Tax residency
Easy to leaveWhat makes you a tax resident — and how hard it is to stop being one.
- Physically present in Russia for at least 183 calendar days during any 12‑month period within the calendar year (days may be intermittent)
- Short absences (less than six months) for medical treatment, education, or work on offshore hydrocarbon deposits are treated as days of presence and do not break residency
Tax residency for individuals is based purely on day‑count, not citizenship or domicile, and there is no statutory tail rule; once you spend fewer than 183 days in Russia in the relevant 12‑month period (and do not fall under the protected short‑absence categories), tax residency ceases.
