In four steps. About 12 minutes. A passport, a smartphone, and an internet connection — that's all it takes to convert your political support into legally significant authorisation a parliament will count.
Estimates vary, but the post-22.02.2022 wave is the largest emigration from Russia in over 20 years. The diaspora pays VAT, hires, rents, runs research labs and creates jobs in its host countries. The constituency is real; what is missing is the legal-tech layer that turns it into countable, auditable representation.
Click each step to see what happens, what data we collect, and which existing online services do the work.
You scan your Russian passport with your phone. Sumsub reads the ICAO 9303 NFC chip (where supported) to prove the document is genuine, then a quick liveness selfie confirms you are the holder.
No raw passport data is ever stored on our servers in cleartext. Only a cryptographic attestation — "Russian national, over 18, holder of valid passport, not a deepfake" — is bound to your wallet.
ComplyAdvantage runs your verified identity against the UK OFSI consolidated list, EU Council Regulation 269/2014 designations, and the US OFAC SDN list — in real time.
A clear screen is logged as evidence and forms part of every aggregated submission. This is what allows a parliamentary committee to accept Quorum's mandate counts: every single principal has been independently sanctions-checked.
The Civic Special Power of Attorney is short, narrow, and translated. You read what you are authorising and what you are not authorising — voting, money, sub-delegation are all explicitly excluded.
You sign with a Qualified Electronic Signature via Namirial (or InfoCert / Evrotrust). Under eIDAS Article 25(2) this has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature in all 27 EU member states.
Your mandate joins the registry. Quorum representatives can now include you in the count when filing aggregate submissions to PACE, the European Parliament, the Bundestag Petitionsausschuss, the UK APPGs, and amicus briefs at the European Court of Human Rights.
Revocation is one click in the portal. The next presentation to verifiers excludes you automatically, with sub-second propagation. The mandate also auto-expires after 24 months unless you renew.
Quorum is infrastructure. Existing diaspora initiatives plug in — and gain documented authority where they previously had personal stature alone.
Free legal consultations for Russians abroad: navigation of host-country law, drafting requests to officials, and affidavits to strengthen migration cases. Yashin's team can issue Quorum-backed cSPAs to file documents in court as the principal's documented agent — not as a famous emigrant writing on someone's behalf.
Developer mobilisation against the ruling party. Tools for unblocking, distributing uncensored information, and modelling real public opinion using AI. Volkov's developers can build campaign-specific tools that read Quorum's verifier endpoint — rather than reinvent identity from scratch.
Quorum's pilot opens with one hundred founding principals, recruited through trusted diaspora networks. If you would like to be one of them — or to refer your community — write to us.
