Do I need an Online Checkout for an online store with customers from the USA?

Question

Online shopping

There are clients in the USA, I receive dollars for a corporate account in PayPal / or through the 2checkout payment gateway.
The answer of PayPal itself is that a cash register is not needed.
The tax authorities themselves do not know what PayPal is.
If you buy a cash register and integrate it with PayPal, then you get as many as 6 layers between me and the buyer, and it’s easier to do this in the USA. There I would pay 4-5% taxes and that's it.

Answer 1

if you have an individual entrepreneur or LLC in the Russian Federation, you need a cash desk if you sell to individuals, regardless of the method of payment and their location, even if they paid to your current account.
If you are paid only by organizations by bank transfer to your current account, a cash desk is not needed.
There are exceptions when your agent / reseller accepts payments for you (for example, under an agency agreement with you), and then transfers the money to your current account - then you do not need a cash desk. The obligation to break through the check becomes the responsibility of the agent, if the agent is registered outside the jurisdiction of Russia, then Russian laws do not apply to him.
What question did you ask them?
If it’s a little easier for you to buy a regular cash desk (about 18,000 rubles including FN and OFD for 3 years) and punch checks manually (if you paid at night / after hours, you can do it the next business day), and the check will be sent to the buyer’s email / phone using OFD.
To pay taxes in the US, you need to be a tax resident there. To be a resident there, you must either stay there for more than 6 months a year or open a company there.
If you open a foreign company while remaining a tax resident of the Russian Federation: you fall under the CFC law - you need to notify the tax office about this and report on transactions annually.
And When you transfer income to yourself as an employee of your company or dividends, while still a tax resident of the Russian Federation, you will need to pay 13% personal income tax in the Russian Federation. You can try to turn it into an individual entrepreneur and pay 6% of the simplified tax system.
