Insurance premiums in 2019.

Until 2018, fixed insurance premiums were calculated based on the minimum wage in force on January 1 of the current year. Since 2018, self-payments have been decoupled from the minimum wage.

For 2019, individual entrepreneur with annual income 300,000 rub. or less they only pay 2 payment for yourself for the total amount 36 238 rub.

Individual entrepreneurs with annual income more than 300,000 rub. pay for themselves ( additionally to the above amount RUB 36,238) 1% from income, exceeding 300,000 rub.

Pension insurance contributions

Firstly individual entrepreneurs (IP) pay fixed pension contributions. Pension contributions in 2019 are RUB 29,354 per year (RUB 7,338.5 per quarter, RUB 2,446.16(6) per month).

If your annual income exceeded 300,000 rubles., You need to pay an additional 1% of this excess no later than July 1 of the following year. For example, in a year you received 450,000 rubles, which means you need to pay (450,000 - 300,000) x 1% = 1,500 rubles. Despite the fact that in essence this part of the contributions is not fixed, they are still called fixed. The amount of pension contributions for 2018 is limited above the amount of 212,360 rubles, i.e. even if you earned 30 million rubles in a year (1% of 30 million - 300,000 rubles), you only need to pay 212,360 rubles. (limit for 2019 - RUB 234,832)

pension contribution in the form "PD (tax)".

Medical insurance premiums

Secondly individual entrepreneurs pay health insurance premiums. The medical insurance premium in 2019 is 6884 rub. in year(i.e. 1721 rubles per quarter, 573.6(6) rubles per month). These contributions are based on income exceeding RUB 300,000. NOT are paid.

You can see an example of filling out a receipt for payment of a medical contribution using the “PD (tax)” form.

Payment of fixed insurance premiums

  1. Payment terms - no later than 31th of December current year. 1% of excess of RUB 300,000. - not later July 1 next year.
  2. You can pay in any amount and at any time (within the deadlines specified in the previous paragraph). Choose a payment scheme that is more profitable for you (to reduce the simplified tax system).
  3. Contributions to the tax office are paid at the place of registration of the individual entrepreneur.
  4. All of the above receipts are issued in the form No. PD (tax) or by form No. PD-4sb (tax) and are accepted for payment only in Sberbank(If an individual entrepreneur has a current account in any bank, then you can pay from it; no additional interest is charged for this).
  5. If you are registered as an individual entrepreneur not since the beginning of the year- you do not need to pay fees for the whole year, but only for the time that you are registered (to accurately calculate the payment amount and prepare all receipts, use an accounting service).
  6. If you combine the activities of an individual entrepreneur with work under an employment contract, and the employer is already paying contributions for you, you don’t care need to pay the specified fixed fees on behalf of the individual entrepreneur.
  7. The easiest way to generate a receipt (or payment order) for payment of contributions is to use free official service of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation.

Reducing the simplified tax system for the amount of contributions

  1. The simplified tax system “income” tax (6%) can be reduced by the amount of fixed insurance premiums paid.
  2. To reduce advance payments for the simplified tax system, contributions must be paid in the period for which advance payments are made. For example, you want to reduce the advance payment for half a year - this means that contributions must be paid not later the end of the six months - i.e. until June 30.
  3. Probably the simplest and most profitable option is to pay contributions to first quarter- this way you can reduce the advance payment of the simplified tax system for the first quarter, and if, after subtracting the amount of paid contributions from the advance payment of the simplified tax system, there is still some amount left, you can reduce the tax for the six months by it, etc.
    • Example: in the 1st quarter, contributions in the amount of 10,000 rubles were paid. Income for the 1st quarter is 100,000 rubles, 6% of 100,000 rubles. - 6,000 rub. We reduce the advance payment by 10,000 rubles. - it turns out that for the 1st quarter there is no need to pay an advance payment under the simplified tax system. By 4,000 rubles, which remain after subtracting 6,000 - 10,000, you can reduce the advance payment for the six months.
  4. You can also reduce your tax by the amount of contributions paid from exceeding 300,000 rub. (1% of the excess, which is paid no later than July 1).
  5. Don't forget to include information about paid contributions that reduce the simplified tax system tax in your tax return.

