The minimum wage will also be increased – the federal minimum wage is set at 13,890 rubles (last year – 12,700 rubles).
The rules for registration and accrual of pensions are changing. Thus, the recalculation of pensions for non-working pensioners in order to receive social supplements will be made automatically – you will not need to submit an application for this. You can also apply for a pension through the State Services website.
In addition, additional allowances will begin to operate for citizens who have lived in the countryside for at least 30 years – they will be able to receive a premium of 25%.
The compulsory technical inspection for issuing an OSAGO policy for those who use their personal cars for personal purposes is canceled. Technical inspection will be required when registering, changing the owner, changing the design or replacing the main units. Inspection will remain mandatory for vehicles intended for passenger or freight transport – in particular, for buses, trucks and taxis.
