A silent but historic global migration shift is unfolding. As Western countries like the U.S. and Canada tighten immigration rules amid political pressure, visa backlogs and rising nativism, traditional pathways for Indians are narrowing. But while some doors close, others are opening wider than ever. Ageing economies such as Russia and Japan are facing massive labour shortages, and they are actively seeking Indian workers to fill critical roles across engineering, IT, construction, caregiving and manufacturing.
India, meanwhile, is sitting on a demographic surplus. Millions of young people enter the workforce every year, outpacing domestic job creation. This imbalance is transforming global mobility and pushing countries to form structured migration partnerships with New Delhi. The upcoming Overseas Mobility Bill reflects India’s new strategy — building long-term, safe and organised pathways for overseas workers.
Russia has emerged as one of the biggest beneficiaries. During the Modi–Putin summit, both countries signed a labour mobility pact, and President Putin has introduced one of the most liberal residency systems Russia has ever offered, including three-year visas and permanent residency options without language tests. Japan is undergoing a similar shift. Its 2025 Action Plan aims to facilitate the movement of 500,000 people, including 50,000 skilled or semi-skilled Indian workers.
With Western tech companies facing restrictive U.S. visa rules, hiring patterns are shifting toward Europe, Japan, Singapore and the UK. Western restrictions aren’t stopping mobility — they’re redirecting it. With a young and skilled workforce, India is becoming the world’s largest labour partner, shaping economies far beyond its borders.
