How do you replace a passport in another city other than your place of registration?

A passport is the main identification document for a citizen of the Russian Federation. Its absence can cause a lot of inconvenience and problems with the law. To avoid this, it is necessary to follow the requirements of migration legislation, as well as take into account specific features. For example, how a passport is replaced in another city without registration with clarification of the nuances of registration at the MFC, FMS or through State Services - knowledge of the key subtleties will save time, finances and loyal relationships with government agencies.

In what cases is it necessary to replace your passport?

Important! Please keep in mind that:

• Each case is unique and individual.
• A thorough study of the issue does not always guarantee a positive outcome. It depends on many factors.

To get the most detailed advice on your issue, you just need to choose any of the options offered:

• Use the online chat in the lower corner of the screen.
• Call: Federal number: +7 (800) 511-86-74

Existing without a passport in current conditions implies the emergence of difficulties in gaining access to some benefits - it will be problematic for a citizen to realize most of the rights due by law. Therefore, the procedure for replacing a document is strictly regulated. The following grounds can be used to initiate the re-registration process:

1. At the age when a passport replacement is necessary: ​​20 and 45 years. This approach is due to significant age-related changes in appearance. If this reason had not been provided, then problems would arise with successful identification of the individual.
2. In case of loss or theft of a document.
3. If your passport has become unusable. It is not important whether the owner intentionally damaged it or whether this happened due to time and unfavorable climatic influences. In any case, if the contents of the certificate are difficult or simply impossible to decipher, then this is a signal for replacement.
4. When changing personal data: gender, full name.
5. If errors or inaccuracies are found in the document.
6. With dramatic changes in the appearance of the holder.

Other grounds cannot be accepted as sufficient.

Russian passport: concept and features

The civil passport of the Russian Federation is the main identification document that Russians receive upon reaching the age of 14. The document contains personal information about the owner:

• last name, first name and patronymic;
• floor;
• date and place of birth.

The identity card also contains notes on:

• place of registration;
• military duty;
• conclusion (divorce) of marriage;
• presence of minor children (under 14 years old);
• issued foreign passport;
• previously issued identification documents.

At the request of the citizen, information about the blood type and taxpayer identification number (TIN) can be entered into the document. The law does not allow other data to be entered into the identity card. Their presence makes the document invalid.

Where does the replacement take place?

Replacing a passport not at the place of registration can be implemented using several quite adequate options - in this case, the choice depends only on the personal preferences of the citizen; there are no obligations on the part of the law. An application for re-issuance of an identity card may be submitted to:

Each of the above options is completely feasible. The most traditional is submitting a request to the Main Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. However, in this case you will have to spend time waiting in queues. When using the MFC, you can make an appointment in advance, then you can avoid tedious crowds in the branches, but the period for reviewing and issuing the document increases. In the situation with State Services, it is possible to reduce interaction with government employees to a minimum, but the registration period will also be slightly higher than standard, although not as much as in the MFC.

How to format it correctly: practical recommendations

1. It is best to pay the state fee on the government services portal. This will provide an opportunity to save money.
2. If a payment terminal is installed in a branch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or MFC, you should first clarify whether it is possible to pay through it, or whether you need to pay at Sberbank.
3. A citizen is not required to provide a receipt for payment of the fee.
4. If a man of military age has not been issued a military ID, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will independently verify the necessary information at the military registration and enlistment office. Officials do not have the right to demand this from the applicant.
5. To avoid problems, when filling out the application form, all words and names (places of study, work) should be written in full without abbreviations.
6. If the application was submitted through an electronic portal, you need to monitor whether an invitation to an appointment has arrived. If you fail to appear within 15 days, the government agency has the right to refuse the service and issue a passport.

There are other articles about registration on our website. You can learn about the features of obtaining a foreign passport at the place of temporary registration here, and from this article you will learn how to correctly issue this document at your place of residence.

