Positive changes in the immigration legislation of the Russian Federation.

The complete list consists of 22 professions, and first of all, covers the managing personnel:

  • General director of joint-stock company.
  • General director of the company.
  • General director of enterprise.
  • Head of Representative office.
  • Director (Head, Manager) of enterprise.
  • Director of company.
  • Director of joint-stock company.
  • Apart executive staff, this list comprises highly specialized positions, where work requires special professional education, knowledge and great experience in the area:
  • Specialist of biological physics
  • Specialist of biological chemistry
  • Engineer-Microbiologist
  • Engineer of management information systems
  • Information protection engineer
  • Engineer of operations automation and mechanization.
  • This provision is aimed primarily at the development and support of investment projects that are currently underway in the regions of the Russian Federation or are at the initial stage of its realization.. From our point of view, this change has a considerable impact for Companies just entering the Russian market that have no possibility to submit the application on necessity in foreign labour force as well as for Companies, whose Directors are foreign nationals. It means that even if the current 2008 quota or reserve of quota will expire it will not influence the possibility to obtain or extend current work permits for those professions mentioned in the Decree. However it should be mentioned here that the Company is still obliged to submit the application on the vacant position to the territorial employment centre, (in accordance with the new Administrative regulations recently adopted) and in case if they manage to find a Russian national who will meet all the requirements, announced by the Company, the issue of the work permit cannot be guaranteed. However we would like to point out the positive nature of this change and we do hope that this is just a first step in the long process of Russian immigration legislation improvement.. In case you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
