Nowadays, the official term “registration” is considered obsolete. It has been replaced by a more modern one - “registration”. But in everyday life, people are still “registering” and “checking out” from their apartments. It’s more familiar and easier to pronounce.
But no matter what you call this process, the essence does not change. When moving to another place of residence, a citizen is obliged to deregister with the previous territorial migration authority and register with a similar authority at the new address.
This article will talk about deregistration and deregistration from an apartment. We will tell you in detail what actions should be taken to do this.
How to sign out via State Services yourself
The registered person can independently de-register at any time. And it doesn’t matter who the owner of the property is, his consent is not required for the procedure.
In general, there are no obstacles to the procedure. You can be discharged if you have utility debts, if you have not informed where the citizen will be registered afterwards. So, you can go to State Services and sign out at any time. More precisely, submit an application for deregistration at the place of residence.
If you plan to register in another place, which is why you are filling out an extract, then you can simply register at a new place, the extract from the old one will take place automatically within 3 days.
How to check out of an apartment through State Services:
1. The procedure is performed from your confirmed account. The required section can be found through a search by entering “Deregistration” into it. The system will display suitable sections. In our case, we are talking about permanent registration, so we choose the option of withdrawing at the place of residence.
2. The government service page will open, where the algorithm of actions and what documents are needed (in our case, only a passport) will be described step by step. After reading the information, you need to click on the “Get service” button.
3. An application form opens, which you need to fill out. First of all, the applicant indicates who will be discharged. In our case, he himself. Below, the system itself registers the citizen’s data, which is already in the account on State Services.
4. Next, the system will ask you to indicate your current registration address and a new one, if known. If not known, you can mark “no” and not indicate anything.
5. Indication of the reason for discharge. In this case, it is necessary not only to note the reason, but also to indicate its basis. It is convenient that the basis document is immediately indicated by the system. After selecting an option, a field will open where you need to enter data.
6. Next, the system will ask you to answer some questions. Whether the applicant is a citizen of another state, whether he previously had another citizenship, information is needed about the place of employment, social security, education, marital status, etc. Just fill out all the fields of the online application.
7. The next step is to select a department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs where it is convenient for you to go to complete the discharge procedure through State Health Insurance. You indicate the region of your location, the system opens a map with branches available for selection. You can choose any convenient one.
8. After specifying a convenient department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the system will indicate detailed information about it and its work schedule. If the registration form for a specific date and time does not open, it means that the reception is being carried out in a live queue mode.
Finally, the applicant agrees to the processing of the provided data and submits the application for consideration. You can track his “fate” in your personal account on State Services.
The application has been submitted, what next?
There is good communication between the State Services portal and the department, so the application is promptly sent to where it is needed. Now you need to track the status of the application in your personal account or the mobile application of the state portal. As soon as the request is processed, a corresponding notification will appear - it will also be duplicated by email address.
The applicant will receive information that he can go to the selected unit of the Ministry of Internal Affairs; he must take his passport with him. The employee will check the passport data and those indicated in the online application for an extract on the State Services. If everything is in order, the corresponding stamp is affixed to the passport.
The extraction procedure is free for citizens; there is no need to pay state fees. The period for providing public services is 3 working days.
If you need to discharge your child
Another question is if we are talking about discharging a child. The application can also be submitted through State Services, but there are a number of nuances. For example, if a child is under 14 years old, he must be registered with one of the parents. That is, it is impossible to register him, but it is impossible to leave the parent (or he needs to be registered with another parent).
It is impossible to discharge a minor anywhere, the only exception is discharge by court decision. Therefore, you must immediately indicate where the child will be registered (necessarily at the place of registration of any parent). Plus, the consent of both parents is required.
The procedure for discharging a child through State Services:
Everything happens similarly to the algorithm of actions indicated above. Only at the very beginning of the application you need to indicate that you are talking about the discharge of your own or a supervised minor child.
The system will ask you to provide the child's details. You need to enter his full name, date of birth and information about his identity document. This may be a birth certificate or passport if the child is over 14 years old.
You can immediately indicate a new address where the child will be registered after discharge. But you don’t have to specify it, then the child will automatically be registered at the place of registration of one of the parents.
The application is sent for consideration. After receiving an invitation to visit the selected department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in your personal account, you can take the child’s passport and documents and complete the deregistration process.
If you do not have a confirmed account on State Services, you can submit an application through the MFC, passport office or department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In this case, you will need to visit the authority twice: the first - to submit an application, the second - to affix a stamp on the extract.
Dates of discharge
We are not talking about exact deadlines (they may differ in each specific case and each specific situation), but rather about the regulations that the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs follows. He's next
- For deregistration and registration at a new address:
- 3-7 days for discharge without obtaining a new registration
- 14-30 days for automatic deregistration and registration at another address in the same locality
- 2-3 months for deregistration in one locality and registration in another
- For discharge without registration at a new address (“to nowhere”)
- 3-7 days
- For registration through a representative by proxy
- 3-7 days for discharge without obtaining a new registration
- 14-30 days for automatic deregistration and registration at another address in the same locality
- 2-3 months for deregistration in one locality and registration in another
- For an extract through the State Services website
- From 3 days
How can an owner remove a person from an apartment?
It’s good if the “tenant” agrees to be discharged and will carry out this procedure himself through the same State Services or another convenient method. But it happens that the registered person does not want to be deregistered, then the owner needs to take some actions.
Unfortunately, it is impossible to discharge a tenant from your apartment through State Services. If the tenant does not want to be deregistered using the standard method, he will have to go to court. If that citizen does not live in the apartment or is not a family member, the court will side with the plaintiff and make an appropriate decision. Having received the decision in your hands, you need to contact the MFC or the department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and issue an extract.
If that person has no other place to stay, the court may delay the discharge. That is, give a deferment on eviction for up to 1 year. It is believed that during this period the citizen must resolve his housing issue, and he can be safely discharged. But if we are talking about a minor, difficulties may arise and the involvement of guardianship authorities will be required.

