Passport exchange in 20 years

Immediately after the celebration of the twentieth anniversary, you have to think about replacing the civil passport. After all, if you follow the letter of the law, then waking up the next morning, after the birthday you will find among your documents an invalid (overdue) passport. Yes exactly! He is no longer suitable for identification. But do not be discouraged, the exchange of a passport at the age of 20 is not that complicated, but it's better not to delay it. The use of an invalid passport is an administrative offense and, accordingly, fraught with consequences. If you do not make a passport exchange in time in 20 years, the fine can reach one and a half to two thousand of your blood rubles. And the state allocated only 30 days for swinging. Therefore, hurry up!

First you need to collect the necessary set of documents. First, you should pay a state duty for the replacement of your passport and, of course, save the receipt. Then go to the photographer and take two photos. Their required size is 35x45 cm, but in the studio it is enough to say that you are photographed on your passport. And, thirdly, write a statement that you need a passport exchange in 20 years.

It is the procedure for filing an application to consider in more detail. The simplest and most effective way is to file an electronic application without leaving the computer. To do this, just go to the Internet portal state services, find the tab FMS and act according to the instructions on the site. You will be given the day when you should come to the OMS, and remind you that you need to have an old passport with you, a receipt for payment and two photos. But this method is appropriate only for those who have already registered and used this resource. Otherwise, you will have to wait too long for confirmation of registration.

For those who did not have time to evaluate the innovation, the traditional method of personal treatment is more suitable. For its implementation, it is enough to go to the nearest FMS body or to the multifunctional center of state services, which have opened a lot in the cities of Russia. Documents for the exchange of passports in 20 years there will be required the same as above.

You should also take into account the deadlines from the moment you submit your application, after which you will become the owner of the treasured passport book. All is well, if you applied for a passport replacement at your place of permanent residence. Then the exchange period is only ten days. But if you study or work in another city and have started exchanging passports in 20 years, you will have to wait until two months for it to be delivered. And, in order not to get into an unpleasant situation when it's impossible to prove your identity, immediately, when applying for an exchange, ask for a temporary certificate. You must write it out for a period until the passport is waiting for an exchange.

There are two common misconceptions about the procedure for changing the passport. Girls, having married before their twentieth birthday and changing the name, do not consider it necessary to change it again. This is fundamentally wrong. Passport exchange in 20 years is obligatory. But the guys who did not get up on time for military registration, may require a military ticket or a written ticket . You should know that such a demand from officials is illegal, and you must issue a passport in any case, based on the list of documents provided. The only surprise that can be given to employees of the FMS during the issue of a passport is a notice of the need to register with the military enlistment office. But the notice is not a summons, read and take note. It is not required to immediately escape and surrender to the military enlistment office.

And, most importantly, take care of your passport. The next exchange will take place in a quarter of a century, and it is very difficult to restore it due to loss or in connection with damage.
