The Russian Prosecutor-General's Office said in a statement that Berezovsky is charged with "large-scale theft" of funds from the Russian airliner Aeroflot worth some $619,200.
Berezovsky could be sentenced to a maximum 10 years in jail if found guilty.
He is currently in self-exile in Britain where officials have already said they would not extradite him to Russia.
