To the investor

The procedure for obtaining the status of a resident of a Special Economic Zone is regulated by Federal Law "On Special Economic Zones in the Russian Federation" dated July 22, 2005, No. 116-FZ.

A company planning to obtain the status of a resident of an industrial-production special economic zone must take the following steps:

1. Register a new legal entity in the territory of the municipality where the special economic zone is located – Kochetavsky District of Novosibirsk Region.

2. Prepare an investment project passport and a financial model of the investment project, the forms of which are established by the Order of the Ministry of Economic Development of the Russian Federation No. 189 dated April 1, 2024.

3. Prepare an application for entering into an agreement on conducting activities.

For the consideration of the application for entering into an agreement on conducting activities, the following documents are also required:

- A copy of the state registration certificate of the legal entity or individual entrepreneur.

- A copy of the tax registration certificate.

The application must contain information about:

- The intended activities of the applicant in the special economic zone.

- The area of the land plot required for the applicant's intended activities.

- The expected amount of investments (not less than 120 million rubles) and the expected amount of capital investments during the applicant's activities in the special economic zone, including the amount of capital investments within three years from the date of entering into the agreement on conducting activities (not less than 80 million rubles).

Enter into a purchase agreement for the land plot with the Management Company of the SEZ PPT "Novosibirsk" - LLC "Northern Park Development."

A Free Customs Zone is a customs procedure under which goods are placed and used within the territory of a Special Economic Zone (SEZ) without the payment of customs duties, taxes, as well as without the application of non-tariff regulation measures regarding foreign goods and without the application of prohibitions and restrictions concerning goods of the customs union.

EAEU Customs Code - Chapter 27 "Customs Procedure of the Free Customs Zone"

Technical conditions are issued by the Management Company of the SEZ "Novosibirsk" - Limited Liability Company "Northern Park Development" (LLC "NPD") - or by a company that has entered into an agreement with LLC "NPD" for the creation and development of infrastructure within the territory of the SEZ PPT "Novosibirsk."

It is possible to exit the SEZ by mutual consent of the parties or through the court if there have been violations.

In the event of termination of the agreement on conducting activities, an entity loses its status as a resident of the special economic zone.

A company can lose its resident status only through a court procedure - from the day the court's decision comes into legal force, if it fails to fulfill the terms of the agreement or conducts activities with serious violations:

- Engaging in entrepreneurial activities within the SEZ that are not provided for in the agreement on conducting activities.

- Failing to carry out the activities outlined in the plan for six consecutive months from the moment the management company establishes the fact of inactivity.

- Failing to make investments, including capital investments, in the volume and within the timeframes specified in the agreement.

- Initiating bankruptcy proceedings against the resident of the special economic zone in accordance with Federal Law No. 127-FZ "On Insolvency (Bankruptcy)" dated October 26, 2002.

If a company loses its status as a resident of the SEZ, it may continue to operate within the zone, but without any benefits.

An agreement is concluded between the resident and the Management Company of the SEZ "Novosibirsk" - Limited Liability Company "Northern Park Development" - which includes a passport and financial model of the company's investment project.

During the term of the agreement, the resident is obliged to carry out the activities stipulated in the agreement, the passport, and the financial model of the investment project.
