Over 5,000 taxpayers subject to the professional income tax (NPID) were deregistered in October 2026 after failing to make timely payments for three consecutive months, according to sb.by.

Denis Tereshkov, Deputy Head of the Main Directorate of Individual Income Taxation and Head of the Directorate of Property and Business Activity Taxation of Individuals at the Ministry of Taxes and Levies, explained:

“From July 1, 2026, if a taxpayer has a three-month delay or fails to pay the accrued tax amounts within the specified deadlines, they will be forcibly deregistered by the tax authority. Re-registration is only possible after six full months. It is important for citizens who conduct activities subject to NPID payments to know that untimely payment may result in their inability to conduct activities for the next six months.”

It is worth recalling that, from July 1, 2026, the provisions of the Law “On Amendments to Laws on Tax Relations” came into force, introducing a minimum monthly mandatory tax amount of 45 rubles (for pension recipients — 18 rubles) for professional income tax payers.

The Ministry of Taxes and Levies advises both active taxpayers and those who conduct activities occasionally or not at all but are registered as NPID payers to take into account these new provisions of tax legislation.

If you have decided to deregister as an NPID payer, you must do so yourself through the “Profdochod” application by going to the “Settings” — “Account” — “Deregister” section.

If you have deleted the application on your device but have not deregistered, you need to download and install the application again, after which you should go through the deregistration procedure.

A forgotten login and password can be restored remotely through the “Profdochod” application or by contacting any tax inspection office. """