Reporting on fixed payments

Paid receipts of fixed insurance premiums be sure to save. Reporting since 2012 for individual entrepreneurs without employees (paying contributions only for myself) - canceled!. To find out whether your payments have reached their destination, call your tax office or use the “Personal Account of an Individual Entrepreneur” service.

The above information is for individual entrepreneurs without employees. For individual entrepreneurs with employees and LLCs, the information on the page about

Reforming the pension system in Russia encourages every worker to be aware of the amount and when the employer makes contributions to the Pension Fund from his salary. After all, the larger the amount of payments, the larger the funded part of the future pension provision of a Russian citizen.

Unfortunately, not all employers and accountants are conscientious. Everyone needs to know how much the percentage deducted to the Pension Fund is in 2017, but it is better to constantly keep the situation under your own control. If money does not flow into the Pension Fund for a long time, it is more difficult to defend your rights and prove the illegality of the employer’s actions than to prevent future mistakes and injustice.

Amount of contributions to the Pension Fund in 2017

There is no fixed amount of payments made to the Pension Fund for an employee of an enterprise in 2017. The part of the salary that must be sent to the Pension Fund is determined individually, in accordance with the amount of the salary.

As a percentage, contributions amount to 22% of accrued wages included in the company’s financial statements. That is, if a worker receives 7,000 rubles on a bank card, 1,540 rubles are deducted from this earnings every month.

In addition to contributions to the Pension Fund, personal income tax is charged, which in this case amounts to 1,300 rubles.

Why check the timeliness of salary contributions?

Persons who devote time to monitoring the timeliness of contributions to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation can be sure that their future pension will not suffer due to the negligence or irresponsibility of the employer.

The easiest way is to visit the company’s accounting department every 3 months and take written information about the deductions made. After 3 months of overdue contributions to the Pension Fund, it will be extremely difficult to defend your right in court.

Some employees, feeling embarrassed in front of their superiors, do not request information from an accountant, and do not use their democratic right to know how the employer distributes his insurance premiums. This approach can hardly be called correct - if the state has provided the opportunity to be aware of the movement of one’s own funds, it would be stupid to refuse it.

Reasons why an employer does not make tax contributions

When can an employer not make tax contributions for an employee of his company? There may be several reasons:

  1. The state obliges contributions to be made if an employment contract is concluded and signed between the employer and the worker, that is, the employment is official. If there is no such agreement, the employer actually has no obligations to the employee. Even the fact that he pays wages is already good; according to the law, he may not do even that.
  2. The employer of labor deliberately hides from making tax contributions, and this is already a crime.
  3. An individual entrepreneur acts as an employer.
  4. Negligence of employees in the accounting department is very rare; this applies more to newcomers performing duties that they do not really know, and therefore cannot correctly accrue and calculate tax amounts from employees’ wages.

How to find out the payment of taxes in the Pension Fund

The worker’s right to know whether taxes in the amount of 22% are transferred to the Pension Fund is specified in Article 14 of the Federal Code entitled “On individual accounting of compulsory pension insurance.” Moreover, doing this is as easy as shelling pears:

  1. On the State Services website https://www.gosuslugi.ru.

You must go through the registration procedure - enter your data and email. To find out the amount of contributions to the Pension Fund, select the standard format at the registration stage. In the window that appears, fill in the phone number where you could be contacted, passport information, and pension insurance number.

How much and who makes contributions to the Pension Fund? What are these funds used for?

These issues concern not only employers, but also employees. Any future pensioner, that is, each of us. After all, the amount of contributions to the Pension Fund directly determines in the future. It would be a good idea to check the reliability of your employer in terms of payment of contributions.

