New forms of registration of foreign citizens in the Russian Federation were approved

The new order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs introduces a new form of notification of the arrival of a foreign citizen at the place of stay and an application form for registration of a foreign citizen at the place of residence.

The order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation dated March 24, 2020, No. 180 “On Amendments to the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia dated July 30, 2019 No. 514” was registered with the Ministry of Justice on 02.06.2020.

This order makes some changes to the procedure for migration registration of foreign citizens on the territory of the Russian Federation.

First of all, the changes are due to the fact that in most cases foreigners will be given an unlimited residence permit in the Russian Federation, and therefore the previous forms of registration for migration registration had to be finalized.

For that reason, the new Order approved new forms of registration forms for foreign citizens in the Russian Federation, in particular the notification form on the arrival of a foreign citizen at the place of residence and the application form to register at the place of residence.

From now on, foreign citizens with an unlimited residence permit will be able to register at their place of residence for an unlimited period, thus, the registration mark will not indicate the end date of the registration.
