You can return the state fee paid through State Services

Grounds for refund of state duty

The traffic police is a government organization that provides a wide range of services: registration of vehicles, recycling, obtaining driver's licenses, replacement of documents, etc. With each application, citizens are required to pay a state fee, otherwise the service will not be provided.

It often happens that people have to return the state duty.

• An excess amount has been paid. For example, if by law you need to pay 350 rubles, but a person mistakenly entered 550 rubles. or another figure, an amount exceeding the established amount can be returned.
• If the provision of a public service was refused by decision of an authorized traffic police officer.
• If the citizen himself first paid the state fee and then refused to receive a government service.

Other situations may arise in which you have to contact the traffic police for a fee refund. It should be taken into account that when it comes to state fees for the court, documents are submitted to the Federal Tax Service. In other cases, they need to be sent to the road inspection - a government agency directly involved in the provision of services.

Personally at the traffic police

A personal visit to the traffic police is the easiest, but time-consuming way. It is good because if questions and problems arise during the preparation of documents, traffic police inspectors usually provide citizens with advice.

An alternative option is to make an appointment with the inspectorate in advance through the State Services portal or on the department’s website itself. In this case, it is enough to arrive at the appointed time, get a ticket, wait no more than 5-10 minutes and go to the appropriate window to submit documents to the inspector.

The step-by-step algorithm for returning is quite simple:

1. Collect a complete package of documents.
2. Download the application and fill it out according to the established template.
3. Submit the application and documents to the traffic police officer.
4. Wait until the review is completed. Government agencies have up to 1 month to refund the state duty.

Money is always returned by bank transfer using the bank details provided by the applicants.

How to fill out an application?

• name and address of the traffic police;
• passport details;
• phone number;
• email address for sending a response (optional);
• reason for the return (be sure to refer to Article 333.40 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, which gives you the right to return the money);
• the exact amount to be refunded, including kopecks;
• bank account details where the money should be transferred;
• date and signature.

After submitting the application, in response, the traffic police officer will issue you a notification, which will contain information about him: full name, position, rank. This notification must be kept: if your money is not returned, it will serve as proof of the appeal in the future.

Documents required for return through Sberbank

Refunds are allowed only if the payer has all the necessary documentation in hand. First of all, this concerns the drafted statement, which describes the key points in detail.

Important! The applicant’s positive outcome directly depends on the described circumstances of what happened (the validity of the drawn up claim), which is why the literacy of the document should be maximum.

It is possible to indicate several reasons on which the transferred money can be legally returned through Sberbank, a payment terminal or in another way.

In 2021, PJSC Sberbank of Russia is connected to the GIS GMP system (Gosinformsistema on state and municipal payments), which is why, when submitting an application to the government department where it was planned to receive the service, there is no need to provide:

• receipt of payment of state duty;
• other payment documents confirming the transfer of funds.

Those. only an application is required.

If the fee is not returned on time

If you sent an appeal, but did not receive a response and the money is not transferred either, a penalty begins to accrue.

where SV is the amount to be returned, KDP is the number of days of delay, SR Central Bank is the refinancing rate of the Central Bank.

Let's look at a practical example:

The citizen mistakenly paid an excess of 500 rubles, submitted documents for a refund, but did not receive a response. The number of days overdue at the time of calculation is 20.

If the state duty is not returned to you in a timely manner, you can appeal the inaction of the traffic police officers through a higher-ranking head of the department.

1. Prepare documents, including a notice of acceptance of the application from the inspector, if you submitted it in person. If the application was sent through the traffic police service, you will need a notification of its registration - it is always sent to an email address.
2. Submit a complaint along with other documents for consideration.
3. Wait for a response – it will arrive within 1 month.

If the fault is really with the department, the money will be transferred to you as soon as possible. If the complaint is refused, an official response will be sent from the traffic police explaining the reasons. If you disagree with them, you can appeal the refusal in court.

When will the state duty not be refunded?

