How and where to put a registration (stamp) in a new passport in 2021

In the early 1990s, Russia abolished a legacy of the Soviet past - registration in the passport, which had existed in the country for more than 70 years. This was received enthusiastically by Russians as a rejection of the encroachment on freedom of movement. But practice has shown that society is not yet ready for such a radical update, especially in conditions of social payments, medical care and other benefits being linked to registration. Registration was replaced by registration (although people continue to stubbornly call it registration) with a gradual transformation of its permissive nature into a notification one.

The most important document of a Russian citizen is a Russian passport.

The Russian passport is the main one in the Russian Federation. The Government of the Russian Federation, by its resolution No. 828 dated July 8, 1997, obliges all Russian citizens aged 14 years or more who reside in the country to have a Russian passport.

The document is a small book of 20 pages. The dark red cover is embossed with the coat of arms of the Russian Federation and the inscriptions:

above the coat of arms - “Russian Federation”;
under the coat of arms - “Passport”.

The document contains, in addition to the number, series, date of issue and name of the authority that issued it, the owner’s personal data: full name, gender, birth information and other data, including place of residence, military registration, etc.

A single sample document has been adopted for all subjects of the Federation; The republics are entitled to supplement it with an insert, which is agreed upon with the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Heraldic Council of the Russian Federation and duplicates it in the national language. , and his and .

We recommend that you learn more about the procedure for obtaining and replacing it.

There is no registration in the passport: what the law says

Many citizens, including foreigners who wish to live in Russia for any reason, are wondering whether registration in the passport is required and, if so, how long one can legally live without it.

First of all, it is necessary to determine what Russian legislation says about this. The main regulations that citizens or stateless persons need to rely on or navigate in matters related to registration and passport regime are:

Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 232 of March 13, 1997;
Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 828 of 07/08/1997 (“Regulations on the Passport of the Russian Federation”);
Administrative regulations on the issuance and replacement of passports (annex to the order of the Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation No. 391 of November 30, 2012);
Administrative regulations on registration of Russian citizens (appendix to FMS order No. 288 of September 11, 2012);
Law of the Russian Federation No. 5242-I of June 25, 1993 on freedom of movement, choice of place of residence in the Russian Federation;
Rules for registration of citizens of the Russian Federation at the place of residence and stay (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 713 of July 17, 1995);
Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation (Article 19.15.1).

Obviously, citizens of the Russian Federation must, and from 2 to 3 thousand rubles. (in Moscow and St. Petersburg - from 3 to 5 thousand rubles).

Art. 3 of Law No. 5242-I stipulates that the lack of registration cannot become a reason for the loss of the rights and freedoms of citizens of the Russian Federation. Clause 26.4 of the regulations requires asking applicants who have applied for or to confirm their registration at the place of residence (with the clause “if any”).

There is some duality: citizens are required to have registration, but on the other hand, it may not exist. The question of whether a passport is valid without registration worries many.

The realities of life are full of various conflicts that you should navigate well: different periods are allocated for the registration of different categories of Russian citizens, not to mention stateless persons or foreigners who live in the Russian Federation. In what cases can registration be missing?

How long can you live without registration at your new place of residence?

The sale of an apartment or your own house means the termination of the rights to use them of the previous owner and his family (Article 292 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). This implies . The legislation does not establish within what time frame this should take place; therefore, the procedure can take a long time.

Therefore, a practice has developed when a clause is included (with the signatures of both parties) regarding the timing of the removal from the apartment of the previous owner and members of his family. If there are minor children in the family, then the situation with their discharge is different: permission from the guardianship and trusteeship authorities to sell an apartment if there are children registered in it without providing them with a new place of residence in compliance with all standards (sanitary and other) cannot be obtained. Therefore, the issue of new registration of children must be resolved before the sale of housing.

A period of three days has been established for consideration of an application for deregistration of the former owner of the apartment. After discharge, you must register at your new place of residence within a week. Before the expiration of the 7-day period, no penalties can be imposed.

How long after discharge do you need to register at your new place of residence?

The legislation clearly establishes the time frame within which it is necessary to register - no more than seven days from the date of arrival at the new place of residence. Registration authorities must review the submitted documents and register the applicant within three days.

In the event that the locality does not change, the countdown begins from the moment of deregistration. In other cases, in order to prove to migration authorities that the allotted deadlines for registration have not been exceeded, you need to have travel documents with you, as well as confirmation of residence rights (ownership or lease).

Moving to a new place of residence in another city

When changing place of residence or moving to another city, the algorithm of actions is similar: registration at the new place must occur within the same time frame, the applicant must provide the same documents to the registration authority (including travel tickets, if necessary, confirm the date of arrival).

The optimal solution for registration in another city would be automatic deregistration upon registration at a new place of residence.

