The Ministry of Industry and Commerce did not ease import substitution of electronic products. For this reason, some computer equipment could be excluded from the department’s register in 2024, writes Kommersant.
Manufacturers and regulators are discussing the possibility of relaxing the regulation’s requirements at least starting in early fall; Otherwise, companies will lose preferences in public procurement.
Some manufacturers, according to the publication’s interlocutors, have already made it clear: since they agreed to a points system in 2023, they should adhere to it in the future.
Manufacturers, according to experts, will have to cheat to get a sufficient number of points and maintain preferences in the public procurement market.
- In early September, Russian developers asked to relax the requirements of the point system. Companies are worried that starting next year, to fall under the definition of “domestic production”, they will have to use boards made not in China, but in Russia. According to the manufacturers, there are not enough of them on the market. And without being registered, companies will lose their advantage in public procurement, which is why they ask to freeze these requirements.
