For the bulk of public services in Russia you have to pay. In particular, for the production of certain documents. For example, for a driver’s license. This document is not binding on all citizens, but it is popular. With its help, a person can drive a vehicle legally. How much is the state duty for replacing a driver’s license today? What amounts had to be paid for this operation in 2014, when the rights of a new type were just introduced? How to transfer money for the service?
Main payment (old data)
Every driver should be able to answer all this. Let's start with the data for 2014. At this time, as we have already said, rights of a new type appeared. And in Russia they began to discuss raising the payment for a driver’s license.
How much did it cost to replace a driver’s license in 2014? The state duty then amounted to only 800 rubles. So much were national rights.
Paper rights
The duty offered to you is relevant only for plastic rights. They are made in the form of a card resembling bank plastic. But there is also a paper driver’s license.
It is cheaper. Typically, such a document is used as a temporary driver's license. The state duty for replacing a paper type driver’s license is only 400 rubles.
International design
But that is not all. Some citizens prefer to make international law. They are not in great demand, but have a place in real life. Of course, they also have to pay for their manufacture.
According to the established rules, the state duty for replacing a driver’s license (a payment form is issued by the STSI) will cost 1,000 rubles. No other payments are foreseen. Unless it is necessary to pre-fabricate national rights. An international military license is issued only if there is a national document that allows you to drive vehicles.
About spending in general
It is worth noting that this is not all the costs that a citizen will face. The driver will give a lot more money in total.
We met the state duty for replacing a driver’s license. Additionally, you have to pay for:
- medical commission (optional) - from 1 to 3 thousand rubles;
- filling out an application for the issue of rights - 300 rubles.
You can save. To do this, all documents for issuing a driver’s license must be filled in personally. And the medical examination of the established form will have to go through in state clinics.
Based on the foregoing, the conclusion follows that the driver can spend about 3,500 rubles for the manufacture of a driver’s license.
When to pay
At what point should the fee for the service under study be paid? You can’t say for sure - everyone decides when to pay him. You can first contact the traffic police for a payment, submit an application for manufacturing a high-end, and then make payments on bills. In this case, there is a need for an additional visit to the traffic police with a receipt for payment. Only after that the request will be processed.
In order to save time, it is better to pay a state fee for replacing a driver’s license in advance. More precisely, before applying for the provision of the corresponding service. Details for the transfer of funds can be found in the traffic police.
Payment Methods
Now it’s clear how much it costs to replace a driver’s license. A state duty receipt is issued, as a rule, when applying to the STSI with a corresponding request. But, as we have said, you can do without it. It is enough to find out the details of the traffic police-recipient. They are usually indicated on information stands located directly in the offices of the state agency.
Now consider the ways to pay the fee. It is not enough to know how much to pay in a particular case. It’s still necessary to learn how to transfer funds for a service. There are a lot of them.
For example, the following methods of making a payment for a driver’s license can be distinguished:
- bank cash desks;
- Internet banking;
- electronic payment systems (wallets);
- bank cards (through ATMs);
- payment terminals;
- Government services.
The latter option requires pre-registration on the portal. In addition, in this case, a fee will be paid for replacing a driver’s license only if the user has submitted a request for a service via the Internet.
Banks and cash desks
The easiest and most time-tested way to pay fees is to contact the bank cash desk. It is best to use the services of Sberbank. This company does not charge a transaction fee.
The following documents will be useful to a citizen:
- card or cash;
- payment system;
- passport.
The algorithm of actions in this case looks like this:
- Prepare the documents necessary for the payment.
- Contact the cashier of any bank.
- Give money and payment order.
- Show ID.
- Pick up a check, receipt, change.
It is advisable to immediately attach the check to the payment. These papers must be kept at least until they are presented to the traffic police. Otherwise, it will not be possible to confirm the fact of payment for public services.
ATM
Are you planning to replace a driver’s license? The size of the state duty for this operation, we found out. To pay with the state for the provided service, you can resort to using an ATM. The instruction is suitable for payment terminals.
We study the process of making a payment using the example of Sberbank. In this case, the citizen will need to do the following:
- Insert bank plastic in the receiver of the ATM and enter the access code to it.
- Press anywhere on the display - the main menu will open. Now you need to click on the only button "Payments in my city".
- Select "Taxes, duties."
- Indicate the recipient organization. You can click on the "Search payee" item, and then select "By barcode", "By document index" or "By TIN".
- Collect the requested data using the numeric keypad.
- Mark the reason for the payment. This item is relevant when searching for a recipient by TIN.
- Indicate the size of the fee. Sometimes it is detected automatically.
- Check the details and click on "Proceed to payment."
- Choose the company of the mobile operator used by the citizen, and then dial your number. He is needed to transfer change. It is used only in payment terminals.
- Confirm the transfer of funds.
- Get checks. They will need to be kept and presented to the traffic police.
In practice, payment of state fees by barcode is rarely used. This is due to the fact that the code is not always read by terminals and ATMs.
In fact, everything is simpler than it seems. Today you can quickly pay the traffic police duties (and fines) at the traffic police terminals. They work primarily with cash, but the process is not much different from the above instructions.
Last changes

Since January 2017, all citizens working with government services can expect a 30% discount when paying fees for making a driver’s license. This means that you will have to pay about 1,400 rubles.
