“The specified coefficient is adopted annually and allows for determining the tax burden on foreign citizens in an amount close to the tax for Russian citizens,” – explained the Minister of Economy of the region, Anna Negoduyko.

For 2022, the regional labor market coefficient is planned to be increased by 7% compared to 2021, which will, accordingly, lead to an increase in the cost of the patent for foreign citizens. A work patent is required for citizens of Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Azerbaijan.

The regional government noted that the cost of a fixed work patent for foreign citizens in 2021 is 3,890 rubles per month. In 2022, it will be more than 4,000 rubles.

According to estimates from the Ministry of Economy of Russia, revenues from the sale of patents to foreign citizens in 2022 will amount to about 90 million rubles.
