Deciphering the registration number of a legal entity. What is Ogrn and Ogrnip: a simple decoding of complex numbers

When a legal entity passes the registration stage, it receives all the necessary documents, and the procedure for assigning registration numbers also takes place. One of these important numbers is OGRN. This number helps to identify legal entities, moreover, each organization separately receives its own PSRN. Using this code, it is not difficult to see complete information about the company you are interested in, while little information about the company is available for the TIN, and only about the tax service that assigned this number.

But what is OGRN? OGRN is the main state registration number, which usually consists of thirteen digits, each of which has a specific meaning. Let's describe in more detail:

• This number is the main one, since it is used to search and display data of legal entities.
• This number is called the state number, since it is assigned by the state body of the Federal Tax Service under the legislation of Russia.
• It is registration, because it is issued together with a certificate of registration of a legal entity.
• With the help of the OGRN, it is easy to find out the legality of the functioning of the counterparty, as well as detailed information about the features of the work of a particular organization.

purpose

At a time when there were a small number of enterprises in the Russian Federation, their accounting was carried out differently. Since there was no such amount of evidence as in our days, comprehensive control was not envisaged. For example, state authorities and other organizations acted in such a way that they needed only the TIN of taxpayers who were legal entities.

Over time, in addition to joint-stock companies and LLCs, firms with a different form of business organization began to appear. This led to the fact that the registration certificate of the TIN was now not enough. Since the data from this certificate spoke only about which tax service the company belongs to and what registration number it has.

All this became a prerequisite for one of the new federal laws to come into force in 2001, which determined the state registration regulations for legal entities. This new law introduced the concept of what the OGRN is for all companies. If the TIN can be considered just a numerator, then the PSRN is a numerical code that contains information about the location of the company, the date of foundation, the form of ownership, the accountability of a certain tax, and other data.

OOO

It is known that the OGRN stores information. The OGRN scheme for legal entities is as follows: Х-ХХ-ХХ-ХХ-ХХХХХ-Х.

So, consider the signs of decoding this thirteen-digit number:

• As a sign of assignment, the first digit can be 1, 2, or 3. When the number 1 is used, then this is a legal entity, 2 is a state organization, 3 is an individual entrepreneur.
• Next are two numbers that indicate the year the company was founded.
• The next two digits indicate the place of registration. Each subject of the Russian Federation has a specific number.
• Then there are four numbers that show which specific IFTS this company belongs to in a particular region.
• The next five digits are the number of the decision on which the company was founded. Interestingly, despite the fact that data is added to the tax register throughout the year, this number is also unique.
• The thirteenth digit is a verification one, it is for it that the PSRN is checked. It is known that twelve digits are a single number that is divisible by eleven. The remainder resulting from the division will be in place of this thirteenth digit.

It is easy to see that the repetition of two identical numbers is impossible.

The numbers that indicate the year will repeat in a hundred years with the same accounting procedure. Also, repetitions cannot be in the numbers of the region and the IFTS.

IP

So, the OGRN is intended for organizations, and the OGRNIP is, of course, for individual entrepreneurs.

This number is assigned in approximately the same way as the OGRN. Each individual entrepreneur receives this number at the time of registration with the tax office. ORNIP consists of fifteen digits. As for the format, it looks like this: Х-ХХ-ХХ-ХХХХХХХХ-Х.

Decryption occurs in the same way as the decryption of the OGRN, but there are two differences:

• The decision number from the register, according to which a certain tax authority approves the establishment of an individual entrepreneur, consists of nine digits, not five. The reason for this is that much more decisions are made on individual entrepreneurs than on legal entities.
• Also, when checking the accuracy and reliability of the OGRNIP, you need to divide the number, the sum of which is the first fourteen digits of the number by thirteen, and then compare the remainder with the last, or check digit of the number, if everything matches, then the number is correct.

So, with the ability to decipher the OGRN and OGRNIP, you can get quite valuable information about the company or entrepreneur about which you need detailed information.

For non-residents

The OGRN is issued only to Russian companies, because it is obtained during registration with the Russian tax office. The registration number that was issued by the responsible authority to a non-resident in his country and will be valid.

Also for this category, the OGRN can be a certificate of accreditation of a branch of a foreign legal entity, or the number of a certificate of accreditation of a representative office is used. Only with all this, the branch needs to get a CRO, the role of which can be compared with the role of a TIN for residents of the Russian Federation. All data is submitted to the tax service, and then after five working days it is assigned to the KIO.

