Other payment methods are not the most popular, such as:

- through the federal payment system "City". It has been operating in the financial market for 19 years, accepting card payments online and in special terminals. You need to register on the site and fill out a significant number of forms, which makes the process difficult. Also, terminals are not located in every city;

How to pay transport tax through a Sberbank terminal (ATM)
For those who are not entirely comfortable with modern technology and its innovations, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the instructions for paying transport tax through an ATM and Sberbank terminal.
The ATM and the terminal differ slightly in functionality, but the payment process is identical. Let's consider payment through the terminal:
- First, you need to decide how you want to make the payment: using cash or a card. If you pay with a card, insert it into the appropriate hole and enter the PIN code.
- Next, click on the “Payments” tab.
- Going to the next page, you must select “Taxes”.
- Using the institution number, we select the required tax office, after which all the details necessary for making the payment will be entered automatically.
- You will be required to enter payer information, payment type and amount to pay.
- Next, click “Pay”.
Important!
If you paid with a card, the money will be debited automatically; if in cash, the terminal will ask you to deposit money one bill at a time. It is very important not to deposit all the money at once, otherwise he will not accept it. As soon as the bills are accepted, two checks will appear, one large, one smaller. Keep a large receipt, it will serve as proof that you paid the tax if for some reason the payment does not arrive.
Now let’s consider payment through a Sberbank ATM:
As in the previous case, we select the payment method: cash or card.
If you choose a cash payment method, proceed directly to the third step.
Next, select the “Payments in our region” button, which is usually located in the right column.
A window appears in front of you in which you need to select “Search for payee”.
Now several options for searching for the required recipient appear on the screen: by TIN or by barcode. The second is the most convenient and simple, but unfortunately, the barcode is not yet stamped everywhere, and not all ATMs have a special camera that reads it. I don’t recommend searching by name, because before you find the item you need, you’ll have to look through a considerable list. Therefore, it is better to select the “Search by TIN” option.
We enter the recipient's TIN in the appropriate window, which is indicated on the receipt.
If you did everything correctly, then you will see several payment options for the desired recipient. In our case, you need to select the last option “By receipt of the Federal Tax Service”. Next, the ATM will ask you to present the receipt to a special scanner.
There may be several barcodes on a receipt, but the correct one is on the far left of the receipt. The ATM does not count the rest.
As soon as the scanner loads the information, the details will appear on the screen. Check them carefully, and if everything is correct, then click on “Continue”.
Next, enter the required amount into the bill acceptor. If it exceeds the payment amount, the ATM will offer to deposit it into your mobile phone account. Don't forget to pick up your receipt and check.
The main advantage of paying transport tax via an ATM or the Internet is the time savings and the absence of commission. Of course, you can make a payment through the cash register with the help of a cashier-operator, but there are long lines, a commission, and possibly an additional payment for filling out the PD-4 form.
Is transport tax paid at the place of registration of the car or the owner?
Funds received from transport tax payers go to the local budget. According to the Tax Code, taxes should be paid at the location of the property. For cars and other land vehicles, the location is considered to be the residence address of the car owner.
Payment of tax and advance payments of tax is made by taxpayers to the budget at the location of the vehicles.
Part 1 Art. 363 Tax Code of the Russian Federation
The location of property for the purposes of this article is recognized as: ... for vehicles not specified in subparagraphs 1 and 1.1 of this paragraph - the location of the organization (its separate division) or the place of residence (place of stay) of an individual, for which, in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation The vehicle is registered with the Federation.
clause 5 art. 83 Tax Code of the Russian Federation
This means that, regardless of where the car is registered, you pay tax to the budget of the region in which you live. For example, if the car was registered with the Moscow State Traffic Safety Inspectorate, and you live in St. Petersburg, the payment of the car tax should be sent to the Federal Tax Service of St. Petersburg.
As for taxpayer organizations, for them advance payments for transport tax in 2021 are made at the location of the organization or its division. Learn more about the specifics of paying legal auto tax. read here
History of transport tax in Russia
The history of transport tax in Russia dates back to the 20s of the 20th century. Almost 100 years ago, vehicles were horses, horse-drawn carriages, bicycles, etc. However, in the resolution of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee “On the volost budget” of 1924, there is already a clause “Tax on vehicles” in the section “Income sources”. Since then, the transport tax has undergone many changes, and the list of objects of taxation has become wider.
By 1981, technological advances had led to the exclusion of cyclists, horse owners and other riding animals from the tax bracket. Starting this year, the amount of transport tax began to be affected only by the power of the car. In 1991, for the first time, transport tax rates were differentiated depending on their capacity.
After another 10 years, the Federal Road Fund of the Russian Federation was abolished. The new federal law on tax rates brought them closer to the values that look familiar today. This meant one thing - a sharp increase in tax rates, while regional authorities could increase or decrease them. Previously, before this reform, all contributions from drivers went to special road funds. And then all the fees were spent on maintaining the roads in good condition. Now the entire transport tax goes to the regional budget and is distributed by it for various needs at its own discretion.
In 2013, the Federal Law “On Amendments to Article 362 of Part Two of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation” was adopted. He supplemented the rules for calculating transport tax by introducing increasing coefficients for expensive cars. Since then, there have been no significant changes. We have described only briefly how long the transport tax has existed in Russia and how many changes the procedure for its calculation has undergone. At the same time, many car enthusiasts sincerely do not understand what and why they pay. After all, even if the car has been sitting in the garage for years, but it has more power, you have to pay more tax than if the roads are intensively used by less powerful cars. In addition, as we wrote above, the very purpose of collecting transport tax has become very vague. Over the past few years, rumors have regularly appeared and all sorts of discussions have arisen about the “cancellation” of the transport tax, or rather replacing it with either an environmental tax, or its inclusion in the price of gasoline, etc. However, the Russian government opposed these initiatives, since this would lead to a loss of budget revenues of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation. And when something will change is unknown.
