Types of ogrn. What is a legal entity ogrn and what is it for? Required documents for registration

When starting their own business, merchants are faced with huge amount identification and classification numbers that are assigned to their young enterprise. The business owner should be aware of how all of these identifiers differ from each other. Now we will tell you about the OGRN.

OGRN: what is it for

More recently, there were much fewer identifiers in Russia. This is understandable: after all, there were not many enterprises, and it was easier for the authorized bodies to classify them and keep statistics. Thus, JSC and LLC were assigned (individual taxpayer number), and this suited everyone.

Over the years, new business structures appeared, which entailed changes in the field legal relationship... Now the regulatory authorities could no longer be content with the TIN certificate. In 2001, a law came into force regulating the registration procedure for legal entities. This law was the first to record such a concept as:

OGRN- main state registration number.

The number is assigned to all organizations. It contains data on the form of ownership, date of foundation, territory in which the enterprise is registered, and the branch of the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate (Inspectorate of the Federal Tax Service) to which it belongs.

Decoding of the OGRN number

Many people know that TIN is just a serial number. OGRN is another matter. It is decrypted according to certain rules and contains more information than TIN.

Consider one of the codes (1-14-77-46-30576-2) and decipher it.

The code is formed by 13 digits in the format С-ГГ-КК-НН-ХХХХХ-Ч.

  • The code begins with the number 1, which is a sign of attribution and indicates that the number has been assigned to a legal entity. 2 - an attribute of a state institution. The number 3 at the beginning of the number is the identity of the individual entrepreneur (in this case, the number is called not OGRN, but).
  • This is followed by two numbers (14), thanks to which we find out in what year the enterprise was formed (in this case, in 2014).
  • Then there are two numbers indicating the place of registration legal entity... Each subject of the federation has its own number, fixed by law. 77 is the code of Moscow. Conclusions are not difficult to draw.
  • The numbers from the fourth to the seventh (in our example - 7746) - this is an indication of the branch of the tax service in the region. Specification is provided by the sixth and seventh digits. This example refers to the 46th Interdistrict Inspectorate of Moscow.
  • What is meant by the next five digits (30576)? - The number of the decision that gave birth to this organization. The tax service throughout the year enters the register with fresh data on decisions, but in this case we are talking only about serial numbers.
  • The final digit is a check digit and serves to verify the authenticity of the OGRN code. To find out if a certain combination of numbers is an OGRN code, you can use the OGRN online calculator or a special formula.

Of course, there are no two completely identical OGRN codes. Under the current accounting procedure, the numbers can be repeated no earlier than a century later (two digits indicating the date of foundation are responsible for this). In addition, the region number in combination with the branch number of the IFTS forms a unique combination, so that repetitions are excluded. A person who knows how to decipher the OGRN has the ability to extract much more useful information from this code than from the INN.

OGRN counterparty check

The reliability of the counterparty is the key to successful cooperation. Therefore, before concluding a deal, you must at least make sure that the organization (IP) with which you are going to deal really exists. The easiest way in this situation is to go to the FTS website and open a section containing information about entrepreneurs and legal entities. If you know the OGRN of your prospective partner, then you can easily find the organization itself, or make sure that such a number is not registered.

There is also a more complicated (but more reliable!) Way - submitting a request to tax office... As a result, you will receive a statement confirming the information about the counterparty.

As for cooperation with an individual entrepreneur, knowing the name of the prospective partner, you can also find out his OGRNIP.

Why do you need to carefully study the information about the counterparty?

  • Firstly, to be sure that the legal entity is really registered.
  • Secondly, to ensure the accuracy of the securities provided by the counterparty.
  • Thirdly, to check the TIN, clarify the powers of the management and the legal address.
  • Fourth, to know for sure that the counterparty is not included in the "black list" of the Federal Tax Service.

Sometimes you can see that the PSRN and TIN contain different codes of the tax office. There is nothing reprehensible in this, because the issuance of the TIN is carried out by the local tax, and the OGRN is provided by the interdistrict.

OGRN is one of the most informative identifiers. It gives the entrepreneur the opportunity to verify the reliability of the counterparty.

Knowledge about the purpose of the PSRN and the correct interpretation of the data allows you to minimize the risk of difficulties in work. This does not apply to the holder of the PSRN, but it is useful for counterparties to know such information. Previously, only the TIN was enough, but after an increase in the number of enterprises, the Russian government decided to introduce an additional accounting system.

