In the early 1990s, Russia abolished a legacy of the Soviet past - registration in the passport, which had existed in the country for more than 70 years. This was received enthusiastically by Russians as a rejection of the encroachment on freedom of movement. But practice has shown that society is not yet ready for such a radical update, especially in conditions of social payments, medical care and other benefits being linked to registration. Registration was replaced by registration (although people continue to stubbornly call it registration) with a gradual transformation of its permissive nature into a notification one.
The most important document of a Russian citizen is a Russian passport.
The Russian passport is the main one in the Russian Federation. The Government of the Russian Federation, by its resolution No. 828 dated July 8, 1997, obliges all Russian citizens aged 14 years or more who reside in the country to have a Russian passport.
The document is a small book of 20 pages. The dark red cover is embossed with the coat of arms of the Russian Federation and the inscriptions:
- above the coat of arms - “Russian Federation”;
- under the coat of arms - “Passport”.
The document contains, in addition to the number, series, date of issue and name of the authority that issued it, the owner’s personal data: full name, gender, birth information and other data, including place of residence, military registration, etc.
A single sample document has been adopted for all subjects of the Federation; The republics are entitled to supplement it with an insert, which is agreed upon with the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Heraldic Council of the Russian Federation and duplicates it in the national language. , and his and .
We recommend that you learn more about the procedure for obtaining and replacing it.
How to register in a private house
If a private house is located in the city, then to register you can contact a passport officer, who can be found at the management company servicing the house. In the case of country houses, after registering a private house, you need to contact the local administration performing the functions of the Federal Migration Service or the passport office to obtain registration.
Documents for registration in a private house:
- Statement.
- Permission from the owner, if this is someone else's house, or a certificate confirming ownership, wishing to obtain registration.
- Passport.
- Birth certificate for children.
- Title documents for the house.
There is no registration in the passport: what the law says
Many citizens, including foreigners who wish to live in Russia for any reason, are wondering whether registration in the passport is required and, if so, how long one can legally live without it.
First of all, it is necessary to determine what Russian legislation says about this. The main regulations that citizens or stateless persons need to rely on or navigate in matters related to registration and passport regime are:
- Decree of the President of the Russian Federation No. 232 of March 13, 1997;
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 828 of 07/08/1997 (“Regulations on the Passport of the Russian Federation”);
- Administrative regulations on the issuance and replacement of passports (annex to the order of the Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation No. 391 of November 30, 2012);
- Administrative regulations on registration of Russian citizens (appendix to FMS order No. 288 of September 11, 2012);
- Law of the Russian Federation No. 5242-I of June 25, 1993 on freedom of movement, choice of place of residence in the Russian Federation;
- Rules for registration of citizens of the Russian Federation at the place of residence and stay (Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 713 of July 17, 1995);
- Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation (Article 19.15.1).
Obviously, citizens of the Russian Federation must, and from 2 to 3 thousand rubles. (in Moscow and St. Petersburg - from 3 to 5 thousand rubles).
Art. 3 of Law No. 5242-I stipulates that the lack of registration cannot become a reason for the loss of the rights and freedoms of citizens of the Russian Federation. Clause 26.4 of the regulations requires asking applicants who have applied for or to confirm their registration at the place of residence (with the clause “if any”).
There is some duality: citizens are required to have registration, but on the other hand, it may not exist. The question of whether a passport is valid without registration worries many.
The realities of life are full of various conflicts that you should navigate well: different periods are allocated for the registration of different categories of Russian citizens, not to mention stateless persons or foreigners who live in the Russian Federation. In what cases can registration be missing?
How long can you live without registration at your new place of residence?
The sale of an apartment or your own house means the termination of the rights to use them of the previous owner and his family (Article 292 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation). This implies . The legislation does not establish within what time frame this should take place; therefore, the procedure can take a long time.
Therefore, a practice has developed when a clause is included (with the signatures of both parties) regarding the timing of the removal from the apartment of the previous owner and members of his family. If there are minor children in the family, then the situation with their discharge is different: permission from the guardianship and trusteeship authorities to sell an apartment if there are children registered in it without providing them with a new place of residence in compliance with all standards (sanitary and other) cannot be obtained. Therefore, the issue of new registration of children must be resolved before the sale of housing.
