The deadline is approaching for filing a form 3-NDFL personal income tax return for 2017

LEGAL DIGEST \ 25.02.2018

Please be reminded that individuals must file their personal income tax returns with tax authorities by 3 May 2018 at the latest.

All individuals, including Russian nationals and foreign citizens, who have unearned income of which the source is in Russia, are obliged to file a form 3-NDFL tax return. Reportable unearned income means income from selling or renting out property, winning a lottery prize, or receiving an inheritance. A tax return must be also filed to claim tax deductions on expenses from the purchase of real estate, tuition fees or medical care. For the full list of cases in which the form 3-NDFL tax return must be filed and for the types of tax deductions and conditions to claim such deductions, please follow this link.

Moreover, for foreign nationals who obtained the status of a tax resident in 2017, filing a tax return is a prerequisite for recalculating and obtaining a refund of tax which was previously withheld at the rate of 30%.

If you do not file and pay at the time of the form 3-NDFL tax return, you will have to pay two fines:

  • for the failure to file a tax return — 5% of the amount, and
  • for the failure to pay tax — 20% of the personal income tax.
