What is RVP in Russia?

RVP in the Russian Federation is a temporary residence permit in Russia for foreign citizens.
In fact, the RVP is a stamp in the document of a foreign citizen, which confirms the right to temporary residence of a foreigner in Russia.

The RVP seal is placed in the passport of a foreign citizen or in a document proving the identity of a foreign citizen or stateless person on the territory of the Russian Federation.

What does a temporary residence permit in the Russian Federation give?

A temporary residence permit for a foreign citizen (RVP) gives a foreigner the right to temporarily reside in Russia and work in the country.

In simple words, a foreigner with a temporary residence permit has the right to legally live and work in the Russian Federation before obtaining a residence permit in Russia or citizenship.

Rights of citizens with temporary residence permit

If a foreign citizen has a TRP in Russia, then:
  • He can freely enter the territory of Russia and leave the country.
  • He can legally work in Russia and does not need to apply for a work patent or work permit.
  • A foreigner with a temporary residence permit can register his own company or individual entrepreneur.
  • Also, the RVP gives the migrant the right to free medical care and visits to polyclinics at the place of residence.
However, there are some limitations:
  • A foreigner with a temporary residence permit in Russia can work only in that region - a subject of the Russian Federation for which he was issued his temporary residence permit.
  • A foreign citizen cannot be absent from Russia for more than six months, otherwise the foreigner's TRP may be canceled. In this case, only the continuous number of days of absence on the territory of the Russian Federation is taken into account, and not the total number of days when a foreign citizen left Russia.

Period of validity of the RVP in the Russian Federation

A foreign citizen is issued a TRP for a period of up to 3 years, thus, the validity period of a temporary residence permit is three years.

There is no opportunity to extend the TRP after three years, therefore, during this period, a foreign citizen must determine his status and apply for a residence permit in Russia or apply for Russian citizenship.

RVP and the law: Federal Law on temporary residence permits for foreign citizens in Russia

Issues related to a temporary residence permit are regulated by the Federal Law No. 115 “On the Legal Status of Foreign Citizens in the Russian Federation”.

In particular, Article 6 of the Federal Law No. 115 is devoted to temporary residence permit, in it the law describes the administrative regulations for issuing a temporary residence permit in Russia and the procedure and terms for considering applications for a temporary residence permit in Russia, the validity period of this permit, quotas for issuance, and also describes situations in which a foreign citizen can receive a TRP in the Russian Federation without taking into account the quota.

Article 7 of the Federal Law No. 115 regulates the grounds for refusing to issue a temporary residence permit or cancellation of a temporary residence permit in Russia.

More information about the legislation, administrative regulations for issuing a temporary residence permit and the text of the law on RVP can be found at this link.

Issuance of a temporary residence permit

The issuance of a TRP to a foreign citizen is carried out:
  • within the statutory quota for the issuance of permits for temporary residence in Russia;
  • without taking into account the quota if there are grounds for obtaining a TRP.
Important! RVP stamping in the passport of a foreign citizen is carried out exclusively in government agencies or their representative offices and only with the personal presence of a foreign citizen. Information about the RVP is entered into the database of the GUMV Ministry of Internal Affairs.

We will tell you more about the grounds and process for obtaining a temporary residence permit in Russia under quotas and outside quotas below.

Temporary residence permit subject to quota

Quotas for temporary residence permits are approved annually by the Government of the Russian Federation, depending on the demographic situation of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and their ability to accommodate foreigners.

Thus, every year the government distributes quotas for temporary residence permits by regions of the Russian Federation, fixing how many temporary residence permits will be issued in a specific region of the country.

RVP quota in 2019

On November 22, 2017, Government Decree No. 2581-r approved the quota for temporary residence permits for 2019 by regions of the country. Quotas for TRP by region for 2019 can be found on this page.

How to get a quota for a TRP?

In this section of the article, we will take a closer look at the process of obtaining a quota for a TRP in Russia.

To get in the queue for a TRP in a selected region, a foreign citizen must apply for a TRP in Russia to government agencies or their representative offices in this region, and collect all the necessary documents for filing.

The decision to issue a quota for a TRP will be made after a foreign citizen submits all documents for obtaining a TRP in the general manner.