So is it possible to get a foreign passport if there is no registration at all and without permanent registration at the place of residence? A Russian citizen has the right to receive a passport to travel abroad, even if he does not have a residence permit or registration. An employee of the body authorized to issue foreign passports does not have the right to refuse to accept documents or issue a passport for such a reason.

The procedure for obtaining a document in another region

Replacement of a passport, if registered in another city, can be carried out without unnecessary problems. It is enough to ensure compliance with the optimal sequence of actions:

1. A package of mandatory documents is being prepared for submission to the authorized service. It is important to pay special attention to the completeness of the list and the correctness of the paperwork, since compliance with the requirements of the regulations largely determines how quickly the replacement will be made.
2. An application is drawn up in the prescribed form. You can get a sample and form immediately at the department. You can fill it out at home - the form is available on the official website of migration structures.
3. A mandatory fee is paid for the implementation of the passport replacement procedure. The amount of the state fee is determined by the reason for initiating the procedure, as well as the method used. The standard rate is 300 rubles, when applying in connection with theft, loss or damage it increases to 1.5 thousand rubles, but if registration takes place through State Services, then the applicant has the right to take advantage of a 30% discount.
4. A receipt is attached to the package of papers, and all documents are submitted to the selected department.
5. All that remains is to wait until the passport is produced, of which the citizen is additionally notified.
6. At the appointed time, you must appear at the service and receive an identification card.

Note! There are no differences between the registration procedure at your place of residence and in another region - the instructions are completely identical. However, the period for consideration of a request not at the place of registration is three times higher and is 30 days. This is due to the need for additional actions by employees - they request information from the service of the locality where the applicant is registered. The process is carried out using postal services, which requires time for delivery.

Through the Internet

The procedure for reissuing an identity card using the functionality of the Public Services portal is somewhat different from the instructions for traditional options. First of all, it should be clarified that replacing a passport in another city without registering on an online resource is impossible - first you will need to get a confirmed account by going through a special procedure. To do this, you will need to go to the portal and follow the specified requirements. After acquiring access to your personal account, you need to perform a number of actions:

• In the catalog of services, select the section “Passports, registrations, visas”.

• Click on the subsection “Passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation”.

• Using the list that appears, determine the reasons for replacing the document.
• Enter the required information in the fields of the form that opens: full name, date of birth. You will also need to upload a photo.
• Provide information about the presence of a foreign passport.
• Clarify citizenship and current marital status.
• Enter information from your birth certificate.
• Set the receiving option used: in this case, by location.
• Select your preferred migration service unit.

Ultimately, all that remains is to pick up the finished certificate. The current production status can be monitored directly in your personal account.

This option is great not only for advanced users, but also for people who rarely contact online resources. Nevertheless, the Public Services portal has a considerable number of available functions and pleasant advantages to encourage citizens to use this service.

Instructions for receiving

Where to contact?

Where to go and how to apply for a passport if there is no registration? First, you need to decide which of the three methods of submitting documents is most preferable:

• online through the government services portal;
• personally through the department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation;
• in person at the MFC branch.

On a note. If it is more convenient to immediately get a personal reception with the official responsible for issuing foreign passports, then you should visit any branch of the MFC or the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Here you can either submit documents immediately or get advice on what package you should put together.

To apply for a foreign passport using the online government services service, you should go to the portal website and follow all the steps according to the instructions posted on it:

1. Login or sign up;
2. write an electronic application using the proposed form;
3. send an application;
4. pay the state fee;
5. wait for an invitation to visit the department of the Main Department of Migration Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
6. visit the police department and bring original documents to verify them with the information reflected in the application;
7. get a passport.

Thus, even when submitting documents via the Internet, a citizen will still have to come to the police in person.

Required documents

Based on the list of documents established by regulatory legal acts, you should bring your own documents, and, if necessary, documents of your children. Accordingly, every home has all the required documents. In exceptional cases, you will additionally need to bring:

• a letter from a healthcare organization confirming the need for an urgent trip abroad for treatment (for urgent issuance of a passport);
• permission from the command from the military unit - for military personnel.

