By the way, now sole proprietors (IP) need to set up an online cash register and issue a receipt even when receiving payments from individuals through a bank (meaning really someone went all the way to something like “Sberbank” and paid something to your IP business account). If the receipt is not issued at the moment the funds are credited to the account, this is also a violation and subject to a fine.
It’s amusing that this can be done sneakily by sending just three rubles. Such a trick would be a nasty surprise for the IP owner. There’s no good way out of it, only the “hope for the best” option, since registering an online cash register at the moment money is received is already too late, and in 99% of cases it’s pointless anyway.
“The Ministry of Finance and the Federal Tax Service have decided: cash registers must be used in non-cash transactions with individuals. Previously, the positions of these agencies differed on this issue, but now everything is clear: an online cash register must be used even when a citizen makes a payment via bank transfer (including through a bank). Now any such payment (in your favor) requires issuing a cash register receipt. Failure to comply with this directive will result in fines.

Read Andrey Movchan, it’s very interestingly presented on currency control.
