Who submits 2-NDFL “Certificate of income and tax amounts of an individual” to the tax office
This form is needed to provide information about the income of employees and the amounts of personal income tax withheld from them to the Federal Tax Service. Additionally, the employer must issue a certificate upon request of the employee. A 2-NDFL certificate is drawn up for each individual who received a salary, income or other payments from an organization or entrepreneur. It is rented out by organizations that pay income to individuals. The employer in this case is the tax agent - withholds and transfers personal income tax to the tax office.
There are exceptions to this rule:
- You paid the individual only income that is not subject to personal income tax. For example, they gave a gift worth up to 4,000 rubles and did not pay anything else;
- You paid income to individuals without being a tax agent. For example, they bought a car or a garage from citizens, or paid for the work of an individual entrepreneur, self-employed person, private notary, etc.
- You accrued income to an individual, but at the time of submitting the certificate you have not yet paid it. In this case, you will need to submit an updated 6-NDFL with an attachment for the period of income accrual.
There is no need to submit a zero certificate for 6-NDFL. For example, they are not represented by organizations that did not operate and did not pay remuneration to employees or paid only non-personal income tax amounts. This is due to the fact that only tax agents submit the certificate, and the above categories do not apply to them.
Income certificates and other documents are available in the Kontur.Accounting web service. The service itself will draw up a certificate based on employee data.

Deadlines and procedure for submitting a certificate to the tax office
In 2022, companies must submit a certificate of income and personal tax amounts to the tax office as part of 6-NDFL, but not every quarter, but once a year. That is, the certificate must be completed based on the results of 2022 and submitted to the tax office before March 1, 2022.
The 6-NDFL calculation along with the certificate must be sent to the department where the organization or individual entrepreneur is listed as a taxpayer. Those with more than 10 employees submit 6-NDFL calculations and certificates only electronically. Organizations and individual entrepreneurs with 10 employees or less can choose the form of delivery - paper or electronic.
Separate rules apply to organizations with several separate divisions:
- Legal entities whose parent organization is located in one municipality, and separate divisions in another, receive the right to choose one inspection in the municipality to which they will submit reports on all separate divisions.
- Legal entities whose head and separate divisions are located in the same municipality can report to the tax office at the place of registration of the head division.
To use this right, you need to inform about your choice before January 1st to all tax inspectorates with which the organization’s divisions are registered. The decision cannot be changed during the year. A new notification is provided to the tax office only if the number of segregations changes or other changes occur that affect the reporting procedure.
Why do you need an income certificate?
The function that a certificate of income of an individual performs is to inform authorized bodies and organizations (for example, banks) about the amount of citizens’ earnings and the amount of tax withheld from it.
Drawing up this document is one of the main tasks of any accountant who deals with payroll issues. Until 2022, this document was called 2-NDFL, and, in addition to handing it over to employees, tax agents annually prepared it and submitted it to the Federal Tax Service for all employees of the organization. Now the situation has changed. There is no longer a separate 2-personal income tax. For reporting purposes, it was included in the 6-NDFL calculation. By Order of the Federal Tax Service No. ED-7-11/ [email protected] dated October 15, 2020, a new form of certificate 2-NDFL was approved in 2022 for delivery to taxpayers. It is called “Certificate of income and tax amounts of an individual.” But the functionality of the document, its purpose and the requirements for its issuance have not changed.
IMPORTANT!
We look at the Order of the Federal Tax Service No. ED-7-11 / [email protected] dated September 28, 2021, what changes are in 2-NDFL in 2022 - from 01/01/2022, an updated form for calculating 6-NDFL and certificates of income and taxes of individuals is in effect. The calculation for the 4th quarter of 2022, together with reference applications, must be submitted using a new form.
ConsultantPlus experts analyzed the latest changes in the 2-NDFL form and compiled new samples. Use these instructions for free.
When is it necessary to issue a 2-NDFL certificate to an employee?
Often banks and other organizations use the 2-NDFL certificate to find out about a person’s income and solvency. It may be needed, for example:
- upon dismissal, to convey to the next employer information about the standard deductions provided;
- to receive a standard, property or social deduction from the Federal Tax Service at the end of the year;
- to confirm income from the bank when receiving a loan;
- when contacting embassies to obtain a visa;
- in other cases: to calculate a pension, when adopting a child or participating in various legal proceedings (especially regarding the resolution of labor disputes), when calculating the amount of alimony payments and other payments.
