Why a TRP

What a temporary residence permit gives you

A TRP is a blue stamp in your foreign passport. It lets you live in Russia for three years and is the first step toward permanent residence and citizenship.

Work officially

Employment in the region where the TRP was issued, with no separate work permit or patent.

Leave and return freely

Enter and exit Russia throughout the three years the TRP is valid.

Healthcare

A compulsory health insurance policy and free medical care in Russia.

A path to permanent residence

You can apply for a permanent residence permit eight months after receiving your TRP.

Why people get stuck

Eight places where a TRP application falls apart

Decree 702 has its own particulars. These are the points where we see applications stall, in real cases.

01

Visa deadlines

The visa can expire before you collect all your documents, and you have to leave the country.

02

Translations

A missed page or a wrong character can make a document invalid. Spelling must match across documents.

03

Application form

Errors, empty sections or missing details about relatives can lead to refusal.

04

Medical exam

Only accredited clinics count, and the data must match your passport translation and registration.

05

State fee

A payment using wrong details may not be credited, and getting the money back is very hard.

06

Police clearance

It is valid for only 90 days in Russia, and a replacement can take months.

07

Appointment and filing

Slots in Moscow can be 3–5 weeks out, and requirements differ by region.

08

Extra demands

Without Russian it is hard to respond to requests the regulations don't require. A lawyer can.

The traditional-values program covers citizens of 47 countries. Send us your citizenship and situation, and we will tell you whether it applies to you.

Do I need to speak Russian?

The TRP under Decree 702 has no exam. Filing is in Russian, though, so a language barrier makes it harder. A specialist can go with you. Our lawyers work in English, French, Italian, German and Spanish.

How long does it take?

The visa stage takes from 1 week, and collecting and submitting documents in Russia usually takes 2–3 weeks. A manager will confirm the timeline for your case and region.

Can I move with my family?

Yes. We handle applications for the whole family, and family applications get preferential terms. A manager will include them in your proposal.

What comes after the TRP?

You can apply for a permanent residence permit eight months after receiving your TRP. We can support you with permanent residence and citizenship as well.

Can I do it on my own?

Yes, and we can support that with an analysis of your documents and a step-by-step plan. If you want to reduce the risk of a mistake, a specialist can take on more of the process, up to a full turn-key move.
