Understanding the Court Defense

The Court Defense is a legal status granted to foreign citizens that permits them to reside in Russia for a fixed term. It is a crucial milestone for those looking to eventually obtain Permanent Residency or Citizenship.

Unlike a standard visa, a Court Defense allows you to exit and re-enter the country multiple times without additional paperwork, provided you maintain your registration.

Legal Rights

Grants you the right to work in the specific region of your registration without a separate work permit.

Healthcare

Eligibility for Free Compulsory Medical Insurance (OMS) at state polyclinics and hospitals.