At the same time, filing an application does not yet guarantee a foreigner the fact of obtaining a temporary residence permit, however, if the employees of government agencies have accepted an application for a temporary residence permit, this means that the quotas for obtaining a temporary residence permit in this region have not yet been exhausted.

If the quota for a temporary residence permit is exhausted, then applications for issuing a temporary residence permit will not be accepted, then it will be almost impossible to obtain a temporary residence permit in Russia this year, only outside the quota.

After consideration of the application for a temporary residence permit in Russia, a decision is made to issue a temporary residence permit or a decision to refuse a temporary residence permit, about which the foreign citizen is informed by phone or in writing.

When can you apply for a TRP?

It is necessary to submit an application and other documents for a temporary residence permit as early as possible, immediately after the beginning of the new year, starting from January 1. Since the quota is set annually and it is always exhausted in different ways depending on the subject of the Russian Federation, therefore, the closer to the beginning of the year, the more unexhausted quotas for TRP there are in the region.

However, it should be taken into account that it takes a certain amount of time to collect the rest of the documents for the RVP, including for passing exams, passing medical examinations, etc. living in Russia.

Where to apply for a temporary residence permit and where to get a temporary residence permit?

Many foreign citizens are wondering where to apply for a temporary residence permit, especially after the liquidation of the Federal Migration Service.

You can submit a package of documents for a temporary residence permit in several ways:

  • Documents for a temporary residence permit can be personally submitted to the territorial body of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the MFC at the place of residence.
  • You can also apply for a RVP online through the government services website.

Terms of consideration of a temporary residence permit under a quota

How long to wait for the RVP after submitting the documents?
First of all, the terms of consideration of an application for obtaining a temporary residence permit in Russia on a quota by employees of the GUMV Ministry of Internal Affairs (FMS) depend on the order in which a foreign citizen arrived in Russia - in a visa (with a visa) or visa-free (without a visa).

If a foreign citizen arrived in the Russian Federation on a visa, then according to the law, an application for a TRP is under consideration up to 6 months after the documents are submitted for a TRP.

If a foreign citizen arrived in the Russian Federation on a visa-free basis, then according to the law, the term for considering an application for a temporary residence permit is 60 days.

Grounds for a RWP without a quota

A foreigner may have the following grounds for applying for a temporary residence permit without a queue:

And if earlier it was possible to find out whether the RVP was ready only with a personal appeal to the Ministry of Internal Affairs (FMS) and had to constantly make official requests to check the readiness of the temporary residence permit, today everything is much simpler, since the information has become more accessible.

Today, a foreign citizen can check the readiness of the RVP online.

You can check the readiness of the RVP on the official website of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The RVP readiness check site is available at this link.

However, remember that the online check of the RWP readiness is for informational purposes only and is not legally significant.

Below is a list of grounds for refusing to issue a TRP to a foreigner in the Russian Federation.

If the following grounds are identified, a foreign citizen who already has a valid temporary residence permit in Russia, his TRP will be canceled.

Thus, a temporary residence permit will not be issued to a foreign citizen, and the previously issued RVP will be canceled if:

  1. A foreign citizen poses a threat to the security of the Russian Federation or its citizens.
  2. A foreigner provides financial support, plans terrorist acts, facilitates or commits these acts, or otherwise supports extremist activities.
  3.

  • Try to challenge (appeal) the refusal of the RVP in court.
  • Try to challenge (appeal) the refusal to apply for a temporary residence permit at the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

The authenticity of the TRP: checking the validity of the temporary residence permit

Unfortunately, checking a RVP for authenticity is a somewhat more complicated procedure than checking for readiness, since there is still no technical possibility to check a RVP for authenticity online on the website of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (FMS).

And the only way to find out whether a RVP is really a foreign citizen is to make an official request to the authorities and wait for an official letter about the authenticity of his RVP after checking with the database of the GUMV Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Cancellation of a temporary residence permit

If you want to cancel a TRP of your own free will or want to learn more about in what cases a TRP is canceled and the most common reasons for canceling a TRP of a foreign citizen, then we suggest that you familiarize yourself with.

Extension of a temporary residence permit in Russia - can a temporary residence permit be extended?

As already mentioned at the very beginning of our article, the document is issued for a period of up to 3 years and the law does not provide for the extension of the RVP, respectively, it is impossible to extend the RVP for the next period.

