Ms. Olga Grigorieva
General Director

Our team notifies you that on 24 February 2021 the President of the Russian Federation signed the law, which allows AO and OOO entities to hold their general meetings (including annual ones) in the form of absentee voting.

Until the end of the year, the provisions of Federal Law dated 26 December 1995 No. 208-FZ on Joint-Stock Companies and Federal Law dated 8 February 1998 No. 14-FZ on Limited Liability Companies disallowing the holding of the general meeting of shareholders/members on a number of matters in the form of absentee voting have been suspended.

Matters of approving annual reports and annual balance sheets may also be found on the agenda of the general meeting held in the form of absentee voting.

Holding the general meeting in the form of absentee voting shall be approved by resolution of the executive body of OOO, and the procedure for convening a meeting and its minutes shall be documented pursuant to the effective legislation.

Please note that when planning to hold the general meeting and approve the financial statements for 2020, the statutory deadlines shall be complied with: no earlier than 2 months and no later than 4 months after the expiry of a financial year (i.e. during the period from 1 March until 30 April).

Our team will be glad to assist you in compiling the relevant corporate document and answer any questions in this regard. We will be pleased to render prompt support. To contact us, please send a message to info@sterngoff.com.
