Take statistics through Externship. The types of statistical reporting are different for each organization. What to hand over to your company depends on several factors: type of activity, form of ownership, annual turnover, etc.
By sending reports via Extern, you can always be sure of its relevance. After all, all forms required by law are updated automatically. The update process does not affect operation and occurs in a timely manner. The form auto-fill function in the system will help you create a report without errors and report the first time.
What is Rosstat
Organizations are required to submit:
- tax reporting,
- financial statements;
- statistical reporting.
The Federal State Statistics Service (Rosstat) is a body that produces official statistical information on the social, economic, demographic and environmental situation of the country.
Since April 3, 2021, Rosstat has been under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation. It is a very impressive service to match the tasks performed, approximately 18 departments, each of which has from 3 to 8 departments and services in the regions, for example the following divisions:
- Department of Price and Finance Statistics (Department of Statistics of Public Finance and Monetary System, Department of Statistics of Organizational Finance, Department of Consumer Price Statistics, Department of Producer Price Statistics);
- Department of Enterprise Statistics (Department of Continuous Surveys of Small and Medium Enterprises, Department of Structural Statistics and Macroeconomic Calculations, Department of Current Small Business Statistics, Department of Production Indexes, Department of Energy Statistics, Summary Information Department, Department of Statistics of Production of Intermediate and Investment Goods, Department of Statistics of Production of Consumer Goods goods).
The statistics service is designed to collect and analyze information. We are talking about the formation of an information base on the basis of which informed management decisions can be made. It is approximately comparable to the information base of an enterprise, but on a national scale. This information is needed by authorities to improve tax, customs, and investment policies. According to statistics, you can understand how high the tax burden is on enterprises, what state this or that industry is in, how the state is developing, how the situation in certain areas of life is improving or worsening.
The activities of Rosstat are regulated by the Federal Law “On official statistical accounting and the system of state statistics in the Russian Federation” dated November 29, 2007 No. 282-FZ.
The work of Rosstat is planned by the federal plan of statistical work. The plan is regularly adjusted, the document is living.
The rules are configured by the plan:
- the names of official statistical information have been established;
- grouping of information is determined;
- the frequency of work completion and deadlines for provision to users are given;
- general economic indicators of the activities of organizations and monitoring of the most important problems of the socio-economic sphere, from the number of organizations according to state registration data to information for monitoring processes in the real sector of the economy, financial, banking and social spheres of subjects.
The plan determined the directions of Rosstat’s activities:
- population census;
- socio-demographic surveys;
- continuous statistical observations of the activities of enterprises;
- accounting for GDP, GNP and GRP;
- the presence, movement and composition of fixed assets and other non-financial assets of large and medium-sized commercial organizations;
- availability, movement and composition of contracts, leases, licenses, marketing assets and goodwill.
Advantages
Statistical reporting allows businessmen to make the right choice of counterparties with a high level of profitability.
Using information from the Rosstat portal, an enterprise can obtain information on the average salary separately by industry, on tax burdens, and on the amount of maximum revenue.
In addition, it takes into account the activities of entrepreneurs, while generating statistical codes.
They are designed to control the activities of companies by the Federal Tax Service. The presence of codes is necessary to open a bank account, to participate in tenders, and when conducting an audit.

Types and forms of statistical reporting
To implement the plan for monitoring enterprises, Rosstat carries out two types of monitoring of the activities of organizations:
A. Continuous surveillance for small and medium-sized businesses is carried out every five years. The last time it was held was in 2015, the next one will be in 2021;
B. Sample observation is carried out periodically and continuously. The composition of the reporting may change from year to year. The most common forms submitted by small and micro enterprises and individual entrepreneurs are 1-IP, MP (micro) - in kind, PM, TZV-MP, etc. The basis for their confirmation is logically the financial statements, the data from which will come from the Federal Tax Service.
Examples of reporting to Rosstat
On the Rosstat website you can see a list of all forms of statistical observation, but it is quite difficult to parse it in relation to yourself. We do not provide a complete list of forms here; it changes regularly. There are quite a few forms of statistical reporting. We ourselves use two useful sources:
- Directory of statistical forms;
- Calendar stat. reporting.
As an example, here are the most mentioned statistical forms

Who should report to Rosstat and how?
Statistical reports must be submitted (Article 5 No. 209-FZ):
- bodies of state power and local self-government;
- legal entities of the Russian Federation;
- individual entrepreneurs;
- branches and representative offices of Russian organizations.
