What data do we need for migration
policy planning ?
• Data on migration situation (stocks, flows, trends)
• Demographic profiles, trends and projections
• Estimation of labour market development and other
economic considerations
• Data on public opinion related to migration and
migrants, tolerance, xenophobia, etc.
• Estimation of MP costs and resources that authorities
are ready to spend on migration policy
• Etc.
•
Lack of reliable data is a background for incompetent interpretation of
available statistics and manipulations with public and policy-makers’ opinion,
increase in xenophobia, stimulation of federal budget redistribution, growth of
MP costs

Amendments to the Crime Code – punishment for trafficking in human
beings (2003)
Dozens of derivative or related acts – decisions of Government, orders

The Concept of migration processes
regulation (2003)
•
Two spheres of regulation declared – internal and
foreign migration
•
Internal migration – one dominant: to avoid depopulation of Eastern and
Northern regions (declaration rather than real efforts)
Foreign migration – two dominants:
1.
recognition of migration as main demographic resource and
comprehension of necessity to attract migrants to the country with
ageing and decreasing population .
Human capital is a resource and a reason for competition between
countries.(This is the main geopolitical consideration: Russia must try
not to loose in competition with other countries with rapidly developing
labour markets.)
•
2.
intention to protect Russia from negative consequences of migration –
increase in crime, illegal employment and its support by shadow
economy, drugs traffic etc.
14
Rules of Entry
• Without visa ( CIS countries except
Georgia and Turkmenistan)
• Visa is compulsory (all other countries)
• Residence permit
• Other documents (for some categories)

Main shortcomings of basic laws and practices
in migration management in RF
Contradictions between “needs” and “fears”, between
strategy and tactics of migration policy, prevalence of
restrictions rather than stimuli
• Terms of residence permit and temporary residence permit
granting are too strict and complicated
• Terms of work permit granting are too strict and complicated
(and it takes too much time to get it)
• Police registration procedure is complicated and inconvenient
• Deportation is the main measure to battle illegal migration
Additional limitations for efficient migration policy:
•
•
•
•
Corruption among people responsible for migration management
Inefficient border control
Resources limitation: Cadres, Finance, Information (especially statistics) No estimation of economic effect of migration in RF, no
estimation of MP costs, no reliable statistics on flows.
No civil control over FMS activities
40
Main (preferable) directions of future
Migration policy in RF
• Regularization programs
• Stimulation of resettlement (for residence)
• Stimulation of temporary immigration (economic - special programs of
stimulation of skilled migrants, investors and workers; educational
migr.)
•
Quotation of refugees (and more efficient support of those who really need help).
• Better control at the borders (equipment, training of staff, etc.)
• Control over illegal migration(economic and penetentiary mechanisms)
• More strict approach to illegal migration organizers and corruption
among persons, responsible for migration control.
• Revision of migration estimation and registration schemes,
introduction of new and reformation of existing data collection
systems (Registers of foreign population, surveys, current statistics
reform).
41
Conclusions
• RF authorities should revise their attitude towards
immigration and make their policy friendlier.
• The legislation should be changed and unreasonable
limitations which make Russia not attractive for
migration should be revised as well.
• Information about migration must be collected within
frameworks of transparent methodology and access to it
should be free.
• Decision-making process in the sphere of migration
management must not be monopolized by one ministry
and should involve representatives of civil society.
• Professional training should be provided for people
responsible for migration management
