Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation, Federal ministry in IQ-quarter building, Moscow, Russia.
The Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation is a federal body housed in the IQ-quarter building in Moscow, Russia. The institution oversees telecommunications, postal services, and media regulations across all Russian territory.
The body formed in May 2008 from former Soviet communication agencies and merged several separate administrative structures. The move from the Central Telegraph Building to the IQ-quarter complex marked a spatial reorganization of federal communication administration.
The ministry carries the longest name among all Russian federal bodies and uses the shortened form Mintsifry in everyday speech. Staff members work with internal platforms to advance e-government projects and coordinate regional digital initiatives across the country.
Visitors can access digital services, communication regulations, and media resources through the website digital.gov.ru. Public information is primarily available online, as the administrative offices serve mainly internal government work.
The body operates specialized departments including Roskomnadzor, Rospechat, and Rossvyaz, each covering different communication and media sectors. These subdivisions work under separate legal frameworks and manage distinct registration and licensing procedures for media and operators.
