“It has been a long time since a single piece of legislation has caused such a huge wave of incomprehension, disappointment, and indignation among thousands of foreign managers,” said Matthias Schepp, chair of the German-Russian Chamber of Commerce. “There is a danger that Russia will lose its attractiveness as a place to work for many foreign managers.”
According to a letter addressed to the government on Monday that was seen by Bloomberg, Russia should ease the rules and drop testing for foreigners listed as highly qualified specialists as well as those who hold residency permits. The appeal was signed by 10 trade groups, including the US Chamber of Commerce and the Association of European Businesses.
The new regulations apply both to highly qualified specialists and Russia’s large population of migrant labourers, many from former Soviet republics in central Asia, who make up the bulk of the country’s 11.6-million foreigners, according to UN estimates.
