What documents you need to have on hand for this procedure, where to go and what the sequence of actions is - you will find out further.
This procedure is required. It should not be neglected, if only because it is a direct violation of the law of the Russian Federation: a long stay in a populated area by a citizen without registration is an administrative violation and faces a fine.
And if in most cities you will have to pay from 2 to 3 thousand rubles, then in Moscow or St. Petersburg the amount will increase due to federal significance.
But for residents of the Moscow and Leningrad regions, temporary registration is not required to live in Moscow and St. Petersburg, respectively.
Even after paying a fine, the citizen is not relieved of the obligation to obtain a temporary registration in accordance with the rules.
List of documents for registration at the place of stay
Applying for temporary registration is not so difficult: at least you will not encounter unforeseen difficulties, since the procedure is quite simple :
- The first thing you need to do is contact the nearest FMS office and provide an application drawn up in form No. 1 (This form can be either filled out at the department or downloaded electronically).
- Collect the following package of documents:
- Statements from the owner/tenant of the place where you are going to register;
- Consent of the guardianship and trusteeship authorities (if among the owners of the premises there are children under 14 years of age);
- Lease/lease agreement or any other document that will serve as the basis for temporary registration;
- Written consent of each of the owners of the premises.
If your place of stay is not a residential premises, but a sanatorium/boarding house/hotel/hospital/camping, etc., then for temporary registration only an identification document (passport, etc.) will be sufficient.
One of the list of documents that can serve as the basis for registration is a written statement from the owner of the living space, written in any form. Mandatory points in the document are the date and signature of the person filling it out.

And in this case, the owner must be present during the registration procedure, having with him this application, a passport of the Russian Federation, an extract from the house register (if available) and a document confirming the right to living space.
If the apartment is owned by more than one person, then the above requirements also apply to the other owners.
You can stay in a locality without registration for no more than three months - after this period, be sure to contact the FMS department or another authority that can transfer your package of documents to the FMS for registration.
They are:
- Centers for the provision of government and other services;
- HOA - homeowners' association;
- Management bodies of housing and other cooperatives.
It will be easier, faster and more reliable to contact the branch in person.
As a last resort, the current registration system provides for postal and electronic (through a multifunctional government services portal) applications. However, the time frame for obtaining registration in this case will be increased from 3 to 8 working days.
There are regulations of the Federal Migration Service, which precisely indicate the nuances of the procedure, the exact timing during which it will be carried out, as well as the duration of the following stages of registration:
- The queue for an appointment with consultants should be no more than 30 minutes.
- Obtaining the necessary documents, as well as submitting missing certificates/applications – 10 minutes.
- Waiting in line, subject to prior registration, is no more than 15 minutes.

Rights of a registered person
Some property owners are afraid to give permission for registration at an address even to close people, believing that they are thereby transferring their rights to housing. But from a legal point of view, a person living in the premises has the right:
- stay in it for the specified time (with temporary registration);
- use property;
- draw up legal documents to obtain benefits or subsidies;
- triple to work;
- send your child to kindergarten or school;
- register your minor child.
As for ownership of a house or apartment, registration does not give it. The exception is cases of living in municipal housing.
The state may allow a person to privatize the premises, provided that he is not the owner of another living space.
Important: simply put, the tenant cannot dispose of the property, that is, sell it, exchange it or donate it. Therefore, the owners of the premises have nothing to worry about.
If you do not have permanent residence
There are situations when a citizen, without permanent registration in his hometown, moves to another locality.
The registration process will remain virtually unchanged. Unless you need to add one more document to the list - a certificate of departure from your last place of residence.
If you do not have such a sheet, contact the same FMS department, and the employees will provide it to you, requesting a document based on your passport. True, in this case the procedure will not take the standard three days, but a little longer.

When is the owner's permission for registration required?
A citizen does not have the right to register in a living space without the permission of the owner. The law allows the owner to register at his address not only relatives and friends, but even strangers and foreigners. If there are more than one homeowners, consent to registration is required from everyone.
The exception is registration of minors. A child does not need permission from the owner to live with his parents. The rule of observing the number of living meters per person per child also does not apply.
As for a newborn whose parents do not live together, the mother’s consent to registration is required.
Does the registration period depend on the property owner?
The time for which you are granted temporary registration depends on the owner of the premises where you plan to live.
The law does not limit the period of registration, and everything is regulated by a voluntary agreement between you and the party providing housing.
If you accidentally lost your temporary registration certificate, contact the FMS again (the same department to which you submitted the application), and you will be given a duplicate.

general information
What are the rules for registration of foreign nationals on the territory of the Russian Federation? A foreigner must be registered on the basis of the provisions set out in Articles 14-19 of the Federal Law adopted on July 19, 2009, No. 199-FZ.
In Part 2, he announces the procedure for registration at the place of residence of persons arriving from abroad and stateless persons. And also - an earlier document, Federal Law of the Russian Federation dated June 17, 2006, No. 109-FZ.
It states that foreigners who have been staying for a long time within the Russian Federation , living on a temporary or permanent basis in Russia, are required to report to the branches of the Federal Migration Service the address at which the guest (and other) invitation was received when registering in the place intended for their residence.
This provision especially applies to those of them who have purchased real estate in the capital or in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation in the form of apartments, private houses and other objects managed by the Housing Fund .
The presence of property determines the obligation to register. If there are several objects, registration allows one of the addresses of choice, the remaining objects are tied to the designated address as the property of a person registered in the cadastral register and included in the records of the State Real Estate Cadastre (GKN).
Migration services of the Russian Federation act as intermediaries between persons legally present in the state and those arriving from abroad.
The legal capacity of foreigners is determined through a designated institution. It inspects and supervises this type of population, adapting it to the civil legal relations allowed for the persons inhabiting the territory.
