Russia’s tax service approves business data list for food price monitoring

The price-related section of the list includes the value of food sales and imports, sales volumes, and price trends for individual products. Agencies will also receive indicators of these products’ contributions to the overall price index.

The list provides for calculating the index using the relative weight of each product and supplying information on the range between the lowest and highest price change indices over the period under review.

Information on market participants will include company names or entrepreneurs’ surnames, first names and patronymics, their taxpayer identification numbers (INN), the special tax regimes they use, and their affiliation with holding groups. The list also includes the number of food sellers and suppliers and information on their transactions.

Financial information covers income reported in returns for corporate income tax, the unified agricultural tax, the simplified taxation system and personal income tax. The value of goods sold will be shared based on value-added tax (VAT) returns. Additional indicators will include profitability and interest expenses on debt obligations as a share of income.

Data will be transmitted through the Federal Tax Service’s automated information system. Information will be exchanged over a secure channel with cryptographic protection. Recipients will be federal executive bodies included in a government-approved list; access will require identification and authentication through the Unified Identification and Authentication System (ESIA).

The Ministry of Justice registered the order on November 6, 2026. The document was assigned registration number 89080.
