Young parents are worried about how to correctly register a newborn child and quickly pick up the necessary document. It is easier to register the baby using the MFC or the State Services portal. Then there is no need to stand in lines, wasting a lot of time. You will have to provide "live" documents. Better to collect them immediately, guided by the existing instructions. This will allow you to complete the checkout faster by submitting everything you need in one go. To do this, mothers and fathers must know all the nuances regarding the registration of a baby.
Baby
Why do you need a registration
The sooner the necessary documents are made for the baby, the sooner he will become a full-fledged member of society.
Registration of a newborn at the place of residence makes it possible to do the following:
- Count on maternity capital. To be able to use it, you need to collect a list of papers, one of them is a document that the child is registered;
- Receive social assistance, benefits. For example, the state supports families with three or more children. Registration of all babies must be checked. Mom will also receive products in the dairy kitchen;
- To send the child to the kindergarten, the queue for which is open only for crumbs with registration. Usually they try to apply as early as possible in order to have a chance to qualify for a group in preschool. In the future, the child's admission to school depends on registration;
- Issue a foreign passport for a crumb.
Previously, there was a problem with obtaining a policy without registration. When the baby's residence at a certain address was not documented, then he could not count on free medical assistance. There is no such rule now. You can issue a compulsory medical insurance policy at the place where a person lives at the moment, whether he has a residence permit or not, is irrelevant.
Note. Providing a visiting nurse who can help with advice and guidance to a mother on how to handle a newborn is likely to be refused.
Rules for the implementation of the procedure
The easiest way to register a child at the chosen place of residence is before he turns one month old. During this time period, it is not necessary to submit documents regarding the residence of the father. It is not always possible to collect all the papers so quickly, it depends not only on the wishes of the parents.
What documents are collected
Even in the maternity hospital, the mother receives a certificate that the child was born. It is needed to be taken to the registry office, is the main document that allows you to write out a birth certificate. It is usually received within a month. So much time is given to prepare the document. Already having it in their arms, parents can start thinking about how quickly and where exactly to formalize the baby.
In addition to the main document of the baby, you will have to prepare:
- Mom and Dad passports, also their copies. It's better to play it safe and reshoot the main pages for yourself. While the paperwork is being carried out, the parents will not have passports in their hands. They will be returned to them along with the finished children's registration;
- A statement written by parents that they wish to register their son or daughter at the designated address. An apartment or house is indicated where both of them or one of them are registered;
- A document whose task is to confirm that the woman agrees that the baby will officially reside at the same address as his dad. This is required when the mother is registered in one apartment, and the father is in another, or their relationship is not legalized. If you need to register the child with the mother, the consent of the father is usually not required;
- Marriage certificate;
- Extract from the house book. If we are talking about a private house, then you need to provide it in its entirety. When the registration begins after a month has passed, and the mother and father are registered in different places, you need to make copies of both books. This is required to be sure that the registration of a new citizen is not duplicated.
Book
Note! If the parent, at whose address it is planned to register the baby, has a temporary registration, then you need to confirm that he regularly and in full pays for utility services. To do this, you will have to take a certificate stating that all accounts have been paid off, and he is not listed as a debtor. Also, such a document is required when it comes to municipal housing.
It is legally allowed to register a child in a chosen place (house or apartment) for his parents. Legal representatives and guardians also have this opportunity. Other relatives, especially friends, will not be able to do this.
Where the child is prescribed at birth is decided by his parents. The main thing is that at least one of them is officially registered in this place. When a man and a woman cannot choose where their child should live, the court decides. The proceedings consider the conditions in which each parent is.
Mom and Dad are legally married
If the parents of the crumbs have a marriage certificate in their hands, they are officially husband and wife, then they can register it at any address, if they have a registration issued to different addresses. At the same time, during the issuance of the baby's birth certificate, his main document, the dad can be anywhere, he does not have to come. His paternity will still be confirmed. If the marriage had not been confirmed, and the man had missed the issue of the document, then he would not have been mentioned - the father would have put a dash in the column. It turns out that the child will not be able to live with him legally.
Note! If the parents are registered in one place, apartment or house, then the mother or father can deal with paperwork, including picking up the finished document. There is no need to be present together when registering a newborn.

Mother's registration
If it is necessary to register the baby with the mother, then only her presence is provided. When the receipt of the document occurs after the child is one month old, you must remember to take a copy from the house book where the father of the newborn lives. The paper lists everyone who officially lives in the apartment, the child should not be there.
Father's registration
A short step-by-step instruction on how to submit documents if you plan to register the baby with your dad:
- Both parents must attend registration;
- Bring the entire package of documents, namely passports, birth certificate received in advance, an application with the address where you plan to live with the child, extracts from the house book, confirmation of marriage, if any;
- The mother will have to give consent, formalized as a statement in which she confirms that she has nothing against that her son or daughter is registered in the father's apartment. If a woman cannot come in person, then the man is obliged to bring her consent, but only notarized.
