As a country with the largest land area in the world, Russia has many borders with China and has always had a good relationship with China. So what's it like to immigrate to Russia? Let's take a look together. Welcome to reading.

I. Interpretation of Russian Immigration Policy

1. According to the length of stay, different types of foreign immigrants are defined. According to Russian immigration policy, Russian foreign immigrants will be divided into four categories according to the length of stay: temporary residence, short-term residence, long-term residence and illegal residence.

"Temporary stay" refers to foreigners who enter Russia with a visa or visa-free, have obtained a Russian entry card but have no residence permit or temporary residence permit, and stay in Russia for three months (which can be extended to one year due to special reasons).

"Short-term residence" refers to foreigners who have obtained a short-term residence permit and have stayed in Russia for no more than three years.

"Long-term residence" refers to foreigners who have obtained a long-term residence permit and have stayed in Russia for no more than five years.

"Illegal residence" refers to foreigners who have no residence permit or residence permit.

2. Introduce the quota system for foreign workers and implement the quota system for citizens of CIS countries to work in Russia for the first time.

On the premise of ensuring the domestic employment environment, reduce quotas and effectively attract foreign labor. The quota system for foreign workers refers to the Russian government's examination and approval of the application quotas for the introduction of foreign workers by federal entities. The specific distribution plan of labor indicators in each region will be jointly formulated by the Russian Ministry of Health and Social Development, the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Enterprises and the private sector must obtain the quota permission of the labor department and register with the tax department before hiring foreign workers, and have the obligation to pay labor tax and immigration tax for foreign workers. In the examination and approval of quotas, the government gives priority to areas with labor shortage in the Russian economy, such as construction and agriculture.

3. Increase penalties for business owners who employ illegal workers and foreign workers who violate immigration laws and regulations, and severely crack down on illegal immigrants.

According to the data of Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs and Immigration Bureau, as of 2006, there were 65,438+200,000 immigrants from CIS countries in Russia, of which 7 million were illegal immigrants, mainly in the fields of construction, industry, agriculture and commerce.

According to the new law, foreign citizens who violate immigration registration regulations will be fined 2,000-5,000 rubles, and those who are serious will be handed over to the court for judgment and repatriated.

Foreign citizens illegally staying in Russia will be ordered to leave the country within a certain period of time and will be prohibited from re-entering the country within a certain period of time. Foreign citizens who have been punished more than twice for violating immigration laws and regulations in Russia will be denied visas and residence procedures, and business owners who illegally employ foreign immigrants can be fined up to 800,000 rubles.

4. Standardize the market order and restrict and prohibit foreigners from engaging in retail trade in Russia.

According to Russian law, foreign workers are not allowed to engage in retail activities of alcohol (including beer) and drugs in Russia. In other retail trade except shops, the proportion of foreign workers allowed to be used is gradually reduced from 40% to completely banned.

The booths of domestic producers should account for at least 20% in the retail market and at least 50% in the food market. At the same time, it is stipulated that only those who hold a salesperson card can sell goods, complete various tasks and provide services to consumers. The salesman card shall be issued by the company managing the market according to the lease contract or according to the provisions of individual cases upon application.
