Replacement of passport after marriage with change of surname

Replacement of a passport after marriage refers to an unscheduled replacement of the main document of a citizen of the Russian Federation. After the registration of the marriage, the procedure must be passed to the spouse who changed his surname. In case the newlyweds took a surname different from the previous surname of the husband and wife, the passport must be changed for both spouses.

Why change the passport after the wedding?

Some people prefer not to hurry up and not to leave old documents. By the way, by law, the replacement of a passport after marriage must be made within one month from the date of marriage. After the expiry of this period, the old passport is considered invalid, and the citizen of the Russian Federation no longer has the right to use this document. And, as a consequence, can not take a loan, withdraw money from a savings account, buy a ticket for a train or plane.

And if a citizen applies to the passport office after 30 days, he will be fined up to 2500 rubles.

Registration of a new passport

The replacement of the passport with the marriage is made in the territorial offices of the FMS. The time frame for the new document depends on which department the citizen addresses : at the place of residence, the period is 10 days, if not addressed at the place of residence, up to two months.

The state fee for this service is 200 rubles. Replacement of the passport after marriage is carried out after the package of the following documents is provided:

1. Application form 1P;
2. Two photos on the passport 35 × 45, color or black and white;
3. Old passport, it is subject to confiscation;
4. Certificate of registration and other documents to confirm the marks in the passport: certificates of registration, birth certificates of children and others;
5. Certificate of surname change;
6. Receipt of payment.

The deadline for issuing a new passport starts from the day the documents are submitted to the FMS. If the deadline has passed, but there is no new passport, you should apply with a complaint to the head of the passport office.

Registration of other documents

Replacement of the passport after marriage with a change of name is only the first step, but, alas, it is far from the only one. It will be necessary to exchange many more documents, albeit without any haste. However, it must be remembered that you may have problems with the divergence of the surname in the passport and other certificates. Therefore, for the first time, it is worthwhile to wear a certificate of marriage registration in the purse as proof of personality. The list of documents that are to be replaced is quite large, and you will have to get a new passport, driver's license, TIN, insurance certificate, MHI policy, plastic cards and savings book. In order to collect all the references and get new documents, it is necessary to spend a lot of time and effort, so it becomes clear why many modern ladies want to leave the old name.

However, not everything is so terrible, because when you change your surname, you do not need to change your work book, but simply inform the employer about passport data change, and you do not need to change the certificate of ownership. And the more so it is not necessary to change a diploma or other document on education.