In 2001, a new one appeared the federal law concerning the regulation of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs. Then the concepts of OGRNP and OGRN appeared. More than 15 years have passed, but many people still confuse ORGN and TIN. It is about the decoding of the abbreviation OGRN in accounting and other areas that we will discuss below.

Main state registration number: what is it

  • when searching solely by name, the user only needs to indicate the unique part of the organization's name (without quotes, special symbols, abbreviations and indications of the organizational and legal form);
  • in cases where the name includes more than one word (including words separated by a hyphen), only one of the words can be specified. At the same time, in order to obtain a more accurate result, it is recommended to avoid the use of too common words;
  • the field "Subject of the Russian Federation" will allow you to restrict the search only to the framework of the corresponding region;
  • when using the "Date of registration" field, you must enter data in the format DD.MM.YYYY.

Everything is quite simple: you need to divide the 12-digit number (that is, those 12 OGRN digits that precede the last digit) by 11. The remainder of the division and is written as the last, thirteenth digit of the number. In this case, the number 112774650978 is divisible by 11 without a remainder, therefore, the last digit is "0".

What is OGRN and OGRNIP and how to decipher them

For some time now, the OGRN has been the main number characterizing a taxpayer company in the territory of the Russian Federation. Its content contains enough information about the owner. If you know how to correctly decipher the OGRN, then you can immediately learn a lot about the company just by its number alone.

Any enterprise today is endowed with a lot of different numbers and identifiers. Each of them performs some specific task. There was a time when there were not so many enterprises as today, and the tax authorities were satisfied that each LLC, OJSC or CJSC had a taxpayer identification number (TIN). Later, new forms of ownership appeared (IP, Civil Code, OO, etc.), and the existing ones began to evolve in such a way that one identifier was not enough to distinguish them. Since the TIN contains only information: to which inspection of the Federal Tax Service the enterprise is assigned, and under what serial number it is registered there. No more information can be obtained from the INN, no matter how hard we try. Therefore, after some time, or rather, after the entry into force of the Federal Law No. 29-ФЗ dated 08.08.2001, "On state registration of legal entities" appeared new form numbering of enterprises, institutions and organizations - OGRN (main state registration number). This identifier contains complete information about the form of ownership of the enterprise, the date of the company's creation, the subject of the Russian Federation to which the company is assigned, and the tax inspectorate to which the enterprise is assigned.

OGRN, OKPO, INN

One of the official resources is the website of the Federal Tax Service, where you can find OKPO using other details of the organization. Another site is called the OKPO Portal. It provides direct access to databases of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs of the Russian Federation,

  • unification of all state information resources about business entities;
  • optimization of information exchange between ministries and departments;
  • simplification of the collection and analysis of statistical data to improve forecasting economic development country;
  • creation of a single information space within the Russian Federation;
  • introduction automated systems accounting and data processing in the relevant government agencies.

OGRN codes decryption

  1. The first number (letter A) means to which person the registration belongs. Rights can belong to a legal entity, individual entrepreneur or government agency. Depending on the accessory, the corresponding number is affixed. For a legal entity - number 1 (one), for an individual entrepreneur - number 3 (three), government agencies- number 2 (two);
  • The fourth and fifth digits (letters BB) state in which subject Russian Federation the institution is registered. Each constituent entity of the Russian Federation is assigned an individual serial number in accordance with article 65 of the Constitution. For example, for the city of St. Petersburg the ordinal number is 47. Very often this number is called the region number, and it can be seen on car numbers, in the certificate of state registration of property;

    Decryption and verification of OGRN codes

    1. Much more decisions are made on the registration of individual entrepreneurs than on the formation of a legal entity, therefore the number of the entry that fixes the creation of a new individual entrepreneur in the state register , has 9 digits instead of five.
      Thus, if OGRNIP is 3-14-77-854396754-9, then the decision number in the state register will be 854396754.
    2. The calculation of the check number will also be slightly different. In order to find out the correctness of the last digit of the registration number, its the first 14 digits must be divided by 13.
      If the resulting remainder matches the last value in the specified number, then it is valid.
    • The next number - a pair of digits - indicates year, in which the entry on the creation of this organization is entered in the state register . Since the number "14" is in second place, respectively, the year of entry is 2014.
    • Two more digits after the year of entry indicate per subject of the Russian Federation, in which the registered organization is located . The number "37" in the case under review indicates that the organization is located in the Ivanovo region. All numbers of the subjects of the Federation are fixed in Article 65 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and are indicated in strict accordance with it.
    • The next is a couple of numbers - in the given example it is "02" - which is a code designation tax office in a single specific region. Thus, you can find out exactly the place where the legal entity was registered.
    • Pointing to record numbers in the public registry are contained in the following identifier. These are five digits that will tell you the ordinal number of the entry in the state registers. In the example above, the entry would be 87345.

