  1. There is no such law. According to the legislation of the Russian Federation, rights and freedoms are protected by the Constitution of the Russian Federation, international legal acts, the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Article 127.2 use of slave labor), and the Labor Code of the Russian Federation (Article 4 prohibition on the use of forced labor).

    Similarly, in other countries that have at least some interaction with each other, and therefore are protected by international treaties.

  2. I will add to Alexandra's answer: in addition to public law norms (public international, criminal law), you can not enter into a contract for selling yourself (or a friend:) into slavery and according to private law norms. Such a contract will simply be invalid as it contradicts the principles of law and order and morality, and I think that a similar rule exists in the civil legislation of any state. Therefore, the answer is that you can “sell yourself into slavery” at any age, but this will have nothing to do with the law – all this will happen outside the legal field. That is, neither the slave nor the slave owner can defend the “rights” under such a “contract” in court – for the court, such a contract simply will not exist. But for the court there will be a crime that will entail criminal liability for the slave owner.
