In the Khabarovsk Territory, deputies of the regional parliament have significantly reduced the tax rate for small and medium-sized businesses operating under a simplified taxation system. In particular, the rates for the object of taxation income decreased from 6% to 1%, and for the object of taxation income minus expenses they were reduced from 15% to 5%, a correspondent of the portal PROkhab.ru reports with reference to the press service of the governor and the government of the Khabarovsk Territory.

It should be noted that this bill was adopted as part of the regional plan of priority actions for intensive development of the economy, approved by the Governor of the Khabarovsk Territory, Mikhail Degtyarev. Those entrepreneurs who have received at least 70% of income from their main activity, if it is included in the preferential list of activities, consisting of 22 points, will be able to take advantage of such a privilege. We add that the effect of this adopted law applies to all transactions that are subject to taxation from January 1, 2022 until the end of this year.

– Preferential tax rates under the simplified taxation system as a measure to support small businesses are used in the Khabarovsk Territory not for the first time. But, in comparison with previous years, now its meaning has fundamentally changed. If in 2020-2021 support was provided to the sectors of the economy that were most affected due to restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic, this year support is provided on a preventive basis. That is, according to statistics, no affected industries have yet been identified, and support has already been provided. Taking into account the realities of our time, the list includes, first of all, those industries and activities that can contribute to the rapid adaptation of the economy to new conditions and the acceleration of import substitution processes. For example, we are talking about the production of electrical equipment or the IT sector, – said the Acting First Deputy Minister of Economic Development of the Khabarovsk Territory Maxim Tarasov.

Recall that such a reduction in rates under the simplified taxation system in the Khabarovsk Territory is not the first time. Thus, last year the rate was reduced from 6% to 3% for income and from 15% to 8% for income minus expenses. The list of affected sectors of the local economy then included 16 different types of activities. And now there are 22 activities on this list,among which are the production of food and beverages, textiles and clothing, paper and paper products, metallurgy, wood processing and wood products, computers, electronic and optical products, electrical equipment, software development, as well as activities in the field of information technologies, activities of travel agencies and other areas. According to the Ministry of Economic Development of the Khabarovsk Territory, in total, about 3,500 thousand local small and medium-sized businesses operating in the above-mentioned preferential sectors of the economy will be able to take advantage of such a tax benefit.