Until 2010, a unified social tax was established in Russia. After 01/01/2010, instead of paying such a tax, mandatory insurance contributions to state funds were introduced. This is a pension fund, social insurance fund and compulsory health insurance fund. The Pension Fund administers insurance contributions for pensions and health insurance.

Who makes contributions to the Pension Fund and when?

Contributions to the Pension Fund are a guarantee of security for the citizen. These are measures taken by the state to ensure payments to pensioners in the future. , and so on. At the same time, insurance contributions also provide the payment of some social benefits (), and fixed payments towards pensions.

The following are required to make contributions to the Pension Fund:

  • organizations that make payments under labor and paid (for remuneration) civil contracts to individuals;
  • individual entrepreneurs: for themselves and those persons to whom they paid money or otherwise paid for labor, work, services under any kind of contracts;
  • individuals, if they have made payments under contracts and in the case where they are not individual entrepreneurs;
  • lawyers, notaries and other categories of self-employed citizens.

That is, even in everyday life, if we use the services of another person, we are obliged to make contributions to the Pension Fund for such individuals. In what follows, we will refer to all payers of contributions to the Pension Fund as employers. Since currently the main payer is organizations and individual entrepreneurs.

The amount of contributions to the Pension Fund for pensions by employers

Let’s immediately make a reservation that, unlike personal income tax, which is calculated based on the employee’s salary, bonuses, and regional coefficient, insurance contributions are not included in wages. That is, the employee receives wages minus personal income tax. But the employer also pays money to the Pension Fund based on the employee’s income. However, this amount is not included in the employee's salary. This means that it is not deducted directly from earnings.

The actual amount of contributions to the Pension Fund depends on the category of the payer. For organizations that are subject to the general taxation regime, i.e. for most, in 2019 this amount will be 22%. And plus 10% in the event that the size of the base (total income) for each employee is more than 1,150,000 rubles. This limit will also change in 2020. Every year the Government of the Russian Federation adopts a resolution establishing this size. The base is determined separately for each employee for each month from the beginning of deductions for him and on a cumulative basis.

Since 2019, organizations that are on a simplified taxation system, individual entrepreneurs on patents, are switching to general tariffs. In 2017-2018 they contributed 20%. Now – 22%. And plus 10% if they exceed the maximum base.

Additional tariffs for insurance contributions to the Pension Fund have been introduced for employers who have workplaces with hazardous and hazardous industries, i.e. in favor of persons entitled to a preferential pension. The tariff is determined based on an assessment of working conditions and the assigned class.

Reduced tariffs of the Tax Code (Article 427) are provided for charitable organizations on a simplified taxation system, for organizations operating in the field of information technology development, etc.

Deductions must be made before the 15th of every month(payment is for the previous month).

Contributions to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation by individual entrepreneurs and self-employed citizens

The self-employed population (lawyers, heads of the KHL, etc.)) pays a fixed contribution to the Pension Fund for themselves. In 2019 it is 29,354 rubles. And if the income exceeds 300,000 rubles, then plus 1%. It is from the amount of income exceeding these 300,000 rubles. In 2020, the fixed payment is RUB 32,448. Such payment is made before December 31 by each individual entrepreneur for himself, as well as by persons with the status of lawyer, private notary, etc.

Self-employed citizens who pay a special tax - 4 or 6% (for now an experiment in some regions) payment of contributions to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation depends on their personal desire.

How to check the amount of contributions to the Pension Fund

Pension contributions generated on an individual personal account can be found through the government services portal. You can also order a certificate on the Pension Fund website, in your personal account on the Pension Fund website. Or by contacting the Pension Fund in person at your place of residence. You must have SNILS and a passport with you. Another person can find out information about contributions to the Pension Fund only if the corresponding information is available.

An employer cannot violate the rules and overcharge deductions from wages. To know exactly for what purposes the written-off funds are used and what is the maximum amount, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the latest information on the topic.