Refund of state fees may be refused in several situations:

• The deadline for submitting documents has been missed - 3 years. As mentioned earlier, in this case it will have to be restored first, and only after that will the money be returned.
• There were serious errors in the application: the name or address of the department was incorrectly indicated, reliable personal data was missing, and bank details were entered incorrectly.
• Lack of evidence of payment of state duty. If you made a payment through a bank cash desk, you need to save the receipt. If the operation was performed through your personal bank account online, you can find it in the history and print the receipt yourself.
• An unauthorized person contacts the traffic police. If a person who wants to return the money cannot submit documents on his own, he can do this through a legal representative by proxy. If there is no power of attorney, the inspector will refuse admission.

There may be other reasons - they are always indicated in a written notification from the traffic police. If your refund is denied, you can eliminate the reason and submit the documents again.

The fee is a mandatory government fee for providing assistance in matters of various nature: registering property rights, obtaining a driver’s license or a new category, sending for recycling. It is paid through the government services portal, through special terminals in banks, and at traffic inspection offices.

Sometimes people make mistakes during the payment process and decide to refuse the service.

Let's find out how to return the state duty if the traffic police did not use it.

In what cases will you not be able to get your money back?

There are several situations when you will not be able to exercise your right to a refund of the paid state duty.

• If the return application was drawn up in violation of legal requirements or with an error in personal data. Therefore, carefully check the name and name of the body where you are sending the data.
• The person who is trying to return money for the state fee is not a potential or actual recipient of the service. For example, you paid a fee for registering a contract for the sale and purchase of a car. Then they decided to refuse the sale, but transferred the right of return to the buyer. He is trying to get the money back for the fee. The traffic police will refuse to return it because the rule regarding the applicant has not been followed.
• You do not provide the fact of payment of the state fee. If you do not have a receipt that confirms the fact that you transferred money to the traffic police, then your attempt to return the funds will fail. It is not the responsibility of the employees to analyze and search specifically for your payment among thousands of similar ones received daily in the centralized database. Therefore, the best way is to never throw away receipts for state fees. At least in the first three years after receiving the service.
• If you have changed your registration information and full name, then most likely the fee refund process will drag on and it is unlikely that a positive decision will come out in your favor.

The return of the state duty from the traffic police occurs quickly in three cases - if you decide to refuse the service, the traffic police did not carry out the service, or you paid more. The remaining options are a long and cumbersome process. Therefore, we recommend that you be more careful in such situations and do not transfer money until you are completely sure of the recipient and the name of the service.

However, this rarely happens. Much more often, payers immediately notice that they have overpaid, and therefore quickly submit an appeal requesting a refund of the overpaid money. During the first three years, any payer can legally demand their money back by submitting an application to the local traffic police either through the website or by personally contacting the department if they were mistakenly paid in favor of the insurance company.

After the policyholder sends an appeal for the return of money, it is reviewed by a special commission. Five working days are allotted for consideration .

After these five days, if it was recorded that the policyholder overpaid for compulsory motor liability insurance, then the extra money will be used to pay the next payment or debt, if it is registered with the payer. The notification will be sent to the citizen within three working days.

If the commission has decided that a refund is not possible , it will send a notification to the payer within three working days . In it, the commission must indicate on what basis a refund is not possible.

State bodies comply with all designated deadlines. The reason for this is the legislation of the Russian Federation, according to which, if the money is not returned within the due date, then interest will be added to the amount from the state budget for the inconvenience caused. So, it is in the interests of government agencies to make a decision to return or refuse to return vehicles within the agreed time frame.

Refund of state fees paid to the traffic police

The state duty is returned based on the payer’s application . The application must be submitted within three years from the date of payment.

The overpaid amount of state duty is returned within a month from the date of the specified refund application.

An application for a refund of state duty is submitted to a body or official (for example, the traffic police), which is authorized to perform legally significant actions.

If it is necessary to return money for state fees in cases that are being heard in the courts, an application is submitted to the tax office at the location of the court in which the case is being heard.

How to return an erroneously paid state duty to the traffic police? The application must be accompanied by original payment documents confirming payment of the state duty.

How to return overpaid state duty to the traffic police? A partial refund occurs after submitting an application and a copy of documents confirming payment of the state duty.

If the applicant submits an application for the return of funds paid for the state fee in those cases that are being considered by the court, a decision, a ruling on the return of the state fee or a court certificate stating that a full or partial refund of the fee is justified is attached to the application.

