In article are considered theoretical questions of legitimate restrictions on the right to freedom of movement and free choice of place of residence. Researched that restrictions under international law are exhaustive and no other restrictions are not valid. Limits imposed by national legislation and existing practice should not extend beyond the limits defined by the international acts. The restriction of freedom of movement and free choice of place of residence may be established in respect of the person’s status and territory to which they apply.
