Mikhail Mishustin's video address to employees and veterans of the Federal Tax Service.

Good afternoon, dear colleagues, dear friends!

Congratulations on your professional holiday – Tax Authority Worker's Day – and on your anniversary – 35 years of service.

The implementation of large-scale programs in medicine, science, education, and culture largely depends on the results of your work. Social support for people, improvement of the business climate, and, of course, the achievement of economic sovereignty and the national development goals set for us by the President.

Thanks to the service's work, over 16.5 trillion rubles have already been received into the budget in the first eight months of this year.

Over three and a half decades, the country's tax service has come a long way and accumulated unique experience.

And now you're actively implementing innovative software products, best tools, and best practices. This allows you to maintain a unified and transparent record of all taxpayers in the country, ensure timely monitoring of incoming funds, significantly reduce paperwork and the number of audits, and reduce the overall administrative burden on businesses. This ensures that businesses don't waste time on bureaucratic procedures, and that people can easily and conveniently interact with the government and the service—making payments, receiving simplified deductions, and receiving government services. Incidentally, this year, more than 1.5 million people have already taken advantage of these deductions. This speaks volumes about the high level of service your service is receiving.

It is important to pay special attention to the quality of services provided.

The President noted that, in today's environment, improving the efficiency of all areas of labor productivity is inextricably linked to digitalization. The creation of such solutions allows, among other things, for the optimization of interactions between citizens, businesses, and the government. This opens up enormous opportunities for planning and development in various industries, regions, and cities.

To this end, the government has launched a new national project, "Data Economy." It aims, among other things, to implement modern technologies for the transition to electronic document management, ensuring proactive delivery of government services with the fastest possible results. It also aims to align the work of all levels of government around the interests of every citizen of our country.

Today, the Federal Tax Service offers over 70 online services. Over 64 million people have already used their personal accounts to access them.

Dear friends!

It's important to continually improve, continually increase the transparency of the tax system, and develop new formats for providing services to citizens and businesses. This, I emphasize again, will contribute to achieving national goals and strengthening our country's economy.

I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank the staff and veterans of the service for their dedicated approach to their work and the professional performance of their duties. I wish you, your family, and loved ones good health, success, and prosperity.
