Letter of the Ministry of Finance of the Russian Federation No. 03-05-02-03/33 of July 22, 2005 on the Taxation with the Uniform Social Tax of the Daily Allowance with Organisations Using Special Taxation Regimes and Budget-Supported Institutions

Since the fixing of the special norms of the daily allowance for taxation with the uniform social tax is not envisaged in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, organisations may use for this purpose the actual norms of the daily allowance endorsed in compliance with the legislation of the Russian Federation. For example, when generating the taxable base for the uniform agricultural tax and for the uniform tax when using the simplified system of taxation, organisations apply the norms of the daily allowance endorsed by the Decision of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 93 of February 8, 2002 on the fixing of the norms of expenses of organisations to pay out the daily or field allowance within the limits of which such expenses are qualified as other expenses pertaining to production and sale in the determination of the taxable base for the profit tax from organisations.

Budget-supported institutions are recommended to apply the norms of the daily allowance endorsed by the Decision of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 729 of October 2, 2002 on the amounts of reimbursement of expenses pertaining to service trips on the territory of the Russian Federation to employees of organisations financed from the federal budget. In this case, the daily allowance itself may be paid out in the amounts specified by the local normative act of the organisation.
