>Information about the import of 1 million migrants from India to Russia by the end of the year does not correspond to reality, the press service of the Ministry of Labor told RBC.

>The Ministry of Labor emphasized that workers from «visa» countries, such as India, are attracted through the quota mechanism, and quotas are formed a year in advance. The volume of quotas is determined at the request of the regions based on the needs stated by employers, with a confirmed shortage of personnel. Regional proposals are considered by an interdepartmental commission and approved by the government.

>«Each specialist from visa countries invited within the quota applies for a work visa and work permit. And the company, before employing a visa employee, issues permission to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to attract such employees», — noted the Ministry of Labor.

>The agency reported that the total quota for attracting foreign workers in Russia in 2025 is 234.9 thousand, for Indian citizens — 71,817. Directly for the Sverdlovsk region, the quota is 4,343 people for workers from all visa countries. According to the department, by July 9 it was used by 13.6%.

To summarize - the region where this guy was quoted has a legal mandate for only 4,300 foreign workers and it's middle of the year and they've only used up 14% of that quota.
