A passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation is a fundamental document proving the identity of a person living in the territory of the Russian Federation. A passport is obtained by a citizen who has reached the age of 14 and lives in the territory of the Russian Federation.
Registration and replacement of a passport by the Federal Migration Service at the place of residence, at the place of stay or at the place of citizens' appeal is carried out in accordance with the procedure established by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation.
To obtain a passport, you must come to the passport office, having with you:
