name located on the blue bar. In the now full menu that opens, you need to find a section with exactly the same name as above, and click on it.

On the page that opens with the title "Information on the state registration of legal entities, individual entrepreneurs, peasant (farmer) households", you must first of all mark the tab "Legal entity" under the inscription "Search criteria". It is usually selected by default; if necessary, you can switch to it with a simple mouse click.

Having scrolled the page a little, enter the TIN or OGRN of the organization in the only text field or, by clicking on the circle located next to it, the name of the legal entity. Next, enter a code of six random numbers in the captcha field (if necessary, you can get a new code by clicking the "Update picture with numbers" link) and click the blue "Find" button. A user who doubts the correctness of the entered data can start over by clicking on the "Clear" button located on the left.

If the data is entered correctly, at the output the interested person will receive a table with basic information: the name of the legal entity, the address of its registration, the three main codes (TIN, OGRN, KPP), and also, if the relevant events took place, the dates of termination of activity or recognition of registration as invalid.

By clicking on the name-link, you can download an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities in PDF format, containing, in addition to information about the full and short name of the organization, the date of registration in the Register, legal address and various codes, information on changes made to the registration documents, given in chronological order. Now the user can find information about another organization (LLC, company or firm) by clicking on the blue button "Return to search criteria".

Without leaving the page with the result, the portal visitor has the opportunity to order a complete electronic statement, certified by an enhanced digital signature. To do this, you need to find the blue field with the corresponding sentence placed directly under the previously named button and follow the link by clicking on the last word given there - “here”.

Next, you will need to log in to your personal account and follow the further instructions of the system.

Important: for the provision of a certified electronic extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, the interested person will have to pay a state fee in the amount of 200 (normal) or 400 rubles (urgent extract) rubles.

The indisputable advantages of the tax website include:

Excellent adaptability. The functionality of the portal is not affected by the type of software product (browser) used to view Internet pages and, with rare exceptions, the presence of installed plug-ins. In particular, the site is quite calm about scripts or third-party programs that block ads or fight "spy trackers", as well as VPN services or the use of proxies.
Efficiency. You can find an organization by TIN on the official website of the Federal Tax Service in the shortest possible time: the speed is limited not by the portal, but by the workload of the general database. Currently, the timeout period rarely exceeds a few seconds. It is unlikely that you will have to wait longer, unless there are really serious failures on the server, about which the user will certainly be notified.
Confidentiality. The Federal Tax Service is a state non-profit structure that does not cooperate (at least in the provision of information) with legal entities. Therefore, whoever decides to find information about the organization by TIN, he can do this without the knowledge of the company of interest to him. The interaction proceeds in the "visitor - system" mode without unnecessary intermediaries. Among other things, all user actions on the website of the Federal Tax Service are protected by encryption using the international HTTPS protocol, which ensures an acceptable level of confidentiality if the user follows the basic rules of safe behavior on the Web.
Gratuity. The publicly available data is provided to the visitor free of charge. If you have to pay a state fee in the prescribed amount to receive a “full-fledged” paper or electronic extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, which can be ordered on the same portal, the ability to find an organization by TIN will not cost a penny.
Multifunctionality. The FTS portal is not only a taxpayer's personal account and a TIN search apparatus; this is a whole set of documents directly or indirectly related to tax legislation, as well as useful services and programs. Of course, a legal entity or an individual entrepreneur can conduct transactions on their own, without resorting to the functions of the site. But a free program that helps fill out a 3-NDFL declaration, or a similar online service, is certainly useful options that will appeal to any taxpayer, whether an individual or a legal entity.
Simplicity. This quality does not apply to all functions of the portal of the Federal Tax Service. The use of a personal account, for example, is associated with the need to personally obtain authentication data, and when using a qualified digital signature, with the installation of additional software, without which entry will not be possible. But finding an organization, company or LLC by TIN is as easy as shelling pears: just go to the desired subsection of the site and enter an identification number.
Availability. Any state institutions, including tax departments, work according to a clear schedule, which, for obvious reasons, coincides with the schedules of most other enterprises. Consequently, for a personal visit to the Federal Tax Service in order to obtain information, the taxpayer will have to adjust to the reception hours and sacrifice his working (or free, which is no less sad) time. Electronic tax services, which allow, in particular, to obtain information about an organization by its TIN, operate around the clock without days off and holidays. You can check the future counterparty without getting up from the computer; in the future, in the same way, the interested person will receive a full certificate from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, ordering it on the same portal.

The disadvantages of the service include only the need for a personal computer or laptop and an Internet connection. Everything else is solid pluses that help the portal visitor find a legal entity by TIN with minimal time and energy.

Important A: Despite the exceptional tolerance, the Federal Tax Service portal may still not fully load or work incorrectly when using some browsers or unverified plug-ins. In this case, it is recommended to use another program for browsing Internet pages, as well as disable blocking scripts. If the problem has not been resolved, it makes sense to scan the operating system for viruses, and also make sure the connection to the Global Network is good.

Alternative ways to search for company data

Although the official service of the tax service, which allows you to find an organization by TIN, is very convenient, other Internet resources are also available to a citizen; some of them will be described below.

IGK group

The first and probably the most convenient is the IGK-Group website. To use the online service, the user will need:

Go, as described above, via the link online.igk-group.ru. In the window located in the center “Search for companies in the Russian Federation. For free!" enter, depending on the data at your disposal, the name of the company, PSRN or TIN, and then click on the "Search" button.

The new page will contain basic information about the legal entity, as well as an offer to buy a complete Express Help with a comprehensive set of information from official sources. If desired, the site visitor can purchase the document by clicking on the link, or, if this data is enough for him, close the window with the search results.

List Org

The next site that is equally convenient and easy to use is list-org.com (“Organization Directory”). By visiting it, the interested person can:

In the topmost window, select one of the search options for an organization (LLC, company or firm), including by the name of the head, registration address and TIN.

Having marked the preferred method (in this case, it is the TIN), enter the identification number in the only text field and click the "Find" button located next to it.

The first page that opens will contain only brief information about the legal entity. To get more essential information, you need to click on the highlighted blue company name.

Now, scrolling down the new page, you should familiarize yourself with both the legal data about the company and its main economic indicators.

Ready! You can close the search results page and evaluate the possibility of cooperation with the organization you are looking for.

Advice: by turning off AdBlock in his browser, the user will be able to download all the data presented on the page in one MS Excel (.xls) file, which makes it possible to use the information offline in the future.

audit-it

Another of the endless list of sites - Audit-it.ru. By entering the address audit-it.ru/contragent in the browser line and confirming the transition, the user can:

Having slightly scrolled down the main page, find the text field and enter in it, depending on the availability of information, the TIN, PSRN, name, address of the enterprise or the name of the owner, and then click the blue "Find" button.

After reviewing the brief information on the next page, go to more detailed information by clicking, as usual, on the company name highlighted in blue.

Search results will be presented in several convenient tables. If desired, the user can get acquainted with the economic indicators of an LLC or a company by clicking on the “Financial test” button located at the very bottom.
