The HQS Program

Russia welcomes highly qualified professionals and offers them the opportunity to settle in a country that values expertise and innovation. The first step is employment with a Russian company.

Once employed, there are simplified procedures to obtain work visas, work permits, and residence permits—including access for family members.

Depending on the employer type and salary level, different tracks are available. Various industries have minimum salary requirements starting at 750,000 RUB annually for IT specialists and researchers, while the general threshold is around 2,000,000+ RUB.
