What forms to include in your organization’s statistical reporting

How to determine the composition of reporting

Find out the composition of your statistical reporting on the website statreg.gks.ru. The agency confirmed that this resource contains official data - Rosstat letter dated July 26, 2016 No. 04-04-4/92-SMI.

You can also contact directly the territorial division of Rosstat at the place of registration. Informing about what forms need to be submitted and how to fill them out is the direct responsibility of the territorial divisions of Rosstat. This is set to paragraph 4 Regulations approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 No. 620.* Moreover, they are obliged to both inform and submit the forms of statistical reporting forms free of charge.

The necessary information can be found on the websites regional branches Rosstat. They are all presented in the form of an interactive map on the Rosstat portal. Such sites are organized according to a single principle. Thus, in the “Reporting” section there is a special provision for the “Statistical reporting” item. In it you can look at current federal and regional statistical reports, find instructions on how to fill them out and, most importantly, decide whether you need to submit them.

Immediately on the department’s website are tables of current statistical reporting forms and instructions for filling them out. This way you can decide on the composition of the statistical reporting of continuous observation.

The territorial statistics office requests most reporting forms and information independently. That is, a form is sent to the institution (by hand, by mail, in an electronic request), which must be filled out and submitted. The composition of reports to Rosstat was adjusted more than once in 2019.

For example, in the public sector, the frequency of “ZP” reports has been changed in terms of the social and scientific spheres of activity. Note that previously reports of the types ZP-education, ZP-science and ZP-health were submitted quarterly. Now they have become monthly.

Due to the huge number of controlled entities, Russian statistics do not always have time to send requests to all recipients. However, the absence of an information request does not exempt an organization from mandatory reporting to Rosstat in 2019. For this, the institution faces a large fine under Article 13.19 of the Administrative Code.

In order to prevent administrative penalties, Rosstat strongly recommends checking the reporting on the TIN. We'll tell you how to do this later.

Rosstat - reporting by TIN: verification algorithm

• Russian organizations;
• state authorities and local governments;

• branches, representative offices and divisions of foreign organizations operating in Russia;
• entrepreneurs.

At the same time, such respondents (including separate divisions) To register with statistical authorities, you do not need to perform any special actions. Simply submit statistical reporting in the manner approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 No. 620.

Zero reporting may not be submitted to statistics

Depending on the form of statistical reporting, if there are no indicators for filling it out, the report can either not be submitted at all or be limited to official letter to Rosstat. Source: Letter of Rosstat dated April 15, 2016 No. SE-01-3/2157-TO

In order to fill out a number of statistical reporting forms (in particular, 3-F, 1-PR, P-6, etc.), it is explicitly stated that they need to be submitted only in the presence of a corresponding observable event (for example, wage arrears, financial investments, etc. ). There is no need to submit zero reports on such forms, because by default it is considered that since this form was not submitted, it means that there is no observed phenomenon.

Rosstat explained how to submit zero statistical reporting

Zero statistical reporting can be submitted in two ways: either by sending reporting forms with “empty” indicators, or by sending an information letter in free form about the absence of relevant statistical indicators. Rosstat reported this in a letter dated May 17, 2018 No. 04-04-4/48-SMI.

Continuous and selective observation of statistical reporting

According to the provisions of Part 1 of Article 6 of the Law of November 29, 2007 No. 282-FZ, statistical observation can be 1) continuous or 2) selective.

In the first case, statistical reporting must be submitted all respondents of the study group. For example, if continuous statistical monitoring of activities in the field of trade in motor vehicles is carried out, the established forms of statistical reporting must be submitted by all organizations and entrepreneurs who, when registered with the territorial division of Rosstat, were assigned the OKVED2 code 45.11 (“Trade in passenger cars and light-duty trucks”).

If random observation is carried out, not all organizations and entrepreneurs that trade in vehicles must submit statistical reports, but only those that, by decision of Rosstat, were included in the sample.

How to find out whether an organization (entrepreneur) is included in the list of respondents subject to random statistical observation

Information about inclusion in the list of sample statistical observations, as well as statistical reporting forms and instructions for filling them out, should be communicated to organizations and entrepreneurs by the territorial divisions of Rosstat. This follows from paragraph 4 of the regulation approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 No. 620, and paragraph 4 of the Rules approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of February 16, 2008 No. 79.

