Abstract: It is the first time in Russian theory of taxation and taxation law that someone provides a detailed description of a modern theory of residence used in developed tax systems of Western countries. We do not have such a conception in Russian taxation law, this is quite a gap in tax regulation of economic activities and provides numerous opportunities to avoid paying taxes.

In this regard, the article is of great interest for all who are interested in modern problems of international taxation policy.

Abstract: The article is devoted to the questions about the blanket disposition of the Russian criminal law on responsibility for tax crime and main characteristics and features of such actions. The author also analyzes the origin and peculiarities of execution a tax responsibility. As a result of studying the current criminal and taxation laws and law enforcement practice the author concludes that there is a need to improve a number of legal acts regulating the process of paying taxes. In conclusion, the author says that it is possible to prevent the aforesaid tax crime through increased control and interaction between law-enforcement and tax authorities ensuring the discovery and elimination of criminogenic factors. Since the provision in Article 199 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation has the ‘blanket’ nature, the former can be used and improved taking into account the provisions of existing taxation legislation of Russia and law-enforcement practice in a proper sphere. It would allow to specify the features of a definition of such taxation crime.
