In the third issue of the review from NCC and Tax Compliance, we discuss the status and prospects of state support for the IT industry, key legislative changes from 2025, and trends in cryptocurrency settlements. We consider new regulations effective from November 1, 2024 to optimize transactions under sanctions.

We also analyze the FTS case against IKEA, which raises the issues of anti-sanctions restrictions and problems of foreign business in Russia, including the tax burden and difficulties with transfers.

The review covers options for direct investment through special economic zones (SEZs), including benefits and procedures for obtaining SEZ resident status.

We hope that this issue will become an informational aid for you and your business.
