So who owns the tractor?


How to get documents for a tractor if they don’t exist?

Before starting to register an agricultural machine, its owner will need to first prepare a list of certified documents. However, not every tractor driver has all the necessary papers - the unit could have been inherited without documents. In this case, you will need to obtain certificates.

To do this, the tractor driver needs:

  1. Contact Gostekhnadzor and promptly submit an application for the need to register your existing tractor. In this case, the agricultural machine must be in the private ownership of the applicant for more than 5 years. To prove this, you need to bring in two witnesses, but not relatives. The presence of the witnesses themselves is not necessary - it is enough that they confirm in writing the fact of ownership of the tractor. In addition, the submitted application must indicate the chassis and engine numbers of the agricultural machine;
  2. At Gostekhnadzor, the numbers are checked against a database. This is necessary to prove that the unit is not registered and is not on the wanted list. Next, the local authority inspector inspects the special equipment to ensure it is in good condition;
  3. The court decision becomes valid 10 days after its delivery. After this time, the owner of the utility tractor must once again contact Gostekhnadzor.

As soon as all documents for the tractor are completed, it can be legally operated on the roads, without the risk of receiving a fine or confiscation of the equipment by traffic police officers.

Transporting a tractor without documents

Agricultural machinery is represented by several main items, and very often tractors are required to work in the fields. Their overall dimensions and design make it possible to use the tractor on roads for driving to fields or other objects. Some tractors are issued without documents; even when purchasing equipment from a store, sellers may not immediately give documents to the owner. That is why many farmers and new equipment owners are wondering: how to transport a tractor without documents?

Transporting a tractor without documents

According to the legislation of the Russian Federation, equipment such as tractors is subject to mandatory registration with Gostekhnadzor. Equipment without documents can be considered stolen, and therefore at traffic police posts you will be stopped to check your papers. Otherwise, you will face the threat of putting the tractor in the impound area, a bunch of completed explanatory documents and a considerable fine. This is why many people wonder how to legally transport a tractor on public roads?

Tractors without documents may be due to the following reasons:

  • after the purchase, the seller has not yet issued a complete list of documents or the driver has not had time to register the equipment;
  • on many Soviet tractors, documents were lost due to the long life of the equipment;
  • the equipment was written off on the collective farm and does not have any papers;
  • the tractor is without documents and must be sent for spare parts, but it needs to be transported to the buyer;

It is possible to try to restore documents or register equipment with Gostekhnadzor. But keep in mind that this is also not an easy procedure and will take you a lot of time.

Required documents

The traffic rules stipulate that when driving a tractor you will need to provide the following documents:

  • PST - special passport for a tractor;
  • vehicle registration certificate issued by Gostekhnadzor;
  • driver's license of the appropriate category;
  • power of attorney for transporting a tractor if the equipment does not belong to the driver.

Transporting a tractor without documents

If the owner of the equipment is a legal entity, make sure that you have the following documents:

  • Packing list;
  • Waybill.

If a tractor is transported without documents, the traffic police officer has every right to seize the vehicle and send it to the impound area until the situation is clarified. In this case, a special detention protocol must be drawn up, and if you prove ownership and provide the necessary documents, the vehicle can be picked up.

How to restore documents for a tractor?

If the legal certificate of legal registration and other certificates for the tractor were accidentally lost, then the owner of the special equipment is obliged to obtain their duplicates. These issues are resolved exclusively by Gostekhnadzor. The owner of the agricultural machine must contact the nearest service authority with an application, as well as a receipt for the state duty paid.

After some time, employees of the local Gostekhnadzor are obliged to call the applicant and hand over duplicates of the lost documents. If necessary, service employees provide the person with copies of license plates confirming the legal registration of special equipment.

How to register an excavator, bulldozer and other road construction equipment

16.01.2018

Owners of self-propelled vehicles often face the question of how to properly carry out the registration process and whether it is needed at all. First, let's figure out what equipment is subject to registration in Russia.

This is what the law says: all types of loaders, excavators, tractors and trailers for them, wheeled road construction equipment, and equipment used for repair work on roads and in quarries are subject to registration. Vehicles with an internal combustion engine capacity of less than 50 cubic meters are not subject to registration. Cm.

