What reporting must non-profit organizations submit? NPO reports

NPO reports. What reporting must NPOs submit?

These include entities whose activities are not related to making a profit. In NPOs, income received as a result of the actions performed cannot be distributed among the founders, which is the main difference from commercial enterprises. Nonprofit organizations have many similarities to for-profit legal entities. They have their own balance sheet and charter, on the basis of which they carry out their activities, and can open bank accounts. NPOs are also allowed to have stamps, seals and emblems indicating their name. The activities of non-commercial entities are not limited to a certain period.

Non-profit organizations need to ensure timely submission of reports and correct completion of submitted documents. You should know that quite often errors in reports submitted to various government bodies become the cause of claims against an NPO, which may be accused of violating the law and suspend its activities. The NPO submits its first mandatory report on the 15th of the following month after registration with the Federal Tax Service.

Non-profit organizations, along with other enterprises and structures, need to prepare documentation for submission to regulatory authorities in the form of reporting - tax, accounting and statistical. NPOs also report on insurance premiums and submit special reports to the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation. In order to submit all the necessary documents in a timely manner and avoid problems with the law, non-profit entities must know what reports NPOs submit, the deadlines for their submission, and other aspects of reporting that require special attention.

Accounting statements of non-profit organizations

All subjects of non-commercial activities are required to maintain and submit financial statements once a year in accordance with the general rules. When reporting to the relevant authority, they must prepare the following documentation for submission

Balance sheet of non-profit organizations (form No. 1);

Reports confirming the intended use of funds (form No. 6).

Each document is filled out and executed in accordance with the established form; when drawing them up, the features and specifics of the organization’s activities are taken into account.

Some NPOs additionally submit a report on financial results. It appears in the following cases

The nonprofit's work brought in revenue;

The report is necessary to assess the financial condition of the NPO.

If a report on financial results is not required, then income from the operation of the NPO is reflected in the document on the intended use of the funds received.

Accounting statements of non-profit organizations are submitted within 90 days after the end of the reporting period.

The balance sheet of NPOs is somewhat different from the balance sheet prepared by commercial enterprises. Thus, the “Capital and Reserves” section was replaced with “Targeted Financing”. It indicates the amounts of sources of asset formation, and also reflects the balances of target revenues. Also, some other lines in the NPO balance sheet have been replaced, which is due to the nature of the activities of non-profit enterprises.

The report on the targeted expenditure of funds indicates expenses for charitable purposes, various events, wages and other expenses necessary for the functioning of the organization. The amount of financial receipts - total and for specific items - various contributions, income from activities, cash balance at the beginning and at the end of the reporting period.

Important! Accounting reports are submitted annually, but do not forget that tax reports are submitted quarterly! The report to the Pension Fund SZV-M is submitted monthly! Monthly and quarterly reports are mandatory even for inactive (zero) non-profit organizations.

NPO reports to the Ministry of Justice

Subjects of non-profit activities provide NPO reports to the Ministry of Justice, indicating all the necessary information in forms approved by the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation. The submitted reports confirm that there are no foreigners among the NPO employees, and the organization does not have foreign sources of funding.

NPO reporting to the Ministry of Justice, the deadlines for its submission are as follows:

Form No. 1 - the document contains information about the leaders of the non-profit organization, as well as the nature and specifics of its activities;

Form No. 2 - it provides data on the targeted funds and property used;

Form No. 3 - the report reflects all funds and property received by the NPO from international and foreign companies and enterprises, from foreigners and stateless persons. You can fill it out by visiting the official portal of the Ministry of Justice.

All these NPO reports to the Ministry of Justice have the following deadlines for submission - until April 15 of the year following the reporting period.

Some non-profit entities do not submit reports to the Ministry of Justice on certain forms in the following cases:

The organization did not receive funds from foreign companies or foreign persons;

The founders or employees of NPOs are not foreigners;

During the reporting period, the organization received revenues totaling no more than 3 million rubles.