Is it possible to pay transport tax in installments?
It is not prohibited to pay transport tax in installments. You can completely break the amount into as many parts as you wish. For those who are planning to pay car tax in installments, we have some advice:
1Keep every payment receipt.
When paying taxes in installments, there is a high probability that one of the payments will be lost. If at least one contribution does not reach the tax office, you will be considered a debtor. Payment receipts are proof that you have fulfilled your debt obligations to the tax authorities on time and in full.
2Make your final payment by December 1st.
The deadline for paying car tax is December 1. By this day you must pay the entire amount. If you do not have time to pay the tax, you will also have to pay penalties, which are accrued for each day of delay.
Penalties stop arriving only after the tax office has received information about full payment of the car tax, and this may take several days. Therefore, if payment is late, first pay the tax in full, and only after a few days pay off the outstanding penalties.
Can I pay in installments?
“Is it possible to pay transport tax in installments? Wouldn't this be a violation of the law? What if I can’t afford a one-time payment?” Such questions are most often of interest to car owners.
The law does not prohibit paying transport tax in installments, even 1 kopeck per day. However, in this case it is important to note two points:
- if you make payments in installments before the reporting deadline (December 1), this will be the best option;
- If you make payments in installments after the reporting deadline (December 1), then you will already be paying the debt, and penalties will be charged for each day of delay.
Is it possible to sell a car if the transport tax has not been paid?
You can sell a car with a transport tax debt in any case - debts do not affect the ability to draw up a purchase and sale agreement. But the question of whether the new owner will be able to register such a car in his own name is not so clear-cut.
1When will it be impossible to re-register a car with transport tax debts?
The buyer will not be able to register a car if it has restrictions on registration actions. Bailiffs have the right to impose such a ban if the owner has evaded paying taxes for a long time and enforcement proceedings have been initiated against him.
You can see if a car has a registration restriction on the official website of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate. To do this, go to the “Car Check” service in the “Services” section on traffic police.rf and enter the car’s VIN code in a special form.
If there is such a restriction, you should first pay off your debts, wait until the enforcement proceedings are closed, and only then sell the car.
2When can you sell a car?
If you have a small debt to the tax office and no enforcement proceedings have been initiated, you can sell the car. However, you will still have to pay off the debt and also pay a new tax for the year in which you sold the car.
The tax amount in this case will be calculated taking into account the number of full months of car ownership (calculated from January to the month of registration of the car for the new owner). For example, if you sold a car and the new owner registered it in his name on March 20, 2021, in 2021 you will have to pay 3 months of car tax.
Remember that the tax for a sold car ceases to be calculated not from the date of drawing up the purchase and sale agreement, but from the date of registration of the car with the traffic police. Until the new owner registers the car in his name, you will pay for it.
Transport tax - reporting
From January 1, 2021, the tax return for transport tax was canceled . The last time organizations had to report for 2021.
Organizations must independently calculate transport tax, including advance payments for it, for 2020 and transfer it to the budget without filing a declaration.
The tax authorities will monitor the correctness of the calculation based on information received from the traffic police and other sources. The inspection will reflect the results of its calculations in a message in the approved form - Message on the amount of transport tax. According to general rules, the inspectorate will be able to send it no later than 6 months after the tax payment deadline. Other deadlines are established for recalculation or upon liquidation of an organization. The tax office will send notifications via TKS or to your personal account. If there is no other possibility, the notification of the calculated tax will be sent by mail or delivered personally to the head (representative) of the organization against signature. The message will contain information about the object of taxation, tax base, tax period, tax rate and the amount of calculated tax.
If an organization does not agree with the inspection’s calculation, it has the right, within 10 days after receiving the message, to submit to the Federal Tax Service Inspectorate explanations or documents confirming the correctness of its version. Having considered the objections, the inspection will send the organization a response in the recommended form - On the results of consideration of the message about the amount of transport or land tax. Depending on the outcome of the review, the tax authorities:
- or they will clarify their calculation and reduce the amount of tax if the organization proves that it is overestimated;
- or they will present the organization with a demand for repayment of the arrears if they do not accept the organization’s objections.
For what year is transport tax paid in 2021?
In 2021, car owners pay taxes for 2021. According to the Tax Code of individuals. persons are required to pay the car tax in full for the previous tax period, that is, for the previous year, before December 1.
The tax is payable by individual taxpayers no later than December 1 of the year following the expired tax period.
para. 3 p. 1 art. 363 Tax Code of the Russian Federation
The tax period is a calendar year.
clause 1 art. 360 Tax Code of the Russian Federation
This means, if you didn’t have a car in 2021, but bought it in 2021, you won’t have to pay car tax on it this year, and you should expect the first letter from the tax office only in a year.

Pay transport tax using the TIN of an individual

To pay your car tax on time using any other online resource, you should use the payment document number that you will find in the letter from the tax office.
If you did not have time to pay the Taxpayer Tax before December 1, you can do this using your Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) through a special form on our website, using the State Services portal, Sberbank-Online or one of the electronic wallets.
These and many other services make it possible to make payments without leaving your home. All you have to do is choose a convenient payment system and don’t think about TN again until next year.
