Regularities and the scope of emigration phases for the 30-year period are revealed. General factors of leaving the country (historical, institutional and political, economic) are considered; the factors defining the regional geography of emigration to the non-CIS countries are analyzed. Processes of emigration to the non-CIS countries are considered within the concept of territorial migratory systems which assumes the cyclic nature of the international migration process; the migratory process involves certain social and territorial communities, thus forming the geography of external migration. The data of the Federal State Statistics Service from the official web-site of the department, the data of migratory statistics published by the Rosstat in demographic year-books, as well as the data of 2002 and 2010 All-Russian population censuses were used for calculations and mapping. Regional features of emigration fromRussiaare analyzed for the period of 1993-2012, mainly due to the availability of statistical data. Particular attention is given to the difficulties in accounting the international migrants inRussiaand to the comparison of the data from various countries about the numbers of the international migrants.
