Russian President Vladimir Putin signed the Federal Law of the Russian Federation “On the legalization of Russian and foreign official documents and on the requisition of personal documents.” A message about this was posted on the official website of the head of state. Previously, the law was adopted by State Duma deputies and approved by the Federation Council of the Russian Federation. One of the fundamental innovations of the law will be the abolition of the ban on the export of certain personal documents of citizens from the country, which has been in force since Soviet times.
