How to Register at the Place of Stay

Registration ✅ Answered

Question

Hello. I am a foreign citizen who has arrived in Russia and I want to understand how to properly register at my place of stay. What documents are needed and what should I do if I am staying with acquaintances?

Answer

This issue should be resolved by the person you are staying with.

The property owner or host needs to contact the MFC, MVD, or submit a notification through an available official method. They will advise on the specific documents required for your situation.

Typically, you will need:

  1. Passport of the foreign citizen.
  2. Migration card.
  3. Documents for the accommodation.
  4. Passport of the host.
