What documents are needed to register a child? How to register a child in an apartment at the place of residence of the father or mother - a package of documents and the procedure for registration. What documents are needed to register a child?


Registration is the basis of the state's population census. Minor children are no exception.


Family code this is the one normative act, which contains a direct indication of the impossibility of implementation separately from the parents or one of them until the child reaches the age of fourteen years.

For registering a child at his place of residence The following options exist:

  • With both parents (at their place of residence);
  • With one of the parents (mother or father);
  • With other immediate family.

If everything is clear with the registration of a child with both parents at their place of residence, then the option of registration with one of them raises many questions.

Registration with one of the parents (mother or father) is carried out if they live separately, or one of the parents has a registration and the other has a permanent one.

In the latter option, the child will be registered with the parent whose registration is permanent.

A child can be registered with the father only if he is recorded in the appropriate column in the birth certificate.

The state currently gives priority to who the child should be registered with only if the parents have significant differences in quality in favor of the one who has better conditions. If they are the same for everyone, the contract regime between them comes into force.

In practice, there are often cases when parents have different registration addresses, the child is registered with one of them, and they all live together at a third address, where temporary registration has been issued for everyone (if necessary).

In the same case, if the parents cannot agree among themselves on the place of registration of the child, this issue will be resolved by the guardianship and trusteeship authorities or the court in the appropriate proceedings.

Registration with relatives

Registration with other close relatives, except parents, family and civil law is provided only if the child cannot be registered with the parents for some reason.

The list of such reasons may include:

  • Deprivation of both parents in relation to their children;
  • Purpose close relative guardian of the child due to the inability of the parents to fulfill their immediate responsibilities due to health reasons (both physical and mental), as well as in the event that the child’s parents are declared dead or missing by a court decision;
  • If both parents have only temporary registration or living conditions do not allow the child to live with them (for example, the residential building in which the parents are registered is recognized as unsafe or subject to demolition).

This list of cases when a child can be registered separately from his parents, but with his close relatives, is not exhaustive, since in each problematic case a decision is made directly by the guardianship and trusteeship authorities or the court taking into account all existing circumstances.

Temporary registration

If the parents’ registration is temporary, then the child’s registration at the same address will also have temporary status. At the same time, the owner’s consent to registration will not need.

However, for a child in public housing (for example, under a contract social hiring), permission from authorized persons will be required municipal authorities(even if the parents also have temporary registration in the same housing). No other permits will be required.

To obtain temporary registration, a child will need to complete the following steps:

  • Prepare what is necessary for registering the child at the place of stay;
  • Send these documents to the migration authorities at the place of actual residence of the child and his parents;
  • Come within the timeframe specified by the employee of such authorities to receive

If the child has permanent registration, for example, in another region, a request will be sent there to clarify the information about whether the child lives there with parents or close relatives or actual place stay is true.

Registration of temporary registration without parental participation

Temporary registration for a child can also be issued without the participation of parents. However, this opportunity is provided by the legislator only in a few cases:

  • or the child has a guardian appointed by authorized bodies,
  • or the child is in specialized institutions for minors due to the absence of parents and close relatives to whom he can be transferred for care.

In addition, such registration is possible only if there is a need, for example, in connection with moving to another region for a period of more than ninety days.

Registration of temporary registration in this case falls on the shoulders of employees of authorized bodies, whose responsibilities include monitoring compliance with the rights of a minor (guardianship and trusteeship authorities or the management of the institution where the child is located).

The ability to represent rights in this case is assigned by the legislator either to the management of such an institution or to employees of the guardianship and trusteeship authorities.

However, such a representation is only possible if the child has not reached the age of fourteen. From the moment of turning fourteen years old, a child can independently, but with the consent authorized persons, represent your interests, including regarding the registration of temporary registration at your place of stay.

Possible difficulties

When registering temporarily for a minor without the participation of parents, it is possible the following difficulties:

  • Refusal to register due to lack of confirmation of information about the possibility of involving parents in the registration process (before the child reaches the age of fourteen);
  • due to the non-compliance with the necessary requirements of the characteristics of the premises in which registration must be carried out;
  • Refusal to register at the place of temporary location due to an incorrectly prepared package of accompanying documents (the entire package is not fully prepared, or some documents are prepared improperly, for example, if there are parents who permanently work in another region and live separately from the child, To obtain a temporary registration, the child will need their notarized consent to complete such registration. The absence of notarization of this consent will be regarded as. incorrect document formatting)

A child's double surname can consist of no more than two words, joined by a hyphen when written.

    7. Where should the birth of a child born in transport be registered?

    • through the MFC or the EIRC passport office at your place of residence,

    • convenient opening hours (from 9:00 to 20:00 daily),
    • possibility of remote recording,
    • availability of an electronic queue.