Is it possible to check out of the apartment?
All rules related to the registration of a citizen at the place of residence are regulated by a single legislative act. This is Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 713. This act was adopted on July 17, 1995. Periodically, changes are made to Resolution No. 713 to update it in accordance with changing social realities. The last change was made on 05/25/2017 and is relevant at the moment.
If a person moves, he is obliged to check out of his old apartment - deregister - in order to register where he plans to settle. You cannot be registered in two places at the same time.
ATTENTION! It is mandatory to check out of public housing when receiving a new one. But if you lived in a privatized or purchased apartment, and then bought another one, you don’t have to check out. The law allows a citizen to own several housing properties. Naturally, one person cannot be registered in all of them. Therefore, you don’t have to check out of your old apartment even after moving to a new one (if they are located in the same city)
When deregistering, a person is not required to indicate the address of his new place of residence if:
- Traveling for permanent residence to another country
- He is going to move to a new building and plans to wait for its completion, using rented housing
- Checking out of an apartment that is owned by another person
- Evicted from an apartment foreclosed on due to debts
A tenant who is not the owner of the property may be discharged either of his own free will or be discharged at the initiative of the apartment owner.
FAQ
I am the owner of the premises. Can I register my ex-wife through State Services?
No, to discharge a former family member you must go to court; an out-of-court procedure involving filing an online application is not possible. In general, the court will side with you unless there are other aggravating circumstances.
Can I discharge my child through State Services?
Yes, the portal has such an opportunity. But keep in mind that a child under 14 years of age must in any case be registered with one of the parents. You can’t write him out anywhere.
I am 16 years old, can I apply for an extract through State Services?
Yes, at the very beginning of the online application you need to select the option “I am applying for myself, I am under 18 years old.” Applications are accepted from citizens 14-18 years old, but you will need to provide the details of a legal representative, and a minor can submit an application only from his account confirmed on State Services.
How quickly will the statement be issued?
The term for providing the service is 3 working days.
Can I be denied an extract?
No. If you are a legally capable adult citizen of the Russian Federation, you have the right to deregister at your own discretion. In this case, it is not necessary to register somewhere, but if you do not have a temporary or permanent registration for a long time, you may be fined.

Dear Yulia. Please advise. To sell my apartment, my mother and I need to register. I am the only owner. Transactions for the sale of my apartment and the purchase of an apartment for me - after the lockdown (October 30-November 7). When exactly is unknown - approximately from November 10 to 17. They ask you to check out before October 30, because... then a lockdown was announced and all government offices would not work. And you also need to issue a certificate-extract from the brownie. I will register at a new address only after the transaction for my purchase of an apartment. That is, I have been without registration for about 20 days. Penalty after 7 days. Maybe if I indicate a new registration address there will be no fine. Or should this not be done?

