Registration of the population is extremely important in Russia. It is important for ordinary citizens, and for the government. All residents of the Russian Federation must have a residence permit. Newborns including. Otherwise, parents and the baby will have serious problems. Documents for registration of a newborn should be prepared in advance. But what is useful in this or that case? And where to get the appropriate documentation? Every parent must understand all this. Then the registration procedure for the baby will bring a minimum of trouble.
Where to prescribe
First, a few words about how to properly register the baby. In the case of minors, registration is carried out quickly and without problems.
The thing is that according to the law, children must be registered with one of the legal representatives. If the parents are registered in someone else’s housing, approval of the owner for the operation is not required. And therefore, the appearance of a new tenant may come as a surprise to the owner of residential property.
Here are some things to keep in mind:
- Until the age of 14, all babies must be registered with their mom or dad or with adoptive parents.
- In the period from 14 to 18 years, it is possible, with the consent of the parents and the owner of the apartment, to register a minor with a close relative. For example, with my grandmother.
- After 18 years, citizens can register anywhere, without being “tied” to legal representatives.
What documents are needed to register a newborn? And how do you register a baby with mom or dad? We will talk about all this further.
Main paper
It is worth noting that the documents for registering a newborn baby in an apartment may be different. Their list varies depending on the situation, although not too much.
In order to register a minor with legal representatives, the following components are required:
- application for registration;
- certificate of the birth of the baby;
- passports of parents;
- certificates from the place of residence of mom and dad.
If the parents have a marriage certificate, it is also recommended to attach it. The documents required for the registration of a newborn do not end on the listed components. Sometimes the corresponding list is supplemented by certain extracts. Which ones?
Parents live together
What documents for registration of a newborn can be useful for a modern family? Suppose that the legal representatives of the baby live together. Presence of residence registration in one housing is meant.
In such circumstances, it is sufficient to bring only the previously indicated certificates. If the child has an insert on citizenship, he will also have to be brought to the registration authority. Otherwise, service may be denied. A similar situation is 100% legal.
Separation and Peaceful Solution
Documents for registering a newborn in an apartment, as a rule, are not so difficult to prepare. This applies even to cases in which parents are registered in different apartments according to their documents.
Consider a situation in which mothers and fathers agree where exactly the baby will be registered. This situation does not affect parental rights and communication with the child.
Documents for registration of a newborn to the mother need such:
- Spouse’s consent to registration is not with him;
- an extract from the passport office from the baby's father, which confirms the fact of the lack of registration in the newborn.
Consent can be obtained from a notary public or written on the back of the application for registration. The last trick is perfect if citizens go to the registration authority together to carry out the corresponding operation.
Important: do not forget about the preparation of the identity card of the second parent / adoptive parent. Without it, registration authorities will be able to refuse registration of a newborn.
If the child wants to be registered with dad, then the above certificates are provided by the mother of the baby. Otherwise, there should not be any problems.
Single mother
Documents for registration of registration of a newborn can be prepared for a modern parent in a few days. What to do if the child has a father, but the relationship with him is not confirmed? Or then, when a woman registered herself as a single mother?
With these introductory notes, the minor must only be registered with mom. Or you can prove kinship with the baby's father before contacting the registration authorities.
The status of a single mother frees from paperwork. Mom should just bring to the passport office:
- application for registration of the baby;
- birth certificates;
- extracts from your place of residence;
- insert with citizenship of the minor (if any);
- your civil passport.
That's all. On this, the documents for registering a newborn by a single mother end. All of them are better prepared in combination "copy + original".
After the divorce of parents
Sometimes it happens that immediately after the birth of the baby, the parents divorce, not having time to draw up all the initial papers for the child. The maximum is registration at the registry office.
What to do under such conditions? By law, the registration of the baby can be carried out both with mom and dad. The decision regarding the residence of the newborn is made by the court at the time of divorce. At the same time, parents can draw up a peace agreement, which will indicate with whom minors will remain.
Accordingly, if the couple divorced, the following components will be additionally useful for registering at the place of residence of a baby:
- peace agreement on the residence of children with one parent or another (if any);
- divorce court decision;
- Judge's decision regarding the determination of the place of residence of the newborn;
- state divorce certificate.
This ends the list of statements. It is advisable to discuss in advance with the spouse the place of registration of the baby and conclude a peace agreement of the established form. This technique will greatly facilitate further registration actions.
Important: if the second parent strongly disagrees with the court ruling as to who the children should live with, he can appeal. In practice, in Russia minors are almost always left with their mothers.
Deprivation of parental rights and registration
What documents for registration of a newborn are needed if one of the legal representatives was deprived of parental rights? The mentioned situation does not occur too often. Nevertheless, it is not excluded.
If the parent or other legal representative of the newborn is deprived of parental rights, registration with a negligent ancestor will be impossible.
The parent must apply with the application of the established form to the registering bodies, whose rights were not restricted or were completely canceled. With you, as additional statements, you will have to have a resolution on the deprivation of parental rights.
Disproved relationship
Documents for registering a newborn in a private house are prepared exactly the same as in the case of registration of the baby in an ordinary apartment building. The main thing is to figure out which package of certificates is suitable for the current life situation.
It happens that the baby is born, the father first recognizes his new status and prescribes the child with him. After some time, the newly made dad proves that the newborn is not from him. This is called a denial of paternity. It is carried out exclusively through the court.
If you managed to refute the relationship with the father, you have to register the baby with the mother. Help for the implementation of the task will vary depending on the situation.
For example, if the child was previously registered with the "father", you would need to bring with you:
- departure slip;
- a decision to refute paternity;
- arrival sheet.
There is nothing difficult or incomprehensible in this. If kinship with the parent is disproved, the minor will not be able to legally live with the "dad."
Where do they accept applications?
After citizens have prepared the previously listed certificates for registration of a newborn in an apartment or house, it is worth considering further actions. For example, where to apply with an application of a standard form.
You can apply for registration in various instances:
- MFC;
- Passport Office;
- passport and visa center;
- Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation;
- migration department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
- passport office of the Criminal Code or Housing Office.
You can register any person through the "State Services". But this option is extremely rare, especially in relation to newborns. We will not focus on this option.

- Fill in the application for the registration form.
- Apply with prepared statements to the migration service or other registration authority.
- At the appointed time to receive a certificate of registration of a minor.
That's all. Nothing difficult, especially if you discuss in advance with your spouse the child's place of residence on the papers.
Terms of service

How fast is the registration process? Newborns can be given the form in the established form within a few hours after the parents have submitted the appropriate request. This is a very rare occurrence.
Most often, a residence permit is issued 1-2 days. In some cases, the waiting period can be up to a week.
Important: when applying for a residence permit, parents will take away the birth certificate of the baby. This document will be given along with the form from the child’s place of residence.
Cost
Do I have to pay for registration of the baby? No. In Russia, registration at the place of residence or temporary stay is free. This rule applies to foreigners.
If the registration authorities require money to register a child in an apartment / house, you can go to court or go to the prosecutor. Authorized persons will quickly rectify the situation.
Sometimes people buy a residence permit. This is an unofficial transaction in which the homeowner registers the parents of a minor and a baby. For example, in order to queue a newborn in a particular kindergarten. The cost of such an operation is negotiated in advance. Usually it is several thousand rubles. Payment is not a state duty.
