Registration at the place of stay: how much does temporary registration cost?

Permanent registration at the place of residence is one of the main aspects of modern realities, which every person needs. This is due to the fact that without it it is impossible to use your rights and obligations. But today there is the right to apply for temporary registration, which in its legal status is equal to permanent. Its only difference is that it is issued only for a certain period designated by the state. This raises the question of how it needs to be formalized and how much temporary registration costs.

Why is temporary registration needed?

According to the legislation of the Russian Federation, when staying on its territory for more than 90 days, citizens must obtain temporary registration. The reasons why the number of days spent in the state may be increased, for example, may be:

• work under an employment contract;
• obtaining education at Russian universities;
• the need to obtain documents that are issued only if you have a place of residence - this is a passport, tax identification number, driver’s license;
• registering a child for preschool or school;
• receiving social assistance, such as medical care;
• marriage;
• military registration.

There are still many reasons that require such a document. But at this time, employment in the Russian Federation is still considered one of the main reasons.

Temporary registration makes it possible to stay in another place of residence, but this is in no way related to the fact that it is necessary to deregister at the place of primary residence.

Why do you need temporary registration in Moscow?

It is important to understand that temporary registration is the registration of a person in the place where he currently lives. The execution of such a document does not cancel the fact of your permanent registration outside Moscow. A citizen of the Russian Federation, the CIS or any other party is simply attached to a specific address for the period that will be specified in the certificate. The document gives the right to official residence at the address specified in it.

Worries about having temporary registration in Moscow without a permanent one are groundless. The fact is that both forms are equally legitimate, so you can easily live in the capital, having the full rights and opportunities of a Muscovite.

If the purpose of your visit to the capital is not tourism, and you plan to stay here for more than 90 days for citizens of the Russian Federation and more than a week for others, you must make a temporary registration in Moscow.

What exactly is the document for? There are several reasons to obtain temporary registration. But they all boil down to the fact that only if you have a document can you legally reside in the capital, having the rights and opportunities of native Muscovites.

Let's summarize. The certificate gives the following bonuses to its owners:

• possibility of official employment. This means that all vacancies in the capital are open to you, including good, highly paid positions. Without temporary registration in Moscow, all you can count on is low-paid work as a laborer. And such a position will be difficult to find, since by hiring you, the employer will break the law and will have to pay a fine. This is the price for breaking the law;
• you can send your children to an educational institution. Both schools and kindergartens first accept children registered in the area where they are located. The rest are accepted only if there are places left. But the reality is that there may be no places left, and you will have to take your child across the city to the kindergarten or school where a place has been found for you;
• you can start a business. Anyone who wants to open their own business needs to understand that registration is impossible without registration;
• you will have access to all government benefits and benefits that are available to other Muscovites;
• you can submit an application to the bank for a loan. For a mortgage this will be a significant advantage;
• you will be able to attach to a state clinic, which means you will significantly save on paid medicine;
• you will be able to study at a university;
• you will be able to get a driver’s license, which even after successfully completing a driving school is not given without registration;
• you will be able to get a Schengen visa and visa directly in the capital, and not at your place of permanent residence;
• if you live in the capital officially, you will not have to pay for housing and communal services where you are registered on a permanent basis.

In a word, you receive all the rights and benefits of native Muscovites, without having temporary registration in Moscow or the Moscow region.

Which bodies are responsible for registering citizens?

To obtain temporary residence, you must contact the relevant authorities. These are such as:

1. State Services Portal. It is possible to submit the relevant documents via the Internet. But if you register on this site, you must take into account that for this you will need to attach a sheet of statistical records. As well as an arrival address sheet (registration is for a year only).
2. Arrival department. The guest is given the opportunity to fill out a registration card, which will be an official document, which allows him to stay in the territory of the state for a designated period of time legally.

Often the time to prepare such a document is approximately 1-3 days, but the allotted period can be about 7-8 days. This is due to the fact that the applicant did not provide a social lease agreement or a certificate of ownership, and this may slightly delay the registration procedure.

How to fill out the application correctly?

Before you begin to independently fill out an application for registration at your place of residence, you need to familiarize yourself with the rules for its preparation.

So, first of all, you need to download a form on the Internet , following which you can avoid making mistakes.

