Armenians can enter Russia without extra labor permission and the
presence of a family member enables Armenians to live legally in
Russia. It is an important innovation for Armenian citizens, as
according to official data, by the end of 2014 more than half a
million Armenian citizens will have been living and working in Russia.

Money transfers from Russia to Armenia came to $1.2 billion. This
figure was $1.4 billion in 2012 and $1.8 billion USD in 2013.