Further we are talking only about 2-4 categories of accountable persons. So, the law distinguishes small, medium and large businesses, which are required to submit statistical reports. Who is a small business? The law defines the categories for classifying companies and individual entrepreneurs as small and medium-sized businesses (Article 4 Categories). The basic requirements are:
- The share of participation of other Russian legal entities in the authorized capital of the LLC cannot be higher than 25%, and the share of foreign companies - 49% ;
- The number of employees should not exceed the limits established by law: for micro-enterprises no more than 15 people , for small enterprises - the maximum allowable value of 100 people, for medium-sized enterprises - no more than 250 people;
- Annual income should not exceed the limits: microenterprises - 120 million rubles ; small enterprises - 800 million rubles; medium-sized enterprises - 2 billion rubles (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation dated April 4, 2016 No. 265).
Companies that are not small and medium-sized businesses submit basic statistical reporting and additional ones. Here you can check the presence of a company in the small business register.
Submission of reports to Rosstat is carried out only in electronic form
Submitting reports to Rosstat on paper does not fully meet the objectives of digitalization of public administration and is associated with a decrease in the quality of work with the specified data, as well as the risk of their unreliability. In this regard, on December 30, 2020, amendments were made to Federal Law No. 282 and obligated everyone to submit statistical reporting only in electronic form with an electronic signature. Small businesses received a deferment for 2021.
However, starting with reporting for 2021, all organizations are required to submit all accounting (financial) statements to the Federal Tax Service in the form of an electronic document signed with an electronic signature.
So, respondents, with the exception of citizens, are obliged to provide Rosstat free of charge with primary statistical data and administrative data necessary for the formation of official statistical information, including data containing information constituting a state secret, information constituting a commercial secret, information about taxpayers, personal data of individuals and other information, access to which is limited by federal laws in the form of an electronic document signed with an electronic signature (Article 8 of Federal Law 282-FZ).
Wage
The project carried out in 2002, 2006 and 2010 by Rosstat and called the “All-Russian Population Census” gained great popularity.
To access any information that is in the public domain, just go to the official website of Rosstat.
The subsection “Salaries” provides information on the average monthly nominal salary. It is formed on the basis of incoming data from enterprises, by dividing the fund of accrued wages of employees by the average monthly number of employees and by the number of months falling within the reporting period.
The salary fund is formed from accrued amounts to employees for the work they have done, incl. compensation payments, allowances, payments, bonuses and the like.

Rosstat official answers about the statistical forms service
Answers from Rostat letters dated February 17, 2021 No. 04-04-4/29-SMI and dated July 26, 2016 N 04-04-4/92-SMI were used.
Is official data posted on the FSGS resource?
Yes, the resource contains official data.
If it says there that an organization must submit one form or another, does that mean a fine for failure to submit it will be legal?
Yes, in accordance with subparagraph c) of paragraph 2 and paragraph 4 of the Regulations on the conditions for the mandatory provision of primary statistical data and administrative data to subjects of official statistical accounting, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 N 620.
How can you find out exactly whether a company is required to submit a form or not?
The list of federal statistical observation forms is compiled as of the end of the year preceding the reporting year, with monthly updating in connection with structural changes in business entities (liquidation of enterprises, creation of new ones, reorganization, change in the status of an organization, etc.). Existing organizations should receive information about the list of federal statistical observation forms at the end of the year preceding the reporting year; newly created organizations should check the information monthly during the first year of their creation. If the respondent is not on the list, reporting is not provided, unless the organization has been notified in writing.
Do Rosstat employees themselves use this resource to find out who is required to submit which forms?
Yes, employees of Rosstat and its territorial bodies use the above resource.
If the FSGS lists the form as mandatory, and the statistics agency has confirmed in writing that it is not necessary to submit it, does this exclude a fine for failure to submit the form?
If the organization has been informed in writing that the form does not need to be submitted, no penalties will be imposed on it.
How to use the new service?
The entrepreneur must enter his OKPO and TIN codes, as well as his state registration number (OGRN or OGRNIP). After this, a list of mandatory reporting forms is downloaded to the user’s computer automatically. The same table provides the frequency and deadline for submitting reports, as well as links to Rosstat pages where you can download their forms for filling out for free. The system works even if the user entered only one of the above search parameters, however, in this case, the list of reports may be incorrect.
Why does the information change: one day one, two days later another? Is this related to the update system? How does it update?
