What taxes are planned to be introduced? For Russian companies, the tax on income will be 13%, while foreign companies will pay 15%. Information system operators’ services and the issuance of DFAs will be exempt from VAT.
What events happened before? According to the head of the State Duma Committee on the Financial Market Anatoly Aksakov, three platforms for the issuance of digital financial assets (DFAs) by SberBank, Norilsk Nickel, and Transmashholding have already been registered in Russia, with two more being prepared for launch. And by the end of 2022, the first DFAs can be issued.
In April, the Bank of Russia discussed the concept of organized DFA trading with market participants: brokers, exchanges, and information system operators who have the right to issue an asset.
