Russians who have been banned from travelling abroad will have to hand over their passports to authorities within five days after being notified, according to a government decree that comes into force on Monday.
According to Russian law, authorities can impose a travel ban on conscripts, employees of the Federal Security Service (FSB), convicts, or people who have access to state secrets or "information of special importance," among others.
The returned passport will be stored by the authorities that issued it, such as the interior ministry or the foreign ministry authorities.
After the travel ban is lifted, the passport could be returned upon completing an application, according to the government decree.
Those whose right to travel was temporarily limited based on conscription for military or alternative civilian service will have to additionally provide a military ID with proof that they completed service, the resolution says.
In March, the Financial Times reported, citing unnamed sources close to the matter, that Russia's security services were confiscating the passports of senior officials and state company executives to prevent overseas travel.

被禁止出國旅行的俄羅斯人須在5天內交出護照
根據週一生效的一項政府法令,被禁止出國旅行的俄羅斯人必須在接到通知後五天內將護照交給當局。
根據俄羅斯法律,當局可以對應徵入伍者、聯邦安全局(FSB)僱員、罪犯或有權接觸國家機密或「特別重要資訊」的人等實施旅行禁令。
退回的護照將由簽發機關(例如內政部或外交部)保管。
根據政府法令,旅行禁令解除後,完成申請即可返還護照。
決議稱,因徵兵或替代性民事服務而旅行權利暫時受到限制的人必須另外提供軍人身分證件,以證明他們已完成服役。
今年三月,英國《金融時報》引述未透露姓名的知情人士的話報道稱,俄羅斯安全部門正在沒收高級官員和國有企業高管的護照,以阻止其出國旅行。
