---

On 30 October, the results of the Moscow Directorate of the Federal Tax Service for the first nine months of 2025 were discussed at the National Centre RUSSIA. An extended meeting of the Collegium of the Federal Tax Service Directorate for Moscow was held under the chairmanship of its Head, Marina Tretyakova. The meeting was attended by the Mayor of Moscow, Sergei Sobyanin, Head of the Federal Tax Service of Russia, Daniil Yegorov, deputy heads and department chiefs of the Directorate, as well as heads of subordinate tax inspectorates across Moscow.

Sergei Sobyanin congratulated employees of the Moscow Directorate on the 35th anniversary of the establishment of the Russian tax authorities and thanked them for creating a service of world-class quality and performance. 

"Many of the technologies developed and implemented by Russia’s tax authorities are unparalleled in the tax services of other countries," emphasised the Mayor of Moscow.

On the eve of the 35th anniversary of the Federal Tax Service, Daniil Yegorov congratulated his Moscow colleagues and addressed the young specialists: "You have joined not just an interesting profession. Its true interest lies in the complexity and non-triviality of the challenges we face — including the task of ensuring fairness in taxation. We must find a smart and elegant way to achieve a balanced and well-structured tax system."

Marina Tretyakova delivered a report titled "Results of the Work of the Federal Tax Service Directorate for Moscow and Its Subordinate Inspectorates for the First Nine Months of 2025 and Key Objectives for the Remainder of the Year". 

– Total revenue administered by the Moscow Directorate and transferred to the Russian budget system for the first nine months of 2025 reached 8.2 trillion roubles, showing growth of nearly 121%.

– Contributions to state extra-budgetary funds amounted to 2.6 trillion roubles, or 24.5% of all-Russian collections, with a growth rate of 117%, outpacing the wage dynamics by nearly 5 percentage points.

– Transfers to the federal budget reached 2.7 trillion roubles, up 37%, including a 28% rise in VAT revenues, which accounted for 27% of national VAT receipts.

– Transfers to the Moscow city budget grew by 10% to 3.4 trillion roubles.

– Against the background of rising wages, personal income tax receipts to the city budget grew by 112.6%. 

The positive dynamics were also driven by efforts to legalise the tax base. Over the first nine months of 2025, citizens voluntarily submitted nearly 960,000 tax declarations. An additional 26,000 citizens were brought into the declaration process for income from property transactions, resulting in over 2 billion roubles in additional charges, including more than 300 million roubles from stopping illegal rentals of residential and other property. 

This year, measures were initiated concerning employable "non-working" residents of Moscow who do not declare their income for tax purposes.

"Given the relevance and social importance of the issue of illegal employment, the risks it poses to the labour market and potential losses to the budget, monitoring of activities related to ‘non-working citizens’ will remain a constant focus," emphasised Marina Tretyakova. 

In light of the upcoming changes in tax legislation, Daniil Yegorov noted that the Service must maintain its focus on transparency and client-centredness, remaining a system-based organisation that efficiently manages both risk assessment and taxpayer services. The agency, he added, will continue to take a flexible approach in addressing systemic challenges and adapting to changing realities.

Within its cooperation with the Moscow Directorate of the Federal Tax Service, the Moscow Government provides consistent support in equipping tax authorities with modern information systems, office equipment and other necessary resources. 

In conclusion, Sergei Sobyanin presented Moscow city awards to distinguished employees of the Federal Tax Service Directorate for Moscow.

Summarising the Directorate’s objectives for 2025, Marina Tretyakova stressed that the main task of the tax authorities remains the stable provision of budget revenues at all levels in line with the established economic parameters and the continued improvement of tax administration efficiency across all areas of activity.