New photographs should be taken, rather than taking existing ones, so that there are no problems with personal identification at customs. Photo format 35 * 45 mm. They can be either color or black and white.

Reference. You do not need to bring photographs to obtain a biometric passport. They are made on site electronically and are not pasted into the passport. The main spread of a passport of this type is a card with a printed photograph.

Filling out the form

The form must be filled out in duplicate, in block letters and in black pen. It is necessary to fill in all possible fields and provide accurate information.

For example, it is important to answer the truth when asked about access to state secrets. The photo is not pasted into the application form on its own. If the form is filled out for the purpose of purchasing a biometric passport, then the format must be electronic. In the “address” field, check the words “actual residence” and indicate the place of actual residence, even if there is no registration.

State duty amount

The fee for obtaining an old generation passport is 2,000 rubles, and for obtaining biometrics is 3,500 rubles. You can pay through a Sberbank cash desk, via Internet banking or a payment terminal.

When paying the state fee through the government services portal, a 30% discount is provided. The payment amount will be 1,400 rubles and 2,450 rubles, respectively.

Can they refuse, why and what to do?

Refusal to satisfy a request to replace the main identity card while in another region can occur for completely different reasons. But all of them will correspond to the standard ones; no features related to regional inconsistencies are provided. The most common reasons include:

• documents were not provided in full;
• paperwork criteria are not met;
• violations were identified in filling out the application;
• Invalid or inauthentic documents were submitted;
• there is no legal reason to replace the passport.

In any case, all the above factors are the responsibility of the applicant.

Important! Refusal to accept a request to re-register a document must be made in writing, indicating the reasons that served as the basis for such a decision. If a citizen accepts the reason as unlawful, he can apply to the court with a request to review the results of the consideration.

However, in most situations it is enough to simply correct the identified violations:

• deliver papers or correct inaccuracies;
• refill the application;
• confirm the existence of grounds for initiating the procedure.

In order to avoid delays, unnecessary time and financial costs, it is enough, even at the first application, to take full responsibility for the need to ensure compliance with the requirements specified in the legislation.

Why you shouldn’t apply for a fictitious registration.

The legislation provides for liability for fictitious registration. It comes in three types.

• The person is registered, but actually lives in another place.
• The registration was issued without the consent of the apartment owner.
• Registration was carried out using false documents.

Liability for false registration is more stringent.

• Deprivation of liberty.
• Fine of 100,000 rubles or more.
• For three years, a citizen will pay into the state treasury an amount equal to the average monthly salary.
• If a person does not pay money, does not have a job and does not have a regular income, he may be sentenced to forced labor.

Foreign citizens only face a fine, while citizens of the Russian Federation can receive any type of punishment for false registration.

Such measures help authorized bodies combat false registration, which was carried out for the purpose of earning money and receiving benefits.

Is it necessary to obtain a passport if the child does not live in the Russian Federation;

If the child does not live on the territory of the Russian Federation, but is a citizen of the Russian Federation, he must have a passport identifying himself as a citizen of the Russian Federation outside the Russian Federation, or, simply put, a foreign passport. For those citizens who do not live in Russia, there is no need to obtain a general passport. It is enough to have a valid foreign passport. In this situation, as a citizen of the Russian Federation arrives on the territory of the Russian Federation for permanent residence, regardless of age, he can easily obtain a new general passport, the main thing is to have a birth certificate and an international passport with him.

Temporary certificate

Citizens who have submitted documents to exchange their passport based on age may experience inconvenience due to its temporary absence. In this case, the applicant has the right to ask for a certificate stating that his documents have been accepted, or to issue a temporary identity card.

This document of Form No. 2-P confirms the identity of the bearer and is intended for use exclusively on the territory of the Russian Federation. Obtaining a temporary certificate is not mandatory. Those who decide to exercise this right will have to surrender the document after the issuance of a new passport.

Replacement ID

A passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation is a document with a certain validity period. It is first issued at the age of 14 and is valid until the age of 20. Then the replacement is carried out, and the citizen is issued a certificate that is valid until the age of 45. At this age, the last mandatory exchange is completed and the document is considered indefinite.

