Today, the majority of Russian citizens of various age categories already have an international passport. But many only plan to purchase it. Of course, this kind of procedure should begin with the collection of information, and above all we recommend finding out how much it will cost to obtain a passport in 2017.
Type of document
The cost of the passport will depend on its type. After all, the migration service of Russia issues documents both old and new. The difference in price is significant, since the manufacture of a biometric passport involves the use of more sophisticated equipment.
An old document is a well-known paper sample that contains personal data and a photo of the owner. The new, biometric passport includes additional parameters - fingerprints, digital photography and more detailed information.
When choosing one type or another, it should be noted that the old one will have to be replaced after 5 years; the validity of the new sample is twice as long.
State fee for biometric passport in 2017
One of the documents that you need to have with you when submitting an application for a biometric passport is a receipt of payment of state duty. The cost will depend primarily on the age of the applicant and the time of manufacture. In 2017, the price of state duty for a biometric passport remained the same as last year (the cost change occurred in 2015). Payment for adult citizens of the Russian Federation today is 3500 rubles. (in 2015 - 2500 rubles), for applicants under 14 years old - 1500 rubles. (in 2015 - 1200 rubles.)
Citizens of Russia who are registered in the Kaliningrad region are exempt from paying such a duty. This privilege also applies to residents of the Republic of Crimea.
State fee for an old-style passport
As in the situation with a biometric passport, it is desirable to provide with the application a receipt for payment of state duty. Although this requirement is no longer necessary. The presence of this receipt simply reduces the time of registration, because the employees of the migration service will not need to send a request to the bank.
In 2017, the cost of state duty on an old-fashioned document for adults is 2000 rubles, as was the case last year.
Where and how to pay the fee
There are several possible options:
- payment in the bank (including commission). The presence of a personal account is not provided;
- Internet banking. Before making a payment you need to know the full details. In this case, the receipt will be unprinted;
- payment terminal Sberbank. In the State Duty section, personal data are driven in, after which money is transferred.
To whom it is unusual to use such payments, one can apply directly to the Sberbank branch.
Important:
- in accordance with the tax code of the Russian Federation, the fee must be paid on behalf of the person to whom this service is provided;
- payment of the fee for the child’s document presupposes the presence of his initials in the Payer column. For children under 14 years of age, payments are made by their parents (or guardians) and necessarily on behalf of the child;
- Only a receipt with the bank’s stamp of payment is considered valid.
Requisites
The state payment system of Russia provides for specific details in each region that must correspond to the place of submission of all documents. At the slightest inconsistency, the migration service simply will not accept the receipt.
Details can be viewed at the local department of the Main Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or on the official website.
In the migration service, you can take the form with the already filled in data. But it is worth paying attention to the fact that budget classification codes (BCC) for minors and adults are different. When filling out the receipt, it is imperative to clarify the correspondence of the digits of the code to the applicant's age.
Payment with the help of state services
You can save time by paying a fee online. As a rule, this procedure takes only a few minutes for registered users.
Payment can be made online after receiving a notification about the date of the visit directly to the office. To do this, in your personal account, you must select the appropriate payment method:
- through QIWI wallet;
- credit card;
- by MOBI.Money;
- from your mobile phone account;
- using WebMoney.
When transferring money from a bank card, it is best to pay through the credit organization that charges the lowest amount of commission.
Fee for children's international passport
Not all parents are ready to go abroad, leaving the child in the care of relatives or relatives. And then the question arises: how much is a passport for a child?
Although the collection itself is a bit cheaper than for adults, the need for another document is additional financial costs. As for the state duty for a child's international passport, then in 2017 the price of documents was also revised.
For example, when planning to travel to another country for children, registration of an old-style passport implies the total cost of the document in the amount of 1000 rubles. for a child under 14 years old.
Some owners of the "old" passport, wanting to reduce costs, simply enter in it the child's data, while paying only 500 rubles. This possibility is provided for those adults whose child is under the age of 14.
Biometric travel passport for children will cost more - 15,000 rubles. However, many parents believe that this option is impractical - the child's appearance is changing, and therefore it is better to make a traditional, but more budget sample.
Federal fee for the replacement of passport
There are cases when you need to replace a passport:
- change of personal data;
- loss of passport;
- use of all pages of the document;
- end of term.
In contrast to the civil passport of the Russian Federation, the replacement of a foreign document is not provided. In such a situation, you will have to issue a new sample, paying a fee of 2,000 or 3,500 rubles.
Fee for urgent services
Keep in mind that the responsibilities of the migration service do not include expedited registration of passports for a fee. As an exception, there may be only emergency cases: illness or death of a loved one; emergency treatment outside the country, etc. In such a situation, you can urgently issue a passport, and payment will be made in accordance with the established state duty. After 3 working days the document will be fully prepared.
Additional expenses
In addition to paying the fee itself, there will be a small additional cost in the process. So, together with the originals, the applicant will also need some copies of the documents (employment record, civil passport).
In addition, you need to allocate funds for photography. The requirements for this type of photo are high, so it’s best to take a photo in a photo studio. The average cost of services in the capital - 250 rubles. Digital photo on a biometric passport is made in the very unit GUVM MIA.
