Decision of the Higher Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation No. 7849/06 of September 1, 2006



The Higher Arbitration Court of the Russian Federation recognised that the provisions of the rules of application in 2001 of the procedure of restructuring of the debts of legal entities in taxes and fees, as well as the debts in accrued penalties and fines to the federal budget, endorsed by the Decision of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1002 of September 3, 1999 endorsed by the Order of the Ministry of Taxation of Russia No. BG-3-10/191 of June 21, 2001 are in compliance with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. The Decision was stipulated by the application of the open-type joint stock company which stated that the challenged items of the rules, while emphasising the consequences of violation by the taxpayer of the schedule of redemption of payments during the restructuring of the debts in tax payments, state groundlessly the terms and procedure of termination of the respite and extension schedule of their payment that are different for the terms and procedure of termination of the respite and extension schedule of transfer of tax payments specified in the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.

The challenged Items 12 and 13 of the rules reproduce the content of Items 7 and 8 of the procedure of restructuring of the debts of legal entities in taxes and fees, as well as the debts in accrued penalties and fines to the federal budget, endorsed by the Decision of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1002 of September 3, 1999 that was adopted in execution of Article 115 of the Law on the budget for the year 1999 and was not invalidated.

The Decision rejects the argument stating that the mentioned items of the rules, while defining the procedure of changing of the time limits of transfer of the tax and fee different from the one envisaged in Chapter 9 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, are not in compliance with Item 2 of Article 61 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. This conclusion of the applicant is not true, since it does not take account of the provisions of Item 1 of Article 63 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation stating that the body authorised to take decisions changing the time limits of payment of taxes and fees to the federal budget is the federal body of executive power in charge of control and enforcement in the sphere of taxes and fees (except for the cases envisaged in Subitems 3-5 of the present Item and Item 2 of the present Article).

Moreover, the challenged provisions comply with Item 3 of Article 68 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, whereby if the interested party violates the terms of the granted respite, extension schedule, the respite, extension schedule may be subject to an early termination at the decision of the authorised body having taken the decision on the appropriate change of the time limit of execution of the duty to pay the taxes and fees.