Necessity of the owner's consent
The law does not provide for restrictions if parents register the child in the same place where they are registered and live. That is, it doesn't matter if they are homeowners. The state is not interested in who owns the house or apartment. The main thing is that they are the place of registration of mom or dad or both of them. The owner cannot prohibit the registration of a newborn on the same living space. This means that no documents are required to be obtained from him. However, he can be brought to administrative responsibility, because for the fact that someone lives in an apartment owned by a person without registration, a fine is due.
Note! The option to register an infant in a non-property housing can only be used once. When you have to register your child again, you can't do without the owner's permission.
Problems can arise if the apartment is taken on a mortgage. It happens that there is a clause in the contract that it is impossible to register anyone in it, except for the person who makes monthly payments. This rule also applies to the children of the borrower. Then the issue can be resolved in court and, as an exception, fix that the baby does not live where his mom and dad are officially registered.
If the parents rent an apartment, but they themselves officially live in a different place, then the baby can get a temporary registration. However, it will only be valid for 90 days.
The apartment is not owned
When the baby's mom and dad are not the owners of the apartment, this does not serve as an obstacle to the child's registration in it. The main thing is that they are registered there. By law, the baby must be near them, the state cannot prevent this.
Family
A temporary registration is made for the child. It is valid for the entire period that his parents have the right to legally reside in this territory. After that you need to submit documents again.
Do I need to pay and how long to wait
Registration of a child after birth is free of charge. Parents don't have to think about any fees. The only thing is that you have to pay the notary if you need to certify the mother's permission to move the baby to his father. To start the registration process, you need to submit documents. This can be done through the website of the State Services, the MFC or the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Mom does preliminary work on the internet
If you do not take into account the preliminary collection of the requested papers, then the registration is carried out within 3-8 days. After that, the parents receive the long-awaited document. Its shape does not change until the child is fourteen years old.
Than the lack of registration threatens
By law, a citizen of the Russian Federation should not forget about the need to inform the state where he lives. If a person moves, then it is required that he notify the relevant authorities after he has detached himself from the previous place of residence. For this he is given no more than a week, otherwise they may be fined.
The newborn does not have an apartment, a house in which he previously lived. There is no official document establishing the maximum period for an infant during which he can stay without a registration. It is better to make it faster in order to enjoy all the benefits provided by the state.
The Code of Administrative Offenses provides for liability imposed on persons who allow persons to be permanently on the territory of their property without appropriate documentation. You can find out about this only if they themselves want to write a statement, admitting a violation of their rights. If the complaint comes from strangers, then it is not easy to prove the illegal location. If guilt is admitted, then a fine of 2 to 3 thousand rubles is imposed for 2020. In Moscow and St. Petersburg, the amount is slightly higher (the offender is obliged to pay from 3 to 5 thousand rubles).
Note! If a man and a woman have not recorded anywhere that the child lives with them, but at the same time they themselves are legalized, then they will pay the fine only when they themselves admit that they do not fulfill the duties assigned to them. If they want to evade responsibility, they must present documents that confirm that the baby who is with them on the same living space is their son or daughter.
If the father disagrees
Parents decide where to register a newborn. Mom can register it in her apartment, where she officially lives alone or with her husband. At the same time, you do not need to come with a man, a woman has the right to deal with papers alone. Also, no documents are required from the father to confirm his consent. All that is needed is an extract from the house book, which lists everyone who lives with him, if the mother has a different address.
A man must confirm that he wants to register a son or daughter, if it concerns an apartment in his property, when it is recorded that he lives in it alone, without the baby's mother. If the father is against it, then it will not work to issue a residence permit. However, if a woman confirms that she officially has the right to be in an apartment or house, she is listed in the house book, then the man cannot interfere with her.
If the dad objects to the baby being registered with the mother, the dispute is resolved in court. The state provides parents with equal rights in relation to their children.
Trial
Is registration with a grandmother allowed
You can register a newborn only where mom and dad or people who represent the baby on the basis of the law are registered. If this is the apartment of the parents, that is, the grandparents are crumbs, then the baby can be officially entered there. If they have a residence permit at a different address, then there is no chance that the baby will be allowed to register with relatives. This is possible when they are recognized as the child's guardians.
Note! You can register a child with grandparents after he turns 14. Then the consent of all parties is required.
Registration of a newborn child is usually issued almost immediately after the baby is born. Both his mother and father can deal with documents. It happens that circumstances require the consent of one or the other parent to register the baby. It depends on where it is planned to issue the baby, in what relationship a man and a woman are, where they themselves live legally. The first step towards registering a child in an apartment or a private house is to obtain a birth certificate.