    What is OGRN

    More recently, there were much fewer identifiers in Russia. This is understandable: after all, there were not many enterprises, and it was easier for the authorized bodies to classify them and keep statistics. Thus, JSCs and LLCs were assigned a TIN (individual taxpayer number), and this suited everyone.

    Over the years, new business structures have appeared, which entailed changes in the field of legal relations. Now the regulatory authorities could no longer be content with the TIN certificate. In 2001, a law came into force regulating the registration procedure for legal entities. This law was the first to record such a concept as:

    What is the OGRN of a legal entity

    You can see what the OGRN certificate looks like below. The formalities for obtaining a registration number can be time-consuming. For this, there are special legal companies that can be entrusted with the conduct of all registration activities. You will save time by paying for this service.

    Only those companies that have been registered in the regions and large cities of Russia can receive the OGRN. Foreign companies register in their country. When drawing up contracts, they have the right to use the number received during registration. Therefore, OGRN is not assigned to them.

    What is INN, PSRN, KPP

    The register is open, that is, any person has the right to apply to the registering authority with a request to provide information from the state register for any company or for any entrepreneur registered within the region that this registering authority serves.

    It is unique main state registration number of a legal entity or an individual entrepreneur in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (Unified State Register of Legal Entities). OGRN and OGRNIP tax authorities began to assign to everyone since June 2002 on the basis of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation "On the Unified State Register of Legal Entities" No. 438 of June 19, 2002.

    How does the first digit of ogrn stand for?

    • C (1st character) takes on the values ​​1 or 5. These numbers indicate that in front of you is OGRN, and not OGRNP or GRN. ГРН is assigned to each entry made in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities;
    • Г Г (2nd and 3rd digits) - the last digits of the year of the entry. For example, if the entry was made in 2009, then it will be the numbers "09";
    • K K (4th and 5th characters) denotes the region code;
    • X X X X X X X (from the 6th to the 12th digits) - the number of the entry entered into the Unified State Register of Legal Entities during the corresponding year;
    • H (13th character) - control number. It is determined by the least significant bit of the remainder of the division of the number СГГККХХХХХХХ (without H) by 11.

    The date of the OGRN assignment for most companies is the date of registration of a legal entity. You can find it out on an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. But if the company was registered before July 1, 2002, then its statement will separately indicate the registration date before 07/01/2002 and separately the date of the OGRN assignment. The fact is that on July 1, 2002, the Law “On State Registration of Legal Entities” came into force and changed the procedure for registering companies. And those organizations that began to operate earlier than this date had to provide certain information about themselves to the territorial bodies of the Federal Tax Service, where they were assigned the OGRN.

    19 Aug 2018 1045
  • Today, many different numeric identifiers are associated with each organization, in which all basic information is encrypted. One of them is the OGRN - main state registration number... It is in it that information such as the type of organization, the year and place of its creation, the code of the unit of the tax inspectorate attached to it, the number of the decision on the organization of the given enterprise are indicated.

    This code is very versatile. It can be useful to you if you need confirmation of the existence of this organization and the accuracy of the documentation received, obtaining information about the inclusion of the company or its owner in the "black list" of the Federal Tax Service, its location address, TIN number and the identity of the owner of this company.

    The OGRN is indicated in the following documentation: in the entries in the registration register for this legal entity, in the papers confirming the entry of this organization into the register, in all the documentation that relates to this enterprise (for example, in the details), in the information on the state registration of the company.

    How to decrypt?

    The number is unique for each company. He consists of 13 digits, assigned to legal entities in the (unified state register of legal entities), and consisting of 15 digits (in this case it has a name - for individual entrepreneurs) - individual entrepreneurs in EGRIP (unified state register of individual entrepreneurs).

