The Federal Law specifies the procedure for administrative punishment, specifically administrative deportation from the Russian Federation, of foreign citizens and stateless persons.
The law establishes that this administrative punishment for individual administrative offenses can be assigned by both judges and Interior Ministry officials (police officers).
Additionally, the law specifies certain clauses of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation which introduce administrative liability for violating the regime of the State Border of the Russian Federation, or rules governing entry or exit to or from the Russian Federation, for the violation by a foreign citizen or a stateless person of the rules of entry to the Russian Federation, or the regime of stay (residence) in the Russian Federation, for providing housing, transportation or other services to a foreign citizen or a stateless person who is in the Russian Federation in violation of the established procedure or the rules of transiting through its territory, as well as for rendering services banned (or restricted) under Russian Federation laws to a foreign citizen entered in the register of monitored individuals, as specified by the laws on the legal status of foreign citizens in the Russian Federation.
The Federal Law shall enter into force 180 days after its official publication.
