В России хотят ввести утильсбор на иностранную технику и смартфоны

The initiative to develop domestic industry has already been supported by the Ministry of Industry and Trade

A recycling fee for a new category of foreign goods may soon appear in Russia. This includes imported electronics: smartphones, tablets and video cameras, printed circuit boards.

It is assumed that through the recycling fee, Russia will be able to receive new funds into the budget, which will be directed towards the development of its own similar industries. <br>

Representatives from several industry consortia proposed this initiative at a round table in the Federation Council. In their opinion, a recycling fee should be introduced for five OKPD codes. These are "portable computers and smartphones", "tablet computers", "video cameras", "image recording and reproduction equipment" and "assembled printed circuit boards".

We propose implementing the recycling fee according to the following scheme: the first year - only for imported equipment, the second year - for imported and domestic. But for domestic, significantly lower than imported counterparts.
Dmitry Klimov, Head of the "Professional Video Monitoring and Radio Communication Systems" Consortium

The initiative has already been supported by the Ministry of Industry and Trade. There are no specific time frames for the implementation of the idea yet. However, Konstantin Dolgov, Deputy Chairman of the Committee of the Federation Council on Economic Policy, told reporters in a conversation with the "Parliamentary Newspaper" that a recycling fee at the request of Russian technical industries will definitely be introduced.
