Current legislation requires all citizens living on the territory of the Russian Federation to undergo temporary or permanent registration at a specific address. This procedure is of a notification nature and is used rather to register citizens. For residents of the Russian Federation themselves, having registration makes it possible to fully use all government services. But since we are already accustomed to the fact that most of the documentary formalities are paid, it will not be superfluous to figure out how much the state duty is for registration at the place of residence in 2021.
What is permanent registration?
To begin with, we note that such a concept as “registration” does not exist in modern legal documents. It was abolished back in 1993, and was replaced by the term “registration”. Nevertheless, both names can be found in the vocabulary of Russian citizens, and therefore we can easily consider them synonyms and use them in everyday speech, and not in legal documents.
Registration at the place of residence indicates that this address is the main place where the citizen spends most of his life. This fact is confirmed by a special stamp in the passport. Permanent registration is not limited by its validity period, but only those persons who have Russian citizenship can apply for it.
In addition, only the residential premises in which the applicant is registered or under a social tenancy agreement can act as a permanent residence address. This can be either an apartment or a house, or a residential property intended for company employees, as well as specialized houses:
- dormitories;
- homes for the elderly;
- shelter hotels;
- homes for people with limited physical and mental abilities.
You can obtain permanent registration only by confirming your ownership of the declared housing or by obtaining the consent of all apartment owners.
The authorized authorities for registration are the branches of the Migration Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, and in small settlements this function is assigned to local administrations. In addition, citizens can contact the MFC, if there is one in their city, or register on the Public Services portal.
The law also states that your passport must be stamped within 7 days of arrival. Otherwise, the violator faces .
If you are about to move or buy a new apartment where you plan to move the whole family, read in more detail.
What documents will you need?
The procedure for permanent registration itself is not complicated. And it’s useful to know that they cannot refuse it. The only reason that can lead to refusal is an incomplete package of documents. To prevent this from happening, we suggest that you carefully study what it should include:
- applicant.
- Directly.
- A document establishing ownership of the housing where it is planned to obtain registration.
- Consent of other owners.
The last paper will be needed if, for example, an adult child decides to register in his parents’ apartment. If we are talking about children who have not yet reached 18 years of age and who also need to be registered, in this case they must be attached to the package of documents.
Persons liable for military service will need a military ID. But a certificate of deregistration at the military registration and enlistment office at the previous address of residence is no longer needed.
It is very important that the owner of the apartment is present at the time of submitting the application. If he cannot do this, you will have to obtain his written consent certified by a notary.
After submitting the documents, the migration service has 3 days to consider the request and issue a stamp. This period can only increase if there is no document of title, which is a certificate of inheritance or a gift.

11.29.2021 at 18:07 Good afternoon. I paid for residential parking through government services. As a result, the amount was not identified and a fine was issued for illegal parking. The Parking Administration requires a certified extract with all data, a passport and the purpose of payment. But the bank cannot provide a statement; the payment was made through State Services. As a result, I don’t know how to get the money back. In fact, I paid the invoice through government services, in reality the money was stuck.. What can be done?

Fee for registration in an apartment
Out of old habit, many begin to look in the list of documents for a receipt to pay the state fee for registration at the place of residence. Even in the recent past, it was actually required. But several years have passed since its abolition: now registration in the passports of Russian citizens is absolutely free.
Previously, Russians were forced to pay 1% of the minimum wage in their region for registration. The law that provided for this type of tax lost its relevance on January 1, 2005.
In 2013, the Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation attempted to return the registration fee. A package of changes was even prepared that needed to be made to the current tax legislation. But the project was not approved, and the duty was never introduced again.
All this means that persons with Russian citizenship are not required to contribute money to the state treasury when applying for registration in an apartment.
State duty payers - who are they?
There are different types of state fees that certain individuals must pay. But before we look at each type, it doesn’t hurt to consider who exactly can pay the duty:
- Organizations;
- Individuals.
There are several reservations regarding the circumstances under which state fees can be paid by legal entities. To obtain the right in question, they must comply with the following conditions:
- Carry out the action required by law.
- Be a defendant in legal proceedings. The decision was made in favor of the plaintiff, who in this case is exempt from having to pay the fee.
Now we can consider the most common types of state duties.
Registration in a private house
The registration procedure in a private house is somewhat different from that which Russians go through when registering in a city apartment. The main difference lies in the package of documents. To register in a private housing stock, you must provide a house register in which all those who wish to register at this address will be entered.