To do this, you need to have an agreement with the new owner of the former apartment. While in another city, you should:

Appear at the territorial registration authority with a passport and an extract from the Unified State Register of Registered Registration Registers for the right to own an apartment, a purchase and sale agreement or a rental agreement. In the latter case, the presence of all adult participants in the transaction is necessary;
submit a completed application with a request to register at the specified address, documents for real estate and a tear-off coupon for deregistration from the previous place of residence, consent of the Property Management Department (if registering in municipal housing not with close relatives);
get a passport instead (valid for 30 days) and wait for the results;

After a request for an extract has been sent, the procedures for its consideration and decision have been made, the applicant will be sent a written notification that the extract and registration are ready. After this, you need to go and exchange your temporary ID for a passport with registration.

Periods of registration at the place of stay

Russian citizens who live outside their place of permanent residence for more than 90 days must register at their place of residence (without deregistration).

Foreigners who come to the Russian Federation for one reason or another also need to register at their address. In accordance with the Law of the Russian Federation No. 109-FZ and the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 9 of January 15, 2007, foreigners who have received or issued a visa must register their residence within seven days.

For CIS citizens (for example, from Ukraine), who have the right to visa-free entry into Russia and received a migration card at the entrance, it is also advisable to register within 7 days (although they can stay in the Russian Federation for 90 days without registration), submit and then register according to place of residence.

Individual cases: birth of a child and discharge “to nowhere”

In the event that a child is born to citizens registered at the place of residence, after receiving it, he can be registered at the same address as the parents (the permission of the landlord or other residents in this case is not necessary). This will give the child the opportunity to apply for social programs, a queue for kindergarten, etc. The deadlines remain the same.

Sometimes in practice there are statements “to nowhere”. A citizen is selling an apartment, but he will have his own home in a year or two. In this case, he writes a personal application to be discharged from his old address, and will live with relatives, friends or acquaintances.

A number of categories - missing persons, deceased citizens, as well as those who are serving in the Armed Forces, serving a sentence or have lost the right to reside at a given address, also fall into this category.

How long can you live without registration in your passport without breaking the law?

Residence without a permanent residence stamp in the passport will be considered legal if the seven-day period for submission and documents is not exceeded. After submitting an application, it can be reviewed from three to eight days (excluding weekends and holidays).

If you move to another city, this period may be increased:

at the time of moving from the place of previous residence;
while waiting for a response to a request from the registration authority from the place of previous residence. The wait can last from several days to a month, and the applicant will use a temporary certificate.

Thus, the applicant can live without a residence permit without violating the law for 8 to 30 days or more, depending on the circumstances.

If there is a confirmed valid reason (purchase of housing - sales contract, business trip - travel certificate, hospital treatment - certificate), this period can be extended.

As for the period of registration at the place of stay, it is 90 days. A situation is possible when a citizen can move to another place on the 89th day and live there for another 89 days without registration, and so on.

How to check out of the apartment?

Deregistration is required in three cases:

moving to a new place of residence;
purchasing an apartment or house for permanent residence;
leaving Russia.

The procedure for leaving an apartment differs little from registration. You need to submit documents to the passport office, MFC or on the State Services portal. The application for extract serves as the second part of the one presented above for registration. Therefore, in practice, both activities are usually performed simultaneously - it is simply simpler and faster.

Two exceptions are: leaving the country and lack of clarity about the place of further residence. In such a situation, deregistration from an apartment is carried out without registration in another.

There is nowhere to register: how possible is a full life in this case?

To understand why registration in a passport is needed, it will be enough just to name a few reasons why a person’s life without registration can turn into complete hell, and solving simple everyday problems into pressing and intractable problems.

Restrictions on obtaining credits and loans

In order to be able to obtain a loan or credit from a bank, permanent registration is required. Many banks may additionally require borrowers to have permanent residence in the region where the bank itself is located.

Registration at the place of residence (temporary) will allow you to take out a loan, provided that your passport contains a stamp indicating permanent registration in another region. If this is not the case, then at best the loan will be issued for a period that will not exceed the duration of the temporary registration.

In this case, there is a way out for Sberbank clients who participate in salary projects and pensioners who receive payments on cards. Such categories can receive a consumer loan without a time limit.

It should be noted that credit restrictions are not the worst thing that can happen if you don’t have a registration date in your passport.

Lack of access to social programs, services and paperwork

Particularly serious consequences in the absence of registration in the passport will be felt when it is necessary to apply for social benefits or obtain the necessary document. Practice shows that without registration in the passport it will be impossible to:

apply for medical services (we are not talking about emergency medical care), register for medical services at a local clinic, obtain a health insurance policy;
design ;
register with the tax office;
get a well-paid job;
obtain a driver's license;
register the car;
apply for a pension;
receive social benefits;
register your child for kindergarten or school.

