Jurists of the project “90180.ru”, which provides free legal aid to Moldovans who work, settled or intend to go to the Russian Federation, say the difficulties related to the imposition of bans on entering this state are among the most often problems experienced by migrants. In a news conference at IPN, jurist-consultant Xenia Draga said that each problem necessitates an individual approach and the jurists of the project “90180.ru” are best informed in this regard as they follow the amendments made to the legislation on migration.

Another jurist of the project Vladimir Morozov said the attempts to elucidate the legislation consciously or because of lack of knowledge result in penalties and many people reach an impasse when they are banned from entering the Russian Federation. That’s why the persons who intend to go abroad are advised to inform themselves about the procedures applying to migrants before leaving the Republic Moldova and the jurists of the project “90180.ru” are ready to help them.

“The bans on entering the Russian Federation are the most often reported problems. An increase in tensions is witnessed in society. The migrants are unable to integrate into society and the hygiene and working conditions worsen,” stated Vladimir Morozov.

Those who have questions about migration for work purposes in Russia can seek free legal advice in the office located at 22 Traian Blvd in Chisinau.

The project was launched by the manager of the Regional Public Organization Alexandr Kalinin. About 200 persons have asked for advice during a month of the launch of the project.

The name of the project derives from law No. 90180, which has been applied on the territory of the Russian Federation since January 2014. Under this law, a foreigner without a visa can stay in Russia for a period of 90 days during 180 days. For a longer stay, the person should obtain a work patent or a long-stay visa.