Also remember that you should print the application on your computer if possible. Next, you should use black or blue ink if you are writing such a document by hand.

In the application for temporary registration, you must provide your passport details, be sure to indicate why you need temporary registration , whether you have the consent of the owner, and also indicate the address at which you want to register.

Remember that the information you provide must exactly repeat the information from the attached documents. The discrepancy will be sent for revision, which will slightly increase the time frame for obtaining registration.

Forms

There are three forms of registration at the place of stay. Each of these forms is issued in a special case , which is provided for by internal rules.

1. The first form relates to an application for registration at the place of residence, and is a kind of appeal to a government body with a request to carry out such an action.
2. The second form is a kind of extract form, which is given to a person who has gone through the registration procedure so that he appears at the passport office to pick up the finished documents.
3. Form number 3 is a certificate that has its own exclusive number of the certificate of registration at the place of residence. This certificate indicates when the document was issued, to whom, and most importantly, for what specific period.

Features of receiving

Information about the place of registration is entered into the main document confirming the person’s identity. There are special pages in the passport for this purpose. But if there is a need to stay in another city or town for longer than the allotted period, then you will definitely need to obtain a temporary registration.

The peculiarity of non-permanent registration is that it is issued for a certain period. The legislation specifies the maximum period for which such a certificate is issued, namely 5 years. Often relatives ask for temporary registration for a maximum period. As for the minimum period, there is no period as such, but generally it is 3 months.

This document allows a temporarily registered citizen to fully enjoy his rights and obligations as designated by the state. But there are still limitations, they are that:

1. Registration, limited in time, does not give the right to claim residential space in which to live for the specified period.
2. You cannot apply for permanent residence on the basis of temporary registration.
3. It is not possible to carry out any actions in relation to the living space, that is, sell, donate, rent without the consent of the owner.

In addition, special features include the fact that a non-permanent registration can be issued if:

• it is necessary to place the child in kindergarten or school;
• if you need to obtain a driver's license or TIN, then your place of residence must be within the city;
• for employment you will need to look for a rented apartment in the city, in the suburbs or, possibly, in the region, but provided that you can get to the place of work freely;
• the place of residence must correspond to reality. Because it's very easy to check. For example, employees of the registration authority can check the actual address of temporary registration or this can be done through the relevant authorities;
• the main fact is that the consent of the owner of the housing provided, as well as all persons who live on these square meters, will be required. This could be relatives or someone who already lives there.

It is also worth noting that for many it sometimes comes as a surprise that instead of one person you need to register two. This is due to the fact that, according to the law, a minor child is registered automatically. That is, if the parents are temporarily registered at another place of residence, then the child who has not reached 18 years of age also receives the appropriate registration at the specified address.

For how long can a certificate of temporary registration in Moscow be issued?

The length of your stay may vary. Registration depends on how long you plan to live at a particular address. Theoretically, it can be issued for at least a month, but usually the minimum period of time is three months.

There are many conditions. For example, you have drawn up a rental agreement for 4 months, which means you can no longer make a temporary registration for six months or a year. Under a social tenancy agreement, the maximum period of time is 6 months.

Another important point is the purpose of temporary registration. For example, you need to enroll your child in school, then it is enough that the certificate is valid on the day of enrollment. The situation with labor relations is completely different. If your registration period is three months, the employer will not be able to issue an employment contract with you for a year or another period exceeding three months.

Entrepreneurs also need to plan for long periods of time. It is better to immediately buy a temporary registration for 5 years, this is the maximum possible period.

Other time periods are available for foreign citizens. They can receive a certificate for only a year, and even then for a reason, but if they have an employment contract for the entire period. Otherwise, temporary residence registration will have to be issued for a shorter period.

How the procedure works

To obtain temporary registration, you must register with the relevant registration authority. To do this, you will need to indicate the place of actual residence in the application, and when drawing up such a document, the presence of the owner who provides housing must be required. In the process of signing the document, you will need to clarify for how long registration will be required, how many people will be registered, and whether all residents agree that one more person will join them.

After completing all the papers, the registration authorities check the data within 1-8 days. If all the information is in perfect order, then a written notification is sent to the owner of the residential premises that provides temporary residence that this or that person lives at his address. And the applicant, in turn, receives a special certificate, which is an official document that confirms his presence in the territory of the state legally.

