Simplified Procedures For Business Trips Taken By Foreign Specialists Working In The Russian Federation

10.01.2011

The Ministry of Public Health and Social Development has issued new regulations regarding which categories of foreigners have a right to work outside the region that issued their work permit and/or temporary residence permit, as well as how long they work outside that region.

Working outside the issuing region is now allowed foreigners in Russia on the basis of a visa or temporary residency who have work permits and for those foreigners classed as highly qualified specialists:

  • Those work permit holders who are in Russia on the basis of a visa and sent on a business trip by work for no longer than 10 calendar days during the validity of the work permit;
  • Those with temporary residency may work no longer than 40 days during any 12 months.
  • Highly qualified specialists may work no more than 30 days annually during the validity of the work permit.

However, if the work contract specifies that the employment requires frequent travel or work in multiple places, a work permit holder may work for up to 60 calendar days during the validity of the work permit.

In this case, work permit holders with temporary residency may work for no longer than 90 days during 12 months and  highly qualified specialists may work an unlimited number of days.

This is according to Decree #564 of the Ministry of Public Health and Social Development from July 28, 2010 “On Establishing Cases For Labor Activity of Foreign Citizens and Stateless Persons in the Russian Federation Outside of the Territory Determined by their Work Permit and/or Temporary Residence Permit."

The full text of the Decree was published by Rossiyskaya Gazeta on September 17, 2010.