In addition, we should not forget that a meeting with law enforcement officials may result in a fine for living without registration.

Is it possible to live without registration?

A change of place of residence requires registration at a new place within a week. After this period, administrative responsibility begins, provided for by two articles of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation - 19.15.1 and 19.15.2. Possible punishment is a fine of 3-5 thousand rubles. for residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg or 2-3 thousand rubles. for citizens from other regions of Russia.

How to live without registration?

Typically, a similar situation arises when selling a home or leaving a previous place of residence/stay. If there is no new permanent place of residence, we are talking about a temporary stay in one or another residential premises. In this case, the citizen is given 90 days to register and obtain temporary registration.

The already mentioned articles of the Code of Administrative Offenses provide an exhaustive list of situations in the event of which a person is exempt from liability. For example, when living with a registered spouse or children.

What are the consequences of not registering?

As noted above, failure to comply with the established registration procedure results in a fine. Its value is 3-5 and 2-3 thousand rubles, respectively, for Moscow and St. Petersburg / other regions of the country.

The above applies to the absence of both temporary and permanent registration. It is important to remember the differences in terms of liability - 7 days for registration and 90 days for temporary registration.

The fine that is imposed on the owner or tenant of housing who fails to notify the regulatory authorities about a person living in his premises deserves special mention. In this case, the fine is 5-7 and 2-5 thousand rubles. according to a similar scheme described above.

It is important to remember that a much more serious offense is fictitious registration. Its detection results in criminal liability and provides for punishment of up to three years in prison.

What is permanent and temporary registration?

Permanent registration (in everyday life, residents of Russia, out of habit, call it propiska) means registration at a person’s place of permanent residence. The presence of such registration is evidenced by a special stamp in the civil passport.

When a citizen is forced to travel outside his region to another and plans to stay there for more than three months, he should register at his location.

This registration is called registration at the place of residence or temporary.

Answering the question whether a mark is placed in the passport during temporary registration, it should be said that in this case no stamps are placed in the passport, but a paper temporary passport supplement is issued. The permanent registration stamp is retained.

Where can I register?

A citizen has the right to independently choose his place of registration throughout the territory of Russia. You can register in residential premises (apartment, house, room, etc.), where a citizen actually lives with the consent of the owners or residents.

You cannot register for housing in:

non-residential premises (commercial real estate, apartments, etc.);
emergency housing (the house is recognized as unsafe or dilapidated and will be demolished);
temporary structures and outbuildings (sheds, garages, sheds, bathhouses, etc.);
residential buildings on garden and vegetable plots (can be used as housing, but without registration). The exception is houses on summer cottages;
in mortgaged housing without the consent of the mortgagee (most often these are banks for mortgage loans).

What is the procedure for obtaining permanent and temporary registration?

The procedure for registration and deregistration is developed in detail in the relevant regulations and rules. The algorithm of actions if it is necessary to put a stamp in the passport about registration at the place of residence is as follows:

leave your previous place of residence. To do this, you need to contact the registration authority where the previous registration took place, with a statement of intention to change your place of permanent residence and hand over your passport with the stamp of your old registration;
three days later, go back to the department, get a passport with a note about deregistration and;
appear at the registration authority at your new residence address. Before stamping a residence permit in a passport, civil servants must obtain a passport, departure sheet, completed forms and other documents from the applicant. The applicant is informed of the date when it will be possible to pick up the passport with a new stamp.

The procedure for obtaining temporary registration is in many ways similar, but also has serious differences:

removal from permanent registration is not necessary - the stamp in the passport is not canceled;
no departure sheet required;
the period for verifying submitted data may increase from three to eight days;
in hotels, houses for visitors, campsites, tourist centers and similar institutions, registration is carried out by the administration immediately upon the arrival of the visitor;
the registration period is established by agreement with the tenant (in the state fund and municipal buildings) or the owner of the property;
The temporary registration stamp is not affixed to the passport. The applicant receives a paper certificate of temporary registration.

In both the first and second cases, this service is provided free of charge and not paid.

It is up to you personally to decide what to do if there is no registration in your passport. The registration procedure, as a rule, does not cause any particular difficulties (if you have the necessary package of documents).

What documents may a citizen of the Russian Federation need when applying for registration?

The list of documents required for registration is given in the Administrative Regulations.

To register at your place of stay you must provide:

passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
;
statement according to f. No. 1;

The application must be signed by the applicant and the owner/occupier;
, the owner’s consent to temporary residence and other justifications for the right to temporary residence at this address.

To register at your place of residence you need:

passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
statement according to f. No. 6

when submitted by mail - Form No. 1 PR;
documents that give the right to move into a given address: purchase and sale agreement, state registration certificate, move-in warrant, relevant certificates;
house register (for the private sector);
Departure sheet (for citizens who have deregistered at their old place of residence).