And since the extension of a temporary residence permit in Russia is not provided, a foreign citizen must apply for a residence permit or apply for Russian citizenship for the period while the RVP is still valid.

Important! If you did not manage to obtain Russian citizenship or a residence permit in Russia, and the validity period of the RVP is coming to an end, you need to leave the territory of the Russian Federation before it expires. It will be possible to drive back only after the TRP expires.

Important! Until the expiration of the RVP, the foreign citizen will not accept documents for the registration of a new RVP, i.e. a foreign citizen cannot apply for a TRP if he already has a valid permit, but it can be canceled.

What to do after the RVP? Memo to a foreign citizen who received a TRP

What to do after receiving a TRP? This question is asked by almost all foreign citizens who have received a temporary residence permit in Russia.

Below are the required actions after receiving the TRP.

1. Registration at the place of residence after the TRP
The first issue that a foreign citizen will have to solve is registration after receiving a TRP.

Within 7 working days after receiving the RVP, namely the placement of the RVP stamp in the passport, a foreign citizen must register at the place of stay.

2. Provision of TIN

In the year after receiving a temporary residence permit, a foreign citizen must submit to the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (formerly the FMS) his TIN (notification of the registration of an individual with the tax office).

If a foreign citizen plans to apply for a residence permit within a year from the date of obtaining a temporary residence permit in the Russian Federation, then his TIN can be provided during the submission of a package of documents for a residence permit.

3. Confirmation of residence by TRP

A year after receiving a temporary residence permit, more precisely within 2 months from the date of the expiration of the next year from the date of obtaining a temporary residence permit, a foreign citizen must submit to the territorial department of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs a notice of confirmation of residence under the temporary residence permit in Russia and attach a certificate of income or other document, which confirms the size and source of income for the next year from the date of obtaining a temporary residence permit.

4. Applying for a residence permit or citizenship of the Russian Federation

Within 3 years after receiving a TRP in the Russian Federation, a foreign citizen must decide on his further status in Russia and apply for a residence permit or apply for Russian citizenship. It is better to start dealing with these issues at least six months before the expiry date of the temporary residence permit.

Important to remember!

  1. After receiving a temporary residence permit, a foreign citizen is not entitled to work outside the constituent entity of the Russian Federation for which he was issued a temporary residence permit.
  2. To work for individuals for hire, a foreign citizen must apply for a patent for the work.
  3. You cannot change the place of residence according to the TRP of your own free will, that is, a foreign citizen can live only within the constituent entity of the Russian Federation for which the TRP was issued to him, with the exception of the following situations:
  • If a certificate of participation in the State Program for the Voluntary Resettlement of Compatriots is received;
  • If a foreigner owns a dwelling on the territory of another constituent entity of the Russian Federation;
  • If the foreigner has family members in other regions of the Russian Federation.
In these cases, in order to change the place of residence under the temporary residence permit, a foreign citizen must submit to the territorial department of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs an application for changing the place of temporary residence in any form. The application is submitted to the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at the place of permitted temporary residence or at a new place of residence.

Summing up

It is easier for students of local universities to change citizenship and obtain a Russian passport than for most other migrants. The only thing that can cause difficulty is acquiring the necessary work experience. Otherwise, there are no high requirements for the applicant. Therefore, for those wishing to join the ranks of Russian citizens, getting an education can be one of the ways to achieve their goal.

All foreigners with a TRP must provide an annual notification. But if a foreigner is a student or pensioner, and he does not have enough funds to confirm income in the amount of 12 living wages, then the status will not be canceled:

full-time student or graduate student at a higher educational institution of the Russian Federation;
pensioner or disabled person; belonging to other categories of persons, the list of which is established by the Government of the Russian Federation;

More questions will be asked, I will answer

Many residents of the near and far abroad come to Russia in order to find work, employment, or move to the Russian Federation for permanent residence with close relatives or friends. Someone is pushed to move to another state by a difficult political situation in their own state.