In this case, instead of the first two forms, an application is filled out, which has a free form and meets the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Important. Submitting reports to the Ministry of Justice confirms the NPO’s intention to work this year. In the absence of correctly submitted reports, the Ministry of Justice initiates the forced liquidation of the NPO and there is a risk of disqualification of persons registered in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, in accordance with Federal Law 129.

Unlike the fiscal tax service, the Ministry of Justice does not fine non-profit organizations, but acts in the following order.

  1. The NPO receives an order to submit reports at its legal address. I advise you to always keep track of the legal address of the NPO.
  2. If the NPO has not submitted reports within 30 days, a forced liquidation mechanism is initiated, and the Ministry of Justice makes an appropriate decision.
  3. After 10 days, an entry about the upcoming liquidation appears in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities.
  4. It is published in the newsletter for 3 months. The NPO must have time to eliminate all shortcomings within this period. At this stage, submitting reports is more difficult; it takes about a month.
  5. After publishing the newsletter within 30 days, the NPO is deleted from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. At this stage, nothing can be done.

What is an NPO?

A non-profit organization is an organization whose purpose is not to make a profit, and the income from its activities is not distributed among the founders.

Such a business entity has all the characteristics of a legal entity:

  • has an independent balance;
  • can open bank accounts;
  • has the right to stamps with its name;
  • acts on the basis of the charter;
  • is created for an unlimited period of activity.

At the same time, the organization indicates information about the amounts of sources of formation of its assets. The specific content of this section depends on the legal form of the company.
    The NPO independently determines how detailed the information will be reflected in the balance sheet.

If their range is limited, then the entire amount is allowed to be shown in one line.
  • Report on the intended use of funds. Contains the following information:

Are the financial statements of non-profit organizations presented in full or simplified form in 2019? What reporting forms must a non-profit organization submit? What changes have the accounting reporting forms undergone in 2019? You will find answers to these and other questions in our article.

What are non-profit organizations

The main difference between a non-profit organization and a for-profit organization is its fundamental purpose. The goal of a commercial company is to extract the maximum possible amount of profit.

Non-profit organizations do not pursue the goal of making a profit. This is reflected in Art. 50 Civil Code of the Russian Federation. In their activities, they must first of all be guided by the Civil Code of the Russian Federation and the Law “On Non-Profit Organizations” dated January 12, 1996 No. 7-FZ.

As in commercial structures, the types of activities of a non-profit organization are fixed in its constituent documentation. The activities carried out by such an organization must correspond to the purpose of its creation and operation. Non-profit organizations are founded for the state to implement its functions in the social sphere, education, medicine, and culture. They also conduct religious, charitable and other activities. Non-profit organizations can also be created in the form of associations of citizens and legal entities to solve common problems.

Non-profit organizations can also engage in entrepreneurial activities that generate income. For example, educational institutions may provide additional paid services. But such activities should not contradict the main purpose of the organization. It must also be stated in the constituent documents, for example in the charter. Accounting for income received from the results of such activities is carried out separately from the main one. Legislation may establish certain restrictions on its conduct by certain types of non-profit organizations.

Financial support for non-profit structures is possible in the form of:

  • income from founders or participants;
  • charitable contributions/voluntary donations;
  • income from business activities;
  • income from the organization’s property, for example, from renting out premises;
  • other income permitted by law.

Read about what distinguishes accounting conducted in a non-profit organization in the material “Features and tasks of accounting in non-commercial organizations” .

