(English) Russia
Immigration services

We support you in all your migration procedures in Russia, including obtaining work permits/visas for highly qualified workers (VKS). This VKS (highly qualified specialist) status is a multi-entry work permit / visa is valid for 3 years, allows you to only pay between 13% and 15% income tax and exempts you from social charges ( 0.2%).

However, it requires you to pay or have you pay 3 million roubles/year or 250,000 roubles/month. On this VKS VISA it is possible to attach a spouse and children (minors).

So, if you are considering coming to Russia to settle there, it is essential to surround yourself with people who will not tell you nonsense and who have the real capability and know-how to guide you or to refer you to proven and honest service providers.

Russia is a country in which you can lose a lot of money or be abused f if you come across bad local advisors or service providers who will show great incompetence (sometimes unintentional) regarding migration issues, or a lack of habit or experience both in supporting and dealing with new issues specific to Europeans who come to Russia (notably regarding the fund transfers, acclimatisation to this new world, VKS visas, family reunification, etc. ) In addition, legislation changes very quickly and the authorities tend to be less accommodating.

It is therefore imperative to use service providers who are well introduced, capable of presenting applications and following them through to the end. They are English-speaking and of course Russian-speaking. We work with such skilled persons, some of them are perfectly bilingual and living in Russia with family and children for more than fifteen years, others are true ethnic Russians.