The tax agent is obliged to issue a certificate if an individual has submitted a corresponding application. Not only employed employees, but also former employees and other individuals who received payments from a tax agent can request a certificate. The form of such a certificate of income for 2022 is approved by Appendix No. 4 to Order of the Federal Tax Service of Russia dated October 15, 2020 N ED-7-11 / [email protected] But if an employee requests information for 2022 and earlier periods, the certificate must be issued according to that form that was in effect at that time. For 2022 and 2022, it was approved by Appendix No. 5 to the order of the Federal Tax Service of Russia dated October 2, 2018 No. ММВ-7-11/ [email protected]
Compared to the form that is submitted to the tax office and was previously issued to employees, the income certificate for employees for 2021 is slightly simplified. Information about the number, attribute of the certificate, and notifications for deductions is excluded from it. However, a section with information about the tax agent has been added.
If an employee, including a former employee, has applied for a certificate of income, it must be issued within 3 working days, in accordance with Article 62 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The certificate must be signed by the manager. If an employee resigns, then the certificate must be issued on the last day of his work. For other income recipients, the period for issuing a certificate upon application is up to 30 working days.
Who needs a 2-NDFL certificate and why, and where it may be required
There are several categories of individuals and legal entities who deal with certificates:
- tax agents;
- individual entrepreneurs (IP);
- working citizens;
- unemployed individuals.
Let's take a closer look at the features of handling Form 2 of personal income tax.
Tax agents
A legal entity or individual entrepreneur acts as a tax agent, which concludes employment contracts with employees, provides the staff with the opportunity to perform their job duties and pays them for their work. At the same time, the tax agent is obliged to withhold personal income tax from the income paid, transfer it to the budget of the Russian Federation, and report this to the tax authorities. Personal income tax certificate 2 serves as such a report.
The process of submitting a certificate to the tax office by a legal entity
Most often, reference data is generated in the accounting program “1C: Salaries and Personnel Management”. Finished documents are uploaded and sent to the tax office in electronic form (for example, using the free software of the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate “Taxpayer of Legal Entities”), or printed and submitted on paper. When submitted in printed form, a special list is attached to the certificates - a register, which indicates information about the employer, the number of certificates submitted, and information about employees. One copy of the register is submitted to the Federal Tax Service along with certificates, the second is returned to the organization.
From January 1, 2022, paper reporting is allowed only to those companies and individual entrepreneurs that pay income to employees of 10 or fewer people. All other enterprises (with more than 10 employees) are required to submit information using electronic document management.
Important addition! The possibility of submitting documents to the Federal Tax Service on electronic media (disks, flash drives, floppy disks) has been cancelled. There are only three reporting options available:
- personally visit the inspection;
- use mail;
- send certificates using the electronic document management system.
Let's continue the example: in March 2022, the trade and service accountant submitted reports for 2022 on Form 2 Personal Income Tax in paper version; this was allowed by the number of employees - 22 people. According to the new rules, since the company has more than 10 employees in 2022, the accountant is required to submit personal income tax certificates for 2022 through electronic communication channels.
What does a 2-NDFL certificate look like?
The 2-NDFL certificate has a machine-oriented form and is intended for employers who report on paper. The new form should speed up the data processing process, as it will automate the scanning, recognition and digitization of received certificates.
A certificate of income and tax amounts for an individual in 2022 consists of two parts:
- “Certificate of income and tax amounts of an individual” includes information about the tax agent and four sections:
- Section 1. “Data about the individual who is the recipient of the income.” Fill in your full name, tax identification number, taxpayer status, country code, passport details.
- Section 2. “Total amounts of income and tax based on the results of the tax period.” Enter the tax rate, the total amount of taxable income, highlight the tax base, indicate the calculated and withheld tax amount.
- Section 3. “Standard, social and property tax deductions.” Indicate the deduction code and amount, and additionally enter information about the notification.
- Section 4. “The amount of income from which tax has not been withheld by the tax agent, and the amount of tax not withheld.” Indicate the amount of income from which tax was not withheld and the amount that was not withheld.
2. Appendix to the certificate “Information on income and corresponding deductions by month of the tax period.” Indicate the certificate number, reporting year 2022, tax rate and fill in the data by month. Take income codes from Appendix 1 to the Federal Tax Service order dated September 10, 2015 No. ММВ-7-11/387, deduction codes from Appendix 2 to the same Federal Tax Service order. Please note that standard, social and property deductions are not included in the application, as they are shown in section 3 of the help.
