Regarding import rules(russ)

Before joining a league player can choose their region if they got citizenship of any country in that region.
Regarding Russ matter hes actually Indian and is from goa

India do allow dual citizenship (sort of something) i.e. Overseas citizenship of India if either you or your spouse is of Indian origin
Oci is not allowed for people from Pakistan or Bangladesh

is he considered an import in EMEA tho? thats my question.

Like, as a result of his dual citizenship, is his region set in stone for APAC or is he not counted as an import for both EMEA and APAC?

but you said they choose their region before they join the league, as if it's a one time thing. Does this happen every off-season or at the start of franchising? is he locked into one or the other throughout 2024 or is he entirely capable of switching from an APAC to EMEA team throughout the season without being counted as an import

One time thing. Else players would be able to play in different regions every season without being counted as imports.

I believe it should be the second option, he's both regions

but if he chooses APAC before the league Im assuming that locks him out of EMEA at least for the 2024 season no?

That's such a waste though; he actually gave up the notion of playing in EMEA ever again wtf

7 teams in his home region that were considering picking him up

only one in APAC is GE

So you're telling me in theory, since I have a green card and a PR in both US and UK, while being from Asia means I can get signed to all three leagues without being considered an Import.

but after signing up in one of them you will be import for other 2
also green card holders aint citizen
oci works differently its smiliar to dual citizenship but you cant vote or do gov jobs
