According to the draft, the tax service will have to send an order to all operators of digital platforms, where information about goods, works or services of the seller is presented. Marketplace will be obliged to execute the order within two days and notify the tax authority. If the seller comes to the tax office or provides documents, the regulator within two days will send the marketplace an order to resume accepting orders and showing cards.
Operators of intermediary digital platforms (PTP) are required to identify the risks of incorrect calculation, incomplete or late payment of taxes, fees and insurance premiums by sellers. After reporting such a risk, the seller will have 30 days to provide refuting documents.
For non-fulfillment of orders to suspend the acceptance of orders and display cards, PCP operators are proposed to establish a fine of 100,000 rubles.
