Accounting Outsourcing

Accounting Outsourcing in Russia

“Accounting Outsourcing in Russia”is a very successful and in-demand service in our product range. What does “Accounting Outsourcing in Russia” mean? How can your business in Russia benefit from this type of service?

The aim: We will take charge of your accounting function and any related tasks, enabling you to concentrate on your main business activities.

Russian accounting very much differentiates from accounting in Germany, Western Europe or the USA

1st example: The shapes of the documents used in Russian accounting are in most cases determined by law. Forms which have been designed and created by the company itself, only get valid after passing a intern assignment (“prikas”). The chart of accounts is not choseable as well, but gets determined from the financial office.

2nd example: the balance sheet, the profit and loss account as well as the declaration of the corporation taxes have to be handed in to the Russian tax authorities quarterly. Furthermore different documents have to be handed in to the Russian social security authority as well as to the Russian statistic office. All in all more than 15 reports have to be made every quarter.

Those are just a few examples of typical formalities and bureaucratic issues in Russian accounting. This is why in Russian accounting there is generally twice the amount of documents to deal with as for example in Western Europe or the US resulting in a much higher workload.

Why is it so important, to make sure your accounting in Russia is in good hands?

All enterprises registered in Russia, including representative offices of foreign entities, are required by law to maintain accounting records. Failures in the reports or delays of them can lead to serious consequences such as fines or penalties, tax inefficiencies or even the freezing of the bank account. If the chief accountant (“Glavni Buchgalter”) in charge is responsible for these mistakes in the reports or for the delays he or even the chief executive officer can be charged personally. The selection of a Russian accountant can be rather tough. The outsourcing of the accountancy can be the best choice.
