Russia determined the number of legal miners in Russia

On April 1, 722 companies and individual entrepreneurs were registered in the Federal Tax Service (Federal Tax Service), of which 116 are mining infrastructure operators, and 606 are miners. According to the service, most legal miners in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, the Irkutsk Region and Tatarstan. He writes about this RBC Crypto.

Data processing centers (centers) that provide infrastructure for miners, in addition to the listed regions, are also registered in the Murmansk, Saratov, Voronezh regions, in Moscow, St. Petersburg, the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, the Altai Territory and a number of other regions, the Pro Tax program said.

All legal entities and individual entrepreneurs in Russia, producing cryptocurrency, are required to register in the special register of the Federal Tax Service. Evils do not need to do this if they are engaged in mining, using electricity for no more than 6 thousand kWh per month.

Also, all miners (individuals, individual entrepreneurs and companies) must monthly report on the extracted cryptocurrency. Vitaly Kolesnikov, Deputy Head of the Federal Tax Service of Russia, recalled that until April 25, miners-legal entities should first submit income tax declarations.

Kolesnikov noted that for the convenience of calculating the tax base for miners, a page with cryptocurrency courses and trading volumes among the “foreign trading organizers” – the largest crypto -rhizas appeared on the Miner website. The service sees the “tax potential” from the development of the mining industry, including interesting and the regions whose budget will come from miners registered there, the deputy head of the Federal Tax Service said.

He drew attention to the fact that it is too early to assess the size of the first upcoming tax revenues from mining. According to him, first of all, it is necessary to withdraw the industry industry from the shadow of the shadow:

“It is important for us today to legalize the market, make it absolutely transparent, normal, as in any other industry,” Kolesnikov emphasized.

One of the reasons why illegal miners are in no hurry to declare themselves in the Federal Tax Service is the uncertainty with equipment that was previously imported according to gray schemes, since when registering in the tax register, all data on devices must be indicated. “Minter amnesty” or the legalization of mining equipment illegally imported into Russia is necessary, according to the State Duma. This issue has already been discussed with the participation of the Federal Customs Service.
