Change of expired passport

An internal document of a Russian is valid for certain time periods, therefore, upon reaching 20 and 45 years old it is important not to forget to change your expired passport. Registration and issuance is carried out in accordance with administrative regulations and Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation No. 605 of 1997.

Requirements for the internal passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation

The appearance and content of the document is approved by law. It contains the following information:

• Full name;
• Floor;
• Date and place of birth;
• Registration, marks of deregistration and registration in another place;
• Conscription (for persons over 18);
• Information about civil status (registration and divorce);
• Children under 14;
• List of previous passports;
• Data on additional certificates used abroad (foreign, diplomatic, others).

Additional information - marks about the blood group, Rh factor and TIN are made at will.

Important! Allowed for entering information, marks are regulated by the "Regulations on the passport of the Russian Federation". Records not named in the law invalidate the document.

The identity card of an individual of the Russian Federation must be updated in a timely manner. Certificates are replaced at the age of:

• 20 years;
• 45 years.

The law provides Russians 30 days to submit replacement documents when they reach the specified thresholds.

A passport that was not changed in a timely manner, which does not correspond to the actual age, is considered invalid. A citizen presenting an expired ID that does not correspond to his age may receive administrative sanctions (if 30 days have already passed). The document issued at the age of 45 is no longer replaced.

Selected cases:

• Citizens on urgent service have their passports replaced after going into the reserve upon arrival home;
• After a change of civil status with a change of surname, there must also be a change;
• You need to get a new document after changing your gender;
• If your appearance has changed dramatically (for example, after plastic surgery);
• If inaccuracies, typos and errors are found, it is replaced free of charge and urgently;
• After theft or loss, a new certificate is issued - with the submission of an application describing all the circumstances.

The passport should look normal and should be stored with care. It cannot be pledged and generally given into the wrong hands, with the exception of situations specified in the law.

Consequences of untimely replacement of the passport

Missing the replacement deadline is regarded as an administrative offense. A citizen convicted of this offense is subject to a fine of up to 1,500 rubles. The amount of the fine is determined by the authorized person.

In the future, a citizen can start collecting papers to replace a passport, while a mark on the payment of fines is put on the application.

For living on the territory of the Russian Federation without an identity card, an amount of up to 5,000 rubles is collected. The amount of the fine depends on the area where the offender lives.

Penalties and administrative punishment

If your passport is lost or stolen, you should immediately apply for a new one. At the same time, the citizen is imposed a fine of up to 300 rubles. The amount may be reduced, depending on the circumstances, or not charged at all.

Circumstances mitigating administrative responsibility

Not fined:

• Pregnant;
• Minors;
• Those who violated the deadlines for objective reasons or for health reasons;
• Citizens who voluntarily confess to committing a violation.

Aggravating circumstances

Under certain circumstances, the fine is increased:

• If there are several suspicious persons;
• If a citizen has already been caught with the same violation.

Where to go to replace an expired passport

A citizen submits documents to the department of the migration service. Previously, this issue was dealt with by the FMS, but at the moment its functions have been transferred to the Ministry of Internal Affairs - the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation.

Applications and papers are accepted at the MFC, but it should be borne in mind that in this case, the production time may be slightly increased. The branch closest to the house is selected.

Online on the website of the State Services, a questionnaire is filled out for registration - this is equivalent to writing an application. After consideration, you will have to visit the GUVM office with the originals of the papers and get a certificate.

Additional points:

1. If a citizen cannot take care of his passport on his own, the help of an intermediary is allowed with a certified power of attorney;
2. If a citizen is incapacitated, you can use the right to seek help from an official - to collect and submit documents;
3. The law contains a list of persons who have the right to take actions in the direction of replacing a passport without the presence of the recipient of the document. They do not require a power of attorney:

• Employees of boarding schools for veterans, disabled people, elderly people;
• Employees of schools and other educational institutions for children without parents;
• Employees of commercial organizations with their own residential buildings;
• Other persons who have been given similar powers by law.

Attention! If there is a need for an urgent use of the passport while the process of its production is in progress, you can take a certificate in form No. 2P. This temporary document has the functionality of a permanent identity and can completely replace it.

For example, if a document is stolen, you will have to take a certificate from the police.

The stated terms are maximum, which means that the passport may be ready earlier.

Reference! If an employee does not accept documents without reason, you need to complain to the head of the department. You can also direct complaints to higher management or take legal action.