So, in other words, OGRN is not assigned to foreign companies. Instead, certificates of entry into the state are used. register of branches of foreign legal entities that have received accreditation in the Russian Federation.

Examples

So, let's see what this number looks like in more detail. For example, we will use the OGRN of the St. Petersburg LLC Nevis 1087847036496. We make sure that the number consists of thirteen digits.

• 1 - this figure acts as a sign of referring the record number to the OGRN.
• 08 - Recorded in 2008.
• 78 - the number of the subject, that is, St. Petersburg.
• 47 - number of the registration authority. This is the inter-district IFTS No. 15 for St. Petersburg.
• 03649 is the record number.
• 6 - check number.

The last number is determined using a formula. OGRN without a check digit is divided by 11, that is, 108784703649/11=9889518513.5455. We discard the remainder after the decimal point, and multiply the result by 11, that is, 9889518513*11=108784703643. Then, 12 OGRN characters must be subtracted from this number: 108784703649-108784703643=6. This is the control number.

Differences between OGRN and GRN

The difference lies in the following three significant points:

• The moment when the number is issued.
• The numerical composition of the number.
• Constancy.

GRN - this is the name of the state registration number of the entry with changes and additions that are made to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. This means that every time when information about a company is changed from the register, it is assigned a certificate of their entry, and a state registration number is issued. Whereas the OGRN is appointed once and operates from the foundation to the liquidation of the organization. Moreover, the differences are contained in the registration number itself.

There are no numbers in the SRN that indicate the tax authority that issued the certificate.

Who issues the OGRN

After registration, a legal entity receives this number. The tax inspectorate is engaged in the assignment of PSRN.

According to the legislation of the Russian Federation, in order to appoint a PSRN, a future organization must do the following:

• Provide a package of documents and write an application in a certain form.
• Deliver documents to the tax office.
• Obtain a certificate of registration or receive a refusal with an explanation of the reason, which can be appealed in court.

So, the OGRN is displayed in the very certificate of registration of the legal entity.

Price

The price of assigning the OGRN is the amount of the fee, the collection of which occurs once when the documentation is provided.

Tax legislation defines this amount as 4000 rubles.

If it is necessary to issue a second PSRN, a fee of 800 rubles is usually charged, without the use of lawyers.

Search and verification of enterprises

With the help of the OGRN, anyone can get information about a particular organization on the website of the Federal Tax Service. With this service, it is easy to get detailed information about the company. For example, these:

• Information about state registration.
• Legal address.
• Information about management and founders.
• Changes from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

OGRN helps to obtain genuine information, as well as to avoid cooperation with unreliable companies.

OGRN of the branch

Since branches act as separate subdivisions and are located outside the location of the legal entity, they cannot be separate legal entities. Branches are endowed with certain property from the company itself, whose leaders appoint the management of the branch by proxy. The charter of the organization must reflect the presence of branches and a documentary base that confirms the legality of their functioning. Branches do not need state registration, because they do not play the main role, as a legal entity does.

So, knowledge about the purpose of the OGRN, about the nuances that are associated with obtaining this number by legal entities and individual entrepreneurs, about how and what information can be obtained about an organization by this number, are quite useful skills in modern business life. The OGRN also helps to avoid difficulties in cooperation with a company, since it helps to determine the legality of its operation, its reliability.

PSRN is individual for each legal entity registered with the tax office for the purpose of conducting business activities.

In fact, this number confirms the legality of the organization and allows you to confirm the fact of its existence. In bank details, it is used when making payments, when it is necessary to provide the bank with information about the sender and recipient of money in full.

OGRN, or the main state registration number, appears with an economic entity when creating an enterprise.

All Russian companies, according to their location, are included in a single register, where this code is assigned. OGRN is a combination of 13 characters, each of which has its own decoding:

- 1st character - indicates the definition of the entry to the main or other registration number;

- 2nd and 3rd - the last two digits of the calendar year in which this entry was included in the state register;

- 4th and 5th - the serial number of the entrepreneur in the list of economic entities of the Russian Federation;


- 6th and 7th - the code of the branch of the tax office where the company was registered;

- from the 8th to the 12th - the number of the entry included in the unified register throughout the year;

- 13th character - control settlement code.

