Remote general meeting of participants

30.01.2025
On 1 March 2025, amendments to the Law on LLC regarding the holding of remote general meetings of participants by electronic or other technical means will come into force. In particular, Article 37.1 establishes the procedure for holding general meetings of participants with remote participation. 

Previously, such a procedure was stipulated in the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, but the new article in the Law on LLC provides for a more detailed regulation. This, participation in a meeting of a company's board of directors (supervisory board) may now also be conducted remotely.

These changes may significantly simplify the procedure for conducting general meetings of participants and meetings of the board of directors, but their effective application requires amendments to the company's charter, detailing the procedure for organizing and conducting them.
