Abstract

In 2022–2025, numerous amendments were adopted to Russian mi­gration legislation. Among them are: a reduction in the length of stay for visa-exempt foreigners; the introduction of a deportation regime; a ban on allowing foreign citizens and stateless persons who pose a potential threat to national security to cross the border; the introduction of mandatory Russian language proficiency testing and the requirement to present doc­uments proving legal residence in the Russian Federation when enrolling children of foreign citizens and stateless persons in school; simplified acqui­sition of Russian citizenship for foreigners who have entered into contracts with the Russian Armed Forces and other Russian military formations; and a ban on the deportation and readmission of such foreigners. All these measures have had a significant impact on the migration regime and the processes of integrating foreign citizens into the host society. This article is devoted to the consequences of the aforementioned legislative innovations in the field of integration.
