    The stationary Navier-Stokes system is considered in an unbounded domain \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3\) \[ \begin{aligned} -\nu\Delta u+(u\cdot\nabla)u+\nabla p &=f, \quad \text{div}\,u=0 \\ u& =a\quad \text{on}\;\partial\Omega. \end{aligned}\tag{1} \] The boundary \(\partial\Omega\) consists of \(M\) unbounded components \(\Gamma^1,\dots,\Gamma^M\) and \(N-M\) bounded components \(\Gamma^{M+1},\dots,\Gamma^N\) with \(1\leq M\leq N\). The existence of a weak solution to the problem (1) is proved under the assumption that the fluxes of vector \(a\) through the bounded components \(\Gamma^{M+1},\dots,\Gamma^N\) are sufficiently small. At the same time no restriction is imposed on the size of the fluxes through the unbounded components \(\Gamma^1,\dots,\Gamma^M\).
