Registration for migration registration is a process that is mandatory in Russia. And we are talking about all citizens. No one has the right to be unaccounted for for a long stay in the Russian Federation. This should be remembered by all citizens. Especially this issue concerns foreigners. The thing is that they are most often the ones who need to get into migration registration in a special order. So what to prepare for? Is migration registration always required? Or can you do without this feature? What should every citizen who is on the territory of the Russian Federation pay attention to? Understanding all this is not as difficult as it seems. It is enough to know a few rules. And, of course, worry in advance about collecting a package of documents for registering a citizen as residing in the country.
Is it mandatory
The first step is to study how important the registration of a person in Russia is. Is it possible to do without it? And while legally located in the country?
Yes, this is possible. The thing is that migration registration is a mandatory procedure that all foreigners undergo. But at the same time, in some cases, you can do without this feature. When exactly?
Registration for migration registration of citizens is not required if:
- a person travels and is in transit in the country;
- a citizen temporarily came to Russia (for a short time, less than 3 months).
In all other situations, it is required to apply with appropriate documents to one or another body for accounting. Moreover, even citizens of the Russian Federation must be taken into account. Nobody exempts them from this procedure. Just in relation to the "indigenous people" are slightly different rules, they are considered not so strict.
Attention: sometimes migration registration is considered the process of obtaining a residence permit or temporary registration. Therefore, these procedures will also be said. After all, the presence of a foreigner in the country without registration is a serious violation.
Excluding
So, registration on migration registration, as already mentioned, does not always take place. Therefore, you can do without it. But how much is Russia allowed to be in the country without the so-called registration?
At the moment, the most common option is 90 days. For most foreign citizens, such a restriction applies. What does it mean?
If a citizen does not plan to continuously stay in Russia for more than 3 months, then registration is not necessary for him. The exception is employment. Then within 7 days you have to take out. But staying in the country beyond the specified period without registration is a direct violation of the law. Therefore, you should hurry up with paperwork. It is not as difficult as it seems.
Russian citizens
Registration for migration registration in Russia is an extremely important procedure. It has already been said that Russian citizens must also have registration. Only in relation to them are the rules that differ from those that are offered to foreigners.
The thing is that the initial registration is issued in a free order. It's about newborns. They can be registered at any moment of life. But you will have to remember that a person cannot take advantage without registering with social support. Therefore, it is worth hurry. Usually, a child is registered within a month . It is advisable not to delay with this process.
Migration (and in relation to citizens of the Russian Federation - registration) registration of adults upon discharge from one place of residence should be made no later than a week later. That is, only 7 days are given to a citizen to register in a particular home again. It is these rules that are currently in force in Russia.
Where to go
Where does migration registration take place? Foreign citizens do not always know exactly where to come for the implementation of the task with the corresponding package of documents.
At the moment, in Russia it is allowed to apply to several authorities. Where exactly to pay a visit? This must be decided by every citizen for himself. Usually they go where it is closest to contact.
Among the bodies offering migration registration, we can distinguish:
- multifunctional centers (not in all cities, information in each region will have to be clarified);
- migration departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
As a rule, it is precisely the second scenario that takes place. It used to be possible to go to the FMS, but recently, these services in Russia have been abolished. And their authority was transferred to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
The host
Quite often, the so-called receiving side takes place during migration. That is, a citizen does not independently reside in the Russian Federation, but by invitation. In this case, it is necessary to declare your arrival, as already mentioned, within a week.
Who has the right to act as an inviter? It:
- Russian citizens who permanently live in the country;
- a foreigner who has remained in Russia for permanent residence;
- legal entities operating and registered in the country;
- international organizations in which the guest will live or work.
Now the deadline for registration for migration registration is clear, and it also became known who has the right to invite a person. It is noted that the one who invited him should inform about the arrival of a foreigner. And it takes 3 business days. But with the independent statement of the traveler, this period lengthens. Everyone should remember this.
Migration card
And now a little about the documents that a citizen must provide to the host side. At the moment, serious paperwork does not require registration on migration records of foreign citizens. Documents that are necessary for this are not so difficult to obtain. But only when it comes to notification of the arrival of a person in the country.
The first paper is a migration card. It is issued upon arrival in Russia by a foreign citizen. It should be with everyone who legally arrived in the country. It is taken by the receiving party for a while. After contacting the appropriate application for arrival is given to the owner. Full seizure is not possible.
Identification
Also, without fail, a person must provide his ID. This document, as a rule, means a civil passport. The receiving side is prohibited from even temporarily removing this paper.
How then to be? A copy of the alien’s passport is required. Certified preferably. In practice, the most common notification of arrival of migration services comes with the traveler.
No more material papers are needed. Thus, migration registration of foreign citizens takes place. But that’s not all. Now you need to worry about such a component as registration. About it has already been said. It is she who is often considered as a migration registration. What should a foreigner know about this process?
Registration
For example, that without registration, as already mentioned, you can’t be in the territory of the Russian Federation. Only in exceptional cases is this possible. If you plan to work, then registration or temporary registration is an integral part of employment.
It can be issued temporarily (at the place of stay) and on a permanent basis (at the place of residence). For migrants, the first scenario is most often used. To apply for a temporary residence permit, you must contact one of the previously indicated authorities. It is best to do this in parallel with the arrival report. The following documents will be required from a citizen for registration:
- permission of the homeowner to register;
- statement of established form;
- applicant's passport;
- identification card of the landlord (copy);
- documents on property rights to housing;
- migration card;
- visa (if any).
The applicant is usually a foreigner himself. The presence of registration (even temporary) on the territory of the Russian Federation is a guarantee of a legal stay in the country. Quite often, in parallel with the registration of foreigners, the receiving parties send a notice of registration for migration registration to the appropriate authorities.
Process features
But that is not all! The thing is that registration with a migration register (or rather, a message to the migration services about the arrival of a citizen) is a responsible process. And he has, as already mentioned, his own characteristics.
It is worth noting that the registration form for migration registration is filled in by the inviting party. It should not have abbreviations or abbreviations. It is made in 2 copies. The storage period for such a notice is 12 months.
The notification has a tear-off part. What to do with her? The inviting party must give this component to a foreign citizen. This is a kind of confirmation that the migration service knows about arrival. When registering a person may request this component. In this case, you do not need to give the original, just a copy.
Additional papers
In some cases, when notifying the migration services of the Russian Federation about the arrival of a citizen of a foreign country, they may request additional documents. This practice is common in the country. Therefore, both the foreigner and the inviting party should know what certificates are required legally.
These include:
- employment contract (copy);
- work permit (patent);
- approval for temporary registration at the hotel (upon registration);
- consent of all registered on the territory of housing for the registration of a foreigner (if it is a question of registration).
They cannot demand any more papers. The parties have the right to refuse to provide documents that are not related either to registration on a migration account, or to registration or temporary registration.