    The state registration number can be presented in the form of a formula A-BB-VV-GG-DDDDD-E, where each number has its own meaning:

    • if in place A there is a number from 1 to 5, then this number belongs to the OGRN; if 3, then the owner of this organization is an individual entrepreneur; if 2, then this enterprise refers to government agencies;
    • BB values ​​give information about the year the company was founded (the last two digits are taken, that is, if the year is 1998, then the number will be 98);
    • the number standing in the place of BB tells us about the place of registration of this organization, it is the number of the subject of the Russian Federation, which was assigned in accordance with article 65 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation;
    • ГГ - the code of the interdistrict tax office to which the company is attached;
    • the next five values ​​indicate the number of the decision to create this organization, which was entered in the register of tax records;
    • the very last digit is just a verification code, you can get it by dividing the entire previous number (A-BB-VV-YY-DDDDD) by 11, using the least significant bit of the remainder.

    Speaking about OGRNIP, this number can be represented as A-BB-VV-YG-DDDDDDD-E:

    • the first figure indicates that the owner of this organization is an individual entrepreneur;
    • BB values ​​give information about the year of assignment to an individual SP status;
    • the number in the place of BB tells us about the place of registration, similar to the previous version;
    • ГГ - the code of the interdistrict tax office, which;
    • the next seven values ​​indicate the decision number;
    • the very last digit is also a verification code, it can be obtained by dividing the entire previous number (A-BB-VV-YY-DDDDDDD) by 13, using the least significant bit of the remainder.

    Getting a number

    Nowadays, each organization must have its own personal OGRN code, the certificate of assignment of which is issued by the interdistrict tax inspectorate at the place. To find out, you can order an extract from the statistical register from Rosstat or, in which the information you need will be indicated.

    As for the OGRNIP, its assignment to an individual is carried out when he passes state registration as an individual entrepreneur.

    The OGRN certificate, which a person receives after state registration, indicates the following data:

    • the main state registration number itself;
    • the date of the entry of the entry on the assignment of the code into the unified state register.

    Using the number, you can check the data of a company, for example, through this service:

    Duplicate certificate

    The certificate itself is issued during the direct creation of the organization, but there are situations when some documentation is lost along with the coveted number. For this, there is a special procedure with which this code can be restored.

    With a passport, the head of the organization or any other authorized person (subject to a power of attorney) applies to the tax service. There he needs to write a statement in which the following data should be indicated:

    • full name of the organization;
    • the date of making an entry on registration in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities;
    • all main company numbers (OGRN (GRN), INN, KPP);
    • the reason for the request for a duplicate.

    After that, you need to pay a state fee (it is one fifth of the amount paid during the state registration of a legal entity) and provide a receipt for payment.

    Verification of the authenticity of the number

    There are situations when you need to verify the authenticity of the code. There is an uncomplicated way for this:

    1. we discard the last digit of the number and divide the remaining number by 11 (we get the number A);
    2. remove the remainder from the resulting result and multiply the resulting integer by 11 (we have the number B);
    3. we find the difference between the number A and B, it must be equal to the control number.

    The same algorithm is applicable to OGRNP:

    1. we discard the last digit of the number and divide the remaining number by 13 (we get the number A);
    2. we remove the remainder from the resulting result and multiply the resulting integer by 13 (we have the number B);
    3. we find the difference between the number A and B, it must also be equal to the control number.

    The essence of registration of an organization is that as a result of it, an entry is made in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE) about the registered organization. All entries are made in order, i.e. have a unique numbering that is the same throughout Russia, i.e. each organization has its own state registration number of the record on the creation of a legal entity, which is called the OGRN.

    OGRN- the main state registration number on the creation of a legal entity.

    The Law of 08.08.2001 No. 129-FZ "On State Registration of Legal Entities" established that the state registration number of the record on the creation of a legal entity is the main state registration number (OGRN) and is used as the number of the registration file of this legal entity.

    The structure of the main state registration number of the organization

    The state registration number of the entry made to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities consists of 13 digits, arranged in the following sequence:

    • S G G K K X X X X X X X

      С (1st character) - sign of assignment of the state registration number of the record:

      • to the main state registration number (OGRN) * - 1, 5

        to another state registration number of the record - 2

        to the main state registration number of an individual entrepreneur (OGRNIP) - 3

      YY (from the 2nd to the 3rd character) - the last two digits of the year of entry into the state register

      КК (4th, 5th characters) - serial number of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation according to the list of constituent entities of the Russian Federation established by article 65 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation

      XXXXXXX (from the 6th to the 12th character) - the number of the entry made in the state register during the year

      H (13th digit) - check number: the remainder of dividing the previous 12-digit number by 11, if the remainder of the division is 10, then the check number is 0 (zero).

    (Appendix No. 1 to the Rules for maintaining the Unified State Register of Legal Entities).

