The Federal Tax Service tightens taxes on sellers' bonus points: income is recognized upon accrual
The Federal Tax Service tightens taxes on sellers' bonus points: income is recognized upon accrual
1,862 10.02
The Federal Tax Service is changing its approach to bonus points on marketplaces: payments that compensate for sellers' discounts are increasingly being interpreted as an economic benefit and should be included in the tax base. The key dispute is when to recognize income: when awarding points or only when they are "monetized". The regulator's new view may force sellers to recalculate the economics of promotions, restructure accounting, and more closely compare reports with site data.

After the New Year holidays, sales on Wildberries sank for the majority, but each card has its own depth of decline: price, balances, seasonality and how buyers passed the funnel during a period of low demand decide. The mistake of many is to try to “buy off” positions with bids. In fact, WB evaluates the card by stages: impression, click, shopping cart, order — and compares it with competitors within the query cluster. We're looking at how to diagnose the drop point and restore sales without dr

Starting from July 1, 2026, trucks from the EAEU countries risk stopping at the border without a valid QR code: the pilot SPOT starts on April 1, and then the system will link access to a preliminary document from the Federal Tax Service and, in the second half of the year, to reserving the amount for VAT and excise taxes. Lawyers advise changing contracts now: a valid QR code should be a condition for departure for loading, otherwise a simple one due to customer errors will fall on the carrier.

Assignment and debt transfer are not a "gray life hack", but a tool for managed adjustment of calculations. But in 2026, the main risk is not the legal structure itself, but how the bank sees it. Therefore, the task of the Foreign economic activity director today sounds simple.: first, the compliance architecture and documents, then the signatures.

The trucking market may enter a phase where tariffs will not be "stacked", but assigned according to a formula by the largest ecosystems. According to the Institute for Transport Development, the point of no return will come when retailers and marketplaces begin to control about a third of transportation: warehouses, data, LTL networks and their own fleets will give them leverage over rates for the entire market.

Wildberries & Russ has set its sights on the "far abroad": the company is preparing a pilot launch in Ethiopia and simultaneously assessing the potential of India and a number of Southeast Asian countries. This is not a one-time PR story, but a test of a new growth model — through international supply chains, local payments, and fulfillment infrastructure. For foreign economic activity, this means the possible emergence of new export channels and increased compliance requirements for sellers

The talks between Russia and the UAE in the Kremlin on January 29 became a conversation not only about politics, but also about the risks that directly affect foreign economic activity. The agenda includes the escalation around Iran, diplomatic efforts in Ukraine and the development of trade and investment cooperation. For logistics, this means one thing: the Middle East is becoming a key hub for routes and settlements, and the cost of errors in compliance and insurance will increase.

What should I do if the customs decided to open each box in the rain? And why doesn't even insurance always save you from losses? This article examines the real, rather than theoretical, reasons why supply disruptions have become the norm, and what can be done about it in practice.
