TIN 8709008861, PSRN 1028700587244

The Chukotka Autonomous (until 1980 - national) Okrug was established on December 10, 1930. It has had the status of an independent subject of the Federation since June 17, 1992. The status was confirmed in 1993 by the decision of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation.
The area of the district is 721.5 thousand km2, which is 4.2% of the territory of the Russian Federation and 11.7% of the Far Eastern Federal District.
The district occupies the land area between the lower reaches of the Kolyma River in the west and Cape Dezhnev on the Chukchi Peninsula, as well as the islands of Wrangel, Ayon, Arakamchechen, Ratmanov, Geralda and others. On land, the region borders the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), the Magadan Region and the Kamchatka Territory. Chukotka is separated from the U.S. state of Alaska by the Bering Strait.
CAO is located on the extreme northeastern tip of the Eurasian continent, cutting into a wedge between the Pacific and Arctic Oceans. It is washed by the East Siberian, Chukchi and Bering Seas.
The region is one of the smallest in Russia. The economy of the District is based on mining. The structure of tax revenues to the regional budget is similar to the GRP structure. Traditionally, companies engaged in the extraction of ores and sands of precious metals are the largest taxpayers. The district's economy is characterized by high GRP per capita due to its very low population.
