In the past 2017, the legislation in the sphere of circulation of alcoholic products, in particular beer, has undergone some changes. Penalties for violations in this area were toughened, and some provisions regarding the rules for the circulation of alcohol-containing products were also changed.

The essence of the law

The main legal document in the field of alcohol sales, and beer in particular, is adopted by the State Duma of the Russian Federation in July and approved by the Federation Council of the Russian Federation in November 1995.

Structurally, the law 171-FZ is represented by four chapters, which include 27 articles. Consider summary law, outlining the main theses:

Chapter 1. General provisions : the scope of the law, basic concepts, specialized legislation, the state monopoly on the production and circulation of alcohol and alcohol, the powers of federal and local authorities in this area.

Federal Law on trade in new edition

Article 18, paragraph 1, states that production and circulation of beer and beer drinks are not subject to licensing. Recall that the term "turnover" (according to paragraph 16 of Article 2) includes the purchase, supply, storage, transportation and retail sale.

On January 1, 2018, the delays and indulgences that applied to the Crimea and the city of Sevastopol ended. Now, the requirements for the production and circulation of alcohol in this territory are presented in full.

Are there penalties for breaking the law?

In July 2017, the President signed a law amending the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, which provides for increased liability for the illegal sale of alcohol. Responsibility for violation of the rules for the production and sale of alcoholic products is prescribed in articles 14.16 - 14.19 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

Have the innovations in the draft law on alcohol in Russia touched on the topic of beer licensing?

No. A license for the sale of beer and beer drinks is not required.

Where not to sell beer

We list the places where the sale of beer is prohibited:

1. Places of immediate proximity with any buildings with educational, medical, cultural and sports institutions located in them and inside them,
2. Passenger stops of transport and public transport itself,
3. Gas stations,
4. Crowded objects - market complexes, air terminals, railway stations, river ports, seaports.
5. Mobile points of sale. In Russia, they are stalls, kiosks, temporary structures, including points of sale for hot dogs, shawarma, pancakes, pastries, Belgian waffles, and so on, as well as mobile shops related to the type of exit trade.

Enterprises - exceptions that have a special right to sell beer - catering organizations.

Among other things, the law provides for a rule according to which beer can be sold to the population on the territories of certain socio-cultural objects, but only if they have halls for visitors, in which beer will be sold.

Socio-cultural facilities where the sale of beer is allowed:

• theaters and concert halls,

• in countryside above 25 m 2.

Selling beer at night

The sale of beer is allowed from 8:00 to 23:00.

Beer advertisement. How not to break the law

In Russia, an important legislative document on the advertising of alcohol, including beer, is Federal Law 38 “On Advertising” dated March 13, 2006, the latest version of which was approved on March 28, 2017. The norms of the law on alcohol are directly reflected in Art. 21.

Beer advertisements may be placed in periodicals, but the law prohibits beer advertisements on the front and back pages of these advertisements. In addition, publication is prohibited. marketing information, containing the presentation of beer, on the front side of the magazine - its cover.

The law does not prohibit the advertising of beer products during the broadcast of sports events - as in the case of shows in live, as well as in the record. However, the State Duma prescribed exceptions to this provision, which refers to the prohibition of beer advertising when showing sports events for children and teenagers and during broadcasts, when physical education and sports topics are shown on TV and radio channels.

Ban on the sale of beer in plastic containers in 2017

A ban has been introduced on the sale of alcohol in PET containers with a volume of more than 1.5 liters (clause 6.1, article 11 of the Law).

Until mid-2017, this rule only applied to manufacturers and wholesalers, and now it also applies to stores selling beer to the public.

Failure to comply with the norm of the law provides for administrative liability, regulated by part 4 of article 14.17 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. This provision was amended in the last version of the law.

Penalties for the sale of beer in PET with a volume of more than 1.5 liters:

a fine is imposed on the director of the organization and is issued in the amount of 100 to 200 thousand rubles;

a fine is imposed on the organization itself and is issued in the amount of 300 to 500 thousand rubles.