A period of three days has been established for consideration of an application for deregistration of the former owner of the apartment. After discharge, you must register at your new place of residence within a week. Before the expiration of the 7-day period, no penalties can be imposed.
How long after discharge do you need to register at your new place of residence?
The legislation clearly establishes the time frame within which it is necessary to register - no more than seven days from the date of arrival at the new place of residence. Registration authorities must review the submitted documents and register the applicant within three days.
In the event that the locality does not change, the countdown begins from the moment of deregistration. In other cases, in order to prove to migration authorities that the allotted deadlines for registration have not been exceeded, you need to have travel documents with you, as well as confirmation of residence rights (ownership or lease).
Moving to a new place of residence in another city
When changing place of residence or moving to another city, the algorithm of actions is similar: registration at the new place must occur within the same time frame, the applicant must provide the same documents to the registration authority (including travel tickets, if necessary, confirm the date of arrival).
The optimal solution for registration in another city would be automatic deregistration upon registration at a new place of residence.
To do this, you need to have an agreement with the new owner of the former apartment. While in another city, you should:
- Appear at the territorial registration authority with a passport and an extract from the Unified State Register of Registered Registration Registers for the right to own an apartment, a purchase and sale agreement or a rental agreement. In the latter case, the presence of all adult participants in the transaction is necessary;
- submit a completed application with a request to register at the specified address, documents for real estate and a tear-off coupon for deregistration from the previous place of residence, consent of the Property Management Department (if registering in municipal housing not with close relatives);
- get a passport instead (valid for 30 days) and wait for the results;
After a request for an extract has been sent, the procedures for its consideration and decision have been made, the applicant will be sent a written notification that the extract and registration are ready. After this, you need to go and exchange your temporary ID for a passport with registration.
Periods of registration at the place of stay
Russian citizens who live outside their place of permanent residence for more than 90 days must register at their place of residence (without deregistration).
Foreigners who come to the Russian Federation for one reason or another also need to register at their address. In accordance with the Law of the Russian Federation No. 109-FZ and the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 9 of January 15, 2007, foreigners who have received or issued a visa must register their residence within seven days.
For CIS citizens (for example, from Ukraine), who have the right to visa-free entry into Russia and received a migration card at the entrance, it is also advisable to register within 7 days (although they can stay in the Russian Federation for 90 days without registration), submit and then register according to place of residence.
Individual cases: birth of a child and discharge “to nowhere”
In the event that a child is born to citizens registered at the place of residence, after receiving it, he can be registered at the same address as the parents (the permission of the landlord or other residents in this case is not necessary). This will give the child the opportunity to apply for social programs, a queue for kindergarten, etc. The deadlines remain the same.
Sometimes in practice there are statements “to nowhere”. A citizen is selling an apartment, but he will have his own home in a year or two. In this case, he writes a personal application to be discharged from his old address, and will live with relatives, friends or acquaintances.
A number of categories - missing persons, deceased citizens, as well as those who are serving in the Armed Forces, serving a sentence or have lost the right to reside at a given address, also fall into this category.
How long can you live without registration in your passport without breaking the law?
Residence without a permanent residence stamp in the passport will be considered legal if the seven-day period for submission and documents is not exceeded. After submitting an application, it can be reviewed from three to eight days (excluding weekends and holidays).
If you move to another city, this period may be increased:
- at the time of moving from the place of previous residence;
- while waiting for a response to a request from the registration authority from the place of previous residence. The wait can last from several days to a month, and the applicant will use a temporary certificate.
Thus, the applicant can live without a residence permit without violating the law for 8 to 30 days or more, depending on the circumstances.
If there is a confirmed valid reason (purchase of housing - sales contract, business trip - travel certificate, hospital treatment - certificate), this period can be extended.
As for the period of registration at the place of stay, it is 90 days. A situation is possible when a citizen can move to another place on the 89th day and live there for another 89 days without registration, and so on.