General information

Before you figure out which funds deductions from salary go to, it’s worth finding out what payments in favor of an employee are from a legal point of view.

Wages are the remuneration that an employer provides to an employee for carrying out work activities.

It can be issued in kind. However, in most cases, the organization provides the employee with a cash payment.

Salary may include:

  • salary;
  • incentive payments;
  • other transfers specified in current legislation.

The employer is obliged to comply.

To find out all the nuances of the process and find out the amount of deductions, it is worth familiarizing yourself in detail with the features of each of the procedures performed.

Which funds go to?

The list of funds to which contributions must be made is clearly established by current legislation.

By withholding part of the employee’s salary, the employer is obliged to send the funds received to make payments to:

  • MHIF.

Deductions are necessary so that government bodies can ensure the implementation of the citizen's constitutional rights to health care, pensions, social insurance and medical care.

Pension

According to the rules, the employer is obliged to send 22% of the employee’s total accrued wages to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.

This is a big financial burden. However, thanks to the deduction, the employee will be able to count on a decent pension in the future.

Statistics show that a number of organizations are seeking to reduce the official amount of wages in order not to make contributions to various funds. Such companies can promise the employee a significant increase in actual payments. However, experts advise not to cooperate with such organizations.

Such behavior will significantly reduce the size of your pension in the future.

To the tax office

It is paid from the employee's salary. It is the main type of payment and is collected from the salary of each specialist.

Tax is calculated at the time of accrual of income. Payment occurs when a person receives a salary.

The amount of personal income tax withholding is 13% of earnings. According to, an employee can take advantage of tax deductions. They can be standard or social.

The first type of deduction is provided if the employee has a child. For the first offspring, 1,400 rubles are credited, and for subsequent babies or children with disabilities - 3,000 rubles.

This means that the size of the tax base from which contributions to the state are levied can be reduced by this amount.

Other

In addition to the main deductions, money is collected from wages and sent to the Social Insurance Fund and the Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund.

5.1% of salary is transferred to the compulsory health insurance fund.

There is a limit on the amount. If it is achieved, the rate will be reduced to 10%. The amount of contributions to the Social Insurance Fund is 2.9%. The amount is sent to the payroll.

Some companies provide additional payments. So. A number of organizations ask workers to contribute to health and accident insurance.

The amount of deductions is determined by the organization. The payment amount varies from 0.2 to 8.5%.

What percentage?

The amount of payroll deductions can vary significantly depending on where the funds are sent.

Today, the following deductions must be made from the amount provided as wages:

  • 22% towards the calculation of a future pension;
  • 13% towards payment of personal income tax;
  • 5.1% to the Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund;
  • 2.9% to the Social Insurance Fund;
  • from 0.2 to 8.5% for insurance against accidents that may occur at work (the exact amount depends on the risk class, which includes the profession and position of the employee).

Calculation procedure

Not all contributions are collected from the employee. Part of this is paid by the employer.

According to the rules, only 13% can be withheld from an employee's salary, levied as income tax. The remaining amount is taken from the wage fund. The employer must pledge it in advance.

Let's say an employee receives 10,000 rubles. In addition to this amount, the employer is required to pay a minimum of RUB 3,200. to funds and for the benefit of the state.

This amount consists of the following deductions:

  • 2200 rub. to the Pension Fund of Russia;
  • 310 rub. in the FSS;
  • 510 rub. to the MHIF.

For this reason, the employer will have to invest not 10,000 rubles in the payroll, but 13,200 rubles. For the company, this figure will be the employee’s income.

Based on the above, in 2019 the employer is obliged to contribute at least an additional 30% to the payroll for making contributions to non-budgetary government organizations.

Some countries have a different payment method. The company provides the employee with the entire amount earned by him for a specified period, as well as a receipt with payments recorded in it that are to be made to various funds. The citizen pays taxes and current contributions on his own.