GRN, or state registration number, acts as a certificate of transformations or additions in a single register. It also includes 13 characters, but differs from the OGRN in its meaning.

The main number is assigned to the organization only once during registration and is retained throughout its business activities. GRN is the code of each addition or change to the USRIP or USRLE, so there can be many such numbers.

Another difference lies in the structure of the 13-digit code, namely in the 6th and 7th characters. In the OGRN, these numbers indicate the number of the branch of the tax service that carried out the registration. In the SRN, this place is filled with the numbers of the serial number of the entry.

If the OGRN is assigned to legal entities, then the OGRN is the property of an individual entrepreneur.


The number is a guarantee that a person carries out economic activities legally, and is assigned by the tax service when registering an individual as an individual entrepreneur.

OGRNIP - a combination of 15 digits, which is deciphered similarly to OGRN, only the number of the entry that entered the register during the year is indicated from the 6th to the 14th character.

OGRNIP and OGRN are among the most important details of an economic entity, and the certificate issued upon receipt of this number is one of the main constituent documents of the organization.

The code confirms the registration of the entrepreneur with the tax authorities and acts as a guarantor of the legal obligations that a particular company bears. Its absence automatically indicates that the organization is engaged in fraudulent activities, that is, it is a kind of signal that allows other enterprises to avoid fraudulent transactions in a timely manner.

Getting information about the state number is quite easy. The fastest way is through the official portal of the Federal Tax Service. To do this, you need to have at least partial information about the organization - the legal address or the region where it operates.

In accordance with the information provided, the system generates a list with matching indicators, in which you can find the right company. A formal request to the tax office with a request to provide will become longer in time. The procedure usually takes 7 days and requires the provision of identification documents.

Sometimes there are situations when there is no Internet at hand, and you need to get a number in a short time. Or it happens that the organization has just gone through the tax registration procedure, and information about it has not yet appeared on the service portals.


In this case, it is advisable to personally contact the tax office and ask for an extract. It is likely that there will also be a need to wait, although usually inspectors are sympathetic to such requests and do not delay the paperwork.

Today, each enterprise and organization is assigned a variety of various numerical identifiers, which can be used to obtain basic information about their activities. The OGRN of an individual is considered one of such identifiers for individual entrepreneurs.

By this number, you can determine the type of commercial activity, the mountains of creation of the unit, as well as the place of registration, information about the tax inspection department, to which the entrepreneur or organization is assigned.

This is a multifunctional code that can help an entrepreneur if it is necessary to confirm the real fact of the existence of an organization founded by him, the eligibility of the documentation used.

Also, this number may indicate the placement of an individual entrepreneur or commercial organization on the black list of the tax service, his identity, number.

The indication of the OGRN of an individual is carried out in the following documents:

• Data in the registry regarding a specific legal entity or.
• In documents evidencing the entry of the organization in question into the state register. In all documents related to this enterprise, various details, certificates containing information on the state registration of the enterprise.

The method of decoding the OGRN of an individual is considered as an example in this article below.

How to get a number?

Today, the OGRN code is assigned to each organization and individual entrepreneur. Many novice businessmen are interested in the question: how to get the OGRN code? A document evidencing the assignment of such a number is issued at the tax office at the place where the enterprise is registered with the state.

To obtain information about the assigned code, you need to request an extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities or the statistical register from the ROSSTAT organization, which contains all the necessary information.

The OGRN of an individual can be assigned to a citizen when he becomes registered with the tax authorities as an individual entrepreneur. The document, which is assigned to an individual, indicates the following information:

1. State number received during production.
2. Date of inclusion of information on receipt of the code in the approved state register.
3. Using this number, the information of any organization or individual entrepreneur can be verified.

Organization registration

OGRN of an individual is most often required when registering an individual entrepreneur

The simplest and most common way to register your organization is to use the available online services, with which you can draw up all the documentation absolutely free of charge:

1. For registration of IP.
2. For decoration.

To facilitate and automate regular financial reporting, you can also use special online services that can perform the functions of an accountant enrolled in the company's staff.

This saves businessmen payment means and time resources. All necessary reporting is created only in automatic mode. The signature can be put with the help of modern gadgets. All operations are performed in a few clicks without waiting in long queues.

