FAQ
TrendAgent does not submit information to the Federal Financial Monitoring Service (Rosfinmonitoring), as it is not an entity required to register in accordance with Federal Law No. 115 (Articles 5 and 7). According to the terms of the offer, commissioners (TrendAgent) do not operate as a real estate agency, which is confirmed by the absence of the corresponding OKVED code (68.31 or similar), as well as by the business model, which does not involve direct participation in real estate transaction support.
The real estate agency independently determines the necessity and procedure for registration with Rosfinmonitoring. Information is available, in particular, on the Rosfinmonitoring website: Rosfinmonitoring — Registration.

Taxes on this amount are paid by the principal, since it is the principal who receives income from the transaction and pays the remuneration to the commissioner. If taxes are not paid, possible consequences include additional tax assessment, late payment interest, and penalties (usually 20% of the amount).
For self-employed individuals (under the NPD system), violations — such as failure to pay taxes or exceeding the income limit — may lead to retroactive loss of status and the accrual of personal income tax (PIT) and social insurance contributions. Similarly, if an individual entrepreneur (IE) or legal entity exceeds the income limit under the simplified tax system (STS), taxes may be recalculated under the General Tax Regime (GTR).
If a real estate agency operates under STS, according to subparagraph 24, paragraph 1, article 346.16 of the Russian Tax Code, commission and agency remunerations may be considered as expenses.
The procedure for accounting such expenses is outlined in the Letter of the Moscow Office of the Federal Tax Service dated 04.02.2009 N 20−14/9 034.
