Immigration for Scientists and Artists

Russian immigration laws have always been lenient towards foreigners who can bring tangible benefits to the country. For example, foreign representatives of science or art can become temporary or permanent residents of Russia without much difficulty. They also have the opportunity for expedited Russian citizenship. This category also includes foreign athletes competing under the Russian flag at prestigious international competitions.

How Refugees Can Immigrate

Russia, like many countries, has faced waves of forced migrants who are trying to enter its territory for various reasons. To obtain refugee status in Russia, it is necessary to prove to the Russian immigration authorities that the forced migrant and their family members faced real danger in their homeland. This could include armed conflict, political persecution, discrimination based on nationality, or religious beliefs. Many foreigners try to use the opportunity to obtain refugee status not only to leave their homeland but also plan to stay and acquire citizenship.