Number decoding

If we consider the OGRN of an individual, the number can be decrypted in the following format A-BB-BB-YY-DDDDDD-E:

1. The first character indicates that the number has been assigned to an individual entrepreneur;
2. BB symbols indicate the year of registration of an individual as an individual entrepreneur;
3. BB indicates a specific ;
4. YY - the number of the tax service department in which the ID is registered;
5. The next seven characters mean the OGRN number itself;
6. The last digit is a verification code, which is calculated by dividing the entire previous specified number by 13.

Often there are situations when you need to verify the authenticity of the number.

Why do I need to check the OGRN?

OGRN of an individual - to verify the authenticity of documents

Verification of information by PSRN number is carried out for the following purposes:

• To confirm the real existence of the entrepreneur;
• Verification of the authenticity of documents and certificates provided by the counterparty;
• The authenticity of the personal data of the owner of the legal entity;
• Determination of the fact that an entrepreneur has been blacklisted by the tax service, which often include one-day enterprises;
• an individual;
• Determination of the legal address of the registered organization.

Rarely do situations arise when real trusting relationships are created between business partners. To protect yourself, it is advisable to make sure that your counterparty is honest, than to deal with the consequences of incorrectly made decisions in the future, if this person is actually engaged.

Anyone can determine the authenticity of the existence of an OGRN organization using available Internet resources or by visiting a tax office. On specially designed sites, you can get a detailed transcript after entering the number.

In most cases, such checks cost money. However, free services can also be found if you try. Among the existing Internet resources, experts recommend referring only to trusted sources of information.

OGRN of an individual

The official portal of the Federal Tax Service indicates verified information on all registered firms and individual entrepreneurs. To complete the check, you need to go to the official website of the tax authority, determine the legal entity or individual entrepreneur, indicate the name of the organization, as well as the PSRN code, enter the verification code that appears on the image.

After that, the necessary information about the organization of interest will appear on the portal. During the check, the system issues the following data:

1. Full and abbreviated registered name of the organization;
2. Full legal address indicating the settlement, street, building and postal code;
3. Registered PSRN, TIN, and KPP codes;
4. Date of registration of the number;
5. Information about the registered trustee;
6. Information about the activities of the organization;
7. Information about the registration of the enterprise in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

By introducing the OGRN into the verification system on the website of the tax service, each entrepreneur can obtain comprehensive information about the counterparty with whom he will cooperate in the near future. Thus, he can decide for himself whether it is worth doing it or not.

The legal existence of an enterprise cannot be confirmed without a number in the compiled state list of legal entities or individual entrepreneurs. Upon receipt of confirmation, there is no doubt about the eligibility of the settlement documentation or other certificates provided by the counterparty.

A video consultation will help to check the OGRN of an individual:

It is in it that such information is indicated as the type of organization, the year and place of its creation, the code of the division of the tax inspectorate tied to it, the number of the decision on the organization of this enterprise. This code is very versatile. It can be useful to you if you need to confirm the existence of this organization and the reliability of the documentation received, obtain 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 register for this legal entity, in papers confirming the entry of this organization into the register, in all documentation that relates to this enterprise (for example, in details), in information about the state registration of the company.

How to decrypt? The number is unique for each enterprise.

What is TIN, OGRN, KPP?

OGRN and OGRNIP tax authorities began to assign to everyone from 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. The register is open, that is, any person has the right to apply to the registering authority with a request for provision information from the state register for any company or for any entrepreneur registered within the region served by this registration authority.

OGRN consists of 13 digits, OGRN - of 15. They contain the following information: 1 digit - a sign of referring the state registration number of the entry (to the main state registration number (OGRN) - 1, 5; to another state registration number of the entry (making changes) - 2; to the main state registration number of an individual entrepreneur (OGRNIP) - 3) 4, 5 digit - serial number of the subject of the Russian Federation according to the list of subjects of the Russian Federation established by Article 65 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation 6 and 7 digit - code number of the interdistrict tax inspectorate that issued OGRN for a legal entity or OGRNIP for an individual entrepreneur from 8 to 12 (OGRN) digit and from 8 to 14 (OGRNIP) digit - the number of the entry made in the state register during the year 13 digit (OGRN) - control number: the remainder of dividing the previous 12- a significant number by 11, if the remainder of the division is 10, then the control number is 0 (zero) 1117746358608 consider all the information that we can get from this digital combination: 1 digit - 1.

