Russia Grants Record 240,000 Foreign Work Permits in 2025: Highest Surge Since 2017 to Combat Labor Shortage

The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) issued over 240,000 work permits for foreign nationals in 2025, marking a record high since 2017. According to Bloomberg’s latest market review, this significant influx of labor migrants is a direct strategic response to the country's tightening workforce deficit. Analysts at Mondiara note that as the Russian economy seeks to maintain its industrial momentum into 2026, the demand for both skilled and unskilled labor from partner nations—including India, Sri Lanka, and Central Asia—continues to grow. This shift in migration policy is a critical macro-indicator of the structural transformation within the Russian labor market as it adapts to long-term demographic and economic pressures.
