"On Amendments to Article 16.1 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On the Protection of Consumer Rights" and the Federal Law "On the National Payment System"
Comment
Recall that the Russian payment card "MIR" was created within the framework of the national payment system as an alternative to the international cards VISA and MasterCard.
The first MIR cards were issued at the end of 2015. On the this moment a significant number of banks in Russia issue these cards. See the information on the website of the national payment system.
- if payment is made in an area where there is no Internet connection and access services to mobile radiotelephone communications are not provided;
- if the proceeds from the sale of goods through a trading facility for the previous calendar year amounted to less than 5 million rubles.
It follows from this rule: if an organization has several trading facilities, then the proceeds from the sale of products must be determined for each of them. The exemption from the obligation to install a terminal will apply to those facilities in which the mentioned revenue limit is not exceeded.
Recall that a building, structure, structure (parts thereof) equipped with equipment for displaying, demonstrating goods, servicing customers and making payments when selling goods is recognized as a trading facility (clause 4, article 2 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2009 No. 381-FZ) .
It is not entirely clear how to apply the new provisions in practice to sellers (performers) who not only sell goods, but also perform work and (or) provide services by taking orders in a retail facility. For example:
- The organization is primarily engaged in the service sector. At the same time, through a trading facility, it sells related products. Reception of orders and sale of products take place in one facility. It is possible that at the end of the calendar year, the revenue from all types of activities will be more than 40 million rubles, and the revenue directly from the sale of goods will be less than 5 million rubles. On the one hand, the organization is obliged to provide in such a shopping facility the possibility of accepting the MIR card from buyers, since the proceeds from entrepreneurial activity exceeded 40 million rubles. On the other hand, the organization falls under the exception, since the proceeds from the sale of goods amounted to less than 5 million rubles;
- the organization is a trading network. At the same time, in the process of selling products, it accepts orders from customers for a number of services (in particular, for packaging, delivery of sold goods, etc.). Let's assume that the revenue for the year from the sale of goods through individual retail facilities turned out to be less than 5 million rubles. At the same time, in general, trading network(including revenues for services rendered) the amount of revenue is more than 40 million rubles. Is it necessary in such a situation to place terminals for receiving cards in all outlets?
We believe that in such cases it is advisable to contact Rospotrebnadzor for clarification.
At the moment, sellers (executors) are also obliged to provide buyers with the opportunity to pay with the MIR card. However, this applies to those entities whose income from entrepreneurial activities for the previous calendar year exceeds 120 million rubles (clause 1, article 16.1 of the Law of the Russian Federation of February 7, 1992 No. 2016 No. 265).
Note that the penalties for non-compliance with this requirement have not changed. In accordance with Art. 2.4, part 4 of Art. 14.8 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation:
- an individual entrepreneur and an official of an organization may be fined from 15,000 rubles to 30,000 rubles;
- organization - in the amount of 30,000 rubles to 50,000 rubles.
For the absence of a terminal for servicing international payment cards in a trading facility, sanctions are not applied (see the letter of Rospotrebnadzor dated July 22, 2015 "On clarification of legislation").
Do public sector institutions need to issue MIR payroll cards for employees?
Soon, credit organizations will be required to transfer payments to individuals at the expense of budgetary funds only to bank accounts, transactions on which are carried out using the MIR card. The transition to such an order of payments is phased. It starts on July 1, 2017 and must end by July 1, 2020.
However, not all funds will be credited to the MIR card. Their list is limited. Yes, according to the amendments new order crediting of funds applies to (clauses "h", clause 6, article 2 of Law No. 88-FZ):
- remuneration to civil servants;
- wages of employees of state and municipal bodies, institutions, extra-budgetary funds;
- government scholarships;
- monthly lifetime allowance for judges.
Please note that Law No. 88-FZ contains a clause stating that the Government of the Russian Federation, in agreement with the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, may subsequently expand the list of such payments (paragraphs "and" paragraph 6 of Article 2 of Law No. 88-FZ).
The table shows the types of payments from the budget and the deadlines before which an account serviced by the MIR card must be opened in the name of an individual in a bank (another credit institution) in order for the bank to credit funds intended for an individual to this account (clause "c" , "e", "z" paragraph 6 of article 2 of Law No. 88-FZ).
Budget resources | Conditions for crediting funds to the account | Deadline for switching to the MIR card |
---|---|---|
remuneration of civil servants; State scholarships |
01.07.2018 | |
remuneration of civil servants; Wages of employees of state and municipal bodies, institutions, extra-budgetary funds; State scholarships |
account opening date | |
pensions and other social payments; | the bank account is open until 07/01/2017 and is serviced by other payment cards | upon expiration of the payment card, but no later than 01.01.2020 |
pensions and other social payments; Monthly life allowance for judges |
a bank account is opened for the first time from 07/01/2017 | account opening date |
For employers in the public sector, the following is important.
If an employer currently transfers salaries to employees (civil servants) to accounts that are serviced by VISA and MasterCard payment cards, he can adhere to this procedure for payments until July 1, 2018. From this date, employers must transfer remuneration or wages only to accounts to which the MIR card is linked. In particular, for this, it is possible to conclude an agreement with the bank that issues such cards on the centralized transfer of wages within the framework of a salary project.
If remuneration or wages (from the budget funds) will be paid to employees (civil servants) who first applied for opening a bank account in order to receive these payments from July 1, 2017 (for example, from this date a new employee was admitted to the organization who does not have an open bank account), the employer should check that the payroll accounts of such employees are serviced by a credit institution using a MIR card.
Note that the bank account to which the MIR card is linked will not be needed by an individual to receive the following payments from the budget (clause "g", clause 6, article 2 of Law No. 88-FZ):
- amounts of money in connection with the provision of personal income tax deductions;
- funds credited to accounts that do not provide for the implementation of transactions on them using payment cards;
- lump-sum payments or payments with a frequency less than once a year;
- payments in favor of individuals with a permanent place of residence outside the Russian Federation.
