A crop seller is rarely in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities: they are the head of a peasant farm, the owner of a household plot, a self-employed person or a cooperative. We check them by INN and databases before paying for a batch, and a farmer to whom you sell equipment or seed on deferral — before shipment. The seller's passport is recognised from a photo, without retyping.

There is no separate law on checking a crop seller. But the buyer of grain, milk and livestock is responsible for the VAT deduction along their chain, a batch of grain moves only with an electronic accompanying document, and a subsidy recipient must meet budget requirements.
NeuroVision checks the people and companies in this chain against registers before payment. Documents for the batch, grain accounting and the purchase decision remain with you.

Each has its own point of risk: an advance against the harvest, acceptance of a batch, payment for milk, admitting a seller to a marketplace, shipping equipment on credit. The set of checks is chosen for it — pay only for what you need.
The seller's form determines where to look for them and what data is needed. A peasant farm head is a sole proprietor with a personal INN, a household plot is not registered at all, a cooperative and an agricultural enterprise are in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. The check goes by what the seller has.
The farm is registered in the Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs, and its head is a sole proprietor. The head's personal INN is the key to all checks: bankruptcy, arbitration cases, tax debt, account blocks. Namesakes do not get into the result.
Most often enabled:
An LLC, a joint-stock company, a production cooperative or a peasant farm with legal-entity status — in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities. The director and chairman are checked by the INN from the register: nominee director, bankruptcy, debts, lists.
Most often enabled:
A household plot is not an entrepreneur and is not listed in registers. The person is checked: the passport is recognised from a photo, validity — against the Ministry of Internal Affairs database, enforcement proceedings and wanted lists — by full name and date of birth.
Most often enabled:
A professional income tax payer sells their own produce and issues a receipt. The status is checked by INN on the payout date — they may have deregistered after the contract.
Most often enabled:
A marketing or processing cooperative unites farmers and household plots. The chairman and board members are checked — against the same registers as a company director. A credit cooperative is a different scenario.
Most often enabled:
A company or sole proprietor between the farmer and you. Recent registration, a nominee director and blocked accounts are visible before the contract, and a foreign founder — in sanctions lists.
Most often enabled:
The check is built in between the farmer's application and payment for the batch: the seller's INN and passport, checks for their form, a decision by your rules. Clean sellers go on, disputed ones — to the security service.
The INN of a peasant farm head, intermediary or cooperative comes from the supplier record in your system or is entered in the web account. The farmer's passport is recognised from a photo — the fields go into the record without retyping, and anti-fraud flags traces of editing the image.
For a peasant farm head — bankruptcy, arbitration, tax debts and blocks by personal INN; for a household plot and a self-employed person — professional income tax status, enforcement proceedings and wanted lists; for an intermediary's director — nominee status and lists.
For each check — "passed", "failed" or "not enough data", the source and the records found. The result is collected by the run identifier and goes into the seller's record; the decision — pay, request documents or refuse — is yours.
In agribusiness a VAT gap arises more often than in other industries: the produce is grown by those who do not pay VAT, while the buyer wants a deduction. How the tax authority assesses the choice of a counterparty in general — on the page for procurement. Here — what is typical of grain, milk and livestock.
A farmer on the Unified Agricultural Tax with an exemption, a peasant farm head without VAT or a household plot sell without an invoice with tax. If the batch reaches you through a company that charges 10% and does not pay it to the budget, the question about the deduction is put to the buyer.
A company with no warehouses, equipment or people "sells" hundreds of tonnes of grain in a season, the director is listed in dozens of firms, accounts are blocked. These are the signs by which the tax authority looks for a "technical" link; nominee status and blocks are visible by INN before the contract.
Grain moves with an electronic accompanying document that names the batch owner. If the SDIZ shows one owner and the contract another, that is a question about the chain. Matching documents is your job; the people behind each link are ours.
A result with a date and source shows that the seller was checked before the deal. It does not confirm that the delivery was real and does not guarantee a deduction: that is done by the contract, the SDIZ, transport documents and acceptance reports.
No registration. A personal household plot is not a business: selling surplus does not require sole-proprietor status.
No personal income tax — under conditions. Income from selling one's own produce is exempt if the plot is no more than 0.5 ha (up to 2.5 ha under regional law), there are no hired workers and there is a document on running the plot.
What we check. A passport with a photo, its validity, enforcement proceedings — before payout.
Own produce — yes, resale — no. A professional income tax payer may sell what they grew themselves, but not what they bought in.
A receipt is mandatory. Without a receipt the buyer has nothing to confirm the expense.
What we check. Status by INN on the date of each payout: the person may have deregistered or lost the right to the regime.
Regular sales without a status. A person sells milk or grain in farm volumes but is neither a sole proprietor nor self-employed. That is their tax risk — but also a signal to the buyer.
What we check. Whether they have sole-proprietor or self-employed status, enforcement proceedings, bankruptcy — and you decide how to formalise the purchase.
A household plot owner may become self-employed if they sell more than the exemption allows. How platforms work with professional income tax payers — in the solutions for freelancers and the self-employed.
The seller grew nothing
A sole proprietor registered in spring, has no equipment or land, and by autumn sells thousands of tonnes. Nominee status, links and account blocks are visible by INN; the batch owner in the SDIZ — by your matching.
The money is gone, there is no crop
A peasant farm head takes an advance against the future harvest and already has a bankruptcy case or enforcement proceedings. Bankruptcy and arbitration by personal INN are visible before the transfer.
A payout to the wrong person
Someone comes to the acceptance point for the money with someone else's passport or one that has been replaced. The passport is recognised from a photo, validity is checked against the Ministry of Internal Affairs database, and editing of the image is visible to anti-fraud.
A regime that cannot exist
A seller with self-employed status brings grain bought from neighbours. The status by INN confirms only registration — match the volumes and the origin of the batch against the SDIZ and their farm.
Members do not supply produce
A marketing cooperative where the chairman is listed as the head of dozens of organisations and the produce comes from resellers. Signs of a nominee director are visible by their INN.
INN + SDIZ
Seller and batch matched
A dealer ships in spring, and the farmer pays after the harvest. A buyer on deferral is the same kind of counterparty as a supplier: they are checked before shipment and before a new delivery on credit.
Bankruptcy, arbitration cases, tax debt and account blocks — by the head's INN, without namesakes. A farmer with blocked accounts in spring will not pay in autumn either.
Enforcement proceedings — by full name and date of birth from the passport. Pledges of the peasant farm head's movable property show whether their equipment is already pledged.
If the buyer is a company, its director and founders are checked: nominee director, bankruptcy, debts, lists and sanctions.
The buyer's status changes over a season. A repeat request by INN before the next delivery on credit returns up-to-date results; compare them with the previous response.
Each check is enabled separately, payment is for completed ones. A check skipped for lack of data is not charged. Input data and response fields are in the API check catalogue.

