Has your friend been stopped by a police or at the border? 
My friends and I, have been in and out of Moscow multiple times within the 
previous calendar year and we never had any problems.
I don't believe there is such a law. That would be a serious infringement on 
human liberties, not that this is unlikely in Russia, but still. I think this 
may be connected to his registration. There is a law stating that you have to 
receive registration within three days of arrival to any city in Russia. 
failure to comply with this law may result in jail. 
I would inquire with citizen services at your respectful Embassy.
 
Best,
 
Aneta

Subject: Expat List Only 10 days outside of Moscow?


Has anyone heard anything about a new law that allows foreign passport holders 
only 10 days outside of Moscow?  Apparently in a given calendar year, one can 
only be out of Moscow 10 days?  One of my colleagues, who lives in Moscow but 
works in the Rostov region spent a few days in jail for being outside the 
limit.  Any ideas?
