The financial crisis has forced the Moscow authorities to increase the value of a patent for migrant workers in a month.
Now Azerbaijani guest workers from 1 January 2016 will have to pay an additional 5% - 4,200 rubles, the head of the Moscow Economic Policy Department Maxim Reshetnikov said at the VII Moscow Civil Forum.
According to him, it is the result of indexing and binding of the patent to the labor market and wage growth in the city. The cost of a patent is 13% of the salary of 32-33 thousand rubles (the average level in areas, where migrant labor is common, that is trade, utilities, and construction). --17D-