In which residential premises can I register?

Registration is only possible in residential premises. At the same time, the house should not be designated for demolition, that is, recognized as dilapidated.

The easiest option is to register with relatives, since obtaining registration in Moscow in this case will not be difficult. Because the consent of relatives and their participation in registration will significantly reduce problems for those who come to the capital. However, despite the fact that Moscow is a metropolis, not everyone has relatives living there, so we have to resort to other forms:

• renting housing from the owners;
• from legal entities that can provide residential premises, for example, to specialists who come specifically to work in a company or firm;
• housing cooperatives, if its members agree to this.

Temporary registration in all of these options can be obtained, but the most difficult is an agreement with homeowners. It is also the most common for those who have Russian citizenship.

What is required for registration

If a citizen living on the territory of the Russian Federation in one city needs to go to another, for example, to get a job, in order to do this, registration at the place of residence will be required, since this is one of the main requirements of the enterprise. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain temporary registration in the region where this organization is located. In such situations, the question arises where to go and how much temporary registration in another city costs.

The Main Department of Migration Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (FMS) is responsible for the preparation of documents relating to the registration of citizens for a certain period of time. To obtain such a permit, you will need to provide the appropriate package of documents, namely:

• passport, where personal data is indicated;
• housing rental agreement;
• provide evidence that all residents are not against his residence;
• birth certificate of children if they are under 14 years of age. If the age is older, then they write an application for a temporary certificate on their own;
• certificate of arrival on the territory of Russia. It should be filled out in triplicate;
• Citizens who are planning to find a job must provide an original or a copy of their employment contract.

Registration of residence for a certain period occurs in the presence of all parties, namely: the owner, the registration authority and the applicant. All this is documented in writing, indicating the length of stay. For a document to come into force, it must be registered either with a notary or directly with the body responsible for the temporary registration of citizens.

What documents will be needed?

Let's talk about what documents may be needed when registering . It is worth saying that you need to collect a fairly large folder, so treat this point with maximum attention.

1. First of all, you need to attach your passport .
2. In addition, you must write an application either at home or at a government agency.
3. You must also provide a document indicating that the owner is not against you registering in his home. This can be an A4 sheet with permission written by hand on it.
4. Next, you need to provide documents, or copies thereof, that indicate that the owner really is. These are the title documents for real estate.
5. It is also necessary to provide passport details of the owner.

They may also require other papers that, one way or another, may be necessary on an individual basis.

How much does registration cost?

As for residence for a certain period, it is registered at the local Main Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which exercises control over arriving migrants in Russia. Therefore, all necessary documentation must be submitted to this authority. But there are also special institutions that have the legal right to carry out temporary registration of citizens.

Regarding registration of stay on the territory of the Russian Federation for a certain number of days with the Federal Migration Service, it is carried out free of charge for Russian citizens. But foreigners will have to pay a state fee, which is 200 rubles.

If you contact the registration authorities, you will have to pay the cost of the services provided. But how much does it cost to register in such organizations, and how legal is it? Due to the fact that such a document is made by registration institutions, it is worth knowing that there is no fixed price for everyone. Therefore, the price varies directly from the city and region. The highest cost is expected in large cities, and for example, in the provinces such a service will cost much less. Price examples are as follows:

• for 3 months - you can register in an apartment from 400 to 800 rubles. To a private house - about 1000 rubles;
• for 6 months - in an apartment-type dormitory - 800 rubles. For registration of living space in the private sector it can be 1900 rubles;
• for 1 year - in an apartment the cost can be 10,000 rubles, and in a dormitory - 1,000 rubles. This difference is due to the amount of utility payments, which are often included in the amount of services provided.

Considering that the cost of temporary registration depends on certain factors, for example, the location of the city, district and even seasonality, the price can vary significantly. For comparison, in Moscow, temporary registration for 3 months ranges from 600 to 800 rubles. For 6 months - from 800 to 8,000 rubles, and for a year from 1,000 to 16,000 rubles.

But it is worth considering the fact that there is no clear answer to the question of how much temporary registration costs, since it is negotiated depending on the cost of paying for utilities. The greater the number of registered residents in the territory of an apartment or residential building, the higher the payment for the provided utilities. Therefore, when signing a lease agreement, it is necessary to find out how many people are registered at that moment.

