How to fill out a zero declaration

You need to fill out a zero declaration without corrections and errors in the text, and when filling out a document on a computer, there are certain rules that you must adhere to very strictly. Any blots invalidate the declaration. This instruction will discuss in detail the completion of all pages of the declaration, as well as the rules by which it is written.

What rules apply when filling out a zero declaration

When downloading a file with an empty declaration, you should consider the following instructions:

  • The font used when completing the null declaration is Courier New with a height of 16 or 18.
  • All amounts are rounded so that there are no kopecks left in them. For example, if you have an amount of 501 rubles 59 kopecks, then it will be rounded up, that is, up to 502 rubles. If there were up to fifty kopecks, then the sum would remain equal to 501.
