Application for a passport replacement in 2021: filling out the form

Which authorities should I contact?

The application is processed by the GUVM department (formerly the FMS).
There, the passport is issued in person and documents are verified. Any other methods are only variants of the main one using intermediaries. Important! Lack of registration is not a basis for refusing to accept an application.
You need to go directly to the department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs if the document has been lost. In this case, it will be immediately entered into the database and, if necessary, a temporary identity card will be issued.

A timely application to the passport department can protect you from serious troubles such as applying for consumer loans or registering several fictitious companies on your passport.

In less problematic cases, the request can be sent through the MFC or the State Services website. The advantages of the centers are that there are no queues and no connection to the place of registration; the state portal allows you to apply for a replacement directly from home, leaving one visit to the passport office to verify documents and issue a new passport.

Required documents

According to the Regulations on the Passport of a Citizen of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to submit a certain package of documentation, including:

statement;
previous document (for example, damaged, outdated identity card, birth certificate);
2 photos;
registration act.

An application for a replacement passport is submitted to the FMS with a package of documentation.

Advice! You can submit an application through the government services portal. Which saves a lot of time.

When the documents submitted digitally are reviewed, you will be informed when and where to come for the final issuance of your passport.

Where to apply for a replacement

Form 1P can be obtained from the GUVM office, MFC or filled out online. In addition to the application form itself, you will need an old passport (if you have one) and two standard photographs. The forms are free and issued by institutional employees.

Important! Additional documents, such as a passport or birth certificate, are required only in exceptional cases.

If the applicant is unable to visit the GUVM department due to health problems, he must submit a request for a visit to the passport office in a written form. After examination, a migration service employee will visit the patient and help him submit documents at home.

International passport fingerprints

Citizens of the Russian Federation have the right to choose - a passport with a validity period of 5 years or a new biometric passport with a validity period of 10 years. Since 2015, when applying for a biometric passport, fingerprints of the index fingers of both hands are taken. Fingerprints are taken from persons over 12 years of age. It is impossible to refuse fingerprinting and obtain a passport valid for 10 years. Without fingerprints, it is only possible to issue an old-style international passport, valid for 5 years.

Application forms

The forms of form No. 1P in their pure form look like this:

Reasons for refusal

There are a number of reasons why a passport may be refused. These include:

The applicant has not reached the age of 14 years,
The attached photos do not meet the requirements,
The teenager does not have Russian citizenship,
The identity of the applicant has not been established,
The teenager already has a passport that was issued earlier,
Non-payment of state duty, or lack of information about its payment in the GIS GMP information system,
The application does not fully contain the required information,
Inaccurate information was found in the application.

If denied, you will receive a notification that you can appeal.

Application forms

There are four main reasons for applying to the GUVM for a new passport:

The document is unsuitable for further intended use;
Change of surname or first name;
Radical changes in appearance;
Reaching 14/20/45 years.

Each option has its own characteristics.

Wear and mechanical damage

A passport is considered damaged if key entries, marks or stamps in it have become unreadable. A document with lost pages or traces of exposure to fire or water must be replaced. Any notes or recordings not provided for by law are also prohibited.

Important! Russian legislation in fact does not distinguish between the loss and wear of a document, so sometimes it is easier to file a claim for the loss of a passport than to bring paper that has been worn out in the washing machine for a replacement.

Change of full name

A citizen of Russia has the right to change his name, surname and patronymic upon reaching the age of majority. Despite the opportunity, it is rarely used directly. The vast majority of replacements are associated with a change of surname upon marriage, in rare cases - upon adoption of a child who has reached the age of 14.

Let's look at the simplest example. Replacement due to marriage

Change in appearance

Despite the fact that, according to modern research, appearance changes little after 20 and 45 years, there are exceptions to every rule. If you change your appearance partially or completely, you will also have to take a new document.

Mismatch between photo and real face

Reaching 14/20/45 years

Planned measure upon expiration of a standard period. This type of replacement represents the bulk of the workload for the passport office, so all three examples will be shown here.

What to do if you make a mistake

If there is an error in the application, there is no need to try to forward or cross out the incorrect lines; this will only lead to wasted time and a decrease in the chances of the application being accepted.

If a mistake has already been made, you need to write the application again. If you submit an application with an error, you must contact the passport office again to correct it.

The worst situation that can occur in the event of an erroneous application is that the citizen will still be issued a passport, but with the wrong last name or the child’s first name. In this case, it is best to immediately re-apply for a replacement, getting away with losing a couple of weeks and an additional fee.

The exchange and issuance of passports is one of the most common procedures performed by passport office employees. Most problems that arise are resolved by GUVM specialists on the spot, without additional delays.

conclusions

The provision of indigenous citizenship of the Russian Federation to foreigners is carried out by authorized bodies acting in strict accordance with the provisions of regulatory legal acts in the field of regulating issues of citizenship. The main document confirming the will of a citizen of another country to change his nationality is an application form for registration of citizenship. The specified form is filled out personally by the applicant, and entering incomplete or inaccurate data into it may be considered grounds for refusing to issue a national Russian passport.
