FC MVD Rossii (Russian: ФК МВД России Москва) is a Russian football club from Moscow, founded in 2007. It represents the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs. Historically the ministry was represented by FC Dynamo Moscow, but Dynamo is now not directly dependent on MVD.

In 2008, FC MVD won the West zone of the Russian Second Division and advanced to the Russian First Division. On July 17, 2009, the team resigned from the Russian First Division (due to financial strait) after playing 19 games.
