“Within the framework of the meeting, the urgent tasks of further development of the Eurasian economic integration were considered.

The parties paid special attention to the spheres of industrial cooperation, circulation of medical devices, taxation issues in the provision of services in electronic form.

The meeting participants approved a "roadmap" for the implementation of the Main Directions of Industrial Cooperation in the EAEU until 2025.

The document includes a list of relevant activities in all six areas identified by the Eurasian Intergovernmental Council in April 2021, ”the statement says.

It is noted that "the draft Protocol on Amendments to the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union of May 29, 2014 in terms of determining the procedure for collecting indirect taxes when providing services in electronic form was approved."

“The amendments fix in the law of the union the term“ services in electronic form ”and the methods of paying VAT for the provision of such services.

The document will be sent to the parties to carry out the domestic procedures required for signing, ”the government’s press service said.

They said that "the parties approved a new procedure for the import of products subject to mandatory conformity assessment."

“Changes have been made to the requirements for the implementation, maintenance and assessment of the quality management system for medical devices, depending on the potential risk of their use, which will make it possible to assess the quality management system in the form of production inspection using means of remote interaction.

This is necessary to realize the possibility of bringing medical devices to the market in emergency situations or the threat of the spread of epidemic diseases, as well as preventing a shortage of products in the general market of medical devices, ”the press service added.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated the need for the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union to continue to build up cooperation in industrial and agricultural spheres to form a stable common market.
