Invasia-2012

Tariffs, excise taxes, fines

Invasia-2012. I always want to look forward and understand what awaits us in the coming year. In some cases, already adopted laws, regulations and decisions allow this to be done quite accurately. The New Times refreted memory
Typically, the troubles prepared for us ahead of us are dumped on the New Year: from January 1, tariffs, excise taxes and taxes are growing, benefits are canceled and new fines are introduced ... But the coming year is special: it is necessary to determine the new owner of the Kremlin, and the political situation is alarming. Therefore, unpopular decisions will not go anywhere, but the deadline for their entry into force is transferred mainly on “after the elections”, so as not to angry the electorate.

Half -month tariff in 2012, gas and electricity tariffs will not increase from January 1, but from July 1: for gas - no more than on

15% , on e

Lectroenergy and warmth - on

6% . Utilities that directly depend on the level of these tariffs will rise in price on average

12% in two tricks: in summer and autumn. Muscovites are least lucky: Mayor Sergei Sobyanin has already signed a decision on the growth of utility tariffs in the second half of the year by 25%.

Private inspection from January 1, along with the current instrumental control points (IR), will be able to deal with private traders accredited by car insurers. But at the IR point, and the private trader will have to pay. The Federal Tariff Service (FST) approved the methodology and formula for calculating the maximum amount of fees for the inspection. On average in Russia, the formula will lead to

958 rubles (with VAT - about

1130 rubles ). In Moscow and St. Petersburg, experts believe, you will have to pay more:

1500–2000 rubles. From July 1, new fines are introduced for violations of some traffic rules from July 1, and in Moscow and St. Petersburg their size will be 2-3 times larger than in other Russian regions. For violation of the rules of movement in residential areas -

3000 rubles (in Russia -

1500 rubles ), for parking at a public transport stop or 15 m from it -

1000 ), for parking or stopping at a pedestrian crossing and 5 m from it and for parking or stopping where it prohibits the sign, -

, for driving with tinted glass in violation of the requirements of the technical regulations (windshield light transmission of at least 75%, front side glasses - at least 70%) from July 1, traffic police will rent numbers, issuing the protocol with the time and date of delivery. With the protocol, but without numbers you can ride for a day: this period is given to correct the violation.

The delayed counter Law “On Energy Saving, adopted in 2009, provided that by January 1, 2012, all citizens should at their own expense equip the apartments and houses with water, gas and electricity meters - individual and collective. But by the middle of this year it became clear that due to the high cost of this enterprise, the country did not have time. Then they adopted a new law, which transfers the timing of installation of metering devices for owners of apartments and houses: by water - until July 1, 2012, for gas - even until 2015. Experts do not exclude that the deadlines will have to be transferred again: hardly the population is sharply rich, and the cost of the installation will decrease.

Smoking - scary tobacco will become more expensive because excise taxes will grow. In 2012, they will be raised in two doses: from January 1 and from July 1. On cigarettes and cigarettes - almost on

30% : from the current

280 rubles to

390 rubles for 1000 pieces. Retail prices, respectively, will also increase: experts expect that the January increase in excise taxes will affect the summer.

Since July 1, 2012, 12 new frightening color pictures will appear on the packs of cigarettes and cigarettes - photographs of the semi -layered light smoker, a struck by a gangren foot without a finger, blackened teeth. The World Health Organization believes that frightening pictures contribute to a reduction in the number of smokers to 20%.
