Is it possible to register a child in a privatized apartment without the consent of the residents?
There are frequent cases when situations arise in which parents want to register a child in a privatized apartment, but the residents are against it.

Basic provisions
A minor child under 14 years of age cannot be registered alone. Where the mother or father is registered, the children also need to register there. The rule is established by clause 2 of Art. 20 of the Civil Code.
You need to fill out an application, attach your passport and birth documents for your children. Approval from the father may be required when the parents are divorced or live in different apartments.
Between themselves, the mother and father decide which of them will register the child in the apartment. If agreement is not reached, the dispute is referred to the court.
Children's rights are protected by law. It doesn’t matter whether the square footage of the apartment allows you to register one more tenant, and what other owners think about it. No one can stop you from registering your child.
If there has been no privatization, the rights of the child must be taken into account when transferring housing into private ownership. The children's share is highlighted.