The registration of equipment is carried out by the state organization Gostekhnadzor. Information about all its territorial branches and their opening hours, for example, in Moscow, can be found on the official website of the Moscow Mayor. Here, in the “Regulatory Acts” section, you can find a complete list of legislative rules that govern the registration of self-propelled vehicles.

By law, if you become the owner of a self-propelled vehicle, you must register it within 10 days. If the equipment was purchased for further sale, then it is not required to register it.

List of required documents:

Companies submit the following documents to the Gostekhnadzor department:

– Notarized charter – Extract from the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. – A copy of the certificate from the Tax Office. – Regulations on the OP or branch with the right to register equipment at the specified address. – Property documents (for example, an extract from the constituent document, permission to sell (transfer) equipment, PMS with the registered owner, purchase and sale agreement, etc.) – Payment order for payment of state duty (for individuals - a receipt) – Policy about compulsory motor liability insurance if the car speed is above 20 km/h. – Application – Applicant’s passport. – Power of attorney, if the owner does not submit the documents himself.

If the equipment was purchased abroad, you must provide a copy of the cargo customs declaration with the organization’s seal.

How to deregister equipment

The machine must be deregistered if the owner of the road construction equipment changes the legal address (place of residence), and the new address is located outside the territory covered by the activities of the Gostekhnadzor department where the machine is registered; the ownership of the vehicle has been terminated, the equipment has been written off as scrap or is exported outside the Russian Federation.

In these cases, the owner is obliged to provide the following documents to the state inspection of Gostekhnadzor:

– Car passport – Registration certificate – State license plate – Application – Power of attorney and passport – Order to remove a car for a legal entity.

Please note that in the case of Gostekhnadzor there is no re-registration. If you transfer the equipment and documents to the new owner without deregistering it, he simply will not be able to register it in his name. In addition, before removal, you must first check whether there are any encumbrances on the equipment and obtain supporting documents. The equipment must be shown to a government inspector before removal. If the machine is not located in the region where it is registered, you can contact the Gostekhnadzor branch at the location to conduct an inspection and draw up a report.

What are the consequences of not having documents for a tractor?

As the law states, documents for an agricultural machine must be completed within 10 days from the date of purchase. Otherwise, according to the Code of Administrative Violations, namely in Article 19.22 of this document, the real owner of the equipment faces a fine, the amount of which differs for an individual, official and legal entity. In addition, the amount of financial penalties may change depending on the revision of laws and inflation.

In addition, according to paragraph 13 of Article 27 of the same code, the inspector who stopped the tractor for inspection has the legal right to send the agricultural machine without documents to the impound lot. At the first stop, the owner of the unit is given a fine, and if the violation is repeated, the special vehicle is taken away by a tow truck.

What are the consequences of not having documents for a tractor?
Another factor is the legal basis for a traffic police inspector to confiscate a tractor if its driver does not have a tractor driver’s license. In addition to the confiscation of special equipment, its owner is issued a fine.

Step-by-step instructions for writing off a car from your balance sheet

The reasons for write-off may differ, but the procedure is similar in most cases and includes the following steps:

  • Drawing up and sending the appropriate notification to the traffic police;

PLEASE NOTE: you cannot write off a car from your balance sheet without deregistering it with the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate, otherwise you will remain responsible for paying transport tax.

The procedure should begin by sending a corresponding application to the inspectorate. Along with the paper, a package of documents is submitted that substantiates the reasons for deregistration and further write-off of the vehicle.

  • The expediency of write-off must be confirmed by a special commission;

It is legally determined that the write-off of a car, like any expensive fixed asset, is formalized by an Act. All members of the commission, headed by the Chairman, put their signatures on it. Responsible persons are appointed by the Order and are delegated the appropriate powers to make decisions on the advisability of the write-off procedure, the procedure for its implementation and the financial side of the issue.

  • The write-off of the machine must be reflected in the accounting records;

Vehicle accounting is carried out on synthetic account 01 “Fixed Assets”. The debit of the account records all machines in operation by the company. On a monthly basis, credit account 02 “Depreciation of fixed assets” accrues depreciation of the asset. As a result, the difference between account data 01 and 02 gives the book value of the fixed asset on the date of its write-off. This is the residual value, which will become an expense for the company when the vehicle is disposed of from the balance sheet. There may also be additional costs for paperwork, disposal, and more, depending on the reason for the write-off. All of them will be accumulated in 91.02 “Other expenses”.

