What is the fine for an expired passport at 20 and 45 years

Amount of fine for expired passport

If, after the expiration of 30 days after the marriage, the passport is not replaced, you will have to pay a fine of 2000-3000 rubles for the violation. As for cities of federal significance, which are Moscow and St. Petersburg, a fine of 3,000 to 5,000 rubles is established for an expired document.

The amount of the fine can be found out as a result of a visit to the migration service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation: the inspector will draw up a protocol in which the exact amount will be indicated.

Exemption from payment of penalties

A fine for untimely replacement of a passport when changing a surname in 2021 may not be imposed. A judge or other person who is authorized to decide a case of an offense, in accordance with Art. 2.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, has the right to release a citizen from administrative liability if the offense is minor (for example, missing a deadline by several days). Instead of imposing a fine, a verbal reprimand may be issued.

Procedure for replacing a passport

If a citizen applied to the migration service or the Compulsory Medical Insurance Fund at the place of residence/registration, or location (for example, the document expired when the person was on a business trip) within a month from the date of expiration of the passport, then a fine for overstaying the passport cannot be imposed, otherwise It makes sense to appeal the actions of service employees.

When replacing a passport, the following documents are required:

• Expired passport
• Application for a replacement passport using the Federal Migration Service form
• 2 passport photos
• Confirmation of payment for the new form
• Military ID for those liable for military service

• If you are married or have children, you must take with you birth certificates of children and marriage, as well as divorce, if there is such a fact
• House books or documents confirming property ownership for registration

What to do if your passport is expired

If your passport is expired, you must contact the Migration Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. You should prepare:

• 2 photographs of the established format;
• application for replacement of a document (form 1P);
• marriage registration certificate;
• a receipt confirming payment of the state duty;
• house book/apartment card to confirm registration at a specific address.

In the Department of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, upon delay of an identity document, a resolution on an administrative offense is drawn up and a fine is imposed. You will need to go to the inspector with a receipt for repayment of the foreclosure.

Next, the replacement of the invalid document is carried out in the prescribed manner within 10 days (at the place of residence) or 1 month (with temporary registration or in the absence of it).

When do you need to change your passport?

In accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation, every citizen is obliged to change his old passport to a new one upon reaching 20 and 45 years of age. Of course, this does not mean that a person must appear at the passport office directly on his birthday.

If a citizen does not submit documents to change his identity card within 30 days, he is subject to a fine. The time during which the passport will be produced is not taken into account, since the procedure may take two months if a person receives the document not at his place of residence, but where he is currently located.

If he submits an application to the FMS office at his place of residence, then the identity card will be ready within 10 working days.

Where to pay the fine

The fine when changing your passport (when changing your last name) can be paid in two ways:

• at the bank's cash desk;
• via terminal.

If you prefer the first option, you will need to take a special receipt from the bank branch and fill it out according to the sample provided, entering the details and your personal data. The cashier will check that the form is filled out correctly, after which the citizen will only have to pay the established amount of the administrative penalty.

When paying a fine for a passport when changing your last name in a payment terminal, first of all you will need to understand the program. You won’t be able to do this quickly the first time, so it’s best to immediately seek help from a consultant.

The bank employee will help you make the payment and 2 checks will be issued: one for the payment that was made and the second which is the paid receipt.

When is a fine imposed?

Let us remind you under what circumstances it is necessary to replace your passport in order to avoid sanctions. After that, we’ll look at the fine for an expired passport. It should be recalled that, on the basis of Russian Government Decree No. 828 dated July 8, 1997, Russians receive their first passport at the age of 14.

Then the document must be replaced at 20 and 45 years. In addition to these mandatory deadlines, reasons may arise that require obtaining a new document. These include the following:

1. Loss or damage.
2. Changes in the document: last name, first name, patronymic, place of birth, gender, appearance.
3. Inaccuracy or technical error when filling out.

If one of the above reasons is present, the passport loses its validity and becomes invalid. The amount of the fine for an expired passport is the same as for a damaged document, unless there are aggravating circumstances.

You have 30 days to receive a new document. This period also applies to persons who are 14, 20, 45 years old. After the specified time, the offender is issued a fine.

With an expired passport, a person will not be able to:

• move freely around the country;
• carry out trade transactions;
• perform banking transactions;
• participate in inheritance and gift processes.

