The Russian recipients of services themselves, as the Ministry of Finance of Russia explains, will not be tax agents. However, Russian taxpayers can independently calculate, withhold and pay VAT to the Russian budget, and accept the paid amount of tax for deduction or include it in the cost (in expenses). In this case, the foreign organization is not required to pay VAT again.
