Abstract. Introduction. The article is devoted to the study of the organization of the collection of monetary income for the sovereign treasury in Great Perm in 1605–1608. The identified regional features of Eastern Pomorye, where state peasants predominated, are of interest, as well as an idea of the office management system, types of fees and duties, legislative regulation of taxation in the Perm Region, and the problems faced by local managers and in Moscow’s administrative institutions. Methods and materials. The source base consists of legislative documents and statutory material extracted mainly from the archive of the St. Petersburg Institute of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Preliminary research work was carried out on the reconstruction of the archive of the order hut of Great Perm by the method of mutual correspondence of documents. Analysis. Changes in the taxation system of Great Perm have been clarified, which occurred at the end of the 16th century and beginning of the 17th century. The information of the decree letters from the Novgorod quarter to Great Perm, the memoirs from Cherdyn to the county towns of Sol Kamskaya and Kaigorodok, and the correspondence of the zemstvo elders from Cherdyn to the ordered people is compared. Results. It has been established that before September 1, 1605, the monetary collections of Great Perm were received by the Nizhny Novgorod Quarter Order; after its abolition, by the Novgorod chet. At the beginning of the 17th century, certain legal norms of the Great Perm Charter of 1553 continued to apply, in particular, on customs duties, from February 1606. The rules for the payment of court fees according to the all-Russian judicial code were introduced, which indicates the ongoing process of centralization of the state. Problems with arrears constantly arose in Great Perm in 1603–1608. Audits in Moscow and investigative measures on the ground indicate strict control in the central departments over the revenues of the sovereign treasury.

Key words: history of Russia, Great Perm, zemstvo self-government, central government, taxation, beginning of the 17th century, Time of Troubles.
