What do you need to replace your passport at 45 years old?
This procedure is regulated by several legislative documents: Order No. 851 of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Government Resolution No. 828.
There are 2 reasons for updating:
- Wear and aging of the passport. Over the course of a quarter of a century, many new security systems have appeared that increase the protection of documents against forgery. If it was only assumed in 2021, the introduction of mandatory biometrics containing fingerprint data in the general civil passport is now being actively developed. Therefore, now replacement becomes necessary due to the inconsistency of the old document with the level of technology.
- Photography becomes quite outdated after 25 years. According to statistics, it is at this age that significant changes in appearance occur; as a result, the photo in the document does not at all correspond to the real person. That's why you need to change it to a new one.
After the 45th birthday, the certificate can only be renewed if the form is damaged or due to national reform. The last time something like this happened was after the collapse of the USSR, when Soviet props were changed to Russian ones.
For 2021, the list of required documents for a passport remains the same. The list includes:
- outdated passport;
- photographs 2 pcs. 35x45, if a gentleman wears glasses, then he should be wearing them in the photograph;
- a receipt confirming payment of the state duty;
- an application in the established form, it can be filled out on a computer or in writing.
If necessary, a divorce/marriage certificate must be attached to the standard set of papers to confirm marital status, documents on the birth of children, a military ID or a registration letter from the military commissariat.
Where to go
To replace your identity card, you must contact the migration department at your registration address and place of residence. If a citizen is registered in Samara but is in Moscow, then he can obtain a new passport at the department in whose service territory he temporarily resides.
It is important to understand that lack of registration cannot be grounds for refusal to replace an identity card, which is mandatory for those over 45 years of age. Although in practice, in many departments citizens are denied services, which is illegal. In addition to the migration department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you can order a replacement passport at State Services or through the MFC.
Ministry of Internal Affairs Migration Department
Previously, the FMS was responsible for issuing and replacing such documents; after the reorganization, the structure changed and now all questions should be addressed to the migration department.
The registration procedure is as follows:
- Select the nearest migration department under the Ministry of Internal Affairs to which the citizen belongs based on registration.
- Write a statement in the prescribed form.
- Provide a set of documents.
- Hand in your old passport and come back for a new one on the appointed date.
The old passport loses its validity the very next day after turning 45 years of age. Therefore, you cannot delay the registration.
If a temporary identity card is needed for the period of registration of a new document, then it is allowed to request a certificate in form No. 2P. Such papers are issued by the MFC or GUVM when applying there for a replacement.
MFC
Today, specialized multifunctional centers are open throughout the country, where citizens can go to fill out any paperwork, including replacing an outdated passport.

How long are documents stored at the MFC in 2021?
Multifunctional centers have been opened in every major population center in Russia. Their main goal was to simplify Russians' access to government services. They help save time and nerves when performing ordinary tasks. At the same time, it became possible to receive government services at the place of residence, which also makes life easier for citizens. Many people believe that the completed documents need to be picked up right away, and begin to worry if this is not possible. It is important to know how long ready-made documents are stored at the MFC, so as not to worry about the lack of time to receive ready-made forms.
- refusals and unclaimed papers – 14 days;
- archival extracts, certificates and copies – 60 days;

Grounds for refusal
The law provides for several factors in the presence of which an application for a replacement identity card may be rejected:
- if the information in the submitted application is missing or not specified, or the information provided is not true;
- an incomplete set of documents was provided;
- photographs do not meet the requirements;
- the documents are not in Russian and there is no translation;
- no citizenship;
- there is no receipt for payment of the state duty.
Otherwise, employees of the migration department or MFC have no reasons for refusing to provide services.
Responsibility for untimely replacement
The legislation determines specific deadlines for how many days in advance you need to change an outdated identity card. It is equal to the month starting from the next day after the date of birth.
It is impossible to submit documents earlier; such an opportunity is not provided for by law. If a citizen overstays this time without good reason, he will face a fine. For St. Petersburg and Muscovites, the amount of the penalty is 3-5 thousand rubles, and for the rest of the country’s population – 2-3 thousand rubles.
Renewing a passport at 45 years of age is a mandatory procedure provided for by law. If you neglect this requirement, you may receive an administrative penalty, the collection of which will be handled by the bailiff service.
How to find out if documents are ready at the MFC? Where to inspect the readiness of documents
An SMS should be sent to the mobile phone number you provided. You may not be able to get through to a single number at all. If you really can’t wait and have extra time, then add a week to the period for which you were promised to get the documents done and visit the MFC in person.
See the list of documents produced at the MFC here. Convenient service, fast, no need to stand in line and collect a lot of information. MFC works on the principle of give and receive. That is, you come to the MFC and give your documents, and then wait for a call from the MFC. The MFC has a call center where hotline operators notify the client that documents are ready or inform them about the need to supplement the package of documents. If, for good reasons, you cannot immediately pick up the documents, then they are stored at the MFC for 30 days, and then they are transferred to the archive. That is, your documents can be picked up at any time, although getting them from the archive will take a little longer.