What is required for registration?
To register, a citizen does not require any special knowledge or skills. The main thing is that there are two most important factors:
- Place for registration - temporary or permanent.
- Required documents for registration.
When choosing a place of registration, the permission of the property owner is important.
If we are talking about a municipal apartment, then the procedure becomes more complicated, since you will need to obtain permission from all residents registered on its territory, and sometimes also from local authorities. Owners of a privatized apartment must provide a certificate of ownership of the property.
The list of required documents includes:
- Passports of the registered person and the owner of the property.
- A document indicating ownership, such as a sales contract.
- When registering for a municipal apartment, permission from all registered residents.
- Birth certificates of children, if minors under 14 years of age are also registered.
- Departure sheet, if the person registered has previously checked out from the previous address.
In addition, an application for registration is written. The registration procedure in the Russian Federation is absolutely free, so no receipts for payment of state fees will be required.
There is nowhere to register: how possible is a full life in this case?
To understand why registration in a passport is needed, it will be enough just to name a few reasons why a person’s life without registration can turn into complete hell, and solving simple everyday problems into pressing and intractable problems.
Restrictions on obtaining credits and loans
In order to be able to obtain a loan or credit from a bank, permanent registration is required. Many banks may additionally require borrowers to have permanent residence in the region where the bank itself is located.
Registration at the place of residence (temporary) will allow you to take out a loan, provided that your passport contains a stamp indicating permanent registration in another region. If this is not the case, then at best the loan will be issued for a period that will not exceed the duration of the temporary registration.
In this case, there is a way out for Sberbank clients who participate in salary projects and pensioners who receive payments on cards. Such categories can receive a consumer loan without a time limit.
It should be noted that credit restrictions are not the worst thing that can happen if you don’t have a registration date in your passport.
Lack of access to social programs, services and paperwork
Particularly serious consequences in the absence of registration in the passport will be felt when it is necessary to apply for social benefits or obtain the necessary document. Practice shows that without registration in the passport it will be impossible to:
- apply for medical services (we are not talking about emergency medical care), register for medical services at a local clinic, obtain a health insurance policy;
- design ;
- register with the tax office;
- get a well-paid job;
- obtain a driver's license;
- register the car;
- apply for a pension;
- receive social benefits;
- register your child for kindergarten or school.
In addition, we should not forget that a meeting with law enforcement officials may result in a fine for living without registration.
Confirmation of registration
The majority of citizens have a negative attitude towards the need for registration.
This attitude is understandable and justified, because obtaining it is often accompanied by considerable paperwork. At the same time, not everyone understands why it is needed at all and what goal the state pursues by establishing the mandatory nature of this procedure. Registration in a passport plays an important role in the life of every person, even if he is not a resident of the Russian Federation, but lives in the country temporarily. Its absence can result in various troubles, ranging from fines to deportation, if we are talking about foreigners.
In 1993, the concept of registration was abolished in the Russian Federation, and the term “registration” was introduced instead. However, the renaming of the process did not in any way affect the general concept of recording persons residing permanently or temporarily in the territory of the Russian Federation.
In accordance with legislative norms, registration is a notification process and is created to be able to record population migration.
According to statistics, every year about twenty million people change their place of residence, deregistering at one address and registering at another.
Re-registration is not always mandatory. So, when moving within one subject of the Russian Federation, people may not make new paperwork if they themselves do not need it. But with global movements between constituent entities of Russia or even different countries, or in the case of deregistration from a previous place of residence, registration actions cannot be avoided.
The lack of documentary information confirming registration will not allow a person to get an official job, enroll minors in a kindergarten or school, or apply for benefits and benefits.
The mandatory registration is regulated by the Law of the Russian Federation No. 5242-1 of June 25, 1993. Article 5 of this normative act establishes the rules for registration and deadlines for this procedure.
When leaving a previous address, registration must be issued within 7 days from the date of deregistration. But the law allows you to register while maintaining your main place of residence within 90 days from the date of moving.
