Income of migrants in the Novosibirsk region will take under close control

From October 1, 2026 in Russia, including the Novosibirsk region, new legislative changes come into force, announced by State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin.

One of the changes concerns the strengthening of control over the earnings of foreigners

The Federal Tax Service will transmit to the Ministry of Internal Affairs data on the income of labor migrants who came to the country for work. The data will cover periods of 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of the calendar year. For the self-employed, the tax service will provide the amount of earnings recorded in the My Tax appendix for the year.

Based on this information, the units of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will be able to conduct inspections. If it turns out that there is no income or its size is below the established minimum, this will be the basis for refusing to grant, renew or revoke the patent. From 2027, this threshold will not be less than the subsistence minimum, taking into account the regional coefficient. Then the foreigner and his minor children will have to leave the Russian Federation within 15 days, if they have no other legal reasons to stay in the country.