To stay in Russia on a legal basis, foreigners must go through several official procedures. One of them is the registration of a temporary residence permit (RVP), which allows you to live in the country for a long time, and then obtain a residence permit. RVP is a stamp that is put in a foreigner's passport (see the figure below). Stateless persons (stateless persons) receive a TRP in the form of a separate paper of the established form.

photo: RVP for foreign citizens (left) and stateless persons (right)

The RVP is valid for 3 years, the possibility of further extension is not provided. During this time, the migrant must resolve issues with his status, and apply for a residence permit or. Although certain persons, which include citizens of Belarus, Turkmenistan and highly qualified specialists, can bypass the stage of registration of a temporary residence permit and immediately become holders of a residence permit.

The legislation of the Russian Federation establishes the circle of migrants who are entitled to receive a temporary residence permit. These include foreigners, both living in Russia and abroad. Also, a child or an incapacitated migrant can acquire the status of a “temporary resident in the Russian Federation” if the persons responsible for them submit an application. To obtain a TRP, a migrant must prepare certain documentation and write a petition in the prescribed form.

What does RVP give?


Restrictions

Despite the significant advantages, the owner of the RVP, however, is limited in some rights.

RVP quota

RVP is issued within the established quota. It is approved for the coming calendar year for each subject of the country separately. The number of quotas depends on the capabilities of a particular region to receive and equip a certain number of migrants.

In 2018, Russia granted 90,360 permits (in 2017 - there were 110,880), which are divided among all regions. Most of the quotas are allocated by Moscow (5000), Samara (3800), Rostov (3000), Novosibirsk (3000), Belgorod (2700), Tula (2000) regions, Krasnodar Territory (3500). Typically, the denser a region is populated, the fewer quotas it is able to allocate.
The Central Federal District allocated 28,150 permits for 2017. North-West - 6610, Southern Federal District - 10400, North-Caucasian - 7050, Volga Federal District - 15000, Uralsky - 4950, Siberia - 13270, Far East - 4930.

If the quota is exhausted, then applications for the issuance of a TRP will not be accepted. Then it becomes impossible to obtain permission, with the exception of some situations, which will be discussed below.

Taking into account the special status of Moscow, it is most difficult to get into the capital quota, in 2018 only 2,000 units were allocated (St. Petersburg - 1,500, Leningrad Region - only 400). It is clear that with such a strict restriction, not everyone will be able to become holders of a temporary residence permit in Moscow or St. Petersburg. Therefore, it is advisable to submit the documentation from the beginning of the year. The quota for each subject is set annually and it is always exhausted at a different rate.

An application for a Moscow temporary residence permit is submitted to the FMS (GUVM of the Ministry of Internal Affairs) of Moscow (official website: //www.fmsmoscow.ru/). For other subjects of the Russian Federation - the corresponding regional sites). There is no need to write a separate document for granting a quota. Only an application for a RVP and certain documentation are submitted, which will be discussed below. If the application is accepted, it means that the number of quotas has not yet been exhausted.

RVP registration procedure

The legal provisions of foreigners in the Russian Federation are regulated by the law No. ФЗ-115 dated July 25, 2002. After the adoption of the legislative act, changes have been made more than once. The law contains general and special norms, which together create a solid legal basis for the procedure for issuing a temporary residence permit for foreign citizens.

  • RVP registration and fingerprinting procedure.

RVP for marriage

International conventions have approved the principle of family unity, which is based on the fact that members of one family should have equal rights in order to continue their happy existence. That's why the spouse or spouse of a citizen of the Russian Federation receives a TRP without a quota according to a simplified procedure. To obtain a temporary residence permit for marriage, you will need documents:

  1. Application of the established form, completed in duplicate.
  2. Photos (2 pcs.).
  3. Marriage certificate, which is registered in the Russian Federation.
  4. A document proving registration at the place of residence of a citizen of the Russian Federation.

RVP without quota

An exhaustive list of persons who can receive a TRP without taking into account the quota:

  • the migrant was born in the RSFSR and was a citizen of the Soviet Union;
  • the migrant was born in the Russian Federation;
  • the migrant is married to a citizen of the Russian Federation, who has a place of residence in the country;
  • a foreigner is retired or disabled and has children - citizens of the Russian Federation;
  • the migrant has a parent of retirement age (disabled) - filed by the Russian Federation;

  • the migrant has minor children - filed by the Russian Federation;
  • the foreigner is a minor and the RVP is drawn up simultaneously with the receipt of a similar document from his parent, which belongs to one of the above categories;
  • a migrant is a child, provided that one of his parents is submitted by the Russian Federation;
  • a foreigner is a migrant, but is recognized as incompetent, and one of his parents is a citizen of the Russian Federation.

