Qualifying

In the 2025–26 season, Russian skaters competed in domestic qualifying events and national championships for various age levels. Russian Grand Prix for senior skaters and the All-Russian competitions for junior skaters, leads to four events – the Russian Championships, the Russian Junior Championships, the Russian Grand Prix Final and the All-Russian final competitions "Federation Cup".
From March 1, 2022, onwards, the International Skating Union banned all figure skaters and officials from Russia and Belarus from attending any international competitions following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. As a result, all skaters were required to qualify through the Russian Grand Prix and the All-Russian competitions' series.
