Foreign passports and documents

Do I need a residence permit to apply for a passport?


Many residents of Russia do not live where they are registered. Well, if the house is close, but what to do if the place of residence and registration are separated by thousands of kilometers, do I need a registration for a passport?

According to the current law, any Russian citizen can get a foreign passport in 2019. Citizenship is confirmed by a Russian passport or a corresponding stamp in the child's birth certificate. It turns out that you can apply to any branch of the FMS or MFC in Russia and get a passport not at the place of registration.

The main thing is the presence of a residence permit or temporary registration in any region of the Russian Federation.

The only problem is that the registration period is delayed up to 120 calendar days. This increase is justified by the fact that we have to send requests for data verification to other regions. Despite modern technologies for fast information transfer, such requests are processed for a very long time.

If the selected branch refused to accept documents due to lack of registration, you can safely go to court. There is also an easier option - to try your luck in another branch, perhaps they have already familiarized themselves with the new rules and the application will be accepted.

Emergency registration of a foreign passport is possible even when applying at the place of residence. This is possible if urgent treatment is needed outside our country. Also, if a relative abroad is seriously ill, seriously injured or died.

All of these options must be documented. A doctor's opinion, a death certificate, the consent of a foreign doctor to accept you for treatment will do. As well as at the place of residence, the urgent production of a document takes only 3 working days.

List of documents

The list does not differ from what is required to obtain a passport for registration:

  • Everyone who is already 14 years old - a general passport of the Russian Federation. Minors, regardless of age, must also submit a birth certificate;
  • The questionnaire is a statement. It should already be filled out, but the signature is already placed when submitting. You do not need to paste photos yourself either;
  • Photos of the required sample: for an old passport - 3, for a new one -2;
  • Receipt for payment of state duty. It is filled in on behalf of the recipient, his data is also entered on the child.
  • Employment record or statement of work for the last 10 years. This is required to complete the questionnaire.

By law, a military ID or a certificate from the military commissariat is not needed.

FMS employees must make a request on their own, therefore, you will not have to go to your hometown for these documents. If you have a military ID on hand, presenting it can speed up the process.

Rules for filling out the questionnaire

Questionnaires for the old and new passports do not have significant differences, but the filling rules are different. For the regular version, the application can be downloaded in text format. When filling out, you can use any font, just as there are no requirements for the size of the letters. The only limitation is that the format must be the same throughout the entire document. When filling in data on work, breaks from 1 month are entered. The dates are also entered, and in the place of work column we write the home address.

The biometric passport application form is only available in pdf format. It must be filled out in capital letters on a computer. In the section on work for the last 10 years, enter breaks that lasted more than 3 months.

How to fill out an application correctly

Consider the questionnaire point by point:

  1. Last name, first name and patronymic each enter in the allotted line.
  2. In the second paragraph, enter the gender, as in the passport.
  3. The date of birth is written in the format dd.mm.yyyy.
  4. We write off the place of birth exactly from the general identity card.
  5. In paragraph 5, information about the change of personal data is recorded. If they haven’t changed, put a cross in the “no” box and move on. If yes, put a cross in the required field and fill in all the data. Those who had more than 1 shift will need an application form. The last shift is recorded in the questionnaire itself, and in the application in chronological order.
  6. Enter registration details here. Accurate information can be written off from the stamp in the passport.
  7. 7 point - the place of actual residence. Here we write the address where you live in the city in which you decided to apply for a passport at the place of residence.
  8. Contact phone number. Carefully check the correctness, they will call him when the passport is ready.
  9. You can enter an e-mail, then a message will also come there about the decision made and the readiness of the passport. This method is more reliable, since you can skip the call and read the letter at any convenient time.
  10. The data of the civil passport are indicated, everything is clearly in the designated places.
  11. Data on the preservation of state secrets must be indicated if there was access. The information will be checked in any case, and false information is a reason to refuse to issue an exit permit.