Employers are key participants in the Russian pension system. Insurance contributions for compulsory pension insurance, which they accrued and paid to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation from payments and other remunerations in favor of employees, are the future pensions of their employees and the payment of pensions to current pensioners.

The Pension Fund of Russia was the administrator of insurance contributions for compulsory pension and compulsory health insurance.

The payers of insurance premiums were:

  • persons making payments and other remuneration to individuals:
  • organizations;
  • individual entrepreneurs (including heads of peasant farms);
  • individuals who are not individual entrepreneurs;
  • self-employed population: individual entrepreneurs, lawyers, notaries engaged in private practice, arbitration managers who do not make payments and other remuneration to individuals and pay insurance premiums for themselves.

Procedure for paying insurance premiums

15th of every month- the last day for payment of insurance premiums for compulsory pension and compulsory health insurance for the previous month. Payments had to be made monthly. If the last day of the period fell on a weekend or a non-working holiday, then the next working day following it was considered the end of the period. Accrued but unpaid insurance premiums were considered arrears and subject to collection.

22% - the basic tariff of insurance contributions for compulsory pension insurance.

+ 10% tariff of insurance premiums, if the amount of the base for calculating insurance premiums from the employer is greater than the established amount .

5,1% - tariff of insurance premiums for compulsory health insurance.

796,000 rubles- the maximum value of the base from which insurance contributions to the compulsory pension insurance system were paid in 2016 (in accordance with Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 26, 2015 No. 1265).

IMPORTANT! Since 2015, payment of insurance premiums for compulsory health insurance to the MHIF budget is made at established rates from all, without limitation, amounts of payments and other remuneration in favor of an individual for the corresponding financial year, with the exception of amounts not subject to insurance premiums in accordance with Article 9 of the Federal Law No. 212-FZ.

The base for calculating insurance premiums was determined separately for each employee from the beginning of the billing period at the end of each calendar month on an accrual basis. When calculating insurance premiums at the additional tariff for certain categories of employers with jobs in hazardous and hazardous industries, the provision for limiting the base for calculating insurance premiums was not applied.

Insurance premiums for each type of insurance had to be paid in separate settlement documents, which were sent to the bank indicating the corresponding Federal Treasury accounts and budget classification codes.

Insurance contributions for compulsory pension insurance had to be paid without dividing into insurance and savings parts.

In the absence of a bank, insurance premium payers - individuals could pay insurance premiums free of charge through the cash desk of the local administration or through the federal postal service.

IMPORTANT! Employers had to determine the amount of insurance contributions to be transferred to the relevant state extra-budgetary funds precisely - in rubles and kopecks. Until 2015, the amount of insurance premiums to be transferred to the relevant funds was determined in full rubles.

Payment of insurance premiums for compulsory health insurance, as well as preparation of reports on paid and accrued payments, followed the same scheme as for compulsory pension insurance. When transferring insurance premiums to compulsory health insurance funds, the policyholder was required to indicate his registration number in payment orders.

IMPORTANT! Since 2015, banks were required to issue to authorities monitoring the payment of insurance premiums certificates about the availability of bank accounts and (or) cash balances in the accounts, statements of transactions on the accounts of organizations, individual entrepreneurs in banks within three days from the date of receipt of a reasoned request body for control over the payment of insurance premiums (The procedure for banks to submit information on the availability of accounts, on cash balances in accounts, statements of transactions on accounts at the request of territorial bodies of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, as well as relevant forms of certificates and statements, was approved by the Resolution of the Board of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation dated October 14, 2015 No. 377p).

IMPORTANT! Since 2015, pension contributions have been calculated from payments to foreign citizens and stateless persons (with the exception of highly qualified specialists) temporarily staying in the Russian Federation, regardless of the validity period of the concluded employment contracts.

Additional tariffs for compulsory pension insurance

Since 2013, an additional tariff of insurance contributions to the Russian Pension Fund has been introduced for employers who have workplaces with hazardous and hazardous industries. Additional tariffs apply to payments and other remuneration in favor of individuals employed in the types of work specified in paragraphs 1 and 2-18 of part 1 of Article 30 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 400-FZ “On Insurance Pensions”.

