Introduction of incentives for IT companies. Three years without income tax, without inspections. Loans for the implementation of existing projects. Mortgages for employees at a reduced rate, deferment from military service.
For companies in the IT industry, it is planned to introduce preferences, the main of which will affect taxation. But it is planned to establish for them a number of benefits that will affect the employees of these companies. The plans of the country's leadership were first announced by Mikhail Mishustin, then the corresponding presidential decree was signed.
What Mishustin promised the IT industry in his speech:
- three years without income tax;
- three years without inspection;
- loans for the implementation of existing projects and new beginnings;
- employees - mortgages at a reduced rate;
- deferment from military service.
Thus, a whole range of state support measures is envisaged. The Prime Minister stressed that even in the face of the imposition of sanctions, it is important to prevent a slowdown in the growth rate in the Russian information technology sector.
The introduction of benefits was a response to the intention of IT companies to withdraw their business from Russia. In recent days, the number of requests to IT lawyers on how to continue doing business in Russia in the changed political situation has increased. Sanctions prevent the purchase of the necessary equipment abroad, there are no analogues in Russia. It is quite difficult to circumvent sanctions; Western states, using the example of Iran, have learned to stop all such encroachments.
The relocation of business abroad is hindered not only by the high cost of the process, but also by the ban imposed on March 1 on Russian citizens and organizations to withdraw foreign currency abroad. It remains only the possibility of using cryptocurrencies.
What did IT companies receive according to the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 83 dated March 2, 2022:
- grants (budgetary funds will be allocated for them);
- funds for housing for workers and increasing their income;
- loans for the implementation of current activities and the development of new projects at 3%;
- zero income tax rate until 2025;
- deferral of employees from conscription for military service;
- simplified procedure for employment of foreign citizens;
- simplified procedure for obtaining a residence permit;
- three years without state control, including municipal;
- other benefits for companies engaged in advertising using online services, the development of domestic technologies.
The document is already in force, and the Government of the Russian Federation should ensure its implementation.