IMPORTANT: although the vehicle has been removed from the balance sheet, the obligation to pay transport tax for the month of write-off inclusive remains.

The procedure for registering vehicle write-off transactions in accounting

The main document regulating the accounting of fixed assets is PBU 06/01. Paragraph 29 of the document indicates the main reasons for the write-off:

  • Complete physical depreciation of a long-term asset;
  • Severe damage that does not imply restoration as a result of emergency events;
  • Theft of company property.

To help the accountant, the Ministry of Finance of Russia developed Guidelines No. 91n on October 13, 2003. The document confirms the list of documents for writing off a car. It also states that the final decision on liquidation is made by the manager.

PLEASE NOTE: the responsibility to determine the impossibility/ineffectiveness of further use and/or restoration of an asset is taken by a permanent commission from among the company’s employees, appointed by the head of the company.

By the way, even if the car is subject to recycling, some components and parts can be sold. The task of the commission members is to compile a list of such spare parts and indicate the cost of their possible sale. The final document of the commission’s work will be act OS-4a for the write-off of vehicles. This is a unified Goskomstat form No. 71a, in which the following information is filled out identifying a specific unit of property:

  • Year of manufacture of the vehicle and date of registration as an OS;
  • The initial cost of the asset and the amount of accrued depreciation;
  • Current vehicle mileage and technical characteristics of components and parts.

Next comes a section revealing the reasons for disposal with justification for the inappropriateness of use.

PLEASE NOTE: if a car is written off as a result of an accident/theft/fire, a package of documents confirming these facts from the relevant authorities must be attached to the report in form OS-4a.

Entries in the company's accounting records when writing off a car from the balance sheet

The disposal of a long-term asset is recorded using the following entries:

Debit account 01.02 “Disposal of fixed assets” Credit 01.01 “Fixed assets” - Disposal at historical cost;

Debit of account 02 “Depreciation of fixed assets” Credit of account 01.02 – In the amount of previously accrued depreciation;

Debit 91.02 “Other expenses” Credit 01.02 - For the amount of the difference between the original cost and accrued depreciation;

Debit 91.02 Credit 60 – For the amount of expenses of a third-party company for recycling the car;

Debit account 10 “Spare parts” Credit account 91.01 “Other income” - In the amount of the price of possible use of components and materials;

Debit 99 Credit 91.9 - For the financial result from write-off.

Features of reflecting disposal in company tax accounting

The Tax Code of Russia requires that expenses for write-off/disposal/liquidation of vehicles be reflected as non-operating expenses. All company costs for this event can be taken into account at one time. This rule is enshrined in Art. 265 p. 1 p. 8 documents.

IMPORTANT: if the initial cost and depreciation in tax accounting differ, this data must be reflected in the write-off act.

Features of VAT recovery when writing off a car from the balance sheet

At the time a car is registered as a fixed asset, the taxpayer has the right to recover VAT on its acquisition. Typically, a company reduces the VAT payable by the amount of VAT refundable.

When incompletely depreciated property is removed from the balance sheet, the legislator prescribes the restoration of VAT on the residual value of the car. There is no such requirement when selling an asset. Only when written off as a result of liquidation.

Valuation of spare parts during the liquidation of machines

We recommend engaging an independent appraiser to calculate the estimated sale price of components and parts that may remain from a scrapped car. An accounting entry will be made for the valuation amount:

Debit account 10.05 “Spare parts” Credit account 91.01 “Other income”.

In this way, you will save yourself from disputes with the tax inspector when checking the correctness of income tax calculations.

We have described the general rules for registering a car write-off in the company. The package of documents will vary depending on the specific reason for disposal: theft, death in fire, physical wear and tear, unsuitability, gratuitous transfer.

The problem of car dumps in Russia ranks first among the most pressing environmental issues. Many car owners consider it possible to write off a car without scrapping it, despite the obvious disadvantages.

How to register a tractor?

Almost all countries of the post-Soviet space have the same tractor registration rules. To complete this procedure, you need to collect some documents. But before that, you need to clarify whether a compulsory motor liability insurance policy is required for the type of special equipment that a person owns. If this is necessary, then the policy will need to be issued using the services of any insurance company.