It is permitted to obtain temporary or permanent registration. A person’s rights are not infringed in any way, even if he is not permanently registered.
Registration can be declared invalid only if it was carried out in violation of the law, such as the lack of permission from the owner or the established fictitiousness of the procedure.
Registration is an official procedure that is carried out by a citizen when submitting an approved package of documents to the territorial body of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation.
All actions are carried out in strict accordance with established legal standards and must be recorded in a certain order.
The registration of a person is confirmed by filling out special forms by passport officers, which are subsequently stored in the departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and after losing their relevance in the archives.
The information is entered into electronic databases, to which authorized representatives of government bodies have access.
When checking information about a person, it is his registration data that is first looked at.
Although the 21st century is considered the computer era, in which access to any information is simplified, this does not negate the obligation of employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to issue registered citizens confirmation of the fact of registration.
Stamp in the passport
Each person must have documentary evidence of where they registered and on what date this occurred. Upon receipt of permanent registration, a special stamp is placed in the passport, which contains all the required information.
A mark is placed on the identity card only at the final stage of registration, that is, after the entire procedure has been successful and other documents have been completed and approved. The stamp in the passport allows you to determine the place of residence of a person or the address where he is registered. When registering at a different place of residence, a new mark is placed, which automatically cancels the old one.
Today, the absence of a registration mark deprives a person of a huge number of rights and freedoms. He will not only be unable to work on an official basis, but also to qualify for any benefits or assistance from the state. Such a person is invisible in the country’s format; he simply does not exist.
What does it look like?
The registration stamp is placed in the person’s passport in a strictly designated place for this purpose. On the fifth page of the document there is a note stating that this is where information about the place of residence is entered. If addresses change frequently, stamps can be placed on pages five to twelve.
The appearance of the entered information has a standard design established by the legislative acts of the Russian Federation. First, a stamp is affixed, which has a rectangular shape along the width of the passport sheet and a height of 300 mm.
At the end, information about the date of registration and the personal signature of the passport officer who entered the data are affixed.
Where can I apply?
To register, you should contact the department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs that oversees the given region, city, or village.
Each territorial department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has specialists who deal with this type of accounting.
Passport officers provide citizens with all the necessary information about collecting the required documents for registration. There you can also pick up an application form for registration. At the stands there are sample forms that will help you understand the order of entering data.
You can also apply for registration to the passport officers of the management company or HOA. They are required to provide a list of required documents, and after completing them, accept the application for registration.
Multifunctional centers also accept documents for registration. The procedure for contacting the MFC is standard, but it is necessary to take into account that you should come to the branch at the place of future registration.
Obtaining temporary registration is possible in the following cases:
- The person being registered has a primary residence permit, but will live at the specified address for some time.
- The person has been discharged from his previous place of residence, but is unable to register on a permanent basis.
The registration process is the same in all cases. But there is one significant difference - there is no stamp about the place of residence.
This does not mean that the person does not receive any documentary confirmation after the procedure is completed. You will be given an A5 sheet of paper, which is called a registration certificate.
You can receive a temporary stamp only in the presence of the owner of the residential premises, who will certify his permission for registration.
The legislation allows three days for the issuance of temporary registration from the moment the Ministry of Internal Affairs receives an application from the registered person. This period will be extended if the documents are submitted through the MFC or housing and communal services passport officer.
A certificate of registration at the place of residence is issued to those persons who have left their old address and come to this area for the purpose of permanent or temporary stay.
To obtain it, you will need to make the same efforts, and the procedure itself is not much different from all those previously described. However, there are also individual characteristics. A person arriving at a new place of residence must present a departure certificate to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
It is completed before the move upon discharge, and a stamp indicating the person’s departure is placed in the passport, indicating the intended place of new residence.
If you do not have a departure certificate, you should simply present a passport with a mark indicating deregistration.
But in this case, the final registration procedure will be somewhat drawn out, since the initial request is made at the place of registration and only after receiving supporting documents does the re-registration process begin.

What does it look like?
