PRX import rules

Can someone clarify is something is considered EMEA import or considered as special case because he is from far east Russia I think and only play Japan servers his whole career

Depends on his Japanese citizenship no?

unfortunately, right now he's import, but yes his whole career is on japan server since he had better ping on jp server

Riot just locked the entirety of Russia in EMEA, even the far East ones which are completely in Asia.
So by Riot's rules he's an import, but actually he isn't.
He has to play one more season in Pacific to change his status to 'resident'

Thats not true. He has to get a citizenship or a permanent residency in a Pacific country, and play for at least 50% of a regular season in order to change his status.

2.2.2. Resident Defined; Certification and Proof of Residency. A Team Member is considered a “Resident” of a country within a League Territory if the Team Member is either (i) a citizen, (ii) lawful permanent resident, or (iii) the holder of other special status (e.g., refugee or asylum status) in a country in the League Territory. Each Team Member must certify his/her residency by (a) submitting an eligibility form and (b) providing proof that the Team Member holds one of the residency statuses set forth in causes (i)-(iii) above.

2.2.4. Dual Citizens. A Team Member who has dual citizenship or otherwise qualifies as a Resident of more than one country cannot be a Resident of two League Territories simultaneously. Once a Team Member declares residency for a Team in a League, in order to switch residency to another League the Team Member must have participated in at least fifty percent (50%) of regular season matches of their Team within that League in its most recent split (or most recent Season if there are not multiple splits).
