Basic information
When registering with the Pension Fund, each payer receives his own unique number, which allows him to be identified in the system.
It is called the Pension Fund registration number. The Pension Fund number consists of 12 digits - three main parts:
- The first three digits indicate the region of the Russian Federation where the payer is registered.
- The next three are used to indicate the region's area code.
- The last six digits are the payer’s serial number assigned to him after registration.
Legal entities, individual entrepreneurs, farm owners and private detectives receive a number after registering their activities. It is assigned within 5 days after submitting data to the registering tax authority.
After assigning a registration number to a person, the pension fund is obliged to send by mail a notification about the completion of the registration procedure and the number itself. At the same time, it is also included in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities or Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs, depending on the form of doing business chosen by the citizen when registering.
What is a Pension Fund number and how can you find it out using your Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)
General information
It is impossible in our time to give the impression of a successful and competent person without knowledge of the meaning of economic and political concepts and abbreviations that have recently fallen upon us like an avalanche.
Let's try to deal with one of them.
The registration number of the Pension Fund of Russia is a number that is assigned upon registration by the Pension Fund of Russia to each payer of insurance contributions , namely, legal entities, individual entrepreneurs, private detectives, heads of farms.
As soon as the data on the new payer is received from the registering tax authority, the Branch, within 5 days, based on these data, assigns its Pension Fund number to the policyholder.
This number is again transmitted to the tax authority for inclusion in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRLE) or in the Unified State Register of Individual Entrepreneurs (USRIP).
Also, the Pension Fund is obliged, within 5 days after assigning a registration number, to send by mail to the policyholder a notification about the completed registration procedure and a notice that contains not only the registration number, but also all useful information about the procedure and timing of payments for compulsory pension and health insurance.
The PFR registration number is a combination of 12 digits.
Let's look at an example: 036-001-569873.
The first 3 digits indicate the region of the Russian Federation in which the payer is registered.
In our case, this is the Voronezh region.
The second group of numbers 001 is the area code of this region, i.e. Anninsky district of the Voronezh region.
And the third group of 6 digits is the serial number of registration of your organization, which was assigned to it by the district Office of the Pension Fund when registering.
The Pension Fund of the Russian Federation also registers all Russians, including children and adolescents, in the OPS system. Read how to get SNILS from the Pension Fund.

- The easiest and therefore most attractive is to call. Luck may not smile on you if you don’t know the phone number of the so-called "Hotline", which is required in every Pension Fund Office.

Features of finding out the SNILS number online
Many citizens still prefer not to go somewhere, but to try to find out all the information that interests them online. It is not surprising that more and more people are asking how to get information about the SNILS number using the Internet, rather than going to the Pension Fund in person.
This opportunity was recently opened by the State Services resource. But not everyone can use it. This service is provided only to persons who:

That is, if you don’t know the number, you won’t be able to register, which means you won’t recognize what you’re looking for. In other words, the circle is closed.
