Accounting Services in Russia | Accountant & Co.
Bookkeeping, monthly close, tax-reporting coordination and management reporting in Russia. Published accounting plans from $100/month, with custom scopes for foreign-owned and complex businesses.
Accountant & Co. provides recurring accounting and reporting support for businesses operating in Russia. The service is designed to create a reliable monthly close, not simply to submit forms: source documents, ledger entries, reconciliations, tax-reporting data and management reports should connect back to the same underlying transactions.
What the accounting service can include
Depending on the agreed scope:
- bookkeeping and primary-document processing;
- bank, supplier, customer and intercompany reconciliations;
- monthly and period-end close;
- tax-register and tax-filing coordination;
- management reporting for owners or headquarters;
- schedules supporting material balance-sheet and P&L positions;
- accounting-policy and issue tracking;
- preparation of records for financial review, due diligence or external audit;
- handover and cleanup when changing accounting providers.

These are starting levels. Final pricing depends on transaction volume, number of bank accounts and entities, tax regime, payroll and fixed-asset complexity, intercompany activity, document quality, reporting deadlines and whether the company also needs IFRS/group reporting.
Who typically needs this service
Russian operating companies
A company that does not want a full internal accounting team can outsource the recurring ledger, close and reporting process while keeping approvals and financial control with management.
Foreign-owned Russian companies
A foreign parent often needs more than local bookkeeping. The Russian entity may need a group reporting pack, intercompany reconciliation, management reporting in English and a clear bridge between local accounting and headquarters numbers. See Accounting for Foreign Companies in Russia.
Companies changing accounting providers
Before regular work starts, opening balances, tax registers, unreconciled accounts and missing source documents may need to be reviewed. Cleanup is separated from normal monthly accounting so historic issues remain visible and measurable.
What a normal month should produce
A recurring close can be organized around the following sequence:
- collect and validate source documents for the period;
- post or review transactions in the accounting system;
- reconcile cash, bank, receivables, payables and intercompany balances;
- identify missing documents and unusual or unsupported entries;
- prepare tax and accounting registers required by the agreed scope;
- close the reporting period and prepare management/headquarters reports;
- maintain an issues log for unresolved material items;
- archive the supporting schedules and evidence used for the close.
This makes the reporting process repeatable and easier to review later.
Management and headquarters reporting
Where management or an overseas parent requires a separate reporting package, the package can include balance sheet, profit and loss, cash information, working-capital schedules, intercompany balances and explanations of material changes. The exact format is agreed during onboarding rather than reconstructed ad hoc every month.
If the group reports under IFRS while the Russian entity keeps local records, see RAS and IFRS Parallel Reporting and IFRS Reporting Services.
Tax and regulatory source discipline
Russian accounting and tax obligations change over time and depend on the actual entity and transactions. For current tax-registration and filing rules, the authoritative public source is the Federal Tax Service of Russia (FNS). The FNS also publishes dedicated information for foreign organisations operating in Russia: FNS — foreign organisations.
Our service pages describe a workflow and commercial scope. They do not replace a tax or legal conclusion for a specific transaction.
What we need to quote a company accurately
For a practical scope estimate, provide:
- legal form and ownership structure;
- tax regime;
- monthly transaction/document volume;
- number of bank accounts and currencies;
- employee/payroll headcount if payroll is in scope;
- accounting software;
- whether prior periods are reconciled;
- whether group/IFRS reporting is required;
- current reporting deadlines.
