Filling out an old-style passport application form

Starting in March 2010, Russians have the opportunity to issue new generation foreign passports containing biometric data of their owners. At the same time, the documents of the previous sample were also retained. To obtain a foreign passport of the old format, first of all, it is necessary to draw up an appropriate application.

Obtaining a form for a passport without biometric data

An application for the issue of the document in question is drawn up on a two-sided questionnaire of a legally approved form.

The document template can be taken:

1. On paper - by contacting the territorial department of the Main Directorate of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation (at the place of residence, temporary stay or actual location of the applicant);
2. Electronic version - free download from the official web resources of Russian government bodies (in particular, the Ministry of Internal Affairs).

Versions of the questionnaire obtained from any other sources (including online) may not be up-to-date due to frequent amendments to the current legislation.