Seizure of products by the state - confiscation - is also one of the possible measures that can be applied to the violator.

Since the amount of fines is quite large, violation of key innovations in the law on the sale of strong and low alcohol drinks can be a significant blow to small businesses.

Do I need EGAIS to sell beer?

One of the unique tasks of the Unified State Automated Information System EGAIS is to track the volume of production and movement of alcoholic beverages within the state.

Organizations producing alcohol have an obligation to organize accounting of its volumes and transfer information data to EGAIS.

Organizations and individual entrepreneurs– wholesale buyers of beer for sale to the population as well must arrange a connection to the EGAIS system, thereby confirming the fact that the batch of alcohol in wholesale was purchased from official manufacturers and suppliers.

Many people believe that the beer trade brings a good profit to the business owner. Is it really? The state is constantly changing the rules of the game and making it more difficult, causing many to abandon sales and move into a less regulated industry. In this article, we will look at what new beer rules entered into force due to changes in legislation and what needs to be considered before opening a new “point” for sale.

Who can sell

Before the adoption of the law, there were persistent rumors that individual entrepreneurs would be completely banned from selling a foamy drink and they would have to register an LLC. In fact, the lawmakers still did not dare to take this step, so the IP has legal right for the sale of beer.

Beer can be sold at retail without obtaining a license

True, the conditions in 2017 still became more complicated. They introduced the following restrictions:

1. Retail sale of the drink is allowed only in stationary objects owned. Sale from mobile facilities or temporary premises is prohibited.
2. A store selling a drink at retail should not be located near hospitals, cinemas, theaters, schools, kindergartens and other children's, cultural, educational or medical institutions.
3. It is forbidden to sell beer at gas stations, in the market, at bus / railway stations, in checkpoints or crowded places.
4. You can not engage in the implementation if the owner does not have required documents(payment, bill of lading, etc.).
5. In the period from 22-00 to 10-00 (the ban may be regional in nature).
6. The sale of alcoholic beverages to persons under the age of majority is strictly prohibited.
7. An entrepreneur selling alcohol is required to keep records in the appropriate form (this rule is regulated by the PAP).

Innovations in the law

How will beer sales in 2017-2018? New rules for IP, which entered into force this year, regulate that entrepreneurs are required to send accurate information about how much beer was purchased to the unified state automated information system. But you no longer need to report on the number of products sold - by default, it is considered that everything purchased was sold in full. It is on the basis of EGAIS that control over the sale of goods is carried out, which makes it possible to track “left” deliveries and counterfeit goods. We will analyze who exactly should submit information through the information system:

1. Retail outlets selling goods within settlements.
2. Individual entrepreneurs who purchase a drink for the purpose of its subsequent sale at a retail outlet.
3. Suppliers who deal wholesale sales, purchases and storage of the drink.
4. Public catering establishments that have permission to sell when purchasing a product (bar, restaurant, club, cafe, etc.).

Attention:It doesn't matter what kind of beer an individual entrepreneur or outlet sells - an entrepreneur must submit data on the purchase of both piece and draft products.

Beer can be sold at a distance from certain places and establishments

Failure to provide data to EGAIS

So, we have decided on who has the right to implement and how to report. Now let's consider what sanctions can be applied to an entrepreneur who has violated the relevant norms. If an individual entrepreneur does not work with the system or transmits deliberately incorrect data to it, then a fine of 10-15 thousand rubles is imposed on him. It should be borne in mind that there are several categories of IP for which a certain delay applies. Entrepreneurs working in rural areas are not required to submit data until July 1, 2017 (after July 1, the delay no longer works). From 01/01/2018, individual entrepreneurs working in the Crimea and Sevastopol will have to connect to the system, after which the grace period will be completely canceled.

