Russians with alimony debts wanted to restrict travel

Gazeta.Ru: Deputy Bessarab proposed to limit travel to debtors for alimony

Member of the Social Policy Committee, MP Svetlana the State Duma admits an increase in restrictions for Russians with alimony debts. In particular, they wanted to ban recreational trips across Russia until the funds were paid in full, Gazeta.Ru writes.

Bessarab complained that restrictions have a greater impact on debtors than “parental or filial debt”. For example, a ban on traveling abroad, on driving a vehicle, unless they are the only source of income.

“I think that it is this line that needs to be expanded. Maybe introduce a ban on moving around the territory of Russia until all debts are paid. I mean trips of an entertainment nature, ”the deputy suggested. She added that the legislation on alimony should be toughened to restrict Russians even more.

Earlier, lawyer Ivan Soloviev warned Russians about expanding the list of incomes to withhold alimony. Now the list will begin to take into account scholarships, unemployment benefits, income of the self-employed, funds from the sale of real estate, dividends, interest on bank deposits and the amount of refunded taxes.

In August 2021, it became known that almost six million Russians became not allowed to travel abroad due to debts. Every tenth citizen, restricted in this right, is a debtor for alimony.
