Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree on temporary measures regarding illegal migrants in the Russian Federation, with the aim of developing a law on their deportation.
According to the document, illegal migrants in Russia must either leave the country independently or regularize their legal status by April 30.
In 2024, Russia has adopted several laws that tighten migration policy. One of them introduces a mechanism for registering migrants through a controlled persons registry for foreign citizens who remain in Russia without legal grounds. Data about such individuals is recorded from the day of illegal border crossing, visa cancellation, or residence permit cancellation.