If a company employee has income that is taxed at rates other than 13%, they are displayed in separate sections. The amount of tax on this income is also indicated separately.
2-NDFL - what is it?
Certificate 2-NDFL reflects the amount of income received by an individual for the past year, as well as the amount of income tax calculated from the entire amount of earnings, withheld and transferred to the tax authorities. Help may be needed in two cases:
- For its main purpose - for submission to the tax authorities;
- Upon application of an individual, the latter receives a certificate in hand and submits it to the authority of interest.
The document must be submitted to the tax authorities not only upon payment of personal income tax; tax agents also notify of the impossibility of withholding tax (no later than two months after the completion of the declaration campaign). Let’s take a closer look at why an individual might need a certificate.

New control ratios for 2-NDFL in 2022
Since 2-NDFL became an annex to 6-NDFL, the control ratios have changed significantly. Firstly, most of them have become internal documents, since previously they mainly compared the indicators of 2-NDFL and 6-NDFL. New ratios are given in letter dated March 23, 2021 No. BS-4-11/ [email protected]
If the control ratios are violated, the employer will receive a notification from the tax authorities about the identified inconsistencies with a requirement to provide explanations or make corrections within 5 days.
Changes to 2-NDFL in 2022
A deduction for expenses on physical education and health services has been approved.
Citizens and their children under the age of 18 can receive a new social deduction if the service is included in a special list. At the same time, the individual entrepreneur or organization that provided it must also be included in the list approved by the Ministry of Sports (Article 1 of Federal Law No. 88-FZ dated 04/05/2021).
The procedure for assessing personal income tax for payment (compensation) for vouchers has been revised . From January 1, 2022, personal income tax will not be withheld if an employee is compensated for the cost of a voucher for a child who has not reached 18 years of age or 24 years of age for full-time study. The condition that the voucher must be taken into account when calculating income tax is also canceled so that compensation for it can be exempted from personal income tax (Article 1 of Federal Law No. 8-FZ of February 17, 2021).
Merger of 6-NDFL and 2-NDFL. It is valid from reporting for 2022 (clause “a”, clause 19, article 2 of Law No. 325-FZ dated September 29, 2019). Instead of form 2-NDFL, tax agents will attach to the calculation of 6-NDFL a certificate of income and tax amounts of an individual. The new application will not contain information about the tax agent and the reporting year. Section 3 will be supplemented with several fields for information about notifications from the inspectorate, and instead of the field “Amount of tax not withheld by the tax agent,” a whole new section 4 will appear.
Progressive personal income tax rate . From January 1, 2022, a progressive tax rate was introduced. If the taxpayer’s income for the year did not exceed 5 million rubles, then it is taxed at the old rate of 13%, if it exceeded it, then 650,000 rubles + 15% of the excess amount. In 2022 and 2022, employers will look at each tax base, such as wages and dividends separately. If the limit for each tax base is met, the 15% rate will not be applied to it.
New procedure for calculating personal income tax on interest on deposits . From January 1, interest on deposits is subject to personal income tax of 13% if they exceed the non-taxable minimum (1,000,000 rubles × the Central Bank rate as of January 1 of the corresponding year). The tax base is the excess of the amount of income over the non-taxable amount.
Fines for violations when submitting Certificates of income and tax amounts
Failure to submit certificates as part of 6-NDFL is the basis for prosecution under Art. 126 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation for failure to provide information necessary for tax control. The fine for each certificate not submitted on time will be 200 rubles per organization or individual entrepreneur. An additional administrative fine in the amount of 300 to 500 rubles can be imposed on the head of the organization, the chief accountant or other official (Article 15.6 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).
If errors are found in the certificates (for example, an incorrect TIN, amount of income, code, etc.), then the organization or individual entrepreneur will be held liable for taxation and will be fined 500 rubles for each incorrect certificate. A fine can be avoided if you submit an updated certificate before the tax office finds the error.

Responsibility for failure to submit 2-NDFL
Regardless of how and by whom the 6-NDFL report was filled out, and for earlier periods the 2-NDFL certificate (online or using software), as well as how the enterprise is obliged to submit reports (on paper or electronically) , responsibility for its failure to submit or untimely submission rests (in accordance with Article 126 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation) with the tax agent. Since 2016, the list of sanctions has been supplemented by Art. 126.1 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, which provides for liability for the unreliability of information submitted by a tax agent to the Federal Tax Service.
