Instructions
Step 1
Go to Russia legally. To do this, you need to obtain a visa at the Russian Embassy in your country. This is not necessary for citizens of a number of countries that have concluded agreements with Russia on the abolition of visas, in particular, for citizens of Israel, Belarus and some other states. Also, when passing through the border control, fill out a migration card. This document must be obtained by all foreigners entering the country. Save this map.
Step 2
After arriving in Russia, fill out a special form to obtain a work permit. It can be downloaded on the official website of the FMS in the section "Paperwork".
Step 3
Pay the state fee. In 2011, it was 2,000 rubles for citizens who arrived without a visa, and 6,000 for those who needed a visa. Details for payment can be found in any branch of Sberbank - they are placed on a special stand with samples of filling out payment documents to various authorities.
Step 4
If you receive a permit on the territory of Moscow, then you will need to obtain a medical certificate of the established form. An example of such a medical document can be seen on the website of the FMS of the city of Moscow.
Step 5
People who have come to Russia on a visa will need a more extensive package of documents than those who did not need a visa. In particular, the FMS will need to additionally provide data on the employing organization, permission for this company to hire foreigners, and the text of the future employment contract.