Forms of non-profit organizations

The Civil Code of the Russian Federation specifies several organizational and legal forms of enterprises that are created on a non-profit basis:

  1. Consumer cooperatives (unions, societies).
    It is generally accepted that such enterprises are formed only for commercial purposes. However, in the non-profit sphere, they can be organized with the purpose of bringing together individuals and legal entities to meet the needs of their members and solve common problems. For example, housing cooperatives, citizen credit societies, gardening and dacha associations, agricultural unions, etc.
    Financing of such organizations is carried out at the expense of participants by contributing shares.
  2. Funds.
    They exist through voluntary contributions from citizens and legal entities. Foundations pursue goals that are beneficial to the whole society: educational, social, cultural. Charitable organizations often operate in the form of foundations.
  3. Public and religious organizations.
    These are voluntary unions and associations of citizens with common interests and intangible (for example, spiritual) needs. Such associations can also function in the form of an institution, a social movement, or a foundation. The founders can be individuals, legal entities, or their associations.
  4. Associations of legal entities (associations, unions).
    They are created to coordinate commercial enterprises and protect them, as well as common interests. The constituent documentation is the constituent agreement, signed by all participants of the association, and the charter. Upon joining such an association, the independence of each member is preserved.
  5. Institutions.
    These include organizations created by the founder(s) to carry out educational, social, cultural and managerial functions. In this case, institutions can be either fully funded by the founders or partially. To conduct their activities, institutions can attract charitable contributions from legal entities and individuals.

Non-profit organizations have the right to submit financial statements in a simplified form, as well as independently determine the detail of its articles and the level of materiality. From June 1, 2019, updated accounting forms must be used.

A non-profit organization is an organization whose purpose is not to make a profit, and the income from its activities is not distributed among the founders.

Such a business entity has all the characteristics of a legal entity:

Has an independent balance;
can open bank accounts;
has the right to stamps with its name;
acts on the basis of the charter;
is created for an unlimited period of activity.

These enterprises are created for social, cultural, educational, political and other similar activities, the purpose of which is to achieve public benefits. The most famous such organizations are charities.

Entities of this kind can carry out commercial activities, but only if it is intended to achieve the goals of the company and the distribution of income received among the founders is not intended. Their activities are regulated by Law No. 7-FZ with the latest amendments dated March 30, 2016.

Financial statements

Non-profit organizations are required to maintain appropriate records, prepare reports and submit them annually. The deadline for submitting completed forms is March 31 of the year following the reporting year.

According to the law, the composition of the account. NPO reporting includes two types of documents, each of which must be drawn up in the prescribed form, taking into account the specifics of the entity’s activities:

Balance sheet. The difference between this report and the form provided for commercial enterprises is the replacement of the “Capital and Reserves” section with “Targeted Financing”. At the same time, the organization indicates information about the amounts of sources of formation of its assets. The specific content of this section depends on the legal form of the company. The NPO independently determines how detailed the information will be reflected in the balance sheet. For example, if an enterprise has a fairly large amount of inventory, then the reporting may show a detailed composition of the inventory. If their range is limited, then the entire amount is allowed to be shown in one line.
Report on the intended use of funds. The document contains the following information:
- the amount of funds used in the activity, including expenses for wages, charity, targeted events, costs for ensuring the functioning of the enterprise;
- balance of funds at the beginning of the year;
- the total amount of money received, including target, membership, entrance and voluntary contributions, profit from business activities is also indicated;
- balance at the end of the year.

You can also write an explanatory note. This document contains a transcript of individual indicators expressed in free form.

Reports can be submitted in paper or electronic form.

Tax reporting

Non-profit organizations also report to the state authorities of the Federal Tax Service. The list of documents depends on the chosen taxation system.

General mode

If an enterprise does not use a special taxation system, then it must submit the following documents to the tax office:

VAT declaration. It is recommended to submit it electronically no later than the 25th day of the month following the end date of the period.
Property tax declaration. If an existing organization has taxable property as part of its assets, it must provide calculations and transfer payments quarterly. Only enterprises that do not own fixed assets are exempt from filling out the form and paying tax. The declaration on advance payments is submitted to the relevant authorities within 30 days after the end of the reporting period. The document containing information about the final calculation must be submitted no later than March 30.
Income tax return. An NPO is recognized as a payer of this tax if it conducts business activities. The form is submitted for each reporting period no later than 28 days after its end. The report for the tax period must be submitted by March 28 of the year following the previous one. If the organization did not conduct business activities, it must submit a special simplified declaration to the territorial inspection. Its due date is also March 28.

