Let me add that if for you the extension of your stay without leaving the Russian Federation is a priority and then the specified foreign citizen plans to live in Russia, then the only way is to have time to submit documents for a temporary residence permit.

What is temporary registration and for how long is it issued?

The term temporary registration is almost never used today.
This is an outdated concept; now the concept used is registration. Thus, registration is the registration of a specific person at the place of residence during a given period of time. It can be permanent or temporary, i.e. issued for a limited period.

When applying for it, a person does not have to be discharged from his permanent place of residence.

The law gives a clear concept of the difference between temporary registration and permanent registration.

The table below shows the differences in registration.

Obtaining permanent residence status at an address gives certain rights:

• If a citizen lives in municipal housing, then he has the opportunity to privatize it;
• May give permission for other people to live in the apartment with the possibility of registration;
• Register close relatives in the apartment.

When registering temporarily, a special insert is issued. It indicates the beginning and end of its action.

The law defines the maximum period of stay in a populated area without registration. It should not exceed 90 days. But a citizen has the right to leave his place of residence every 89 days and return the next day.

In this case, the period of ninety days begins again. Which is inconvenient for workers who have a permanent place of work. Therefore, you should apply for a temporary registration.

The maximum period for which a certificate can be obtained is 5 years. However, this rule does not apply to minors. They are registered until they reach adulthood.

The law defines the procedure for registration of temporary registration of a minor; it must be registered together with one of the parents. In this case, the father or mother is registered for the same period.

The registration procedure can be carried out under a rental or rental agreement in the owner’s apartment. The duration of stay should not exceed the rental period.

According to Art. 5 of Federal Law No. 115-FZ of July 25, 2002 “On the legal status of foreign citizens in the Russian Federation”, a foreign citizen temporarily staying in the Russian Federation is obliged to leave the Russian Federation upon the expiration of his visa or other period of temporary stay established by this Federal Law law or an international treaty of the Russian Federation, except for cases when, on the day of expiration of the specified periods, the validity of his visa or the period of temporary stay was extended, or he was issued a new visa, or a temporary residence permit, or a residence permit, or his application and other documents necessary to obtain a temporary residence permit.

How to make a temporary registration?

The issue of obtaining temporary registration becomes relevant if a person stays in the place of stay for more than 3 months. The reasons may be different:

• long business trip,
• studies,
• period of caring for a sick relative,
• moving to another city in search of permanent housing.

In any case, during this period, the citizen is obliged to visit the unit of the Main Directorate for Migration Issues of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (GUVM MVD, previously these functions were performed by the Federal Migration Service, FMS), register and receive a document confirming his right to use living space in a foreign city.

• Registration of clients in hotels and apartments, patients in hospitals and boarding houses is carried out by employees of these institutions. This requires a passport or other identification document.
• Let’s say a person intends to register in his relative’s apartment, which is municipal or official property. In this case, its registration requires the consent of all persons registered in the living space. The municipal owner who has entered into an apartment rental agreement must also record his consent.
• When concluding a lease agreement, temporary registration is impossible without the consent of the owner of the living space (expressed during a personal visit to the department of the Main Department of Migration Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or in a notarized application).

The first (and most difficult) stage of temporary registration is the search for owners willing to provide housing with registration. About 22% of citizens who need temporary registration cannot register because the owners of the housing in which they live do not consent to registration at their address.

For how long can I register?

Citizens of the Russian Federation who have a permanent place of residence usually apply for temporary registration for the duration of their stay on a business trip, study, or internship. In such cases, an application is made for a short registration period - from 3 months to 1 year.

A longer period of registration is required for relatives who, for some reason, are forced to fit into the living space of their relatives, as well as families with children, and people living in a civil marriage. For example, a woman, being the owner of a living space, can register her husband in it. The maximum period of such registration is 5 years.

Owners of housing where temporary residents are registered can sell their property. But residents registered there have the right to live in it until the end of the registration period. Naturally, such an apartment will cost less than living space without tenants. Another unpleasant nuance is possible for the owner: if utilities are calculated based on the number of people living in the living space, there will be an increase in costs.

FAQ

Is it possible to take out a loan with temporary registration?

Temporary registration legalizes a person and gives him access to various services. A citizen with temporary registration has the right to apply for a loan and borrow money from a bank.

But it is necessary to take into account some circumstances:

• it is more difficult for a bank to monitor a debtor with a temporary registration, the risk of non-repayment of loans is higher, so the interest on the loan increases;
• if you need to borrow a small amount, it is better to get a credit card - having a temporary residence permit does not matter here;
• It will be easier for the bank to make a positive decision on issuing large sums if a person with temporary registration presents a certificate of work for at least 6 months in one place;
• To issue a loan, guarantors with permanent registration in a given city may be required;
• a loan can be obtained against valuables;
• and finally, the chances of borrowing money from a bank will be high for those with a good credit history.

In a word, temporary registration is not an obstacle to borrowing money, but it somewhat complicates the terms of this transaction.

State duty

Do I need to pay for temporary registration and how much does it cost to register a citizen of the Russian Federation for 3 months or 1 year?

Regardless of the registration period, temporary registration is one of the few types of government services that are not subject to duty. The entire procedure is free of charge. Therefore, UVM employees have no right to demand money for it.

Thus, temporary registration can be issued in any living space that is residential. In most cases, this requires the consent of one owner or several, if there is more than one owner. The registered person does not have the right to claim housing, but, in the case of a municipal apartment, can claim a share in it during privatization.

What does temporary registration of a tenant mean to the owner?

Providing housing for strangers involves some difficulties for the owner.

1. The owner of the property is required to register the people to whom he provides housing. For residents living in an apartment without temporary registration, he faces a fine of 5 to 7 thousand rubles. In the case of providing housing to foreign citizens, the owner is obliged to inform the migration service about his move-in, otherwise he will also face penalties.
2. The situation of registering people who are then found to have a minor child can become dangerous. According to the law, parents can register their children at their own place of registration, without the consent of the owner. Having received the right to use housing, such residents are in no hurry to evict and use the child’s registration to continue registration.
3. New residents increase the cost of utilities if the apartment is not equipped with water, electricity, gas meters and the calculation is carried out according to the number of residents.

• Inability to leave your place of residence due to illness;
• Receiving a lucrative job offer, etc.

After consultation with the relevant authorities, a package of documents is collected and resubmitted. They receive a notification by phone and pick up the certificate at the appointed time.

Features of renewal of patent registration in 2020

One of the ways to extend the temporary registration of a foreign citizen is to apply for a patent. Based on the terminology, registration of a foreigner using this method is typical for labor migrants registered in Russia specifically to perform work duties and pay monthly personal income tax.

Government Resolution No. 9 introduced changes to the extension of work patents for foreign citizens. Today, it is not enough to pay the tax fee to automatically renew your registration. To increase the period of residence is necessary by a separate application, and the patent serves only as a basis.

In September 2020, employers were given the obligation to renew the registration of a foreign citizen, not at the address of residence, but at the place of employment.
