In the Astrakhan region, migrants will be taxed almost 7.5 thousand rubles

In the Astrakhan region, it is planned to establish for 2027 a monthly tax payment for foreign citizens working under a patent in the amount of 7,491 rubles 38 kopecks. As it became known to MK in Astrakhan, the adoption of the initiative will bring an additional 617.1 million rubles to the budget system of the region.

We are talking about a fixed advance payment on personal income tax. It must be made by foreigners who work in Russia on the basis of a patent. The amount of payment depends not only on the federal parameters, but also on the coefficient set by the regional authorities.

How much will you have to pay for a patent

For 2027 in the Astrakhan region it is proposed to establish a regional coefficient in the amount of 2.077. It will be used to calculate the monthly payment.

The basic amount stipulated by the Tax Code is 1200 rubles per month. It is multiplied by the federal deflator coefficient and the regional coefficient.

With a deflator coefficient of 3,006 and the proposed regional coefficient of 2.077, the estimated amount will be 7491.38 rubles per month.

Thus, for 12 months of work on a patent, a foreign citizen will need to transfer about 89.9 thousand rubles in the form of fixed advance payments on personal income tax. This amount is calculated based on the proposed monthly payment.

The new size does not automatically apply to all foreign workers. It applies to those who work on the basis of a patent.

Why did you choose this amount

When determining the coefficient, the forecast of the average monthly income from labor activity in the Astrakhan region for 2027 was taken into account. It is 57 626 rubles.

For the calculation, the personal income tax rate of 13% was used. As a result, the amount of 7,491.38 rubles was received, which became the benchmark for the monthly payment of foreign workers.

Then, based on this amount, the base payment of 1,200 rubles and the deflator coefficient, the regional coefficient of 2.077 was calculated.

The legislation allows the subjects of Russia to independently set such an indicator for the next calendar year. If the region does not do this, the coefficient is taken to be equal to one.

The budget expects to receive more than 600 million

As it became known, the adoption of new rules should provide additional revenues to the consolidated budget of the region in the amount of 617.1 million rubles.

Of this amount, it is planned to send 370.3 million rubles directly to the regional budget. The remaining revenues fall on other levels of the consolidated budget.

Importantly, the forecast of additional revenues is calculated when comparing the proposed coefficient of 2.077 with a coefficient of 1. Therefore, this amount cannot be considered an increase in revenues compared to the current conditions of 2026.
