TL;DR. Russia’s legal-entity register is EGRUL, run by the Federal Tax Service (FNS). https://egrul.nalog.ru did not respond when last checked. No fees, search fields or account rules could be confirmed, so fees read unknown rather than free. Confirm US, EU, and UK sanctions lists at those sources. This page does not prescribe a screening workflow.
Sanctions. US, EU, and UK sanctions on Russian persons and sectors remain in force. Accessing a company register for compliance research is not a licence to trade with a sanctioned party. This page does not prescribe a screening workflow.
What is the official Russia business registry?

EGRIP (individual entrepreneurs) has historically shared the same FNS portal; confirm at source.
Entity types under Russian company law have included OOO, PAO, AO, unitary enterprises, and foreign branches; confirm at source.
What can you search?
No working EGRUL search form could be reached, so its OGRN and INN fields, PDF extract steps and captcha could not be confirmed; confirm at source.
How much does it cost?
