"There are six preferential regimes in operation in the Far East and the Arctic. These include 18 advanced development territories (ASEZs), 22 municipalities with free ports (FPV), the Arctic Zone of the Russian Federation (AZRF), the Kuril Islands of the Russian Federation (KIRF), the Special Administrative Region (SAR) on Russky Island, and the International Advanced Development Territory (IADT). Depending on the chosen regime, businesses are provided with tax incentives, land plots, necessary business infrastructure, and free customs zone procedures. Furthermore, each resident receives HR, marketing, and information support, as well as comprehensive one-stop-shop assistance from the Far East Development Committee," explained Anastasia Nabatchikova.
One promising investment area, according to the speaker, is the petrochemical industry. The Far East and the Arctic account for 81% of the country's total gas reserves.