There is no single application form. The applicant draws up an application at his own discretion. But the law regulates that the constituent entities of the Russian Federation reserve the right to establish rules for completing the application.

It is necessary to indicate information about the payer of the state duty, the basis for payment or return of funds, and bank details where the money should be transferred.

The application, which is submitted to the Tax Service, is drawn up in a certain form, which was established by Order of the Federal Tax Service dated February 14, 2017 No. ММВ-7-8/ [email protected]

If the applicant submitted an application and other documents, but the money from the treasury was not returned on time, interest will be added to the total amount. Interest is calculated using the following formula:

Amount of state duty * number of overdue days * 1/300 of the refinancing rate valid at the time the delayed payment appeared = interest on the late payment.

If the applicant was unable to return the money for the state fee, it can be used to re-apply to the traffic police or another authorized body. If 3 years have not yet passed from the date of payment, you do not need to pay the state duty again. The old receipt is attached to all other documents.

The procedure for returning state duty to the traffic police

To return the money, you must submit an appropriate application; you can take it in person to the nearest branch or send it online using the state traffic inspectorate website.

Important! Along with your application, you must provide a receipt and check confirming payment for inspection services, otherwise your request will not be satisfied. Additionally, you must provide a copy of your passport (page with registration).

According to the law, the traffic police is obliged to respond to a citizen’s application within a month from the date of application. We recommend submitting an application to your district department and giving it to the employee in person - this way the government agency will not have the opportunity to delay its response. Having accepted your application, the traffic police officer must issue a form in which his full name, position, signature will be indicated and the date of acceptance of the application will be recorded.

When money is not returned

The payer will not be able to exercise the right to a refund if:

1. There were errors in the return application, or there were violations of legal requirements, or incorrect personal data. It is necessary to carefully check the name of the authority to which the data is sent.
2. The applicant trying to return funds for the state fee is not the real recipient of the service. This is possible if the fee for registering a contract of sale of a vehicle has been paid. The payer then decided to refuse the sale, but transferred the right of return to the buyer. The traffic police will refuse to return it.
3. The payer did not provide the fact of payment of the state duty. There is no receipt confirming the fact of transfer of money to the traffic police. You should not throw away receipts for state fees. At least in the first three years after receiving the service.
4. When changing registration data in full name.

When will the paid state duty not be returned?

The traffic police fee is not refunded in the following cases:

• In case of violation of the requirements of the law when paying - gross errors regarding the indication of incorrect details, reporting of personal data - last name, patronymic, other information, concealment or deliberate distortion.
• Submission of an application by an unauthorized person. If a contract for the sale and purchase of a car has been completed. The duty was paid by the buyer, and the demand for its return was transferred to the seller by agreement of the parties without securing the relevant powers, for example, by power of attorney.
• Lack of confirmation of payment of the state duty from the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate - details of the receipt, number or date of payment were not provided, there is no copy of the document.
• If the registration data is changed , in such situations the return process is greatly delayed and does not always bring a positive result.

In case of refusal to refund the duty, the decision of the traffic police can be appealed in court. The petition itself is not subject to a fee to the budget. The review is carried out within 10 days with a call from representatives of the government body and the applicant. The procedure for conducting the process is regulated by Articles 124-127, 131 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. The period for filing an administrative claim should not be more than 3 months from the moment the person learned of a violation of his legal rights - receiving the act in person or by mail under Article 219 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. If there are good reasons, the period for filing a claim may be restored by the court upon presentation of supporting documents.

The court has the right to cancel the effect of a decision of a state body in accordance with paragraph 1 of paragraph 2 of Article 227 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation in connection with the violation of the legal rights and interests of citizens. From the moment of adoption of the act, no more than 1 month must pass, allotted for notifying the interested person about the issued act (clause 9 of Article 227 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation). The court refuses to satisfy the complaint if no grounds for refunding the fee are identified.

For your information

Before going to court, you have the opportunity to appeal the decision to a higher authority. In relation to regional traffic police departments, this will be the regional department of the road service. In practice, this option gives a positive option if there are legal grounds for canceling the refusal to refund.

Execution of a judicial act on the return of funds for paid state duty to the traffic police is carried out upon presentation of a decision that has entered into force at the Bailiff Service or the branch of the Treasury of the Russian Federation at the place of payment.

