Bodies of the Federal Migration Service. How to find out the code of the branch where the passport was obtained

The passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation contains a lot of information that is important for the identification of a person. Among the information that is often required to be indicated in the "passport data" column, as a rule, the body, or rather, the unit that issued the document to the person, is entered. The name and coordinates of the corresponding FMS are inscribed in the passport itself on the second page of the document. Next to them is the date of issue of the identity card and a certain "subdivision code".

Many are haunted by the meaning that is embedded in these numbers. Is it possible to decipher these numbers and is there a single reference book on the indexes of departments?

Decoding of the code assigned to the Federal Migration Service

The FMS subdivision code in the passport consists of two parts, three digits each. In addition to the fact that the index is inscribed in the passport, it is also displayed on the red seal placed on the signature.

The first half consists of three digits. It is conventionally divided into two parts: the first - two digits denoting the region; the second is the last digit, which determines the level of subordination of the FMS unit. Regarding the region, everything is simple. Double index - a code assigned to a constituent entity of the Russian Federation. It is very easy to define it. It corresponds to the region written above.

Thus, as shown in the image, the index “78” means that the passport was issued by the department of the Federal Migration Service of Russia for the city of St. Petersburg.

To find out which authority issued the document, we check the third digit:

• "0" - FMS;
• "1" - Passport and Visa Service (PVS) of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, ATC or GUVD;
• "2" - PVS of the city or regional department of internal affairs;
• "3" - PVS of the city or rural police department.

Obviously, this information is also included above in the full name of the division.

The second part of the code also includes three numbers, and it is even easier to decipher them. They mean the number assigned to a particular department or department of the FMS. For example, the code 233-013 is deciphered in this way: the passport was issued by one of the PVS of rural (or city) police departments in the Krasnodar Territory. Which is assigned a serial number 13.

The above image shows that "075" in the code column corresponds to the department of the Federal Migration Service No. 75.

A separate category of ciphers for territorial divisions and divisions is provided for the Crimea. So, in the new passports for those who have adopted the citizenship of the Russian Federation, 900-xxx is listed as the code of the FMS unit. The last three digits indicate, as described earlier, the serial number of the department. And 900 in this number means the main department of the Federal Migration Service. Today they issue passports in which the code number is 910. For example, 910-002 says that the identity card was issued by the FMS branch in Sevastopol.

Coding of the Federal Migration Service of Russia

So, as we found out above, the entire decryption is provided right above the unit code on the same page of the passport. By the way, the seal also contains all the information described above. It is difficult to imagine that anyone would have to decipher this index without the corresponding information about the FMS body nearby. However, many continue to look for them and fall for the tricks of scammers. The point is that the reference book does not exist in principle.

All offers to download a complete list of codes either do not contain real download links, or they allow you to download an archive, which, when you try to open it, requires you to enter a phone number, send an SMS. This is highly discouraged. Minimum - annoying spam will start arriving, maximum - money will be charged. But in any case, no one will receive any reference book from the FMS of Russia.

There is no other way than described above to decipher the unit code. However, it is possible to quickly and easily find out all the necessary data about the relevant unit by its name. To do this, you need to go to the website of the FMS of Russia.

Here select the tab "FMS of Russia", and in it "Structure and management".

On the page that opens, a list of all territorial bodies of the FMS by region is presented.

Choose the appropriate region. After clicking on the arrow next to the name of the region, a menu with a choice of regions and other administrative districts will appear. From this list, select the desired area.

Many drew attention to the mysterious six digits in the Russian passport called the "unit code". And many wondered - what they mean and what they are for. How it stands for, what it is for, and how to find out the code of a Russian subdivision from the directory, we will independently consider in this article.

Why do I need a department code

Subdivision code is a digital index of the specific structure of the passport and visa service that issued and issued the document. Using this code, you can find the perpetrators who violated the law when issuing a passport. It is often required to indicate when filling out legally important documents. In a civil passport, it consists of six numbers, divided into two parts by a hyphen.

Decoding codes

The first 3 digits of the code in the first part are deciphered quite simply. The first two digits mean the code of the region or subject of the Russian Federation, and the third indicates which department of the FMS (GUVM) issued it.

Consider the codes of the FMS divisions, or rather their first digits, typical for certain regions of the Russian Federation.

1. Arkhangelsk region - the code starts with number 29.
2. Belgorodskaya - 31.
3. Volgograd - 34.
4. Voronezh - 36.
5. Irkutsk - 38.
6. Kaliningrad - 39.
7. Kirovskaya 43.
8. Kursk - 46.
9. Leningradskaya -47.
10. Moscow - 50.
11. Nizhny Novgorod -52.
12. Rostov - 61.
13. Samara -63.
14. Sverdlovskaya - 66.
15. Tambov - 68.
16. Tverskaya - 69.
17. Tyumenskaya - 72.
18. Chelyabinsk - 74.
19. Yaroslavl - 76.
20. Moscow city - 77.
21. City of St. Petersburg -78.
22. Altai - 04.
23. Bashkortostan - 02.
24. Adygea - 01.
25. Dagestan -05.
26. Ingushetia -06.
27. Kabardino-Balkaria - 07.
28. Mari-El -12.
29. Mordovia - 13.
30. Udmurtia -18.
31. Chuvashia - 21.
32. Karelia - 10.
33. Tatarstan - 16.
34. Khabarovsk Territory - 27.
35. Jewish Autonomous Region - 79.
36. Chukotka Autonomous Okrug - 87.
37. Yamalo-Nenets - 89.

A separate category of codes is provided for Crimean citizens. Most of the inhabitants of this region have been accepted into Russian citizenship quite recently. Therefore, in their new passports, the code begins with the number 900. It means that it was issued by the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. A separate code - 910, is provided for those who receive an identity card of a Russian citizen in Sevastopol.

The third digit of the first part can end with 0, 1, 2 and 3. They mean:

• "0" passport was issued by the FMS.
• "1" - issued by the PVS at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, ATC or GUVD.
• "2" - issued by the Department of Internal Affairs of the district or city.
• "3" - by the police department.

For example, the first three digits of the code "522" mean that the passport was issued by the police department in the Nizhny Novgorod region, "683" - by the police department in the Tambov region, "381" - by the FMS in the Irkutsk region.

Thus, we now know what the first three digits of the code mean. And how to decipher the other three numbers from the second part - you ask. They are deciphered even easier and mean the serial number of the department or department of the PVS.

For example, the subdivision code 342-023 means that the passport was issued by the PVS of the Internal Affairs Department No. 23 in the Volgograd Region, 391-001 - by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Internal Affairs Directorate or the Central Internal Affairs Directorate of the Kaliningrad Region, 463-005 - by the Police Department No. 5 in the Kursk Region, 213-001 - by the department Police No. 1 in the Chuvash Republic, 340-001 - by the Department of the Federal Migration Service in the Volgograd Region No. 1, 632-001 - by the Department of Internal Affairs in the Samara Region, etc.

The decoding of the subdivision code is presented in the line above in the passport itself in the "passport issued" section, as well as on the official seal just below.
