The American Chamber of Commerce has created a department for the return of companies to Russia

On June 9, the American Chamber of Commerce in Russia AmCham Russia created a new structure to work with Western companies that are considering the possibility of returning to the Russian market.

According to the chamber, there is a "very cautious interest" in resuming operations from companies that had previously left Russia. It is specified that the number of appeals increased after the change of the US administration in January 2025.

The organization notes that some corporations ask complex and detailed questions, which makes it necessary to systematize expert support.

"And we thought, why don't we make a product that we called the advisory desk, so that when American companies contact us, we can immediately refer them to those companies that specialize in some special subject," AmCham said in a comment for RBC..

The new structure will be engaged in consulting and routing requests from companies to specialized law and consulting firms participating in the association.

AmCham Russia emphasizes that business interest remains cautious and tentative, with no specific decisions on returning to the market.