Do I need a license to trade

Many businessmen are wondering: do I need a license to sell low-alcohol products? This norm is regulated by Federal Law No. 171 (Article 18). It states that as of 2018, a license is not needed to sell beer, so there is no need to purchase it (but deputies constantly talk about the possibility of introducing this rule, so we recommend that you monitor possible changes). If the norm is adopted and enters into force, and the individual entrepreneur does not have a license, then this threatens with serious fines and even the closure of the business.

Conclusion

Above, we have considered all the controversial issues andNow here are the main theses that should be taken into account in the activity:

1. The sale of a foamy drink can be carried out by both LLC and officially registered individual entrepreneurs.
2. The LLC has the right to wholesale, store or purchase goods, while the entrepreneur purchases beer only for retail.
3. As of 2017-2018, a trading license is not required.
4. Sale is allowed at a certain distance from schools, kindergartens, hospitals and public institutions.
5. The purchase is carried out only by individual entrepreneurs or LLCs connected to EGAIS.
6. From April 1, 2017, beer can only be sold at points equipped with a cash register.
7. An individual entrepreneur or LLC receives OKVED-2 codes for work.
8. An individual entrepreneur is obliged to keep a log of sold alcoholic products and submit it to the relevant authorities.

In contact with

Open an individual entrepreneur selling draft beer is the dream of many young entrepreneurs. Interesting product, good demand, equipment and rent not too burdensome trading platform. And everything would be fine, but the special requirements for the beer trade and constant inspections by regulatory authorities often nullify both the pleasure and profit from doing business. What will a businessman have to face when choosing such a specialization for his business? This is what our article is about. So, let's begin…

The most popular questions about the sale of beer, which are asked by individual entrepreneurs:

• Can an individual entrepreneur trade beer in 2019?
• What documents are needed to sell beer in 2019 for an individual entrepreneur?
• Do I need a license to sell beer for an individual entrepreneur in 2019?
• What is the latest news about beer and EGAIS for individual entrepreneurs?

First of all, we note that the sale of beer for individual entrepreneurs in 2019 is the only permitted type of sale of products that contain alcohol. Beer, cider, mead and other beer-based drinks - that's all that an individual entrepreneur can trade. Strong alcohol can only be traded by legal entities. Therefore, to the question whether an individual entrepreneur can sell beer, the answer is unequivocal - yes, it can. Another question is whether he wants to get involved with this ... There is a number of requirements, which significantly limit the businessman who has chosen this particular one.

Requirements for the beer business:

1. Beer can be sold at retail only in stationary premises. You cannot sell beer in temporary premises - in stalls, mobile pavilions, etc. The only exception is a temporary premises functioning as a catering point (for example, a bar or a summer cafe): here beer can be offered for sale among other services.
2. There are a number of EGAIS reporting requirements for individual entrepreneurs for beer (we will discuss in detail below).
3. A beer shop should not coexist with medical, educational, and various cultural institutions.
4. It is forbidden to sell beer at gas stations, train stations, public transport, markets and other crowded places.
5. Do not sell beer to minors.
6. It is forbidden to sell beer without accompanying documents for goods.
7. According to the sale time, there is a ban on the sale of beer from 22:00 to 10:00 the next morning.
8. It is obligatory to keep a book taking into account the sale of beer in a special form approved by RosAlcoRegulation.

EGAIS for individual entrepreneurs selling beer

What is EGAIS for beer for an individual entrepreneur? The purpose of introducing the Unified State Automated Information System is to improve control over the manufacture, movement and sale of products containing alcohol, including beer. This applies to all manufacturers, suppliers and end-sellers of alcoholic products.

Ideally, under such a system, each bottle would be labeled and traceable from the factory to the consumer's hands. As usual, the good intention (the fight against counterfeit products) resulted in a big headache for individual entrepreneurs.

