The recruitment of citizens of Ukraine: permission. Registration for work of citizens of Ukraine

Recently, more and more Ukrainians are sent to work in the Russian Federation. What are the reasons for this phenomenon? What kind of work exists for citizens of Ukraine and how to correctly draw up all documents for the performance of work? These and many other questions will be answered further.

Status of a citizen of Ukraine in Russia

As you know, foreign citizens can be on the territory of the Russian Federation under different statuses. So, the same Ukrainians are able to stay in Russia as representatives of the following social groups:

• Persons temporarily in the country (the limitation here is three months maximum);
• Persons temporarily resident in the country (for this, a corresponding permit for up to three years must also be issued);
• People permanently residing in the country (this requires a so-called residence permit - a document that allows you to stay in the country for up to five years or more).

The recruitment of Ukrainian citizens is possible for every representative of the above groups. Ukrainians, unlike many other foreigners, may not receive a visa to enter Russia (however, the Ukrainian authorities are considering canceling the visa-free regime).

Required documents

The recruitment of Ukrainian citizens is governed by the Russian Labor Code and Federal Law No. 115 of July 25, 2002. According to these, and also some other normative acts, Ukrainian residents staying in Russia are required to provide the employer with the following documents:

• Passport, or any other document proving identity.
• Migration card with special marks of border guards.
• An excerpt from the notice on the registration for migration accounting. On the sheet should be the notes from the FMS. If the Ukrainian does not have such a sheet at all, then the employer should take up the registration of the person for three days.
• Employment history.
• Appropriate work permit.
• A document confirming the availability of certain knowledge, qualifications, available education, etc.
• Medical book (sometimes not all companies need it).

Naturally, a work permit for citizens of Ukraine can not be issued if only the above documents are available. Many employers require and some other types of documentation - it all depends on the type of enterprise, which the citizen is going to work on.

Obtaining a patent

Official registration of citizens of Ukraine for work in the Russian Federation will be impossible without giving the employer a so-called patent. A patent is a special document that allows foreigners to work in Russia without a visa to enter. In this case, the patent will be valid only in the region where it is directly received. So how do you get a patent?

Any Ukrainian who arrives in the country for work, when entering Russia, must indicate in the migration card the word "work". Then you need to register at the local office of the migration service. It needs to be done as soon as possible (for Ukrainians a 90-day period is assigned), otherwise the body can recover a considerable fine. The patent itself will be received within a month at the nearest branch of the migration department (former FMS). The term of the patent is not more than a month.

Thus, work in Russia to Ukrainian citizens is granted only if there is an official permit in their hands - a patent.

Responsibility for violation of migration legislation

The recruitment of citizens of Ukraine, the processing of various documents, appeal to the relevant authorities - all this is the sphere of migration policy. Any violation here will be punishable by administrative responsibility. What kind of misdemeanors and types of violations are worth mentioning here? Here are just some examples:

• Obtaining a patent is not where it is needed (the region where the labor activity is carried out is quite different);
• Employment without a patent;
• The citizen did not extend the established period of stay in the country;
• The patent specifies false information about the work of a Ukrainian.

What punishment can follow such violations? Russian law provides for a fine of up to 7,000 rubles, as well as the possibility of deportation from the state with a ban on further entry. Work for citizens of Ukraine, who committed offenses, may also be lost.

Features of registration

To recruit a citizen of Ukraine is possible only if the latter is registered. The registration must be made within three days from the moment of crossing the border. The Ukrainian needs to apply to the migration management body with the following package of documents:

• The passport of the Ukrainian;
• Migration card;
• Power of attorney for the implementation of actions for the placement of a person for migration accounting by the employer;
• Proof of ownership.

Then the citizen should get a work permit (for this, you have to pay a state duty) and undergo a medical examination.

Employer Actions

Any employer can employ any citizen of Ukraine. The procedure for admission is standard and practically does not differ from the employment of Russian citizens. However, if a Ukrainian is employed for the first time, information will need to be transferred to the Pension Fund and the design of SNILS.

Many employers refuse to hire Ukrainians at all. They argue it with words like "do not make out a citizen of Ukraine, because it's hard and dreary, you need to transfer a lot of papers to the authorities." This, of course, is a wrong approach. There are very few papers here, and you can send them by registered mail. Which documents do I need to register? About this further.

Notification of state bodies

The total number of securities that need to be transferred to state structures differs depending on whether the legal or natural person is an employer. So, if the head of the enterprise is a legal entity, then the authorities will have to transfer:

• A copy of the certificate of entry in the EGRUL;
• A copy of the application for tax registration.

If the employer is an individual, that is, an individual entrepreneur, you will have to provide all the same documents, as well as:

• Documents confirming an agreement with a foreign partner on the employment of a Ukrainian citizen;
• A receipt for payment of the state fee of 3 thousand rubles for each employed citizen.

And what about the refugees? Is there any special order for them to hire? About this further.

On employment of refugees

Work for citizens of Ukraine, having refugee status, is regulated by the Federal Law "On Refugees" of 1993. At once it is worth noting that no special rules for employment, according to this bill, is not being established. Both refugees and ordinary Ukrainian citizens are recruited according to the same procedure. In particular, persons with refugee status must register with the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation, transfer information about themselves to the tax service and apply to the Employment Center.

At the same time, there are some differences: there is no need to pay a state fee, as well as the unnecessary transfer of information about the Ukrainian partner enterprise to the migration department (it is unlikely that a Ukrainian refugee can come to Russia on behalf of any company for the exchange of professional experience).

Algorithm of actions

Employees of the migration department made detailed instructions for Ukrainians, which allows them to officially find a job in Russia. So, recruitment of Ukrainian citizens will be possible only after the candidates pass the following stages:

• Crossing the Russian border;
• Filling the migration card, indicating in it a real goal (writing the word "work");
• Registration in the territorial office of the migration office - for a maximum of 3 months;
• Obtaining medical certificates and a medical certificate confirming the fact of voluntary insurance;
• The passage of a medical commission - checks for infection;
• Preparation of certificates on knowledge of the Russian language and on the availability of basic knowledge of Russian history;
• Registration of an application with the migration service with the request for a patent;
• Receipt and payment of a patent;
• Registration of employment, signing of an employment contract;
• The provision of a copy of the employment contract to the migration office.

It should be noted that citizens of any countries with whom a visa-free regime is established can follow this instruction.