When checking out from the designated place of residence, you will also have to make an entry in the house register. As for paying the fee, the procedure is no different from registering in an apartment. There are no fees for stamping.
Temporary registration: features
Temporary registration differs from permanent registration in that it is for a strictly limited period. Temporary registration is required for those who leave their primary place of residence for a period of more than 90 days.
This usually applies to students, company employees sent to other cities, and those going for long-term treatment. Hotels, sanatoriums, and rental apartments can serve as places of temporary registration. This procedure is also mandatory for citizens of the Russian Federation. At the same time, temporary registration does not cancel the validity of a permanent one, but only indicates that the citizen has temporarily moved within the state.
As for the financial issue, the state duty for temporary registration at the place of residence is also not provided for by law.
Consequences of non-payment
If the state fee for temporary registration is not paid, the documents submitted by the interested person will simply not be accepted.
But for the lack of registration there are penalties regulated by Art. 122 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. Since the state duty is a type of fee (clause 2 of article 8 and article 333.16 of the Tax Code of the Russian Federation), its failure to pay will result in a fine for violating migration legislation.
If you do not deposit the money within the prescribed period, the tax service, as the administrator of budget revenues, has the right to recover the unpaid amount of the fee. In such situations, the court usually sends a writ of execution to the tax office at the person’s place of residence to collect state duty (,
Registration of foreigners
All of the above related exclusively to citizens of the Russian Federation. Let's consider how things stand with those who do not have Russian citizenship, and even more so do not have any citizenship, that is, with stateless people.
First of all, it should be recalled that foreigners who arrived in the Russian Federation are also required to undergo registration, which would more correctly be called migration registration. They must do this within 7 days after entering Russian territory. You must contact the same migration service.
Important: the registration that foreigners can obtain can only be temporary, even if they are property owners.
We can talk about permanent registration only when they become permanent residents of the Russian Federation.
In this case, two types of foreign citizens should be distinguished: those who temporarily stay in the Russian Federation, and those who temporarily reside in it. In the first case, we are talking about persons who intend to leave its borders after the expiration of their allotted 90 days of stay in Russia. In this case, registration at the place of residence will be the responsibility of the property owner. You will have to pay 350 rubles for the procedure.
If a foreign guest intends to settle in Russia for a long time, he will have to request first, and then also, which is simply impossible to obtain without having a place to live. Moreover, having received one of these documents, its owner must put a registration stamp on it. The state fee for registering foreign citizens at their place of residence is also 350 rubles.
How can I pay the state fee?
Having figured out whether it is necessary to pay a state fee for temporary registration at the place of residence, foreigners need to figure out how to do this.
You can deposit funds for permanent registration in the following ways:
- Through a bank cash desk.
- Using a self-service terminal.
- Through online banking.
- Via mobile service.
- At the post office.
Each method has its pros and cons.
By turning to a cashier at a credit institution for help, a subject can quickly get answers to their questions. Upon completion of the transaction, a receipt is issued. This is the most reliable way to transfer funds. Of the minuses:
- presence of queues;
- the need to adapt to the organization’s operating mode;
- high percentage of commission for the operation.
Many citizens use the terminal to pay state fees. Advantages of this method:
- independent and timely control;
- payment by card or cash;
- small commission;
- receiving a check.
However, sometimes citizens enter payment data incorrectly, and technical malfunctions of the device are possible.
A more modern way is online banking. Its advantages:
- the ability to perform surgery at any time;
- saving personal card data;
- minimum commission.
The disadvantages include possible system failures and the actual absence of a receipt.
Mobile banking allows you to carry out transactions yourself, using only your phone. But at the same time there must be access to the Internet.
When a client contacts the post office, he will be able to receive assistance from qualified employees, which is highly likely to eliminate errors in the transmission of information. The main disadvantage is long queues.
Payment through the Sberbank online service
To pay state duty through Sberbank online, you need to be authorized in the system. This can only be done if you have a Sberbank card. Next, enter your login, password and code on the site, which will be sent to the specified phone number. If you have not previously registered, you need to go through verification using your card number, login and password to log into the Internet bank.
The choice of service is carried out after authorization and login to the main page of the bank’s website. You need to find the section “Transfers and Payments”, “Payment for Goods and Services”.
Next, you need to select the services of the desired group. To pay the fee you must:
- Select a region, an authority (when registering a residence permit, the department for migration issues).
- Indicate the recipient's details and his personal account.
- Enter the amount.
4. Check that the information entered is correct.
5. Click “Pay”.
6. Enter the code received in SMS.
It is important to make sure that the money is transferred. The payment status “Completed” will inform you about this.