A certificate of registration at the place of residence is a document that is drawn up in strict accordance with established standards. The form is filled out according to the developed Form 3 and contains the following information:
- Personal document number.
- Registered person’s details – full name, date and place of birth.
- The address at which a person is registered - republic, region, city, street, house, apartment.
- Start and end dates of registration.
- Document data on the basis on which the form was issued.
The completed form is certified by the personal signature of the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and a seal.
Temporary registration is a separate form insert, issued for a certain period and giving the citizen the right to reside at the address to which he is attached, as well as to use government services provided on the basis of registration.
All people with Russian citizenship know what registration looks like in a passport. It is the stamp on the passport page indicating the current address of residence that is a permanent residence permit. The absence of such a stamp is a direct indication of the need to obtain at least temporary registration.
How long does it take (days) to register at the passport office? A citizen who has changed his place of residence is obliged to contact the officials responsible for registration and submit documents within seven days. After the documents have been submitted, these responsible persons, within three days, transfer them to the registration authorities, where they, in turn, register and put a mark in the passport.
Registration at the place of residence (temporary) will allow you to take out a loan, provided that your passport contains a stamp indicating permanent registration in another region. If this is not the case, then at best the loan will be issued for a period that will not exceed the duration of the temporary registration.

What is permanent and temporary registration?
Permanent registration (in everyday life, residents of Russia, out of habit, call it propiska) means registration at a person’s place of permanent residence. The presence of such registration is evidenced by a special stamp in the civil passport.
When a citizen is forced to travel outside his region to another and plans to stay there for more than three months, he should register at his location.
This registration is called registration at the place of residence or temporary.
Answering the question whether a mark is placed in the passport during temporary registration, it should be said that in this case no stamps are placed in the passport, but a paper temporary passport supplement is issued. The permanent registration stamp is retained.
Registration rules
Registration in the Russian Federation is a mandatory notification norm for all citizens of the country, as well as for persons of foreign citizenship or those who do not have citizenship but live in Russia. The rules for registration with the Ministry of Internal Affairs are regulated by approved legislative acts. These include:
- Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia No. 984 “On approval of the Administrative Regulations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs...” dated December 31, 2021.
- Law of the Russian Federation No. 5242-1 “On the right of citizens of the Russian Federation to freedom of movement...” dated June 25, 1993
- Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 713 “On approval of the Registration Rules ...” dated July 17, 1995
Registration of citizens is divided into:
- Permanent, which is usually called registration, gives the right to occupy living space for an unlimited period.
- Temporary, allowing you to register at your place of residence without leaving your permanent residence address.
The presented regulatory documents describe the deadlines for registration actions established both for the citizens themselves and for the responsible specialists who are directly involved in checking the provided data and entering it into the general database of the Russian Federation.
What is the procedure for obtaining permanent and temporary registration?
The procedure for registration and deregistration is developed in detail in the relevant regulations and rules. The algorithm of actions if it is necessary to put a stamp in the passport about registration at the place of residence is as follows:
- leave your previous place of residence. To do this, you need to contact the registration authority where the previous registration took place, with a statement of intention to change your place of permanent residence and hand over your passport with the stamp of your old registration;
- three days later, go back to the department, get a passport with a note about deregistration and;
- appear at the registration authority at your new residence address. Before stamping a residence permit in a passport, civil servants must obtain a passport, departure sheet, completed forms and other documents from the applicant. The applicant is informed of the date when it will be possible to pick up the passport with a new stamp.
The procedure for obtaining temporary registration is in many ways similar, but also has serious differences:
- removal from permanent registration is not necessary - the stamp in the passport is not canceled;
- no departure sheet required;
- the period for verifying submitted data may increase from three to eight days;
- in hotels, houses for visitors, campsites, tourist centers and similar institutions, registration is carried out by the administration immediately upon the arrival of the visitor;
- the registration period is established by agreement with the tenant (in the state fund and municipal buildings) or the owner of the property;
- The temporary registration stamp is not affixed to the passport. The applicant receives a paper certificate of temporary registration.
In both the first and second cases, this service is provided free of charge and not paid.