Migrants from these categories submit a similar package of documents (like foreigners issuing a permit taking into account quotas) and at the same time attach documentary evidence of the possibility of issuing a permit without taking into account the quota. Among them:

  1. State program participant certificate;
  2. confirmation of family ties with a citizen of the Russian Federation;
  3. birth certificate, marriage certificate and so on.

Exam for RVP

Every migrant who wants to obtain a temporary residence permit, residence permit and citizenship is required to pass a comprehensive exam, which is held at testing centers located at various educational institutions. The cost of the exam for the RVP is 5300 rubles. In case of unsuccessful passage, the money will not be returned. During the exam, the migrant will have to pass tests in the Russian language, the history of Russia and the basics of the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Requirements for documents and some nuances

All documentation drawn up in a foreign language must be translated into Russian. Copies of documents must be certified by a notary.

Statement

The application is filled in personally by the migrant. Parents and guardians do this for children and the disabled. Data can be entered both manually and using technical means (computers, typewriters). Blots, corrections, dashes in columns and abbreviations are excluded. If the information is entered by hand, then the text should be clear and easy to read.

If it turns out that the number of free points in the form is not enough, the data can be placed on a separate blank sheet as an attachment to the application, on it you should indicate your name, surname and patronymic.

The answers should be comprehensive. It is advisable to answer all questions in detail and provide the maximum amount of information. Try not to be mistaken, indicating the numbers and dates of issue of all documents. The data that the migrant enters into the application form will be carefully checked by various services: the tax inspectorate, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the FSB. Therefore, it is important not to withhold any information (for example, the presence of various kinds of offenses, issued fines). Just imagine that the hidden information will emerge in a year or two, and by this time you have already received a residence permit or citizenship. All issued documents can be canceled.

international passport

Ideally, the passport should be valid for another 2.5-3 years, this is important if the migrant is going to become the owner of a residence permit in the future. The document should have 3-4 blank pages, such a moment is important for foreigners planning to often leave the Russian Federation.

In all documents (passport, migration card, visa, marriage and birth certificates, etc.), the surname, name and patronymic must be written the same so that this does not cause questions in the future.

Photo

The photo should have standard dimensions for documents - 3.3x4.5 cm. Black and white or color is possible. The photo is taken clear, without hats. If, according to various convictions of the migrant, the headdress must be present, then an exception is made. If a foreigner wears glasses, then the photo should be taken with their use, however, it is forbidden to wear glasses with tinted glasses, behind which the eyes are not visible.

Medical board

Each migrant must provide a medical certificate of the absence of dangerous infectious diseases, a medical certificate stating that the person being examined does not suffer from drug addiction and a certificate of the absence of HIV infection.

Certificates are issued after passing the medical examination. Please note that it is not possible to be examined in any clinic, but only in authorized healthcare institutions. Usually their list is posted on the stands in the FMS.

If a migrant arrived in the country without a visa, he can provide a medical certificate and a certificate of absence of HIV within 30 days from the date of application and basic documents.

Medical examination for a RVP is a paid event, its the cost for adults is 2900 rubles, for children - 2500 rubles. The whole procedure, starting from the moment of payment and ending with the issuance of certificates, takes no more than two days.

Receiving RVP and fingerprinting procedure

Within 2-6 months (depending on the grounds), the FMS is obliged to consider the application and make a decision about which the migrant is informed in writing or by phone. In case of a positive decision, the foreigner receives a TRP and can safely reside in Russia for 3 years. A prerequisite for issuing a document is the passage of the fingerprint registration procedure, that is, taking fingerprints.

Registration at the place of residence

The next stage is registration at the place of residence. A foreigner can register both in his own living space and in the apartment of relatives, acquaintances (with their consent, of course) or in rented housing. Registration is required for the placement of children in kindergartens and schools. It is also possible to use free medical services and visit the clinic only with registration.

Obtaining a multiple entry visa

Foreigners who plan to frequently leave the Russian Federation in the future can apply for a multiple-entry visa by submitting the necessary documents to the FMS. The visa is issued for three years. The document allows you to leave the borders of Russia an unlimited number of times, while you should not forget that absence from the country for more than six months may become the basis for canceling the TRP.