Bankruptcy, arbitration, tax debts, blocks, nominee status — for a peasant farm head, director and chairman; self-employed status and debts — for an individual seller.

International screening of an export buyer — 36 ₽. A check for which there was not enough data is not charged. For seasonal volumes the price is calculated individually.

Payment for completed checks, technical support — through a ticket system.
In the purchasing season there are hundreds of sellers, and half of them are individuals and sole proprietors. One service is needed for a farmer, a household plot, a cooperative and an intermediary.
A peasant farm head by personal INN, a self-employed person by status, a household plot by passport, an intermediary's director by registers — one response format with the source of each record.
There is no need to assemble a solution from several vendors and reconcile their responses.
The platform is in the register of Russian software No. 19972.
Terms found in a purchase contract, in batch documents and in correspondence with accounting.
Checking companies, sole proprietors and the people behind them — in our blog.
First determine the seller's form. A peasant farm head and a sole proprietor are checked by personal INN: bankruptcy, arbitration cases, tax debt, account blocks. A company and a cooperative — by the people behind them. A household plot owner and a self-employed person — by passport and professional income tax status. The batch is matched by the SDIZ in FGIS Zerno.
If the farm operates without a legal entity, its INN is the personal INN of the head, registered as a sole proprietor. All the individual's checks run on it: bankruptcy, arbitration, tax debts, account blocks, self-employed status. Namesakes do not get into the result.
Yes. A personal household plot is not entrepreneurship, and selling surplus does not require registration. The owner's income is exempt from personal income tax if the plot is no more than 0.5 ha (up to 2.5 ha under regional law), there are no hired workers and there is a document on running the plot.
A professional income tax payer may sell their own produce and must issue a receipt. If the exemption conditions for the plot are not met, registering as self-employed is one option for the seller. Reselling other people's produce under professional income tax is not allowed.
Yes, if you pay regularly. A person may deregister or lose the right to the regime, and a receipt from them after that will not confirm your expense. A status check by INN costs 5 ₽ and is done before the payout.
For food products on the Government's list, including milk and livestock and poultry in live weight — 10%. A seller on the Unified Agricultural Tax with an exemption, a peasant farm head without VAT and a household plot do not charge the tax. Check the exact product code against the list.
No. We are not connected to FGIS Zerno and do not check batches, SDIZ and volumes. The service checks the people and companies behind the seller against registers, while your purchaser matches the batch owner in the SDIZ with the seller under the contract.
There is no guarantee. A result with a date and source shows that the seller was checked before the deal. The reality of the delivery is confirmed by the contract, the SDIZ, transport documents and acceptance reports. How the tax authority assesses the choice of a counterparty — on the page for procurement.
By the INN of the peasant farm head — bankruptcy, arbitration, tax debts and account blocks, by passport — enforcement proceedings and pledges of movable property. Before each new shipment on credit — a repeat request. The service does not assess credit rating or yield.
A marketing or processing cooperative is checked by its people: the chairman and board members — nominee director, bankruptcy, debts, lists and sanctions. If the cooperative is a credit one, it is a subject of Federal Law No. 115-FZ — this is a separate scenario for checking members.
Directors, owners and signatories — against the OFAC, EU, UK and UN sanctions lists by Latin spelling and in international PEP screening for 36 ₽. Whether the deal may go ahead is decided by your lawyer. Currency control is carried out by the bank.
A check against one register — 5 ₽, a passport with an anti-fraud check — from 16 ₽, international screening — 36 ₽, a company check by INN — on request. No subscription fee. Test access — 1 month.
Tell us whom you buy from — farmers, household plots, cooperatives or resellers — how many sellers you have in a season and whether you sell to farmers on deferral. We will assemble a set of checks for each seller form and give you test access.
