Veterans of military operations in Chechnya include citizens who served in the republic during periods of conflict. The military registration and enlistment office must confirm this status, and he also issues a veteran certificate confirming the right to the benefits and subsidies provided for this category and their family members.
The certificate is issued to those who participated in military operations on the border with Chechnya, conscripts and contract soldiers who served in the Chechen Republic. It is also received by military personnel who fell into units during the deployment of hostilities, and were seconded in the period 1994-1996. to the hot spot.
The law "On Veterans" contains approved rights and benefits for those who fought in Chechnya. For instance:

- unlimited transport tickets.
The state will also reimburse the burial expenses of the veteran and will cover the costs of making the tombstone.
Tax benefits
What are the benefits to the participants of hostilities in Chechnya on taxes? Apartment, garage or house, it doesn’t matter. Those who served in Chechnya during the hostilities do not pay the property tax of their choice. However, in some areas, veterans are completely exempt from paying property tax.
To use the right of income tax benefits, it is enough to write a statement to the accounting department at work, back it up with a copy of the veteran’s certificate.
The main type of direct payment is returned with a tax deduction. If a purchase of real estate is made, the combat participant needs to apply to his tax office in order for the income tax to be refunded.
Five hundred rubles per month in the form of a tax deduction are determined by personal income tax exemption. Fighters who became disabled during the fighting during the conflict in Chechnya have the right to take advantage of a deduction of 3,000 rubles for each month.
Transport tax benefits
Are there any benefits to the participants in the hostilities in Chechnya on the transport tax? This type of taxation is determined for the regional budget, its norm for veterans is approved by legislative acts: regional or regional. The preferential transport tax for fighters of "hot" points is fixed in 33 regions. In 7 regions, not a penny is levied on the type of tax for those who fought in Chechnya. These are Tula, Sakhalin, Murmansk, Lipets, Kabardino-Balkaria, Adygea, and also Moscow. In these entities, war veterans are exempted from payment without taking into account the power of the car. But in 14 areas, this parameter matters.
For example, fighters registered in the Leningrad Region are exempt from tax if they own a domestic car with a capacity of no more than 80 horsepower. For Voronezh beneficiaries, payment is excluded if the car is up to 120 horsepower.
Beyond taxation, cars with a limit of up to 100 horsepower, for example, in the Volgograd and Samara regions. The same benefit in the regions of North Ossetia, in the Krasnoyarsk and Khabarovsk Territories. In the Republic of Bashkortostan, Novosibirsk and other regions, mandatory payment is not levied on veterans who own a car no more than 150 horsepower.
Some entities introduced lower tax rates. For example, in the Jewish Autonomous Okrug, Udmurtia, Ivanovo Oblast, Kirov, Chechnya, Orenburg and Kurgan. Reducing rates from 30 to 70% mainly depends on the power of the machine. Although in the Chechen Republic and the Orenburg region the tax discount applies to any cars.
When there are no tax benefits
Compulsory transport payments are prescribed in regional legislative acts, and their benefits are also fixed by these norms. There are no federal discounts in this direction due to the fact that this type of tax goes to the regional budget.
The discount is valid for only one vehicle owned by the fighter. For other vehicles - the general order.
It is necessary to consider the volume of the engine in those regions where the tax discount depends on the power of the car. Thus, it is useless to demand a benefit if the car is more powerful than 150 horsepower, and the rate reduction is determined only for cars with a volume of no more than 80.
To claim the right to reduce the payment of transport, you will need to present a certificate.
Land benefits

But it is important to comply with the condition: compliance with the real use of land and specified in the statement. That is, if the land is allocated for the construction of a house, you cannot build a restaurant. If for gardening, you can not use the land for construction. Otherwise, the municipal authority may select the provided plot.
Of course, the right to land for fighters is predominantly, but granted according to the order of priority. To get into it, you need to contact the municipal administration.
To take advantage of the tax benefit, it will be necessary to survey the site, register, prepare and send to the Office of the Registration Center a cadastral extract and a copy of the cadastral plan of the territory.
As a rule, a land plot is first determined for a long-term lease, then the right to redeem it at a reduced cost is granted.
In order to achieve an early decision on the transfer of the site, it is advised to indicate data on the cramped conditions in which the fighter lives with his family. The norm per person is eighteen square meters.
