The Ministry of Finance has introduced a single personal income tax (PIT) rate of 13-15% for citizens working remotely, including abroad, to prevent the drain of qualified employees. This statement was made by Deputy Finance Minister Alexei Sazanov, RIA Novosti reports.
Last year, the Ministry of Finance proposed to enshrine in the legislation the obligation to pay taxes in Russia for employees of Russian companies working remotely from abroad. The main reason for this proposal was to prevent personal income tax evasion by remote workers who are not tax residents in any country or receive tax residency in a country with low tax rates.
The main discussion then was around the question of the personal income tax rate that employers must pay for employees working abroad: should it be the same as for tax residents of Russia (13%), or the same as for non-residents (30%).
