Mandatory state fingerprint registration and photographing are carried out by the internal affairs bodies once, without the collection of state fees, regardless of the number of entries and exits to the Russian Federation.
“Due to the fact that the mandatory state fingerprint registration and photographing are carried out by the internal affairs bodies once with the issuance of a supporting document that does not have an expiration date, foreign citizens who entered the territory of the Russian Federation before December 29, 2021, have the right to go through this procedure in advance, without waiting for the fact of departure from the Russian Federation and subsequent entry.”
If such foreign citizens fail to fulfill their responsibility to undergo mandatory state fingerprint registration, photographing, and/or medical examination, the issue of reducing their temporary stay in the Russian Federation will be considered.