Citizens under 14 years of age will need a birth certificate instead of a passport. When registering a newborn child, you are additionally required to provide parents and parental passports.

We recommend that you familiarize yourself with it in more detail.

Where should I go to apply for registration?

To register, you must visit in person or through a legal representative:

to the territorial department of the Main Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation at the citizen’s place of residence;
to the multifunctional center.

Information about addresses, reception schedules, days off and other information can be obtained on the websites and. Before your visit, it is advisable to make an appointment online (this will save you from waiting in lines).

Where is the registration stamped in the passport?

The passport is stamped only with registration at the place of residence; registration at the place of residence is reflected in the certificate. The page of the passport with registration (on which the registration stamp will be affixed) is not specifically established by law. For this purpose, the Russian passport has eight pages – from the fifth to the twelfth. When deregistering, a corresponding stamp will be affixed here.

We invite you to learn in more detail about the structure of a Russian passport, the nature of the information entered into it, as well as about.

Who can be registered?

There is an opinion that registering someone other than the owner in housing that is pledged is only allowed if the loan is fully repaid. This requirement, if presented by the lender, violates the rights of the owner (borrower).

Registering children in a mortgaged apartment

The borrower's children can be registered in such housing. By law, a child must be registered at the place of registration of his parents. The registration of a child is part of the owner’s rights to own and use his own real estate. Therefore, he has every right to register all his children in it.

Registration of relatives

There are also no restrictions in regulatory documents on the registration of close relatives - wife or husband, as well as their parents. But to register other citizens, you will need the permission of the creditor

. You may not receive it, but the lender will have a reason to terminate the contract early - he may demand early repayment of the loan.

To avoid getting into a difficult situation, you need to carefully read the agreement signed with the credit institution. This document may stipulate a requirement for mandatory notification and obtaining permission from him to register relatives. Although such a restriction conflicts with the law.

An error was made when registering in your passport: what to do in this case

The situation when registration workers make mistakes when affixing a registration stamp is quite common. In a number of cases, employees of the registration authority stamp the passport “Canceled” and put a new one with the correct data entered.

Another option: the old stamp is crossed out, “Wrong” is entered, and then a new one is affixed.

The problem is that, in accordance with the Administrative Regulations, no corrections can be made to the passport, the “Cancelled” stamp is not provided for it (FMS order No. 339 of December 7, 2007), and the corrections made and extraneous entries make the passport illegitimate. Therefore, in this case, you only need to change your passport. Depending on whose fault the mistake was made, the issue of state duty will be decided.

Features of registration

The borrower can register in the purchased apartment almost immediately after signing the mortgage agreement and registering ownership of it. To register someone else, it is advisable to coordinate your actions with the bank in order to avoid disagreements and possible claims if such conditions were specified in the agreement.

For this purpose, you need to submit an application to the bank for approval of the registration of certain persons, indicating all the data of the citizen being registered, as well as whether he is related to the applicant.

After considering the application, the bank will make its decision and inform the client about it.

Restrictions

Each credit institution has its own regulations that address registration issues. Therefore, by carefully reading the mortgage agreement, you can find out what restrictions the bank imposes on a borrower who wants to register relatives or other citizens.

Can banks issue conditions for restrictions on registration?

It’s easy to get permission to register your own relatives from creditors. But if they want to register a stranger, they may impose restrictions

, the bank may refuse to register it. Such actions by the lender are explained by its desire to minimize its own risks if the borrower stops fulfilling its loan obligations. But these actions are quite controversial.

Lack of registration in the passport: what to do

The absence of a registration stamp in a passport is not a reason to consider it invalid (sometimes it happens that when exchanging documents, registration was not added to the new passport). A citizen enjoys the same scope of rights and freedoms as others. The administrative regulations clearly state that when receiving a passport, you must provide information about your permanent or temporary place of residence. Therefore, the lack of registration can be considered a violation of this regulation.

At the same time, with temporary registration, a stamp is not affixed to the passport, but a paper certificate is issued (this is about whether a passport can be issued without registration).

A different situation arises when a citizen deregisters and does not obtain a new registration. In this case, he violates the law and may be subject to administrative liability in the form of a fine, so the more correct solution would be to legalize his residence as soon as possible.

Where can I get permanent registration if I have no housing?

The relevance of the issue is due to the fact that some civil rights, medical and social services are available only to people with registration. The same applies to obtaining loans from banks or loans from microfinance organizations.

As of today, lack of housing precludes the possibility of permanent registration. The problem can be solved using one of three methods:

purchasing housing using any of the available methods, for example, a mortgage;
registration in the housing of relatives with their consent;
obtaining permanent registration with the permission of the owner of the rented apartment.

The last two options require prior consent from the owners. In the case of close relatives, this looks much more realistic than when renting housing.