Information on the average number of employees. Provided if the company has 100 or more employees. Available until January 20th.
Help 2-NDFL. According to the law, any enterprise is required to report the amount of income tax withheld from employees if their number exceeds 25 people. To do this, you must submit a certificate in the prescribed form to the tax authorities before April 1.

Special systems

In this case, they are required to provide the relevant reports to government authorities:

Declaration according to the simplified tax system. To be filled out if the company is on the simplified tax system (simplified system). In this case, the form must be completed and submitted by March 31 of the year following the previous period.

These entities bear the same responsibility for the information specified in the documents as other enterprises.

Other documentation

NPOs also submit calculations to other government agencies.

Off-budget funds

In total, you need to fill out two forms:

Form 4-FSS. Submitted to the social insurance fund if the number of employees exceeds 25 people. The dates for submitting a document in electronic and paper form differ:
- reporting on paper must be made by January 20;
- electronic calculations are allowed to be submitted until January 25.
Form RSV-1. It is submitted to the territorial bodies of the Pension Fund if the average number of employees exceeds 25 people. The due dates are as follows:
- February 15, if the report is generated on paper;
- February 22, if electronic payment is submitted.

In addition to the reports that are submitted by the organization included in the sample, two mandatory documents must be submitted to the territorial body of Rosstat:

Form No. 1-NPO. Information on the activities of the enterprise must be submitted by April 1 of the year following the reporting year.
Form No. 11 (short). The document contains information about the movement of fixed assets. It must also be submitted to the territorial authorities before April 1.

Non-profit enterprises are required to submit reports on their activities to the Ministry of Justice:

Form No. 0Н0001. It should reflect information about the managers, as well as the nature of the organization’s activities.
Form No. 0Н0002. The completed form contains information about the expenditure of targeted funds, as well as the use of property.
Form No. 0Н0003. To be filled out on the official website of the ministry.

In some cases, companies may not provide these reports. This opportunity appears if:

The NPO did not receive assets from foreign persons, international enterprises, etc.;
the founders or participants are not foreign citizens;
the total amount of receipts for the year does not exceed 3 million rubles.

In this case, instead of forms No. 0Н0001 and 0Н0002, a statement of compliance with legal requirements is submitted. It is compiled in any form.

All of the listed reports must be submitted to the territorial department of the ministry by April 15 of the year following the reporting year.

According to the current legislation, non-profit organizations whose work is aimed at solving public problems are recognized as socially oriented (SO):

Social protection;
assistance in overcoming natural disasters and catastrophes;
animal protection;
protection of buildings and structures that have cultural and historical significance;
provision of legal assistance free of charge or on a preferential basis;
environmental protection;
charity;
prevention of dangerous forms of human behavior;
activities in the field of healthcare, education, culture, science, etc.

Most often they are created in the form of religious organizations, associations, public associations, and autonomous NGOs. Political parties and state corporations cannot be like that.

The reporting of such companies has a number of distinctive features.

Instead of the standard forms that all enterprises submit, they fill out special forms:

Balance sheet of SO NPO.
A report on the intended use of their funds.

In 2016, legislation introduced some new reporting rules for non-profit enterprises.

The difference between the new rules and the old ones is as follows:

Section 3 of the balance sheet is called “Targeted Financing” instead of “Capital and Reserves”, it contains information about targeted funds and funds;
significant information about reporting indicators can be disclosed in the explanatory note to the balance sheet;
small NPOs have the right to draw up simplified forms, including a report on the intended use of funds.

According to changes in 2016, socially oriented associations are no longer considered as a separate category. Their reporting forms no longer have significant differences.

