In the Russian Federation a number of laws and other normative acts, which include anticorruption elements for civil service, have been adopted in recent years, among them the Decree of the President On general principles of the civil servants’ conduct (No. 885 of 12.08.2002), the Law On the public civil service (No. 79 of 27.07.2004), the Law against corruption (No. 273 of 25.12.2008) and others.

Russian Codes of ethics and conduct for civil servants (as well as International Code of Conduct for Public Officials, Recommendation No. R (2000) 10 of the Committee of Ministers to Member states on the on codes of conduct for public officials) contain rules, concerning general principles of conduct for civil servants, conflict of interests, acceptance of gifts or other favours, confidential information, political activity.