Dear Dmitry, in accordance with the law, the child must be registered at the place of residence of one of the parents. When a minor is deregistered, his living conditions should not worsen. You can discharge a minor without the consent of your ex-wife only if she is deprived of parental rights or declared missing. In all other cases, you must go to court. In addition, the court has the right to ask the opinion of a child who has reached the age of 10 years and make a decision taking this into account.

They were deregistered through the MFC due to registration at a different address .. residents who remained registered at the previous address do not pay housing and communal services .. They received claims for the collection of their debts. Questions: 1. Is the housing department obliged to notify the management companies (heating network, city gas, water utility, energy network, etc.) after discharge and in what document is this stated? 2. Do the above organizations have the right to sue for debt collection without making sure who is registered or not registered? 3. What is the procedure for the trial; can a decision be made even if the defendant is not notified?

Dear Marina, unfortunately, management companies do not always know their responsibilities. They must provide information about residents. When filing a claim for collection of utility debts, companies do not always specify the necessary information. In addition, interaction between organizations cannot always be established. However, you should not lose sight of the fact that the data from the MFC has not yet been received or updated. You just need to provide the court with a certificate stating that you have been discharged from the apartment at your old address and are registered in a new location.

How to remove yourself from the housing register at your previous place of residence, if you sold your apartment 5 years ago, registered at your new place of residence, putting the appropriate stamps in your passport (about deregistration at the old address and registration at the new place), however, as it turned out, I am registered in my previous apartment according to the house book and registration card. The new owner does not pay utility bills, and all his debts are assigned to me. At the time of selling the apartment, all payments for housing and communal services were made on time by me.

Dear Valery, the registration authorities in cities, towns, rural settlements, closed military camps, as well as in settlements located in the border zone or closed administrative-territorial entities are the territorial bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. Contact the territorial department of the department with a complaint.

My son, in connection with the purchase of an apartment for himself, was discharged from our apartment through State Services two years ago, but when I received Form 9 at the present time, it turned out that he was still registered at his old place of residence. How can I remove it from registration at my old place of residence?

Dear Yulia, the new registration procedure does not provide for house books - they are not needed for registration or check-out from an apartment.

Please tell me, I applied through the State Services application to deregister a child (5 years old). In connection with the sale of an apartment. I was given a date and time for my appointment at the passport office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But when the child’s father and I came to the passport office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, we were refused admission. They said that we needed to go to the Department of Settlement and Registration of Citizens of the Frunzensky District. And there you need to write a statement. I just wasted my time and nerves. And I wasn't the only one. In front of me, the woman and her daughter were also not accepted, but they also wanted to deregister the child, and arranged the service through State Services. It turns out that the information on this service on the State Services website is incorrect. Why is this happening? Where is the mistake? Thank you in advance.

Dear Victoria, it is possible that the mechanism for deregistration through State Services has not been fully developed locally. Contact the portal hotline by phone, a specialist will clarify the possibility of deregistration through the passport office.

Dear Natalya, you can do this upon request from the consulate to deregister at your current address, since your permanent place of residence is confirmed in Germany in the specified city.

