In Samara, a Tajik migrant was deprived of his residence permit due to lack of income.
In Samara, the police deprived a citizen of Tajikistan of his residence permit because he could not financially support himself and his family members in Russia.
According to the regional court, the residence permit was issued in 2021 by the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Samara region.
In 2024, the document was annulled by the decision of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the region. The official version is that the police were not provided with evidence of the ability to support himself and family members in Russia within the subsistence minimum, without resorting to state assistance.
The Tajik attempted to challenge this decision in the Oktyabrsky District Court of Samara, but was denied.
The court noted that the plaintiff had no source or amount of income, official place of work, or real estate in Russia. He also failed to provide information on tax payments or evidence of monthly child support payments.
The name of the Tajik citizen is not disclosed. The court’s statement only includes his initial – K. The Tajik migrant is unavailable for comments. His further fate is currently unknown.
Recently, Russia has increasingly deported Tajik migrants amid tightening control over migrants following a violent incident at “Krokus City Hall.” After this incident, control measures were intensified, leading to an increase in detentions and deportations of migrants, particularly citizens of Tajikistan. The cost of work patents has also risen, and new restrictions on migrant labor activities have been introduced in most regions of Russia.
According to statistics, in 2024 alone, more than 90,000 migrants were deported from the country by Russian court decisions. For comparison, in 2023, 44,200 people were deported from Russia, and in 2022, 26,600.