Upon completion of the operation, the system will offer to print the receipt or save it. Usually the money is credited instantly, in rare cases you need to wait 5-10 minutes.
Registration of minors
The issue of children's registration causes a lot of disagreement. In fact, in this aspect everything is extremely simple. The first thing you need to know: a child who has not reached the age of majority cannot be unregistered anywhere for more than 90 days. Parents of this in the amount of 1.5 to 2.5 thousand rubles. The owner of the home where the family lives may also be subject to the same punishment.
Please note that children must be registered only where their parents are. But there is no charge for this procedure, as evidenced by the rule that applies to all Russians.
When to register newborns
As for infants, they must be registered immediately after birth. In this case, the law does not provide clear deadlines, but it is better not to delay, since registration may affect the receipt of social benefits.
As a general rule, the child must be registered in the same place where his parents are registered. But in this case, the consent of the owner of residential property is not required, even if we are talking about a rented apartment or house. You also do not have to pay a state fee for registering a newborn.
Payment Methods
There are 3 ways to pay the state registration fee. Each person can choose any of them depending on their personal preferences.
To a Sberbank branch
You can pay the state fee at any Sberbank ATM. For the convenience of users, this financial institution has special instructions for carrying out this operation. They also contain payment details, but to clarify them, you should contact your local tax office.
If a bank visitor has difficulties paying the fee, he can ask the relevant question to the branch employee.
By mail
At large post offices you can also pay a state fee to obtain a registration certificate. To do this, you need to visit the institution, fill out the appropriate form and make a payment. In this case, it is necessary to find out the details in advance, since they will be required to fill out the application.
Through the Internet
Today it is possible to pay the state registration fee at the MFC or passport office via the Internet. This can be done on the official website of the Federal Tax Service.
To make a payment, you need to select the appropriate service and follow the instructions on the portal. The user will have to enter his passport data, recipient details and the exact name of the service.
How to pay the fee
So, we found out that the service for registering Russians at their place of permanent or temporary residence is provided free of charge. But foreign citizens and stateless persons will have to contribute 350 rubles to the state treasury. There are several ways to do this:
- at a branch of any bank;
- via Internet banking;
- via terminal.
The most important thing is that you keep the receipt for the operation, since it will have to be attached to the package of documents that will be submitted along with the application to the migration service.
What else might you need money for?
Please note that the registration procedure does not involve any hidden fees. If they demand money from you for some incomprehensible services, consider such actions unlawful.
The only additional costs that may come your way are photocopies of documents. But this amount will be so insignificant that it will not greatly affect your budget.
Very often we have to deal with a situation where foreign citizens are offered to register for a certain amount. In this case, you need to be extremely careful, since this is a violation of migration legislation. And here you can’t get by with just one fine. Most often, such penalties as deportation and a ban on entry into the Russian Federation for a certain period are applied to violators.
How much does it cost to register a car in 2022?
The amount of the state fee for registering a car in accordance with Article 333.35 in 2022 depends on whether you will issue a new license plate and receive a new title. Registration of a document about a registered car costs 500 rubles. Registration of new state rooms - 2000 rubles. Obtaining a PTS - 800 rubles.
So, how much does it cost to register a car? Let's look at all calculation options:
- Registration of a car with the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate with valid license plates and PTS (there is a free space in the technical passport for recording new data). Editing data in the PTS (350 rubles) + document on the registered vehicle (500 rubles) = 850 rubles.
- Registration of a car with valid license plates and replacement of technical numbers. passports (there is no free space for entry). Editing data in the PTS (350 rubles) + document on the registered vehicle (500 rubles) + new PTS (800 rubles) = 1650 rubles.
- Registration of a car without license plates and with replacement of technical numbers. passports (no entry field). Obtaining a document on a registered vehicle (500 rubles) + registration of a title (800 rubles) + obtaining license plates (2000 rubles) = 3300 rubles.
- Registration of a new car with the traffic police. Editing data in the PTS (350 rubles) + document on the registered vehicle (500 rubles) + obtaining license plates (2000 rubles) = 2850 rubles.
Do not forget that expenses will haunt you even before paying the state fee. The car must first be taken for a technical inspection, and then a compulsory motor liability insurance must be issued.
Note! Even before concluding a purchase and sale agreement, we also advise you to check the owner of the car through a special service. The check will show whether the seller has problems with the law, whether his passport is valid, whether there are debts and enforcement proceedings. If serious problems are discovered, it is better to refuse the deal. View an example report
