Features of registration after receiving a TRP

Every foreigner intending to live in the Russian Federation for a long time must obtain a temporary residence permit. At the same time, after receiving the TRP, the migrant must also perform a number of related procedures, the first of which is registration at the place of residence.

Registration required

2. Upon arrival at a new location no later than within 7 days (calculated from the date of the move) register again at the place of residence with the local authorized division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Re-registration is almost the same as the above procedure.Exception - in the list of submitted documents, you must include the corresponding document-basis for moving to another region.

Penalties

Ignoring, as well as avoiding the fulfillment of the obligation in question is fraught with administrative responsibility for the migrant and entails the imposition of a fine in the amount of from 2 to 5 thousand / r, in some situations - with the subsequent expulsion from the Russian Federation.

In this case, the amount of the fine increases to the limit:

• From 5 to 7 thousand / r - if such a violation has been committed repeatedly within 1 year, either on the territory of Moscow, St. Petersburg or adjacent regions;
• From 7 to 10 thousand - with the simultaneous presence of both of these conditions.

The fictitious registration of a foreigner at the place of residence presupposes criminal prosecution and is punishable by:

• A fine from 100 to 500 thousand rubles, or in the amount of the guilty person's income for three years;
• Forced labor or imprisonment up to 3 years (in some cases - with a ban on the conduct of certain activities, or the occupation of certain positions for a similar period).

The subject of a crime is a person who intentionally took direct part in the implementation of a fictitious registration (for example, a home owner or an authorized official). In this case, the perpetrator is released from criminal liability if he contributed to the disclosure of his own crime, and if it does not contain corpus delicti of other criminally punishable acts.

The passage of the considered registration is the responsibility of each owner of the RVP. Ignoring the need and / or violating the procedure for implementing this procedure is fraught with administrative measures of restraint for the migrant, up to and including expulsion from the Russian Federation.