Basic methods of leaving an apartment
Method number 1. Extract and registration at a new place of residence/stay
Moving to another apartment can take place within the same city or in different ones. Transferring registration from one city to another is more difficult - it can take 2-3 months. Changing the address within one city is done automatically and takes from 14 to 30 days.
You can check out at your place of residence. This method is suitable for those who exchange or buy an apartment within the same city. The application must indicate the address of the current registration and the one where you will live.
The second type of this method is the so-called “extract on request”. A citizen applies to the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs after moving to his new address. Deregistration and registration at a new address will be done virtually simultaneously.
Procedure
The steps to carry out deregistration “on request” and registration in a new place are as follows:
- Appear at the territorial office of the Department of Migration and inform about your intention to change your registration address
- Fill out two applications No. 6 and submit them along with the documents to the registrar who is currently on duty
- At the time indicated by the registrar, come here and get your passport back with a ready-made stamp on the new registration
Everything is elementary simple! But in order for your application to be accepted the first time, it is important to have with you all the documents necessary for registration.
Required documents
To change registration when moving to another address, the following documents are required:
- Original all-Russian passport
- Completed application
- A document confirming the new address - an extract from the Unified State Register (for an apartment) or a house register (for a private house)
ATTENTION! Don't forget to get a certificate or coupon stating that you submitted your documents for registration. During the period when the deregistration/registration takes place, it will be given to you “instead of a passport” - after all, the passport itself will be taken away from you for registration.
Method No. 2 Extract without indicating a new address - “to nowhere”
This method is used when ex-spouses, tenants who do not have the right to living space, and debtors whose apartment is being sold by court decision are discharged from their apartment. You can also check out “to nowhere” yourself if you are planning to move to another city or country and do not yet know where you will live.
You can, of course, deregister later, “upon request,” but this will take more time. If you need to register at your place of study at a university or work as soon as possible after moving, it would be wise to register in advance.
ATTENTION! It is impossible to discharge minor children from an apartment at an unknown address if their parents are not discharged either. The basis for this is Article No. 54 of the RF IC, according to which children have the right to live together with their parents.
Procedure
It is virtually identical to what happens during the first deregistration method:
- Appear at the UVM, write a statement
- Submit it to the registrar
- Come pick up your passport on the day specified by the registrar
The only difference is that along with your passport, which will have a stamp indicating deregistration at your old address, you will be given a “Departure List” - a separate document stating that you are not registered anywhere.
Upon arrival at the place where you were going, it is important to register at least temporarily, without delaying it. If you do not have time to register within three months, you will be fined, according to Article No. 19.15.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation for living without registration. If you stay in the same city, you can be fined for lack of registration within 7 days.
Required documents
To check out “to nowhere” you will only need:
- Passport
- Completed application (form No. 6)
ATTENTION! Even if you are going to be discharged “to nowhere,” you may be required to fill out the “New address” column. This does not mean that the address should be exactly the one at which you will definitely register after moving. You can write any one you plan to stop at.
Method No. 3 Extract by power of attorney
Most legal procedures can be carried out through a representative by issuing a power of attorney for him with a notary. In theory, discharge is no exception. In practice, it is allowed only if there are serious, valid reasons.
Of course, you can issue a power of attorney if you wish, but registrars will most likely refuse to accept the application.
The “dislike” of registrars for powers of attorney is explained by the fact that previously in legal practice it was quite common for people (especially the elderly) to be discharged from an apartment by deception, under a general power of attorney. Currently, UVM is trying its best to eliminate such incidents. Valid reasons are:
- Military service
- Being in prison
- Disability or serious illness (in rare cases)
The power of attorney is drawn up and notarized at the place of residence of the principal. It must indicate “for deregistration.” Registrars will not accept powers of attorney with more vague wording.
Procedure
The deregistration procedure itself is identical to methods No. 1 and No. 2. But there are some features:
- You should first call your territorial Department of Internal Affairs and find out if they issue statements by power of attorney. You may have to appeal to a higher authority
- Having received an affirmative answer, you can issue a power of attorney
- Then everything happens the same as with the first and second methods.
Required documents
- Original passport
- Completed form No. 6
- A power of attorney drawn up in the required wording and certified by a notary
ATTENTION! After completing military service or completing a prison term, a citizen has the right to register at his previous address.
Method No. 4. Extract from the apartment on the State Services website
Unfortunately, it will not be possible to complete deregistration completely remotely - the passport must be stamped physically, personally by an authorized person. But this will require only one visit to the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and you can submit an application through the State Services portal.
To do this, you must register a personal account on the portal. And upload scanned documents into it. The application will be processed within three days, then the registrars will inform you by email or SMS where and when you need to appear to complete the procedure.
You will need to have the original documents that you attach to your application electronically with you.
Procedure
- Create a Personal Account
- Scan the required documents
- Using the interface of the State Services website, prepare the “Registration Accounting” page for work. The “path” to it is as follows: “Electronic - “Migration Service” - “Registration” - “Get a service” - consent to the processing of personal data.
- Fill out all the fields of the electronic application that appears in front of you, select the UVM branch closest to your home and click the “Submit Application” button
- Wait for the notification and go to the UVM. Your passport will be stamped when you arrive there and present the original documents.
Required documents
The list is the same as with the previous methods. Electronic and original documents must be identical. If registrars find a discrepancy in them, deregistration or registration will be refused.