After receiving the entire package of documents, Gostekhnadzor sets a date for technical inspection in order to register the tractor. To pass it, the agricultural machine must be physically located in the area under the jurisdiction of this civil service department.

According to the law, Gostekhnadzor is obliged to register a tractor within no more than 11 working days.

When drawing up a contract yourself, you should remember both the mandatory details inherent in any contract and the specific conditions that relate specifically to the purchase and sale of a tractor.

Thus, the text of the contract must include the following mandatory paragraphs and clauses:

  1. name of the contract and details (passport details) of the participants;
  2. indication of the place and date of execution of the transaction;
  3. full characteristics of the tractor in accordance with the data in the technical passport, that is, its brand and engine power, year of manufacture and date of start of operation, numbers of all important components of the machine, weight and overall dimensions, as well as other essential data;
  4. selling price of the tractor, payment procedure indicating terms, possibility of installment payments;
  5. the procedure for paying the costs of completing the transaction and the share of each participant;
  6. the sequence of acceptance and transfer of the vehicle with all components from the seller to the buyer according to an act indicating the time frame for this procedure;
  7. sanctions for violation of the essential terms of the contract by the parties to the transaction;

If the equipment is registered (most often in some agricultural enterprise), then before you register the tractor in your name, you will have to go through an even longer and possibly longer journey (especially if the organization that owns the machine is located in another region of the country ). These paths are very troublesome and costly, both morally and materially. It's much easier to take the path of least resistance. Namely: buy a ready-made set of license plates and plates, as well as documents for the vehicle of the corresponding model, make and year of manufacture.

You can buy a tractor under the Sale and Purchase Agreement (Article 454 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation) only from its Owner (Article 209 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation) who is included in the title for the tractor.

In addition, both the owner (the car is registered in his name) and the owner - the person who uses this car with the permission of the owner - will be able to register the car. It will not be possible to register a car for minors.

How to deregister a tractor?

To deregister special equipment in any case, the owner of the unit will need to present the following documents:

  • an application filled out strictly according to the established form;
  • passport of the owner of the equipment.

In other cases, there is no need to surrender or change your numbers. If a special vehicle is transported to a permanent location in another region, then, along with the accompanying documents, the real owner of the tractor is issued state transit numbers that allow the agricultural machine to be transported to another part of the country.

Grounds for deregistration of a public utility company

note

From September 1, 2020, gas distribution networks and gas consumption networks operating under pressure up to 0.005 MPa are not classified as hazardous production facilities. They need to be deregistered

The exclusion of a hazardous production facility from the state register of hazardous production facilities is regulated by paragraph 7 of the Rules for registering facilities in the state register of hazardous production facilities, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of November 24, 1998 No. 1371 (hereinafter referred to as the Rules).

There are several reasons for deregistration of a public utility company:

1. Liquidation of the object. This means complete liquidation and decommissioning.

2. Conservation of the object for a period of more than 12 months. For example, if you need to mothball a dangerous facility for 7 months and then use it again, then there is no need to deregister it.

3. Absence of danger signs at the site. That is, if the object is no longer dangerous.

4. Selling or renting out the property. This is a change of owner or copyright holder. When the owner of an already registered public utility changes, first the new owner registers the object, and then the previous owner removes it from the register. After all, the real danger of an object remains regardless of its registration.

5. The criteria by which an object can be classified as a hazardous production facility, or the requirements for identifying a hazardous production facility, have changed. If, for example, when legislation changes, the object no longer belongs to a hazardous production facility.

How to transfer a tractor to another owner?

To properly re-register a tractor, you can use two legal methods. The first is obtaining a legally drawn up and notarized certificate of purchase and sale of special equipment.

In this case, for valid re-registration of agricultural machinery, you must present:

  • completed certificate-invoice;
  • an act confirming the completed technical inspection of the equipment;
  • technical passport of the unit.

The second method of legally re-registering an agricultural machine can be used in cases where both the seller and the buyer are legal entities. To do this, the relevant documentary columns of the purchase and sale act must contain the seals of the participating enterprises and the valid signatures of their legal representatives.
