The government has submitted a draft law to the State Duma, which obliges to withhold 30% of personal income tax from the income of employees who have lost their Russian tax residence. The relevant bill has been published in the Support System for Legislative Activity (SOZD).
If this bill is approved, then instead of 13%, they will charge 30% of the wages not only arranged in Russian companies under an employment contract, but also from the income of freelancers.
The changes will also affect all Russians using the Russian segment of the Internet. It is assumed that the law will enter into force on January 1, 2024, if approved by the deputies of the State Duma and the Federation Council. In addition, this law must be approved by the President of the Russian Federation.
Recall that Andrei Klishas, Head of the Committee on State Building and Constitutional Legislation of the Federation Council, said that restrictive measures could be introduced against Russian citizens who left the country on mobilization fund.
Earlier, Yevgeny Fedorov, a member of the State Duma’s budget and tax committee, said Russian companies would pay an increased tax for employees who work remotely from another state for more than six months.