Obtaining TIN

Foreigners with visa-free entry can obtain a certificate of tax registration at the UFSA at their place of residence. Although obtaining it is a voluntary event, for migrants who plan to register as individual entrepreneurs or legal entities, the TIN is one of the mandatory documents. To obtain it, you will need to fill out an appropriate application and attach copies of your passport and a previously issued RVP.

Informing the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation

After receiving the TRP, the migrant's duties include annually informing the Migration Service about the fact of his residence in the Russian Federation.

RVP for citizens of some countries of the Near Abroad

In a number of cases, when there are legal grounds, citizens of the Near Abroad receive a TRP in a simplified form, without taking into account the quota. Migrants from the former Soviet Republics collect a package of documents similar to other foreigners. Foreigners who entered the country without a visa can issue a TRP within 60 days, in other cases, consideration of the application takes up to six months.

Belarus

For citizens of Belarus, a TRP is not required. Also, you do not need to provide any additional documents confirming special grounds for obtaining a residence permit. The right to obtain a residence permit for Belarusians arises immediately after registration at the place of residence. In addition, they do not need patents and work permits to operate.

Ukraine

A temporary residence permit for citizens of Ukraine can be issued without taking into account quotas, if there is a reason for this. For example, close relatives, a spouse who are Russian citizens live in the Russian Federation, or in the past a Ukrainian was born on the territory of the RSFSR and had USSR citizenship.

Moldova

Citizens of Moldova apply for a TRP within the quota. Exceptions apply to migrants who have married a citizen of the Russian Federation, have close relatives in Russia and under other circumstances discussed above.

Uzbekistan

Like other foreigners, citizens of Uzbekistan can apply for a TRP within the quota allocated for each constituent entity of the Russian Federation. Migrants who have relatives or were born in the Russian Federation, who have not been deported and have not violated the laws of Russia, as well as in a number of other cases, are entitled to apply for a temporary residence permit without taking into account quotas.

Prolongation of the RVP

A temporary residence permit allows you to stay in the Russian Federation for 3 years, while the migrant is territorially limited and must live in the region that issued the permit. But this does not deprive him of the right to free movement throughout Russia, with the exception of closed zones. However, a fundamental feature of the RWP is the impossibility of its extension. Please note that organizations that offer assistance in extending the RWP are most likely scammers or, at best, are not very competent (from a legal point of view) in formulating their proposals.

The legislation of the Russian Federation implies that during the period of validity of the TRP, the migrant will submit documents for a residence permit or citizenship (under certain conditions, this is possible). Note that the procedure for obtaining a temporary residence permit takes up to six months, the same amount on average is spent on issuing a residence permit. There is also some nuance: it is allowed to apply for a residence permit no later than 2-6 months before the expiration of the temporary residence permit (depending on the grounds for obtaining a residence permit). If you do not have time in the allotted period, then you will have to start the procedure for issuing a RVP again. That is, from the point of view of legislation, a temporary residence permit is a temporary document that allows a foreigner to legally stay in the country until a new status is obtained - permanently residing in Russia (residence permit) or a citizen of the Russian Federation.

After the expiration of the TRP, the migrant is obliged to leave the country, since he has no legal grounds for staying in the Russian Federation. You can apply for a new permit only after a year. That is, you will again need to collect documents, write an application, and undergo a medical examination. After the re-issuance of the permit, the three-year validity period of the TRP will be re-calculated.

The cost of the procedure for obtaining a TRP

Before applying for a temporary residence permit, a migrant must pay a state fee in the amount of 1600 rubles. To obtain a certificate of proficiency in the Russian language, a foreigner takes a comprehensive exam. Its cost is 5300 rubles. The medical examination is also a paid event. For medical certificates, you will have to pay another 2900 rubles for each adult, and 2500 rubles for a child. Thus, the final the amount that will cost a foreigner to independently register a TRP will be about 9800 rubles. This is not counting the payment for photographs, translation and certification of documents. If the RPV is issued for a minor, then his consent to reside in the Russian Federation is required. The preparation of this document is carried out by a notary, who also takes money for his services.

If you contact specialized legal agencies, the cost of obtaining a temporary residence permit will increase significantly and will average 40,000-50,000 rubles per person. So it makes sense to understand all the intricacies of the RVP registration procedure and start preparing the necessary documents yourself.