The amount of the state fee for issuing a driver's license

The amount of the state duty for issuing a driver’s license is regulated by Article 333.33 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation:

Section 333.33. Amounts of state duty for state registration, as well as for performing other legally significant actions

43 1 ) for the issuance of a national driver's license, including in replacement of a lost or unusable one:

Currently, only plastic driver's licenses are issued in Russia. The state fee for issuing a license is 2,000 rubles .

Starting from August 3, 2021, new certificates with a built-in storage medium can also be issued. For the production of such rights you will have to pay 3,000 rubles .

Discount on payment of state duty

In 2021, you can pay the state fee for issuing a driver’s license with a 30 percent discount. Article 333.35 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation:

Example. Driver candidate Petr Petrov began taking exams at the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate on January 1, 2021. However, he failed to pass either the first or the second time. Then he went on a business trip, and when he returned, he completely forgot about the exams.

As a result, Peter successfully passed the exam on March 1, 2021. At the same time, to issue a certificate, he will be able to use the state fee paid in 2021.

However, please note that if the traffic police changes the payment details , then the old fee cannot be used. Therefore, the state fee will have to be paid again, and the old fee can be returned.

In what cases are you guaranteed to receive a refusal from the department of internal affairs?

2. The applicant is not the recipient of the service and at the same time is trying to return the money for the state fee.
3. Lack of payment document. No matter how reliable the State Services portal is, electronic receipts should be stored for 3 years on a storage device or PC.
4. Changing registration data in last name/first name/patronymic without confirmation.
5. Corrections to the application.

Using the website, it’s easy to return money for the state duty to the traffic police.

If for some reason you cannot make an online application, you will have to work the old fashioned way. We tell you all the details.

Deadlines for returning the duty to the traffic police

You need to understand that in different cases, payment of the state fee can be made again at different stages of receiving the service (here you can find out how to return money for the state fee in other government agencies). It is worth carefully studying the algorithm for providing the service at the traffic police and clarifying the list of documents that must be provided to obtain it. Sometimes it happens that employees may offer to pay the fee immediately, although you may well make the payment within ten days after receiving the service, if this is not regulated by separate legislative acts. You can file a claim for a refund of funds either immediately or within three years - this is the statute of limitations in Russia, which is quite legitimate to apply in the situation of making demands on the traffic police for the return of money. After all, in case of refusal, you will have to go to court if you decide to fight for your money.

The period given by the traffic police to respond to you after receiving a refund claim is 30 days.

After notifying you of the decision, the department has another 10 days to transmit the information to the Treasury and you will be placed in line to receive a cash posting.

How to write an application correctly

At the very top of the application you need to indicate the department to which you are sending the appeal. Everything is simple here - if we receive the service in person, then we write the department where you visited.

If there is another way, then the required address and name of the department can always be found on the official website of the traffic police. Below indicate your last name, first name, patronymic, residential address, contact phone number, passport details (series, number, who issued it, when it was issued, department code).

The subject part of the application must indicate:

• Reason for return with reference to Article No. 333.40 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. So we write: “In accordance with Article 333.40 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation, I ask you to return the overpaid state fee for such and such a service.” If there are several reasons, we indicate all of them
• You need to indicate exactly where the payment was made, write the check number or other information from the payment receipt that will help specialists identify your payment
• Specify the exact transfer amount, down to the penny
• Add the line “Please transfer the funds returned for payment of the state duty to ...” and indicate the payment details of the bank and your account
• We add the date of drawing up the claim and sign it using the signature itself, last name and initials next to it

Be sure to attach a copy of the receipt confirming payment of the state duty. We invite you to familiarize yourself with a sample application to the traffic police for a refund of state duty ().

How to return money for an incorrectly paid state duty to the traffic police

Situations when you incorrectly entered the details of the recipient of the money into the terminal, or accidentally clicked to select another service instead of the desired one, are not uncommon.

• If you chose the wrong service, but sent money to the traffic police, then you can try to return the funds using the method described above
• If you made a mistake in the details and sent money to another recipient, then you need to urgently contact the bank and demand that the payment be cancelled. You usually have 24 hours to get your money back for an incorrect payment.
