According to article 10.5 of the federal law “On information, information technologies and information protection”, the localized version of the Netflix service in Russia will have to broadcast 20 federal channels of the first and second multiplex after being entered into the register of audiovisual services. Alexey Byrdin, head of the Internet Video Association, told TASS agency about this.
Netflix streaming service, Netflix.com website and apps are owned by American company Netflix Inc. According to Russian law, a company is obliged to open a legal entity in Russia within two months that would control 80% of the authorized capital, or apply to a special government commission for permission to keep a 100% stake under its control. Alexey Byrdin called the decision of Roskomnadzor to include Netflix in the register of audiovisual services to regulate its activities by government agencies.
Experts believe that for Netflix broadcasts, you will have to use special software, or your own, but modified to meet the requirements of Roskomnadzor. The Russian version of Netflix was added to the audiovisual services register on December 28. He will have to comply with the provisions of the law from March 2022.
