According to Anton Ignatov, General Manager of the Multifunctional Migration Center, the application is part of a number of measures to strengthen control of compliance with migration legislation. With the help of foreigners, the interior organs can remotely inform the residence and change.
The main function of the application is the transmission of data on the geographical position of the device in the Russian Ministry of Interior. This will increase the control of the security and prevention of crimes by unscrupulous foreign citizens.
On September 1, 2026, foreigners who come for a purpose that is not related to labor force activities for more than 90 days will participate in the experiment. The exception is Belarus citizens, children, diplomats and members of their families and employees of international organizations.
