From January 1, amendments to the federal legislation for residents of the advanced development territory come into force. Deputy Governor Olga Kuznetsova reported on this and on new investment projects that will be implemented in the region within the framework of the preferential regimes of the ASEZ and the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation at an operational meeting in the Government of the Murmansk Region.

“Advanced development territory residents will have the right to have branches and representative offices within another ADT. This innovation will undoubtedly allow expanding cooperation and creating new production chains between the subjects of the Russian Federation, - said the Deputy Governor. - Today we have three residents of the ADT: Novatek-Murmansk, Renaissance Arctic, Terminal Udarnik, and one application is under consideration at the Corporation for the Development of the Far East and the Arctic.

Another preferential regime that has been in effect on the territory of the region since August 28, 2020 is the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. To date, 12 companies in the Murmansk region have received the status of a resident of the Russian Arctic and are implementing investment projects in Liinakhamari, Murmansk, Olenegorsk, Kirovsk, Kovdor, Umba and in the White Sea settlement.

Another 32 applications registered on the arctic-russia.ru portal are under preparation. Olga Kuznetsova emphasized that representatives of small and medium-sized businesses can obtain the status of a resident of the Russian Arctic, since the minimum threshold for capital investments is now only 1 million rubles, and in the near future the conditions will become even more loyal.

“On the instructions of Mikhail Vladimirovich Mishustin, following a trip to the Murmansk region, the Ministry for the Development of the Russian Far East developed amendments to the federal law, which would allow taking into account capital investments on the part of a potential resident not only in real estate, as established now, but also in movable property, which will be the main asset resident ", - explained the Deputy Governor.