However, the procedure for communicating such information to statistical respondents is not regulated by law. In practice, the territorial divisions of Rosstat solve this issue in different ways. Some of them publish on their websites lists of organizations and entrepreneurs included in the sample for compiling certain forms of statistical reporting. Find a site territorial body Rosstat (TOGS) using an interactive map on the portal http://www.gks.ru

Many Rosstat divisions use targeted mailings to deliver the necessary information to respondents.

If for some reason an organization or entrepreneur does not know whether they are included in the list of sample statistical observations, you must contact the territorial division of Rosstat to obtain the necessary information.

Statistical reporting of small businesses and entrepreneurs

The procedure for submitting statistical reporting has some features (Part 4 of Article 8 of the Law of November 29, 2007 No. 282-FZ).

Selective statistical observations are carried out:

• monthly and (or) quarterly – in relation to small and medium-sized enterprises;
• annually for micro-enterprises.

The list of small and medium-sized businesses subject to selective statistical observation is determined annually by Rosstat. Only organizations and entrepreneurs that are included in this list should submit statistical reports as part of sample observation.

This procedure follows from the provisions of Part 3 of Article 5 of the Law of July 24, 2007 No. 209-FZ and paragraph 2 of the Rules approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of February 16, 2008 No. 79.

Forms of statistical reporting

Organizations (entrepreneurs) submit statistical reports in forms approved by Rosstat (Part 4 of Article 6 of the Law of November 29, 2007 No. 282-FZ). The composition of the forms may vary depending on the type of activity of the respondents, their organizational and legal form, affiliation with small businesses, etc. A list of the most common forms of statistical reporting currently in force is presented on the Rosstat website.

Procedure and deadlines for submitting statistical reports

Statistical reporting forms are submitted in accordance with the instructions for filling them out at the addresses, within the time limits and with the frequency indicated on the forms of these forms (clause 4 provisions, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 No. 620).

Attention! For violation of deadlines for submitting statistical reports and presentation of false information administrative liability is provided.

According to paragraph 6 of the Regulations, the provision of unreliable primary statistical data is considered to be their reflection in the forms of federal statistical observation in violation of the instructions for filling them out, arithmetic or logical errors.

The same paragraph of the Regulations establishes what must be done and within what time frame if a mistake is made. "Subjects of official statistical records to whom primary statistical data are provided, if unreliable primary statistical data is detected sent within 3 days written (mail, fax, electronic) notification to respondents who provided this data.

Respondents who admitted the facts of providing unreliable primary statistical data, no later 3 days after discovery of these facts by the respondents themselves or receipt written notice from subjects of official statistical accounting provide corrected data to subjects of official statistical accounting with a covering letter containing justification for making corrections and signed by an official established in accordance with paragraph 5 of these Regulations, or the necessary explanations."

The official responsible for the presentation of statistical reporting is appointed by order of the head of the organization (clause 5 of the regulation approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 No. 620). If there is no such order, then the head of the organization bears administrative responsibility.

Another type of punishment is provided for in Article 3 of the Law of May 13, 1992 No. 2761-1 “On liability for violation of the procedure for submitting state statistical reporting.” An organization or entrepreneur must compensate Rosstat for damages that arose due to the need to correct distorted data in consolidated reporting.

Cases related to violations reported we're talking about, are considered directly by the territorial bodies of Rosstat (, Resolution of the State Statistics Committee of Russia dated February 7, 2003 No. 36).

What documents are included in statistical reporting?

What does the set of statistical reporting depend on?

The variety of forms of statistical reporting is so great that it is difficult to immediately determine which of them a particular organization or entrepreneur should represent.

Firstly, the set of forms depends on who the information is intended for. Recipients of statistical information vary. Most often, organizations and entrepreneurs submit statistical reports to Rosstat and its regional branches. But, in addition, the Bank of Russia and many other government agencies can collect and process statistical information. This is established by Articles 2 and 8 of the Law of November 29, 2007 No. 282-FZ.

Secondly, the composition of statistical reporting may depend on the location of the organization and its type of activity. So, there are federal and regional forms. They, in turn, can be divided into general and sectoral, as well as those that are rented from time to time or just once. Forms of federal statistical observation, including reports, are approved by Rosstat (Part 4 of Article 6 of the Law of November 29, 2007 No. 282-FZ). Regional statistical reporting is approved by local authorities or government agencies authorized by them.

Thirdly, the composition of the reporting depends on the type of observation within which it must be submitted:

1. continuous, that is, mandatory for all organizations and entrepreneurs in a particular group of research;
2. selective – mandatory for specially selected organizations and entrepreneurs.
