It’s easier for participants in the state program to find work

To find work in Russia, compatriots and their family members need to present a certificate confirming their participation in the State Program (they do not need a patent or work permit).

This significantly simplifies the integration and adaptation process for citizens, opening up new horizons for pursuing professional ambitions and building a life in our country.

In this case, the employer will not need the permit to recruit and employ foreign workers that is mandatory in other cases.

Compatriots and their family members have the right, in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation they have chosen as their place of residence, to:
🔵 work as employees;
🔵 receive vocational education, including postgraduate and
supplementary education;
🔵 be investors or entrepreneurs;
🔵 engage in agricultural activities or agro-industrial
production;
🔵 run a personal subsidiary farm;
🔵 carry out other activities in accordance with the law.