The regulations of the procedure are provided for in paragraph 7 of section 1 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of July 8, 1997 No. 828 “On approval of the Regulations on the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation, a sample form and description of a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation.”

What does registration at the place of residence mean?

, as interpreted by legislative acts, is considered an apartment, residential building, room, specialized residential premises (dormitory room) or any other residential space in which a Russian citizen lives as an owner or owner. Moreover, the residence is permanent, that is, the person spends most of the time at this address.

If circumstances force you to leave your usual place of residence and go to another region, then the law obliges such migrating citizens to obtain temporary registration at the place of stay. This must be done for anyone who intends to spend more than 90 days outside their region.

We suggest you understand in more detail the intricacies of migration registration in order to avoid penalties, and also learn how to do it correctly.

What to do if the child is already 20 years old and has not received a passport;

At the age of 20, a citizen is no longer a child, but an adult citizen of the Russian Federation who is required to have a Russian passport when living on the territory of the Russian Federation. Accordingly, if a person of this age does not have a passport and only has a birth certificate, there is only one way to obtain a general passport - through identification. This procedure may take a long time, but due to the fact that the citizen is an adult, it cannot be done without it, because it is necessary to determine that this is the person he claims to be.

Reasons for refusal to issue

If the collection and submission procedure is not followed, the entire package of documents may be returned back to the applicant. Such an unpleasant event can occur for the following reasons:

• If, when a teenager fills out the form, the information provided is deliberately distorted.
• If an accidental error is discovered.
• If a receipt is not attached, or the payment has not yet reached the recipient.
• If the fields are filled in in a foreign language.

If the package of documents was returned for the reasons stated above, it must be redone and the documents submitted again.

In very rare cases, internal affairs authorities may refuse to issue a document at all. This is possible mainly in a situation where a teenager does not have Russian citizenship at all and no grounds for acquiring it.

In all other cases, when the issuance of the main document is delayed or other obstacles to obtaining it are created, it is necessary to urgently contact higher authorities or directly to the court. This, of course, should be done by the parents of a teenager.

Punishment for late replacement of a civil passport based on age

Citizens of the Russian Federation should know how many days they can use their passport without a fine after 45 years. We have already said that the law provides for a 30-day period after the birthday in order to make a replacement.

Citizens who missed the period allotted for exchanging a document will be subject to administrative liability. According to Part 1, Art. 19.15 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, such persons will be fined in the amount of 2 to 3 thousand rubles. If the offense was committed in cities of federal significance (Moscow, St. Petersburg), the citizen, in accordance with Part 2 of Article 19.15 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, will have to pay from 3 to 5 thousand.

Deadlines for obtaining a passport

The law sets a clear deadline for collecting and submitting documents to obtain the main citizen document. It is exactly 30 days and not a day more. This period is counted from the teenager’s fourteenth birthday. According to the law, it is the child’s parents who must monitor compliance with the specified deadline, since in this case they are responsible for the delay.

If the deadline is still missed, the procedure for obtaining a passport does not change, except that the application form indicates a different basis - not “on reaching 14 years of age” but “receives for the first time.”

However, if there was a delay, you should not calm down and delay submitting documents. Without a passport, a teenager will not only be unable to buy tickets and cross the border, but also register for admission to exams.

What is a Russian passport?

According to domestic legislation, the role of a document that certifies the identity of a Russian citizen is played by a general passport. It contains key information about its owner, and should be used as an identification document in various life situations:

• for personal identification;
• to interact with banking organizations;
• to purchase tickets for domestic transport;
• in some cases - to travel abroad.

Until recently, this document had the format of a paper book familiar to everyone. But starting in January 2015, new forms were put into use in the form of a plastic card equipped with an electronic chip. The program to replace old passports with new ones is designed for 10 years and should be completed by 2025.

We recommend that you find out in more detail exactly what rights it gives you.