When does it need to be renewed?

A foreign citizen has the right to renew registration under a patent immediately after making the next advance payment. In order to carry out his plans in a timely manner, he must contact the territorial body of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation no later than 3 days before the end of the paid period. The given time period is calculated in working days, excluding weekends and holidays.

Important! All territorial divisions of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation operate on a six-day working week, that is, with one day off on Sunday.

Penalties

Registration at the place of residence is mandatory for everyone, regardless of whether they are citizens of the Russian Federation or foreigners. But persons coming from other countries must register with the Federal Migration Service within 7 days from the moment of crossing the border. If this is not done, then you will have to pay a fine for such a violation. In addition, penalties are imposed not only on citizens who do not have temporary registration, but also on persons who provide living space to such violators. For example, for 2017 the amount is:

• persons who are on the territory of the state without temporary registration are required to pay a fine in the amount of 2,000 to 3,000 rubles;
• owners of residential premises who provide housing to persons not registered in accordance with the legislation on compulsory registration for a certain period will be fined in the amount of 2,000 to 5,000 rubles;
• if the owner of the residential premises is an organization, the amount of the fine can range from 50,000 to 800,000 rubles. Of course, these amounts are not comparable to the cost of temporary registration.

Fines and punishments for lack of registration

If there are two violations within a year, the person faces deportation from the Russian Federation, cancellation of the temporary residence permit and an entry ban for up to 5 years. This decision can only be made by a court.

You should not delay obtaining a permanent place of registration, otherwise this will threaten you with extremely undesirable consequences.

Nuances that may arise after registration

Sometimes situations arise when the new guest turns out to be not a completely decent person, and the owner of the living space wants to evict him before the end of the term. It is worth taking into account the fact that he can do this only on the basis of a court decision. Therefore, in the event of conflict situations involving residents with temporary registration, it is first necessary to discuss this situation with them. If temporarily sheltered residents refuse to do this on a voluntary basis, then it is worth going to court.

But the conflict situation can be resolved without trial. This is due to the fact that after the period specified in the temporary registration certificate, it is automatically canceled. That is, you do not need to go to the authorities that deal with registration and registration and write an application. Such a need arises only when a temporary resident needs to leave earlier than the designated period.

If the temporary registration period has expired, it can be extended. To do this, you will need to go again with the documents to the MFS and write an application. If the owner of the housing provided and those living in the area do not mind, then the registration will be extended for the required period.

How to register via email

Until now, the option of registration through personal submission of documents has been considered. But you can also submit papers via mail in the same way. This method is as reliable as personal contact. However, it must be taken into account that everything must be done within the specified time frame, otherwise the sender faces a fine.

A regular package of documents is collected and sent through the post office to the Ministry of Internal Affairs:

• An arrival and registration sheet for 9 months must be present, but only if the transfer is issued to the recipient;
• when such a document arrives at the specified address, it is checked by employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and if everything is fine with it, then they are obliged to send a notification to the sender within 3 days.

  You can submit documents for belt registration through Russian Post

In the event that any documents are missing or they are completed incorrectly, the passport office employees are also obliged to notify the citizen about this. To receive a ready-made passport with temporary registration, its owner comes in person, having received a notification about it.

Grounds for refusal

Not very often, but situations arise that the authorities involved in registration and registration may refuse to issue such a document. The reasons may include facts such as:

• refusal of the owner to provide temporary housing;
• the person has a shift work method;
• the presence of a citizen in places designated for the application of administrative penalties;
• the person has dangerous diseases;
• if a person does not have a specific place of residence.

To avoid a refusal, you should eliminate the existing factors and prepare all the necessary documents, as well as obtain the owner’s consent to provide housing for a certain period.

Documents required to obtain registration under a temporary residence permit

Before visiting the MFC, you need to prepare a package of documents that meets the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation. First of all, you need to contact a translator to purchase a translation of your passport into Russian and have it notarized.

You also need to have a certificate of decision on granting a temporary residence permit, a receipt for payment of the state fee (can be paid on the spot) and, if necessary, 2 photographs measuring 3x4 (not required in all MFCs).

The homeowner will be required to provide a document confirming ownership of the apartment (certificate) and an identity document.