On December 28, 2013, Federal Law No. 426-FZ “On Special Assessment of Working Conditions” was adopted, according to which insurers are obliged to ensure the safety of workers while working, and their workplaces must comply with state regulatory labor protection requirements. Depending on the results of a special assessment of the working conditions created by the employer for its employees, the amount of additional tariffs for insurance contributions to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, which have been paid since 2014, is established. The more dangerous or harmful working conditions are established based on the results of a special assessment, the higher the additional tariff of insurance contributions will need to be paid by the employer to the Pension Fund of Russia.

In accordance with the law, working conditions are divided into four classes according to the degree of harmfulness and (or) danger - optimal (class 1), acceptable (class 2), harmful (class 3) and dangerous (class 4). Assessment of working conditions and certification of workplaces is carried out by a commission of representatives of the employer’s organization at least once every 5 years. The results of certification of workplaces for working conditions, carried out in accordance with the procedure in force before the entry into force of Law No. 426-FZ, are used when determining the amount of additional tariffs of insurance contributions to the Pension Fund of Russia in relation to workplaces, the working conditions of which, according to the results of certification recognized as harmful and (or) dangerous, until December 31, 2018 inclusive.

When calculating insurance premiums at an additional tariff for certain categories of employers who have jobs in hazardous and hazardous industries, the provision for limiting the base for calculating insurance premiums does not apply.

If the employer does not conduct a special assessment of working conditions, then he pays an additional rate of insurance contributions for compulsory pension insurance in 2016 according to List No. 1 - 9%, according to List No. 2 and “small lists” - 6%.

When conducting a special assessment of working conditions, the following additional tariffs are applied:

Collection of arrears of insurance contributions to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation

The responsibility for collecting arrears in insurance contributions for compulsory pension and compulsory health insurance, as well as penalties and fines, is assigned to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.

Organizations and individual entrepreneurs

If the employer does not pay or does not fully pay insurance premiums on time, then this obligation is compulsorily fulfilled. Before a decision on collection is made, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation sends the payer of insurance premiums a demand for payment of arrears on insurance premiums, penalties and fines. After the period established in the payment request expires (but no later than two months), the Pension Fund makes a decision on collection, which is also brought to the attention of the payer within six days.

IMPORTANT! The Pension Fund sends an order for the transfer of insurance premiums to the bank where the insurance premium payer's accounts are opened. Collection can be made from settlement (current) accounts in Russian currency, and if they are insufficient, in foreign currency. In this case, the exchange rate of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation established on the date of sale of foreign currency is used. Expenses associated with the sale of foreign currency are borne by the payer of insurance premiums.

Insurance premiums are not collected from the deposit account of the insurance premium payer unless the deposit agreement has expired. In the presence of the specified agreement, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation may give the bank an order to transfer funds from the deposit account to the settlement (current) account of the payer of insurance premiums upon expiration of the deposit agreement, if by this time the Fund’s order sent to this bank to transfer insurance premiums has not been executed.

If there are insufficient funds in the accounts of the insurance premium payer or no funds at all, then the order to transfer insurance premiums is executed as funds are received into the account.

The Pension Fund of the Russian Federation can also recover insurance premiums from other property of the employer by sending a decision on recovery to the bailiff service. In this case, the decision on collection is adopted within one year after the expiration of the deadline for fulfilling the requirement to pay insurance premiums, penalties and fines.

Individuals who are not individual entrepreneurs

If an individual who is not an entrepreneur does not pay insurance premiums on time, the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation applies to the court with a claim to collect them from property, including funds in bank accounts and cash. The claim may be filed within six months after the expiration of the deadline for fulfilling the requirement to pay insurance premiums. A petition for seizure of property may be attached to the statement of claim.