How to start an IP for EGAIS (beer retail):

1. An individual entrepreneur is obliged to connect to the federal information system EGAIS. In this case, you will need to purchase a crypto-key, buy electronic signature(CEP), register on the egais.ru website, download and install the UTM utility, check the compatibility of your inventory program with UTM.
2. Upon receipt of the goods from the supplier, the individual entrepreneur receives an invoice on his computer and checks the goods with the data in it.
3. If the information in the invoice corresponds to the facts, then the individual entrepreneur must accept the invoice and record the purchase in the Unified State Automated Information System.
4. If the information in the electronic invoice does not correspond to the actual indicators for the product (for example, there are discrepancies in the number of products or the markings on individual products are damaged), then the entrepreneur rejects the electronic invoice or draws up an act fixing the discrepancy.
5. Further, the data on the purchased beer must be loaded into the cash register program (if the individual entrepreneur uses cash registers).

The question of the advisability of introducing such a procedure still haunts business, it is often discussed on the Internet, in printed editions, in TV programs. Here is one of the interesting posts on the subject:

What an individual entrepreneur needs to trade beer from January 1, 2019

The main changes to the law on the retail sale of beer for individual entrepreneurs relate to the recording in the EGAIS system of the fact of purchasing beer from a supplier. EGAIS has been introduced for individual entrepreneurs (beer in retail) since 2016, but only in terms of confirming the purchase of beer from a supplier. Individual entrepreneurs are not required to confirm the facts of the sale of beer.

Generally speaking, the introduction of EGAIS for individual entrepreneurs (beer retail) in rural areas really introduces many difficulties, if only because of the lack of the Internet in many settlements.

The new rules for the sale of beer in 2019 for individual entrepreneurs in rural areas do not make any exceptions - the fact of purchase in the EGAIS will have to be recorded regardless of the size of the rural settlement and the availability of the Internet. Otherwise, this will be a violation of Federal Law No. 182-FZ of June 29, 2015.

That is, in order to sell beer, an individual entrepreneur must purchase necessary equipment in order to transfer information about purchases to the Unified State Automated Information System, as well as be sure to keep a beer (any alcohol) sales register. Summing up, we note once again that the legislators introduced new things about the sale of beer in 2019 for individual entrepreneurs.

What to do first:

• Be sure to connect to the EGAIS system.
• Be sure to record beer purchases in EGAIS (sales are not yet required to be recorded).
• Be sure to keep a log of sales of beer products.
• Be sure to apply cash machine new sample (read more in the article).

Thus, reporting on beer for individual entrepreneurs in 2019 is the recording of purchases in the Unified State Automated Information System and the recording of sales in the sales register.

License for the sale of beer in 2019 for individual entrepreneurs

Consider whether a license is needed to trade beer for individual entrepreneurs in 2019. We have already discussed this issue earlier, in the article, but here we briefly summarize.

Based on Federal Law No. 171-FZ dated November 22, 1995, the retail sale of beer is not a licensed activity. Therefore, it is not required to obtain a beer license for individual entrepreneurs (as well as for LLCs).

People often ask what is better for beer retail trade - sole proprietorship or LLC? In our opinion, IP is preferable for trading beer, if only for the reason of lower fines for violations. Taking into account the information given in the article, it is not at all easy to trade beer without violations now.

• For officials - 100’000 −200’000 ₽

These requirements also apply to the sale of draft beer. Because beer, according to paragraph 23 of the Rules for the sale of certain types of goods. According to its characteristics, it requires packaging (packaging). In turn, the requirements for containers are prescribed in paragraph 2 of 171-FZ.

New EGAIS requirements for small settlements

All organizations selling alcoholic products must use equipment for accounting for goods and transfer information to EGAIS. From July 1, this requirement applies to retail stores beer in settlements where 3,000 people live and there is no way to connect to the Internet.

Recall that earlier such cities and towns were exempted from submitting data to the Unified State Automated Information System, now this requirement has become mandatory for everyone.

Important! From July 1, when selling beer, it is necessary to use modernized cash desks or online cash registers

For the absence of a special CCP, punishment is provided, according to the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, under article 14.5 “Sale of goods, performance of work or provision of services in the absence of established information or non-use in established federal laws cases of cash registers.