    OGRN structure of an individual entrepreneur

    OGRNIP- the main state registration number of an individual entrepreneur... Consists of 15 digits, the last one is a control one. It differs from OGRN in that:

      seven, not five digits are allocated for the entry number in the register;

      the check digit is equal to the last digit of the remainder of division by 13, not 11, of the previous 14-digit number;

    ATTENTION!

    Knowing what an OGRN is allows you to avoid many problems in modern business... After all, as you know, any modern enterprise is always supplied with a variety of identifiers and numbers, and abbreviations such as OGRN and OGRNIP may at first cause confusion among business owners. Let's consider the basic concepts associated with these two identifiers.

    What is OGRN for?

    When there were not so many enterprises in Russia as now, and the accounting system did not require the same comprehensive control, there was simply no such amount of evidence. So, it was enough for the controlling organizations that joint stock companies and limited liability companies had an individual taxpayer number (TIN).

    However, after that, other forms of business organization appeared, and legal development in this area has led to the fact that the evidence of the TIN became insufficient. After all, the information contained in it testified only to which tax inspectorate the company was assigned to and under which number it was registered.

    That is why in 2001 a new federal law was introduced, which regulated the state registration of legal entities. This law introduced the concept of the main state registration number (OGRN) for all organizations. Unlike the TIN, this is not just a numerator, but also a set of data about the form of ownership, the date of creation, the region where the enterprise is located, and the tax office to which it is assigned.

    How to decrypt OGRN

    Unlike the INN, which is just a serial number, the PSRN, the decryption of which is done according to a certain method, stores the data in itself. As an example, consider any number at random. For example, this: 1-13-77-46-40873-3.

    As you can see, it consists of 13 digits in the format С-ГГ-КК-НН-ХХХХХ-Ч. Let's start decrypting:

    • The number 1 at the very beginning is a sign of assignment. If the number is 1, then this is a legal entity. If number 2 is state organization... If the number is 3, then we are talking about an individual entrepreneur (in this case, we are not facing an OGRN, but an OGRNIP, but more on that later).
    • The next two numbers (13) indicate that the company was established in 2013.
    • Two more digits (77) indicate that this legal entity is registered in Moscow. It is number 77 that is assigned to Moscow in accordance with the 65th article of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. Each subject of the federation has its own number, and the article contains a complete list.
    • All together, the numbers from 4th to 7th (7746) already indicate a specific IFTS in a specific region. In this case, we are talking about the 46th interdistrict inspection in Moscow.
    • The next five digits are the number of the decision, according to which this enterprise was established. New decisions are entered in the tax register throughout the year, and this number is also unique. In this case, he indicates that the company was created in accordance with the decision numbered 40873.
    • Finally, the OGRN check is done thanks to the last, 13th digit. All the first 12 digits make up a single number, and this number is divisible by 11. The remainder of the division is written at the 13th position in the OGRN. In this case it is 3. If the remainder is 10, then the last digit is zero.

    As it is easy to see from the description of the OGRN, there cannot be two such identical numbers. The year already determines that the numbers will be able to repeat at least in a hundred years (if the existing accounting procedure is maintained). At the same time, the combination of the region number and the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate with the decision number is unique, so there can be no repetition. By decrypting the OGRN, you can get quite enough information about the company - much more than is available through the TIN.

    What is OGRNIP for?

    In addition to understanding what the OGRN is for, it will not be superfluous to know what an OGRN is. Everything is quite simple here: if the OGRN is intended for organizations, then the OGRN is for individual entrepreneurs. This abbreviation stands for “the main state registration number of an individual entrepreneur”.

    It is assigned, in the same way, to each individual entrepreneur when registering with the tax authority. The length of the OGRNP is not 13, but 15 digits, and it has the format: С-ГГ-КК-ХХХХХХХХХ-Ч. Decryption rules are the same as for OGRN, with two differences:

    • The number of the decision in the register, according to which the specified tax office approved the establishment of a new individual entrepreneur, consists not of 5, but of 9 digits (from 6th to 14th). This is due to the fact that more decisions are made on individual entrepreneurs than on legal entities.
    • To check the correctness and reliable OGRNIP, it is necessary to divide the number composed by the first 14 digits by 13, and compare the remainder of the division with the last 15th digit of the number. If the results match, the number is correct.

    As you can see, both OGRN and OGRN are able to communicate a lot of information to those who know how to decipher them correctly.