Responsible for assigning the record to the main state registration number. 2nd and 3rd digit - 11. This is 2011 - the time when the entry was made in the state register. 4th and 5th digit - 77.

What is a registration number?

So what does this term mean?

Registration number (or registration code) is a strictly defined sequence of characters (most often letters and/or numbers) assigned to a particular object to identify it. In a number of homogeneous objects, it serves as an analogue of the name and can contain information not only about the serial number of the object among the set of the same, but also about certain characteristics.

What is OGRN and OGRNIP and how to decipher them?

Later, new forms of ownership appeared (IP, GK, OO, etc.).

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 the 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 extracted from the TIN, no matter how hard we try.

Therefore, after some time, or rather, after the entry into force of the Federal Law No.

OGRN decryption

That is why checking the OGRN can easily identify a fraudster and confirm the existence of a particular company. There are three ways to find out the correctness of the number: 1.

Having filed an official request to the tax authorities, find out all the necessary information after paying the state fee. 2. Through the official website of the Federal Tax Service, where you can access information about legal entities entered in the Unified State Register. 3.

Registration number in the FIU and the FSS, how to find out

I didn’t dare to go there either - huge queues killed all desire.

Any organization must, before starting its activities, without fail. It is at this point that the company is assigned. Data about it is entered in, and organizations are issued supporting documents on its assignment, but before receiving the OGRN, it is necessary to register with the provision of a certain package of documents.

Required documents and information

Before assigning the OGRN and receiving a confirmation form, you must go through. It begins with the collection of a package of documents. The list is rather short:

• (Form N P11001)
• Original and copy of the applicant's passport
• Original form of receipt for payment of state duty.

The application must indicate data about, her, information about the founders and. This information is also found in the articles of association and cannot differ from what is provided in the application.

About where and how to get a certificate of PSRN for individual entrepreneurs and legal entities, including urgently, read below.

Responsible authorities

The number itself is assigned during the registration of the company, but in confirmation of this it is necessary to obtain a special form. It indicates the main state registration number itself and the date of its assignment. Also, in parallel, a document is issued confirming the entry of data about the company into the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.

The issuance of all registration documents is carried out by the tax office at the location of the company. In simple words, the OGRN is received where the documents for registration were submitted. If intermediaries were involved in registration, then either a power of attorney is required to issue these forms, or they will tell you which branch of the IFTS you need to drive to receive them.

We will tell you below how you can get the OGRN of a legal entity (pr.) and.

Issuance conditions

It is important to know that throughout the entire operation of the organization, its state number is unchanged. For legal entities, it consists of 13 numbers and does not change when changing activities. Data about it are indicated in the financial statements, in contracts and documents for all state funds.

The conditions for the initial issuance of PSRN are simple - the number will be issued upon registration. At the same time, there is no possibility to get some special number. , in the OGRN, data on the tax itself, the year of registration and other information are encrypted. Previously, during registration, the company was obliged to confirm the presence of the authorized capital by the time of filing documents, now this can be done within 4 subsequent months.

Sometimes it is required to re-issue the form with the main registration number. After applying to the tax office and paying the state duty, a document will be issued indicating the same number as before.

How to get PSRN

Conventionally, the procedure for assigning a registration number is simple. It is required to go through only 3 stages - collection of documents, their submission and receipt of forms confirming the fact of registration. Depending on the type of company, it is sometimes necessary to comply with additional conditions, but a simple registration of a legal entity does not require this.

• The most important step is the preparation of documents. Of particular difficulty are the charter and the statement. The application form can be downloaded on the official website of the Federal Tax Service, and the charter can be ordered from a law firm. It can also be redone from a similar document of another company with a similar form of activity. In this case, do not forget about the correct entry of codes.
• After collecting all the documents, they must be re-checked for correctness of filling. Further, the entire package is submitted to the tax office at the location of the future organization. If all the data is provided correctly, then the process of obtaining PSRN will take only 5 days. After this time, it will be possible to receive official documents with the registration number indicated in them.

It is worth knowing that potential partners are now circulated. In the absence of them in the tax register, the illegality of their activities becomes clear. With the introduction of the concept of assigning state numbers to all Russian organizations, all companies received them. Previously registered legal entities were required to re-register in order to receive the OGRN.

We also separately talked about how to get a duplicate of the OGRN certificate of a legal entity or individual entrepreneur and an extract from it, as well as free online via the Internet.
