Migration processes are an integral part of world politics. People have long sought to create the most comfortable living and working conditions for themselves. Often, in their homeland, citizens fail to realize their potential, so they decide to move abroad, where they have a much greater chance of providing themselves with a decent life and a secure future for their children. Some countries welcome the influx of foreigners, others are against attracting migrants. In order to resolve this issue and organize a well-functioning system of entry and exit from the country, each power adopts its own migration legislation.
Migration policy state is a set of measures, individual for each country. In Russia, the migration industry has been developing for a long time and is now at the stage of improvement and modernization. During the Soviet era, residents of the country were constantly subject to infringement of their own rights and opportunities. Only after the collapse of the Union were Russians able to legally leave the country without fear of reprisals and the consequences of their actions. Along with the intensive outflow of Russians to the Russian Federation, an active influx of foreigners from countries that were former Soviet republics began. In order to optimize the flow of people leaving and entering, a modern migration policy in Russia was formed.
The official date when Russian migration law was formed is the day of adoption of the Constitution of the Russian Federation. In addition to this document, the authorities have adopted a number of laws, decrees, regulations and international agreements that establish the rules and procedure for the movement of migrants in the country. Today, state migration policy in the Russian Federation is based on freedom of movement and the right to choose a place of residence. Control in this area is exercised by the Federal Migration Service. It is this structure that must be notified about leaving and entering the country, changing place of residence and registration. It is best to learn from an experienced lawyer how to cooperate with the Federal Migration Service in order not to violate the current migration law. On our website, experts provide online consultations, finding an individual approach to each applicant.
Main types of migration in Russia
To understand what the state migration policy of the Russian Federation is based on, it is necessary to understand what types of migration exist, how they differ and how they influence the development of the country’s socio-economic and demographic sectors. can be classified according to:- Duration. People can enter and leave the country, either permanently or temporarily, with the aim of returning to their homeland.
- Reasons for moving. A number of reasons can force people to change their place of residence, among which the most common are economic (unemployment, inflation), political, military, family, etc.
- Directions. Migration can be external, when people leave their homeland, as well as internal. In the second option, people change their place of residence, but do not go abroad.
- Organizations. According to the circumstances under which migration occurs, it can be divided into forced, mass and individual.
Migration law in the Russian Federation recognizes each of the above options. Labor migration deserves special attention. It can refer to any type, but differs in the purpose of the move. Migration of labor resources is always carried out with the aim of finding work and employment, obtaining high wages. In Russia, according to current migration laws, foreigners can find work if they have a work permit or patent. An exception to the rules are citizens of countries that are members of the Customs Union. They do not need to have any permits to work in Russia.
State policy of the Russian Federation in the field of migration law
In 2012, the President of Russia approved the Concept, which regulates and forecasts, sets tasks and goals, and explains the conditions and stages according to which Russia’s migration policy will develop. The plan has been developed until 2025, the main steps towards the implementation of the concept are the development of regulations and the creation of the necessary infrastructure (in the period from 2012 to 2015), the implementation and monitoring of the measures taken (for which time is allocated from 2017 to 2020), as well as assessment of the effectiveness of the measures taken (from 2020 to 2025). The concept was developed based on many years of experience work of the Federal Migration Service and how state migration policy has been implemented over the past 20 years, as well as taking into account international practice and other strategic planning documents. According to the document, the main goals that should be implemented by 2025 are:- solving demographic problems of the Russian Federation and organizing uniform resettlement of citizens;
- improvement of Russia's economic indicators and the influx of highly qualified personnel;
- guarantee of national security for local residents and foreign migrants;
- reducing cases of discrimination between the indigenous population and migrants;
- achieving balance in the labor market in Russia.
On the website of the Federal Migration Service, anyone can access the full version of the Concept for the Development of the Migration Sphere until 2025. To save your own time, you can ask our online expert to explain to you the basics and directions of the document, as well as the rules for its implementation.
Today, migration law in Russia does not fully meet its objectives. Current rules attract temporary migrants, limiting the possibility of their full integration and resettlement in the Russian Federation for permanent residence. The concept is aimed at improving these laws and maximizing the adaptation of foreigners in Russia. The point of the program until 2025, which is aimed at attracting professionals and experienced personnel from abroad, as well as students and young professionals, deserves special attention. It is planned that by the end of the project the population of the Russian Federation will be about 146 million people.
Voluntary resettlement program in the Russian Federation
Migration policy is a set of laws and actions aimed at resolving the situation in the country, organizing the legal movement of Russians and foreigners within the state, as well as outside its borders. One of the effective directions for implementing policy in this area is the state program for the voluntary resettlement of compatriots. The project was adopted in 2006 and was designed until 2012. Over the course of six years, the program surprised people with its effectiveness and popularity, so in 2013 the Russian authorities decided to make the project indefinite.
Today, anyone who meets certain criteria can come to Russia for permanent residence for favorable conditions. A compatriot is a person who was born in the Russian Federation or the USSR, and also has Russian relatives or ancestors. If the applicant is a member of one of the presented groups, and also knows the Russian language, respects the laws of the Russian Federation and has a positive reputation, he will be accepted in Russia and will be provided with a number of benefits and privileges.
To become a participant in the program, the applicant must contact the Federal Migration Service or the Russian diplomatic mission abroad and submit identification documents confirming the existence of grounds for participation. Within two to three weeks, the organization’s employees will check all the data and information, after which they will provide the applicant with a certificate. It is this document that will give you the right to claim all benefits and bonuses. It is worth noting that the state provides significant financial support to resettled compatriots, benefits, allowances, etc. Privileges will only be given if the person moves to a priority region. The list of subjects of the Russian Federation available for resettlement is quite large, but does not include overpopulated regions such as Moscow and St. Petersburg.
Main problems
Migration law of the Russian Federation is constantly being improved, because today in this area the authorities of the Russian Federation are faced with various problems and troubles. One common challenge is internal migration. Residents of the Far Eastern and northern regions are moving to more developed cities with high economic level and broad prospects. In addition, residents of rural areas do not see the advantages of life in the countryside and flock to the cities. The level of urbanization today exceeds all acceptable levels. New laws and rules, a developed concept and compatriots are designed to resolve the problem that has arisen and optimize internal settlement indicators.
The second global problem in the Russian migration sphere is illegal migrants. There are illegal immigrants in every country, and everywhere the authorities are trying to eradicate this phenomenon. People from abroad cross the border illegally or enter legally, but decide not to formalize their further status in the country. These individuals create competition in the labor market because they are ready to work for the minimum wage. Local residents with high qualifications remain on the street because of these practically free workers. Illegal immigrants do not pay taxes, but enjoy all social benefits. Which negatively affects the economic situation in the country.
In order to reduce the number of illegal migrants, they will face large administrative penalties for violating migration laws. According to the administrative code of the Russian Federation, the amount of the fine for violating the migration order varies depending on the nature, extent and duration of the illegal actions. The amount of sanctions is usually about 2000-5000 rubles. If the violation is committed repeatedly, the amount is doubled. In case of serious violations or systematic neglect Russian laws the foreigner faces eviction, deportation or expulsion, which is accompanied by restrictions on entry. Such persons will be prohibited from entering Russia for three, five or ten years.
