Each taxpayer (regardless of whether it is an individual or a legal entity) in Russia has its own individual identification number (TIN), which is indicated in the certificate of registration with the tax authority. The TIN allows you to personalize the taxpayer, and this number is also very important information that allows tax services to work successfully. The issuance of this certificate takes place in the tax organization at the place of registration of the citizen.
This number must be indicated when applying for a job, when performing certain financial transactions (for example, buying and selling movable and immovable property; registering an inheritance), when opening a bank account or when registering one's activities as an individual entrepreneur.
For individuals, the TIN is a code consisting of 12 digits:
- the first two characters are the code of the subject of the Russian Federation;
- the next two digits are the number of the tax authority;
- the next six characters are the taxpayer number;
- the last two digits are control numbers.
For legal entities, the TIN consists of 10 digits, unlike the TIN for individuals, the legal entity number includes fivedigits and control only one.
Get information about your TIN easily
Is it possible to find out the TIN of a person who already has a certificate of registration with the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation? The question arises, how is it possible that a person does not know his TIN? Everything is very simple: the fact is that not every individual is assigned a TIN. Receiving occurs in two cases:
- if an individual applied with a personal application;
- if an individual is the owner of property that is taxed (this happens automatically, and sometimes a person does not even realize that he has been assigned a number).
How to find out a person's TIN from passport data? This can be done easily via the Internet (online) using your passport details. Just make a request to the tax service by filling out a specific form on the site, and wait for a response containing the TIN. At the same time, you do not need to go to the tax organization, stand in a long queue, write an application, and then wait for the issuance of a duplicate document.
How to find out a person's TIN using the Internet? We recommend that you find out information about this only on two official resources: on the website of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation and the State Services portal. The information posted on these sites is stored in the database of government agencies.
Important! If some other site offers you options on how to find out a person's TIN, then you should not trust him (because you will have to enter your passport data, which will go to no one knows who).
By the way, you don't have to enteronly passport data. You can use the data indicated in the birth certificate, residence permit in Russia, temporary residence permit in the country or in other documents.
Algorithm of actions on the website of the tax service
Using the service online on the website of the tax service (nalog.ru), how to find out if a person has a TIN will not be difficult for you. Algorithm of your actions:
- Click on the "Electronic Services" button on the main page.
- After reading the provision on the conditions under which you are provided with information, press the "Find out the TIN" button.
- Fill out the form posted on the site. If you do not have a middle name, check the box "No middle name". You mark the date of birth in the proposed calendar or type it manually. The column "Place of birth" can not be filled. In the column "Type of identity document" indicate "Passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation" or any other document that you have chosen in the list provided. Fill in the “Pictures with numbers” column (it is needed as confirmation that the form is being filled out by a person, and not a computer program): if the numbers are not entirely legible, then click the “Update picture with numbers” button.
- If you made any mistakes during the filling process, then click the "Clear form" button and start filling it out again.
- If the filling is correct, press the "Submit request" button and wait for a response.
The advantages of this method are speed, convenienceand, of course, safety. Based on the foregoing, it becomes clear how to find out a person's TIN with minimal computer skills.
What needs to be done to register with the tax authority
If you do not have and have never had a document on registration with a tax organization, then you can get it by personally appearing at any tax office (this rule is enshrined in the Tax Code) or send an application with a corresponding request by mail or online.
Important! Regardless of where an individual is registered, they are registered.
When you personally apply to the inspection, you must have a document with you, either proving your identity (that is, a passport) or confirming the authority of a representative (that is, a power of attorney).
Note! Persons applying for the TIN for the first time in accordance with the established procedure do not pay the state fee.
Another thing is if you are a legal entity or an individual, intending to engage in entrepreneurial activity (IP). These persons also do not have to pay such a state duty, but at the same time, no one has canceled the state duty for registering activities, during which they assign a TIN.
Important! In the event that the certificate is lost, then it will not be possible to avoid paying the state duty (in 2015, its amount was 200 rubles).

How to get a TIN using an electronic service
To get a TIN using the "Gosuslugi" portal (section "Registration of an individual who is not an individual entrepreneur"), do the following:
Enter the site and register
Note! If you have previously registered on this site, then you do not need to do it again. Enter the site using the following data: full name (in full), mobile phone number or email.
- Fill out the proposed questionnaire and the application, which you must keep online.
- In case of incorrect filling, the application is returned to you, and you carry out the whole procedure again (naturally, following the correct filling).
- You will receive information on all stages of your application by e-mail.
- After information is received about the readiness of your document, you either personally or your representative go to the tax authority and receive a certificate.
Note! There is only one option, in order not to visit the tax organization in person - you must be the owner of an electronic or electronic digital signature (ES or EDS). In this case, you will receive a file in your mail, which shows a certified and digitally signed certificate.
How to get an electronic signature
An electronic signature is an analogue of a handwritten one, that is, it has the same legal force. Individuals use it to significantly speed up and simplify the process of interaction with various government agencies, employers and educational institutions.
Legal entities and individual entrepreneurs use EDS (EDS) in order to minimize the costs of the enterprise and increase efficiency, for example, to submit reports to the tax authorities without personal presence, receive public services through an electronic portal, participate in auctions, access specialized resources, and so on.
You can order an electronic signature in special centers that have received appropriate accreditation within the territory of Russia. Together with the EDS, you receive a certificate that contains the data of the owner of the electronic signature, the period during which it is valid, and the scope of its application.
Is it possible to find out the TIN by last name
Data on the TIN by the name of a legal entity or an individual engaged in entrepreneurial activity is quite simple to obtain. To do this, just do the following:
- go to the public services website and click on the "All Services" tab;
- click on the "Business Risks" button;
- click the button "Individual Entrepreneur/KFH";
- write the full name of the person whose TIN you are trying to find, as well as the region of his residence;

But how to find out a person's data by TIN? You are unlikely to get such information, knowing only this number.
What information can be obtained using the TIN
Every businessman is interested in having maximum useful information about his counterparty. Therefore, having his full name and TIN, he can request an extract from the USRIP at the tax organization (at the place of registration of the IP). Having this document in hand, its owner has the following information: IP registration number, date of registration, types of its activities and data on issued licenses.
Important! The following data will remain inaccessible: bank account information, data from the passport and the address at which the person is registered. This information is personal, it is released only at the request of the court or government agencies.
Debts: how to find out about them
How can I find out a person who has certain tax arrears by the TIN of an individual? To do this, go to the public services portal and in a few minutes you already have all the information you are interested in. You simply enter either the data from your passport or the TIN, and then click on the "Find Debt" button.
