Salaries for state employees to increase effective from October 1st
Magaadan News: Salary Increase for State Institution Employees Announced
Starting October 1, 2025, salaries for various categories of Russian state institution employees will increase by 7.6% due to rising inflation. This salary raise affects civil servants including employees of the Rosgvardiya (National Guard), Ministry of Internal Affairs, Federal Penitentiary Service, Federal Bailiff Service (FSSP), Federal Courier Service (FPS), customs officers, as well as military personnel.
According to government decree No. 2071-r of August 1, the raise will be implemented via an amendment to a government decree increasing the salary indexation coefficient from 4.5% to 7.6%. The actual payments reflecting the salary increase will begin arriving in November 2025, although recalculations start in October.
The Defense Ministry specifically pushed for this higher raise for military personnel, outpacing the earlier approved 4.5% increase. The affected sectors include military personnel, National Guard (Rosgvardiya), Interior Ministry employees, Federal Penitentiary Service staff, Federal Bailiff Service employees, Customs officers, and Federal Courier Service workers.
It's important to note that this salary policy applies to employees of federal/state institutions. It is separate from the private sector, where salary raises are not mandated by this decree and remain at employers' discretion.