It is up to you personally to decide what to do if there is no registration in your passport. The registration procedure, as a rule, does not cause any particular difficulties (if you have the necessary package of documents).
What documents may a citizen of the Russian Federation need when applying for registration?
The list of documents required for registration is given in the Administrative Regulations.
To register at your place of stay you must provide:
- passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
- ;
- statement according to f. No. 1;
The application must be signed by the applicant and the owner/occupier; - , the owner’s consent to temporary residence and other justifications for the right to temporary residence at this address.
To register at your place of residence you need:
- passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
- statement according to f. No. 6
when submitted by mail - Form No. 1 PR; - documents that give the right to move into a given address: purchase and sale agreement, state registration certificate, move-in warrant, relevant certificates;
- house register (for the private sector);
- Departure sheet (for citizens who have deregistered at their old place of residence).
Citizens under 14 years of age will need a birth certificate instead of a passport. When registering a newborn child, you are additionally required to provide parents and parental passports.
We recommend that you familiarize yourself with it in more detail.
Where should I go to apply for registration?
To register, you must visit in person or through a legal representative:
- to the territorial department of the Main Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation at the citizen’s place of residence;
- to the multifunctional center.
Information about addresses, reception schedules, days off and other information can be obtained on the websites and. Before your visit, it is advisable to make an appointment online (this will save you from waiting in lines).
Applying for registration online
You can submit an application for registration via the Internet. To do this you need:
- on the GUVM page of the website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, indicate “State services of the GUVM of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation”;
- from the list ;
- in the tab that opens, read the information and click “Get this service online”;
- on the next page, select service options and the method of submitting an application (electronically), click “Get class=”aligncenter” width=”1300″ height=”699″[/img]
After these operations, you will be redirected to the State Services website. Having entered your personal account, you will need to fill out an application online (including entering passport data, documents that prove the right to reside at the specified address), select a notification method (SMS, email).
After checking the data, a notification will be sent to the specified address about the date and time of the visit to the Main Department of Migration Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for registration.
Do they put a mark on temporary registration?
Obtaining temporary registration is possible in the following cases:
- The person being registered has a primary residence permit, but will live at the specified address for some time.
- The person has been discharged from his previous place of residence, but is unable to register on a permanent basis.
The registration process is the same in all cases. But there is one significant difference - there is no stamp about the place of residence. This does not mean that the person does not receive any documentary confirmation after the procedure is completed. You will be given an A5 sheet of paper, which is called a registration certificate. It contains all the necessary information about the date of registration and place of residence.
You can receive a temporary stamp only in the presence of the owner of the residential premises, who will certify his permission for registration.
The legislation allows three days for the issuance of temporary registration from the moment the Ministry of Internal Affairs receives an application from the registered person. This period will be extended if the documents are submitted through the MFC or housing and communal services passport officer.
Where is the registration stamped in the passport?
The passport is stamped only with registration at the place of residence; registration at the place of residence is reflected in the certificate. The page of the passport with registration (on which the registration stamp will be affixed) is not specifically established by law. For this purpose, the Russian passport has eight pages – from the fifth to the twelfth. When deregistering, a corresponding stamp will be affixed here.
We invite you to learn in more detail about the structure of a Russian passport, the nature of the information entered into it, as well as about.
Why do you need a stamp confirming registration in the Russian Federation?
Firstly, some social benefits are tied to the place of registration of the citizen.
For example, it is impossible to apply for unemployment benefits if there is no registration in the documents. You will not receive the status of an individual entrepreneur either. Difficulties may also arise with employment: although enterprises are theoretically obliged to hire people without registration, in practice this will be rather a disadvantage. Another reason is the numerous violations of the law that occurred on the part of citizens without registration.
Registration requirements are the same for all Russians, and if there is no registration, then a fine is imposed for living without registration.

An error was made when registering in your passport: what to do in this case
The situation when registration workers make mistakes when affixing a registration stamp is quite common. In a number of cases, employees of the registration authority stamp the passport “Canceled” and put a new one with the correct data entered.
