- on property;
- for transport;
- to the ground.
IMPORTANT!
It is worth keeping in mind that on the State Services portal you can make transfers to the budget in two ways: through the “Tax debt” option or by using the receipt number (UIN).
Depositing property tax
According to tax legislation, citizens who are the owners of any movable or immovable property are required to pay the appropriate payment to the budget. We are talking about paying property taxes.
To make a payment through the State Services website, you must follow the following steps sequentially:
- First of all, you need to log into your “Personal Account” by entering your password and login in a special field.

- The page that opens will offer several ways to pay property taxes. It can be done:
- via a bank card (Mir, VISA, Mastercard);
- using an electronic wallet (“Yandex.Money”, “WebMoney”, etc.);
- using a mobile phone.
Repayment of land tax debt
Payment of land tax through the Gosuslugi portal will be made according to the same algorithm as described above in the text. Only in this case, in the field for entering the receipt number, you will need to indicate the UIN reflected in the payment order for the payment of land tax.
Payment of transport tax
Transport tax should be paid by analogy with the instructions prescribed for paying debts to the budget on the property of an individual.
In this case, the UIN contained in the transport tax payment receipt should be entered in a special field. That's the only difference. All other actions will be repeated.
Pros and cons of paying transport tax through State Services
Transport tax must be paid on any vehicle.
All vehicle owners annually receive a receipt from the tax service for payment of transport tax. Previously, people went to the nearest tax office to pay the appropriate amount, now they do it online. Compared to the traditional payment method, repaying transport tax through the State Services portal has the following advantages:
- paying taxes anytime and anywhere;
- Three different payment methods are available;
- people do not have to sit in long lines;
- no commission;
- the risk of late payment is eliminated;
- even if you don’t receive a receipt, you can check its availability on the website.
But the service also has its disadvantages:
- The Federal Tax Service database is updated once every two weeks, so if you made a mistake when entering data and sent a payment, you will not be able to find out about it immediately;
- The service does not operate throughout Russia.
Can I pay another person's taxes and how do I do it?
It is worth noting that you can pay taxes not only for yourself, but also for another person. This opportunity appeared for citizens in 2016. For example, adult children can pay tax for their parents, a husband for his wife, etc.
ATTENTION!
In order to make a tax payment for another person via the Internet, you need to know the UIN of his receipt, that is, the unique accrual identifier.
In this case, the payment itself can be made using one of the following methods:
- Go to the “State Services” portal by selecting or “Payment by receipt”.
- Use the nalog.ru website by clicking on the “Payment of taxes for third parties” tab.
It is worth emphasizing that knowing the UIN receipt, you can pay taxes for any person (not just a relative). In this case, the money will be sent strictly for its intended purpose, even if it is debited from the payer’s card.
How do you know that money has been credited towards paying off your tax debt?
Often, citizens who have paid taxes through the “Personal Account” on the Gosuslugi portal or through nalog.ru wonder when the latest information will appear that the debt to the budget has been closed.
It is worth emphasizing that a note about the repaid debt will appear in your “Personal Account” within 10 days from the date of receipt of payment. In this case, the date of actual tax payment is the day the money is written off from the bank account (electronic wallet).
Thus, in order to make sure that the debt is repaid, you must periodically log into your “Personal Account” and check the status of settlements with the budget.
Payment of tax on public services
The service allows you to immediately pay the debt if it is found. To do this, you need to mark it, click pay and make a payment from a bank card, online wallet or mobile phone account.
If the deadline for payment of tax payments has not yet arrived, then they are not visible on the single portal. But if you have a receipt, you can pay for them without any problems. To do this you need to perform 4 steps:
- Open the service in your browser and go to the “Payment” section (you can even do it without authorization).
- Select the “By receipt” tab.
- Enter the UIN and click the “Find” button.
- Select the required accrual and make payment using any available method.
The tax office processes payments within 1-2 weeks, and sometimes takes up to 1 month. All this time, the debt amount will be visible on the portal in the status “Unpaid”. It will disappear after the payment is processed. The date of payment is considered to be the date of the transaction on the service website. If necessary, the Federal Tax Service will adjust the amount of the penalty after receipt of payment.
It’s not difficult to figure out how to find out the car tax through State Services. You don't even need to verify your account to do this. But we must take into account that only overdue debts are visible in the service. Payments for the current year will still have to be found out by receipts or in the taxpayer’s personal account on the Federal Tax Service website.
