You would still need a work permit. And there is a ³Catch-22² - by registering as a ³private entrepreneur² (which a foreign person can do) you are essentially saying that you are working, but you don¹t have a work permit, nor even the quota to get one. Also, as a foreigner some of the registration certificates and documents (with different organizations tax, statistics, bank accounts, etc.) as ³private entrepreneur² will only be valid as long as your visa registration.