Another option: the old stamp is crossed out, “Wrong” is entered, and then a new one is affixed.
The problem is that, in accordance with the Administrative Regulations, no corrections can be made to the passport, the “Cancelled” stamp is not provided for it (FMS order No. 339 of December 7, 2007), and the corrections made and extraneous entries make the passport illegitimate. Therefore, in this case, you only need to change your passport. Depending on whose fault the mistake was made, the issue of state duty will be decided.
How to change your registration
We have already discussed how to change your registration, as well as what documents are needed. The question arises: do you need to change any documents after receiving a new registration?
Upon receiving temporary registration, the citizen is given a certificate indicating the address of his temporary registration and the validity period, which he agreed on with the owner of the home. After a change of permanent registration, two stamps are affixed to a person’s passport: the first about an extract from the old place of residence, the second about registration in a new one. There are simply no other documents reflecting registration information, which means nothing will have to be changed.
And yet, when changing place of residence and registration, a citizen must realize that there are organizations that need this information, and independently report all changes. Examples of such organizations are: the Pension Fund, the traffic police, the military registration and enlistment office, clinics, and so on.
Do I need to change my TIN when changing my registration? Usually, when moving, tax services will transfer all the necessary information to the Federal Tax Service at the new place of residence. Therefore, there is no need to worry about this.
Lack of registration in the passport: what to do
The absence of a registration stamp in a passport is not a reason to consider it invalid (sometimes it happens that when exchanging documents, registration was not added to the new passport). A citizen enjoys the same scope of rights and freedoms as others. The administrative regulations clearly state that when receiving a passport, you must provide information about your permanent or temporary place of residence. Therefore, the lack of registration can be considered a violation of this regulation.
At the same time, with temporary registration, a stamp is not affixed to the passport, but a paper certificate is issued (this is about whether a passport can be issued without registration).
A different situation arises when a citizen deregisters and does not obtain a new registration. In this case, he violates the law and may be subject to administrative liability in the form of a fine, so the more correct solution would be to legalize his residence as soon as possible.

In order to encourage citizens to register, administrative fines were introduced. But it is not always easy to persuade the owner of the property to allow you to live in his apartment, due to various concerns. Therefore, there are penalties not only for persons who are not registered anywhere, but also for home owners who allow such citizens to live in their apartments.
Penalties for lack of registration:
- Persons who have not legally received registration at their place of residence or temporary residence are fined 2,000-3,000 rubles. If this violation is committed in Moscow or St. Petersburg, then the fine increases to 3,000-5,000 rubles.
- Citizens who allow persons without registration to reside in their homes are punished in the amount of 3,000-5,000 rubles. If this offense occurred in Moscow or St. Petersburg, the fine will be 5,000-7,000 rubles.
- When a person lives in an apartment without registration, and the owner of the property is a legal entity, then this organization will be fined in the amount of 50,000 - 757,000 rubles. Legal entities committing this offense in cities of federal significance receive fines in the amount of 250,000-750,000 rubles (Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, Article 19.15.1)
Penalty for late registration. The law does not provide for a separate punishment for such a violation. Persons who are late in obtaining registration bear the same responsibility as those who did not receive it, that is, 2000-3000 rubles. The expiration date does not matter.
This usually happens like this: the local police officer, who has learned about the expiration of the registration period, draws up a protocol on illegal residence and recommends registration. If, upon returning a week later, the citizen has not completed registration, the local police officer will draw up another report, but then the violator will have to pay double the fine.

Registration procedure
Many people are confused about what should be considered a temporary stay and what is considered a so-called registration. Let's clarify the terminology:
- Permanent registration is determined by place of residence. Such an object is real estate intended for permanent residence. It doesn’t matter whether a person lives here all his life or only for a certain period of time, but the premises must belong to him by right of ownership, shared ownership, under a social lease or lease agreement, etc.
- The place of stay is fixed at the address where the citizen lives temporarily. These can be hotels, hotels, sanatoriums, holiday homes, social institutions, rented facilities. Also, temporary registration can be issued at the address of one’s own property or in the apartment of another citizen with his consent.