The nuances of paying a fine

To pay the fine, 60 days are established, calculated from the moment the order is sent to the violator. There are several ways to pay a fine for an expired passport.

• through a bank, including online;
• using a payment terminal;
• Internet using an electronic wallet.

The authenticity of payment is confirmed by a receipt, the receipt of which is mandatory. Since it serves as evidence of the removal of an administrative penalty for an offense.

When an official, accepting an old passport for exchange, did not notice that it was expired, Article 4.5 of the Code of Administrative Offenses applies. It limits the collection period to two months.

Expert opinion

Lawyer with 6 years of experience. Specialization: family law. More than 3 years of experience in defense in court.

After which the statute of limitations expires, which means that the possibility of bringing the perpetrator to justice is eliminated. This is not the only option to avoid a fine for an expired passport.

Other options will be discussed next.

Amount of sanctions

In case of loss or damage, even if the citizen met the deadline, a fine is imposed in the amount of 100 - 300 rubles. However, in case of delay, everything is much more serious. The fine for an expired passport of 20 years or 45 years is charged in the same amount and does not depend on the age of the offender.

In fact, according to Art. 19.15 of the Code of Administrative Offenses, a fine is awarded not for violating the terms of the exchange, but for the fact that a person was staying at his place of residence with an invalid passport.

To apply this article, law enforcement agencies must provide irrefutable evidence confirming this fact. In fact, an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs will give you a receipt for paying the fine, and then accept an application for replacing an expired passport along with a receipt for paying the fine.

Penalties range from 2,000 to 3,000 rubles. For residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg they vary from 3 to 5 thousand rubles. As you can see, how much the fine for an expired passport is depends on the region of residence.

The specific amount (within the specified range) is determined by the official authorized to perform these actions.

If the stay under a document that has expired does not exceed a week, you can ask for the cancellation of the sanction or its mitigation, citing Article 2.9 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation.

Methods of paying a fine

With the development of technology, you can pay a fine in different ways. A person has the right to choose the most convenient for himself:

1. The most common payment method is to contact a branch of any bank. You must bring the details on the organization’s letterhead, indicate your personal data, pay the cashier and receive a receipt indicating that everything has been paid.
2. Pay the fine through self-service terminals.
3. You can make payments using online banking.

When making a payment using any of the above options, the main thing is to provide the details used to make the payment. You can find out this information at the local branch of the Main Department of Migration Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Is it possible to appeal the decision?

If a citizen is not satisfied with how much the fine will be for an expired passport, then they can contact a higher authority. If you are confident in your innocence or one of the mitigating circumstances listed above is triggered, then you can appeal the decision on a monetary penalty. To do this, you need to file a complaint with a higher authority or district court within 10 days after receiving it (Article 30.3 of the Administrative Code).

The text of the complaint is written in any form.

1. The N of the resolution, the amount, and the date of issue are indicated.
2. Documents confirming innocence are attached.
3. Based on all the evidence, a request is made to remove the sanction or extend the deadline for its payment.

The application must indicate the address and telephone number of the applicant. After writing the complaint, it is sent by registered mail to the place of consideration. A complaint against a passport office employee can be written to the district prosecutor using a form similar to the previous one.

The period for consideration of a claim is from 15 to 30 days. During this period, the time for paying the fine is suspended. Now you know what the fine is if you don’t change your passport on time, and also what to do in such a situation.

What measures are taken for non-payment?

If the required amount is not paid within the prescribed period, a fine is filed on the basis of Art. 20.25 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, the following disciplinary measures may be taken:

• monetary penalty in double the amount of the order;
• arrest for 15 days;
• assignment of forced labor for up to 50 hours;

The listed penalties are not grounds for non-payment of a fine. They only aggravate the guilt of the offender.

Sometimes penalties may not be applied, postponed, or reduced.

Amount of penalties

All citizens without exception are required to change the main identification document of a citizen of the Russian Federation.

The fine for an expired passport is provided for in Article 19.15 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, it is called “Residence of a citizen of the Russian Federation without an identity document.”

When a person turns 20 or 45 years old, or when a surname or other data changes, the passport becomes invalid.

And if it is invalid, then this is equivalent to its absence, therefore a fine for replacing a passport at the wrong time is lawfully imposed.

The amount of the fine if you have not changed your passport at 20 or 45 years of age ranges from 2,000 to 3,000 thousand rubles . But for residents of federal cities, the maximum fine is 5,000 rubles.
