• new Russian passport with updated data;
• details of the state duty or receipt of its payment;
• if you have a valid passport, hand over it;
• photos to get an old sample;
• fingerprint for biometric;
• in some cases, the application of the person sending the person to another country, the permission of the command for the military, a military ID, a document from a medical institution when leaving for the purpose of treatment are required.