According to the law on accounting - 402 Federal Law Art. 14 “Annual accounting (financial) statements of a non-profit organization, except for cases established by this Federal Law and other federal laws, consist of a balance sheet, a report on the intended use of funds and appendices to them.” In what form (and in what composition) is a non-profit the organization must submit financial statements in 2016 for 2015? (Our non-profit organization did not conduct any activities in 2015, the reporting is empty). Do you need to prepare financial statements in the form of a small business entity or in the form of socially oriented non-profit organizations?

Pavel Gamolsky, President of the Association “Club of Accountants and Auditors of Non-Profit Organizations”

What forms of financial statements must be submitted by NPOs?

All non-profit organizations submit accounting reports according to the general rules once a year, within the standard time frame - within 90 calendar days after the end of the reporting year. There are exceptions for non-profit organizations - consumer cooperatives. They can use simplified accounting forms from Appendix 5 to Order of the Ministry of Finance of Russia dated July 2, 2010 No. 66n.

You can quickly determine the composition of financial statements for non-profit organizations using the table. For information on how to fill out accounting forms, see What documents need to be submitted as part of financial statements.

The general rules are as follows. All NPOs hand over:

Balance sheet

NPOs fill out their balance sheets in a special way. Some sections need to be renamed. For example, Section III should be called not “Capital and Reserves”, but “Targeted Financing”. After all, NPOs do not have the goal of making a profit. Instead of capital and reserves, NPOs reflect the balance of target revenues. The balance sheet lines that NPOs must replace in Section III are named in the table below.

Code of the balance line whose name of the non-profit organization needs to be replaced Line names for commercial organizations NPO line names
Section III of the Balance Sheet “Capital and Reserves” Section III of the Balance Sheet “Targeted Financing”
1310 Authorized capital Unit trust
1320 Own shares purchased from shareholders Target capital
1350 Additional capital (without revaluation) Targeted funds
1360 Reserve capital Fund of real estate and especially valuable movable property
1370 Retained earnings (uncovered loss) Reserve and other target funds

Cash flow statement

The cash flow statement of NPOs is not included in the financial statements. This is directly stated in paragraph 85 of the regulation, approved by order of the Ministry of Finance of Russia dated July 29, 1998 No. 34n.

Other reports

There are special features for funds. They are required to annually publish reports on the use of their property (clause 2 of article 7 of the Law of January 12, 1996 No. 7-FZ).

What documents need to be submitted as part of the financial statements of non-profit organizations

The minimum composition of the annual accounting (financial) statements of a non-profit organization is as follows: Balance sheet, Report on the intended use of funds and appendices thereto. This is stated in Part 2 of Article 14 of the Law of December 6, 2011 No. 402-FZ.

Non-profit organizations must prepare an income statement if the following conditions are met:

  • in the reporting year, the non-profit organization received income from entrepreneurial and (or) other income-generating activities;
  • the income received by the non-profit organization is significant;
  • disclosure of data on profits from business and (or) other income-generating activities in the Report on the intended use of funds is not enough to form a complete picture of the financial position of a non-profit organization, the financial results of its activities and changes in its financial position;
  • Without knowledge of the indicator of income received by interested users, it is impossible to assess the financial position of a non-profit organization and the financial results of its activities.

This conclusion follows from the provisions of Part 1 of Article 13 of the Law of December 6, 2011 No. 402-FZ, paragraphs by Order of the Ministry of Finance of Russia of July 29, 1998 No. 34n).

Non-profit organizations have the right to submit reports using special, simplified forms of Balance Sheet and Report on the Intended Use of Funds. But this rule cannot be applied by non-profit organizations recognized as foreign agents.

In addition, exceptions include lawyer and notary associations, various types of cooperatives, mutual insurance societies, political parties, microfinance, government and self-regulatory organizations, as well as non-profit organizations recognized as foreign agents. Such organizations do not have the right to use simplified accounting methods and submit reports using simplified forms.

Similar conclusions follow from Part 5 of Article 6 of the Law of December 6, 2011 No. 402-FZ.
