- With the profit received for the year over 4 000 ₽ or to 15 thousand. rub. for one lottery ticket, players must independently pay to the state treasury. If payment is made at the end of the current year, you can specify a fixed amount in 4 000 RUB.
- If the player managed to win more than 15 000 rubles for one coupon, full tax will be deducted upon receipt of money. The organizer acts as the client's personal tax agent and transfers to the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation the necessary 13% of the total payment.
There are two ways to fill out the income tax return for a certain period - personally visit the branch of the Federal Tax Service and write an application or submit it electronically, attaching copies of all documents, which legislators will ask.
