About 3,000 IT companies may lose their Ministry of Digital Development accreditation if they do not submit a confirmation application by July 1, 2026. The Ministry has already sent warnings to organizations.
Without status confirmation, a company may be excluded from the register of accredited organizations and lose the right to support measures tied to accreditation. By early June, over 16,000 organizations had already submitted applications.
Employees of accredited IT companies, for example, are eligible for preferential IT mortgages, and conscription-age men are eligible for deferment from military service if they meet the program's conditions.
For the companies themselves, accreditation provides reduced social insurance rates and a preferential corporate income tax rate. If an organization does not confirm its status, these benefits may disappear.
The Ministry of Digital Development has also expanded the list of companies that can receive state accreditation. It now includes software and hardware-software complex developers for state information systems, participants in particularly significant digitalization projects, copyright holders of Russian software for pre-installation, and developers of solutions for critical information infrastructure facilities.
It is expected that the Ministry of Digital Development will send decisions on accreditation confirmation to organizations' personal accounts on "Gosuslugi" by September 22, 2026.