- Fictitious registration. It involves attempts by citizens to register using fictitious documents and false information according to the law. Qualifies as an illegal act and is prosecuted by law.
Features of registration in Moscow and St. Petersburg
Moscow and St. Petersburg are the leaders in the number of migrants, which is why migration policy here differs from other settlements. Citizens who want to leave their city and move to live in the country's largest metropolises should know that the rules for migration registration here are more stringent.
There is a rule according to which it is prohibited to live in Moscow and St. Petersburg for more than 3 months without registration. Therefore, many migrants use the services of fictitious registration. However, GUVM employees regularly conduct raids, and if a fictitious registration is discovered, the violators will be held accountable. Criminal proceedings are provided for the owner and residents of so-called “rubber” apartments.
Nuances of registering
The state approaches the registration procedure with the utmost responsibility and attention, and establishes that there are a number of design features that need to be paid attention to.
To give citizens the opportunity to quickly obtain registration, the procedure can be carried out at the MFC, which is located in the citizen’s area of residence. As practice shows, using the services of the Multifunctional Center can significantly reduce waiting time and costs.
How to change your registration in your passport through the MFC
You can change your registration in your passport only after the preliminary deregistration procedure has been completed. This is necessary in a situation where the user is selling real estate. If he is simply moving, then deregistration is not required.
To change your registration in your passport, you need a reason, for example, a certificate of ownership. The procedure for changing your registration will be as follows:
- The applicant submits originals and copies of the necessary documents, including the departure certificate, to the MFC employee.
- An application of the established form is filled out. The application must not contain inaccuracies, corrections or errors, otherwise it will be rejected. It will also be worth submitting all the necessary documentation.
- The MFC specialist sets the optimal date when the applicant needs to come for a passport with a new registration mark.
How to simultaneously check out and register at another address through the MFC
The procedure for simultaneous deregistration and registration at another address in the MFC is absolutely similar to registration in the Federal Migration Service. However, the participation of an MFC specialist in this process allows you to avoid hours-long queues.
In order to be discharged, you need to make an appointment with MFC consultants in your city and find out what documents are needed to carry out simultaneous discharge and registration, and set a day for visiting a specialist. At the appointed time, the applicant comes to the MFC, submits documents, and after a certain period of time picks up a passport with updated registration data.
Permanent registration in an apartment under a social tenancy agreement
The owner of the social apartment is the local government
The owner of the social apartment is the local government. Housing offices or public housing departments can act on their behalf. The tenant registers municipal housing for unlimited time use. Registration nuances:
- moving in relatives. An application is sent to the housing office; if agreed, registration is carried out with the provision of an extended list of documents. The consent of the employer must be provided for this;
- registration of foreign citizens. It is necessary to obtain the consent of all people legally residing in the apartment for the registration of a “stranger”. And also obtain the consent of the municipal owner. The candidate is registered, after which the responsible tenant applies to the municipality with an application to include the new tenant in the social tenancy agreement;
- registration of a minor. The child is registered in public housing at the request of one of the parents to the authorized bodies: migration department, MFC, passport office.
Permission from the municipality and the consent of the other registered persons are not required. Finally, the child is included in the rental agreement.
Receipt times depend on registration
The time of registration and receipt of an exit passport directly depends on what kind of registration the applicant has:
- when applying in the area of permanent registration, you can receive a foreign passport within a month;
- when applying at the place of residence (presence of temporary registration or no registration at all), the application is considered within 3 months.
In both cases, a well-chosen package of accompanying documents and the absence of access to classified materials are important. The longer period for obtaining a foreign certificate for temporary registration or actual residence is due to the number of official checks and inquiries at previous places of registration.
Please note that it can be extremely difficult to obtain an urgent passport (3 days) in the absence of permanent registration. In this case, it is recommended to contact specialized organizations that will help with urgent travel abroad. Mandatory conditions for issuing a travel document in the absence of registration or temporary residence permit are the presence of Russian citizenship and a general passport.
