On 14 November 2025, Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1789 “On Amendments to the Government of the Russian Federation Resolution of 17 July 2015 No. 719” was published, which clarifies the requirements for bearings for the purpose of classifying products as domestically manufactured.
A new Note 70 is introduced into Resolution No. 719. Under this note, products for which classification as Russian industrial products require the use of ball or roller bearings manufactured in Russia (OKPD-2: 28.15.10) will be considered Russian only upon confirmation that these bearings comply with the specific requirements set out in the annex to Resolution No. 719. At the same time, if such bearings are used in products that have no analogues manufactured in Russia, this rule does not apply.
The amendments enter into force on 1 July 2026.
Significance of the Changes
The new requirements reflect a long-term government strategy for industrial localization in priority sectors, aimed at achieving technological sovereignty.
