In accordance with the migration legislation of the Russian Federation, every visitor from neighboring countries or a Russian who arrives in the capital from another region of the country must be registered with the OUFMS in a timely manner. This is necessary in order to know the location and occupation of each citizen. In this regard, it is important to know what documents for temporary registration are required. What exactly is required for a particular citizen depends on individual circumstances.
When and why is temporary registration required?
Interested parties can learn all the information on this from the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The corresponding paragraph of the law provides for the opportunity for Russians to reside not in the place of permanent residence, but in another city. In this case, you can keep a permanent registration and have a temporary one. In any case, when staying in a foreign city for more than three months, registration of temporary registration is a necessity for all visitors.
This measure can be applied in the sale of your own apartment or in the construction of new housing. Travelers, provided that the trip lasts more than three months, are required to register with the FMS. Temporary registration is also required for those who have temporarily relocated to another city. With long-term inpatient treatment in another city, a short-term residence permit is also needed. Sometimes it is required by citizens for family or personal reasons.
What does this document give to a citizen?
Temporary registration in St. Petersburg or another Russian city gives the visitor certain rights. For example, if you register in municipal housing or in a medical institution (with long-term treatment) you can:
- Get a significant discount from the housing and communal services in the main place of residence of the citizen.
- Get a good job.
- Do not be afraid of receiving fines for accommodation without registration.
- Take advantage of regional social benefits.
- If a citizen has children, then they can be taken to school or kindergarten.
Where can I register temporarily?
Sometimes the issue needs to be resolved immediately, so it is important to ask the OUFMS staff in advance where the newcomer can register and what documents he will need for temporary registration. It depends on the region, as municipal laws may vary.
For example, temporary registration in Moscow for citizens of the Russian Federation can be issued:
- In a hotel, rest house, sanatorium, at the tourist base where the visitor resides.
- In the hostel (at the place of work or study).
- In a municipal or private apartment (must be agreed with the owners).
Registration of minors
Persons under the age of 18 are registered together with their parents or legal representatives, regardless of whether the adult makes temporary or permanent registration. To do this, you do not need to get permission from homeowners. In accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, a child must be registered with parents.
Documents for temporary registration of a minor:
- Passports of parents.
- Birth certificate.
- A statement from the child’s legal representative.
What law does this control?
The Russian Constitution does not have a specific law that would only apply to the temporary registration of visitors at the place of stay.
There is a government decree No. 713 in the Civil Code, on the basis of which they can be fined for living without a residence permit. There is also a law that allows Russians to move freely and choose their place to live within their home country. The administrative order of the migration service is approved by government order No. 208.
If a citizen makes a registration in a rented apartment, then he does not have to bring homeowners to the OUFMS when he submits documents for temporary registration. If the housing area has several owners at once, then at registration one of them is sufficient if there is a written consent of all the others.
The procedure for registration of visitors at the place of stay
The procedure has its own characteristics in different cases. For example, the timing of temporary registration is agreed upon with the homeowners and is always individual.
The legislation of the Russian Federation regulates a specific procedure that all Russians and foreign nationals must adhere to if they need temporary registration in St. Petersburg or another city in the country (at their place of residence).
Registration does not imply any payment for services to the OUFMS service. A citizen receives an insert containing information about the owner and his actual place of residence. In the event of the loss of this paper, any fines cannot be imposed on a citizen during identity verification, but he should contact the OUFMS for a duplicate.
Documents for temporary registration
It is very important to provide all necessary papers to the migration service department, namely:
- Application from the owner or authorized person.
- Passport of a citizen of Russia.
- The consent of all owners of the premises and those who are registered there.
- Documents for the apartment (social contract of employment, certificate of ownership).
After registration, the citizen receives a temporary registration form, which contains information about the owner of the paper and its validity.
Non-privatized housing
The procedure is possible with the permission of the tenant of the municipal facility and each resident registered in it. In a non-privatized house, you can get a temporary residence permit for no more than six months. The municipality may refuse to resettle a new tenant if, according to legislative standards, there will not be enough square meters at all. Their number is different in each Russian region. Permission to attribute a child to the registration of parents is required neither from the tenants of the apartment, nor from the landlord.
Own housing
For registration in the apartment, which is the property, you need to get the permission of the residents and owners. The time frame for temporary registration in this case depends only on how the parties agree.
Some features are provided for registration in an apartment owned by several people:
- Consent and a written statement from all owners are provided to the OUFMS.
- When registering, all of them must be present.
- The discrepancy with the legislative norms on the number of square meters in this case does not matter.
How to register in a mortgage apartment?
A special way to register for housing purchased in a mortgage. It is known that this transaction involves finding property in collateral with the bank that issued the loan. In this regard, the question arises of how to register in such housing, because a financial organization imposes a number of certain restrictions on an apartment.
Those who wish to receive temporary registration in such a house may be refused. The reason for this will be that the apartment is in a mortgage. If the loan agreement does not contain a clause stating that it is prohibited to register third parties, then there is the opportunity to challenge the decision in court.
Registration procedure in state and commercial institutions
If a citizen has been in a sanatorium or hotel for more than three months, then he is obliged to issue a temporary residence permit. This requires a statement from the owner of the institution and the presence of an officially authorized person. From the citizen will only need an identification card.
Order for foreign citizens
All guests from other countries are required to register with the OUFMS at the place of stay as soon as possible. In addition, in order to avoid troubles, it is better to keep a ticket with you, on which a foreigner came to Russia.
Temporary registration of citizens of Ukraine and other countries of the near abroad is required for residence in Russia for more than three months, employment, studies and other things. Without this paper, legal stay on the territory of the Russian Federation is impossible.
Registration takes place at the nearest migration service with the permission of the homeowner. The passport of the owner of the apartment and the temporary tenant is provided, a statement from the owner in form.
Why can they refuse to register?
Sometimes employees of the migration department refuse to provide a temporary residence permit, guided by the following reasons:
- The apartment has too little space for all residents registered in it.
- There is no written consent from the tenant or landlord.
- Guardianship authorities forbidden to discharge minors in worse conditions.
- The apartment has debts for utility bills.
- The owner did not agree to register with the child.
If there are contentious issues, then you can appeal the decision of the migration department by filing an application with the prosecutor or through the court. For this, the refusal must be provided to the citizen in writing, have seals and murals.
Living without a temporary residence permit on the territory of the Russian Federation is an administrative violation and is punishable by a fine on a citizen in the amount of 2 to 5 thousand rubles. After paying the fine, it is necessary to register, otherwise, with repeated detention, preventive measures will be more stringent. Foreign citizens are deported from the country in violation of the law more than two times in one year.
