Use this page to prepare invoice details for a Russian customer, then send a clean document by email with the right buyer, seller, payment, and tax information. The practical goal is a document the recipient can review without asking for missing tax IDs, unclear line items, or a payment term that conflicts with the contract.
For VAT purposes, Russia uses the счет-фактура as the statutory VAT invoice. It supports the buyer's VAT deduction for VAT charged on goods, work, services, or property rights. A VAT invoice must be issued no later than five calendar days from shipment, completion of work or services, transfer of rights, or receipt of advance payment.
A Russian VAT invoice must identify the seller and buyer by name, address, and taxpayer identification number. It also needs shipper and consignee details and payment document details where applicable. Line items should show the description, unit of measure where possible, quantity, unit price excluding VAT, net value, excise if applicable, VAT rate, VAT amount, and total value including VAT.
Russia's current general VAT framework uses 22% as the standard rate, with 10% for listed food, children's, medical, and publishing goods, and 0% for exports and certain international transport. For foreign goods, add country of origin when the goods do not originate in Russia and the customs declaration registration number when they do not originate in the Eurasian Economic Union.
Email is a delivery channel, not a shortcut around the invoice's legal content. A PDF or document attached to an email should keep the счет-фактура details readable, preserve line-level VAT information, and match the contract's currency and payment terms. Russian monetary obligations are expressed in rubles by default, although a VAT invoice may use foreign currency when the transaction obligation is in foreign currency.
Electronic VAT invoices have their own rule set. They may be issued electronically by mutual consent when both parties have compatible systems. For goods subject to Russia's traceability system, VAT invoices generally must be electronic and exchanged through an approved electronic document operator. Emailing a file does not replace that operator workflow where the traceability rule applies.
A one-off invoice tool is enough when you need a single email-ready document, the buyer details are known, the VAT treatment is clear, and no tracked time or expenses need to feed future invoices. It is also enough for a draft you will check against a contract before sending.
A managed workflow becomes the better fit when billable hours, project costs, and invoice status need to stay connected. Everhour Reporting provides customizable reports with 45+ columns, grouping, filters, exports, and scheduled email delivery, so finance or project leads can review billable time, uninvoiced work, costs, and invoice-related data before the final invoice goes out.

An emailed invoice can be useful for delivery and review, but it does not change the underlying VAT invoice requirements. A Russian счет-фактура still needs the required buyer and seller identifiers, taxable line items, VAT rate, VAT amount, and totals. For traceable goods, the VAT invoice generally must move through an approved electronic document operator.
Use the VAT rate that applies to the supply. Russia's current general rates are 22% standard VAT, 10% for specified food, children's, medical, and publishing goods, and 0% for exports and certain international transport. Do not use a reduced or zero rate unless the supplied item or service qualifies under the relevant Russian VAT rule.
A Russian VAT invoice may state amounts in foreign currency when the transaction obligation is expressed in foreign currency. Rubles are the default for Russian monetary obligations. Keep the invoice consistent with the contract, and make the currency clear beside line totals, VAT amounts, and the amount due.
Late VAT invoice issuance creates avoidable rework. A VAT invoice must be issued no later than five calendar days from shipment, completion of work or services, transfer of rights, or receipt of advance payment. Email preparation should not push the document past that deadline, especially when the buyer needs the счет-фактура for VAT deduction support.
Organizations and individual entrepreneurs whose sales revenue did not exceed RUB 2 million over the previous three consecutive calendar months may notify the tax authority and receive a one-year exemption from VAT taxpayer obligations. That exemption is not the same as a 0% VAT rate, and invoice treatment should reflect the business's actual VAT status.
Everhour Reporting lets teams build reports with 45+ columns, filters, grouping, date ranges, and exports. A billing lead can review billable time, costs, project data, invoice status, and related details before preparing a Russia invoice, then schedule report delivery for recurring review cycles.
