According to RIA Novosti, Kirill Adzinov, Deputy Head of the Main Directorate for Migration Issues of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, stated that “the new migration law currently being developed in Russia will address issues of entry, stay, and labor activities of foreigners, and the document may come into force in 2024.
“We are drafting a comprehensive law that fundamentally changes the rules in the field of migration. It concerns legal relations related to entry, stay, and labor activities of foreign citizens, and will lead to the repeal of a number of acts currently in force. According to plans, this law should come into force in 2024,” Adzinov said.
Adzinov reported that there will be two main types of entry: visa and visa-free. It is planned to introduce a single document that will replace all documents currently issued for foreigners. Additionally, it is expected to clarify the rules for providing medical assistance to migrants within the framework of compulsory medical insurance and obtaining medical visas.
It was previously reported that migrants arriving in Russia must have a single document with an electronic carrier, which should serve as an identity document within the country, and to obtain it, migrants must submit an application to the federal executive authority in the field of internal affairs and undergo biometric testing.
