The Kremlin said on Friday that staff in some government departments were subject to travel bans, while others required people to provide notification of plans to go abroad.
Reuters reported on Thursday that Russia was making overseas travel harder for some officials due to fears that foreign powers may try to gain access to state secrets during the worst crisis in relations with the West for more than 60 years.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the situation varied between different government departments.