    I have been married to a South African citizen for 12 years now and have been living in South Africa for permanent residence. We now have 2 children, 9 years old and 11 months old. Children in the process of obtaining Russian citizenship at the embassy in a simplified manner. I am also a citizen of the Russian Federation. The situation is developing so that we made a decision to move to Russia for permanent residence, but we faced a big problem. This problem is now not legally solvable for my wife, and this is an exam in Russian, history and law. The fact is that she does not yet speak Russian and I am sure that while living in Russia she will learn Russian as I once learned English when I arrived in South Africa. By the way, there were no such exams in South Africa. Is this a violation of the constitutional rights of children and spouses to be together? It's just that if you follow the law, she won't be able to get a TRP and she won't be able to be with her family. I think that my situation is not often encountered and it is simply that no one took it into account when making amendments to the Federal Law.

    Guys, I'm very funny! Putin said that there are no people in Russia just to defend the border. The West is choking with saliva as it wants to take away land from Russia 150 million and more people live in the Chinese skyscraper!))) You will now simply be swept away by all the peoples of the world, a horde is gathering against you that wants to and believe me they will figure out how to defeat Russia. Yes, you yourself have to run after people so that they would move to live with you and, first of all, for the Russians, and you don't know what is happening. And to be proud of my bureaucracy. '' When I saw this, I looked at what car of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in a provincial town was driving for something, but here I am second class, and in Russia for the rest of my life I will walk on hind legs before the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the rest of my life. And what am I changing for?

    Dilya Said:

    Good evening everyone! I myself recently received citizenship)) And I want my dad to receive a RVP. We were in Novoslobodsky to receive a ticket. Our turn will come up only in a month. I myself went through all this, there is no such thing that in one day they made you a temporary residence permit or residence permit, such offers are cheating. Do not fall for this, I will very much forgive you if you need a craft, it is sold everywhere, I was also recommended, but it will only work until you are detained and checked. So think before you spend money cheating. Where you do not pass a medical examination, there is a lie. First you need to take a coupon, then go through a medical examination, then if you have a diploma, then you don't need an exam, if you don't have a diploma, you need to take an exam on your knowledge of the Russian language. This whole procedure will be easy if you have all the documents. Good luck!!!

    Svetlana Said:

    Who cares, yesterday in one day my husband received a ready-made RVP, underwent fingerprinting and made registration for three years ...
    There were not very many people, the work is proceeding quickly and accurately, we really liked it! Since we came with the owner of the home, only the passports of my husband and the owner of the home, a statement from the husband and the consent of the owner (the inspector gave the forms), a document on the ownership of the apartment and a receipt of state duty 350 rubles were required for registration.
    And then the statistical standard was filled out. That's all, no form 9 By the way, the inspectors were all extremely kind, pleasant young women, they did not find fault with anything.

    • Victoria Said:

      Svetlana, please tell me, honey. did your husband take the commission and exams in the Russian language?
      I rummaged through the entire Internet and still cannot understand the procedure for obtaining a TRP when marrying a citizen of the Russian Federation.
      If not difficult, please describe what documents you need.
      Thanks.)))

      • Victor Said:

        Svetlana's husband was able to arrange everything in one day, since he had already received permission for a temporary residence permit. You do not need to take the exam if you graduated from a secondary educational institution in the USSR or after 1991 in Russia. If you have any questions, write to me on the soap. There is a lot of information on the Internet, but it is very difficult to link it together.

        • Margarita Said:

          Victor! I also wanted to ask you about the delivery of copies in Russian. the girl graduated from high school, college in Uzbekistan, a year ... in 2009-10, probably ... They apply for a temporary residence permit, her husband is Russian

          Evgeny Petrovich Said:

          Upon receipt of the TRP, they were not warned of the need to notify about the residence. He lived for two years, began to collect documents for a residence permit and found that having received a residence permit, such a notification was necessary. We began to study the rules for obtaining a TRP and were taken aback !!! submission of the next notification. But the fright, and then my sister died. In general, the second term was overdue already. But you will not prove to anyone that you were not warned ... Yes, they warned you that you can leave for half a year and no more. What to do? years, such stress is fraught.
