Vladivostok Free Port: How to Improve Services for Business
3 September 2016
15:00

The Federal Law on the Free Port of Vladivostok was signed and came into effect in 2015. The law establishes special business conditions in 15 municipalities of Primorsky Territory. One objective of the law is to tap into the transit potential of the southern part of Primorsky Territory by creating an environment that would attract investment in port, rail and other types of logistics infrastructure and by introducing simpler freight customs clearance procedures. The law stipulates special border crossing conditions for individuals, vehicles, freight, goods and livestock entering the Free Port of Vladivostok; it governs the application of customs procedures in duty free zones and defines procedures for storing certain highly valuable assets, such as luxury items, art and antiques. This strategic session has been designed as a discussion with experts and residents of the Free Port of Vladivostok focusing on the practical side of these special conditions and on steps that must be taken to ensure high-quality government services at the Free Port. Which international best practices could be applied in implementing the Free Customs Zone in the Free Port of Vladivostok? How could the Free Port legislation be modified to make it more attractive to entrepreneurs and investors? What does the process for finding and clearing land for business use in the Free Port of Vladivostok entail?