The information retrieval system was developed in 2021 in order to promptly inform business entities about their provision of statistical reporting forms. The list of federal statistical observation forms posted in the specified system for respondents is compiled as of the end of the year preceding the reporting year, with its monthly updating. The monthly updating of lists of forms in the system is due to ongoing structural changes in business entities (liquidation of enterprises, creation of new ones, reorganization, change in the status of an organization, etc.), as well as the frequency of providing statistical reporting forms (monthly, quarterly, semi-annual). Existing organizations should receive information about the list of federal statistical observation forms at the end of the year preceding the reporting year; newly created organizations should check the information monthly during the first year of their creation. Considering the importance of this service for respondents, in the first half of 2021 Rosstat will make significant improvements to the interface aimed at optimizing and increasing the stability of its operation.
Why are “unnecessary” forms included in the lists? What should companies do?
Lists of federal statistical observation forms to be submitted by respondents are formed on the basis of statistical methodology, taking into account the types of economic activities of the organization, including all those declared during state registration. A number of federal statistical observation forms, according to instructions for filling them out, are provided only in the presence of an observed event. Providing “zero” reports for the reporting period on such forms is not required, and the absence of a report is qualified as the absence of a phenomenon by the respondent. For federal statistical observation forms, the instructions for completing which do not contain a requirement to provide data only if a phenomenon exists, it is possible for respondents to inform the territorial bodies of Rosstat in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation with an official letter about the absence of indicators for specific forms of statistical reporting instead of providing “zero” reports (in case of absence of the phenomenon).
Which companies does Rosstat send letters with a list of reports to? To those who were included in the sample?
In accordance with paragraph 4 of the Regulations on the conditions for mandatory provision of primary statistical data and administrative data to subjects of official statistical accounting, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 18, 2008 No. 620, territorial bodies of Rosstat are obliged to inform (including in writing) respondents about carrying out federal statistical observation in relation to them. Informing respondents is carried out by posting lists of reporting forms in the information retrieval system. The sending of an information letter about the conduct of federal statistical observation in relation to an economic entity is, as a rule, carried out to respondents included in sample surveys.
What should those who received a letter from statistics with a list of forms do, but some of the reports from the list are not on the site? Submit a report or clarify information with a statistics agency? How can I clarify?
Organizations included in sample surveys may be notified in writing by state statistics bodies about the provision of specific forms of federal statistical observation. If the list of reporting forms published for the respondent at statreg.gks.ru differs from the one sent to the organization in writing, the written notification should be followed. If it is necessary to clarify questions about filling out and submitting federal statistical observation forms, organizations can contact the territorial body of Rosstat in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation at the location of the organization.
What should companies do to avoid fines? Should I contact the statistics agency in writing? How to prove that we did not miss the deadline, but did not know about the report, since it was not on statreg.gks.ru?
If the organization is not on the list, penalties under Article 13.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation are not applied, except in cases where the respondent, in the manner provided for in paragraph 4 of the Regulations, was informed (including in writing) about the conduct of federal statistical observation against him on specific Federal statistical observation forms are required to be submitted. “Screenshots” are only valid evidence if they contain certain data, i.e. they indicate the date and time of receipt of information from the site on the Internet, contain data about the person who displayed it on the screen and subsequently printed it, data about the software and computer equipment used, the name of the site, and affiliation with the applicant. Thus, if these requirements are met, “screenshots” can serve as supporting documents.

Classification
Let's consider the main types of statistical reporting. In the practice of the Russian state, there are two forms of reporting. Firstly, this is standard statistical reporting (or general), and secondly, specialized. Both of them, as a rule, are provided to departments within a single system.
General reporting is a type of reporting that contains the same data for a certain area of the national economy and for enterprises (institutions) of the national economy as a whole.
The content of specialized reporting includes specific indicators of individual industries and agriculture.
In accordance with documentary recording, all types of statistical reporting usually look like a form drawn up according to standards defined by law. Let's look at what they are.
Data accuracy
It is important to remember that the statistical reporting of an enterprise must reflect reliable information. Distortion of information is unacceptable by law. It is important to build a statistical reporting system at an enterprise so that the data provided to official departments undergo a thorough check for reliability.
A serious condition for verifying information sent to Rosstat is the obligation (in accordance with the relevant provisions of the law) to transfer constituent documents to government agencies along with standard forms. Information from there is used to assign special types of codes and include information about the company in the unified register of enterprises, which is controlled by the department.
Based on the above, reporting provides government authorities with much-needed information. Such reports make it possible to monitor the dynamics of the volume of industrial production and products of various sectors of the national economy, assess the comprehensive development of the country and regions, study the ratio of different forms of ownership by industry and region, and compare the effectiveness of the activities of state and non-state organizations and enterprises.
