Obtaining Russian citizenship by residents of Transnistria What documents are needed to replace a Russian foreign passport? To exchange a foreign passport, you must fill out an Application for Issuance of a Passport and a Requirement. Important There are two ways to fill it out:

  • The first way is to go to the website https://passportzu.kdmid.ru 1-2 days before going to the embassy and fill out sample documents there.

Attention Completed documents must be printed (they are in standard World format), and please note - the Application consists of two pages, which must be printed on both sides of the sheet. Applications must be 2 copies, Requirement - one. Available in both black and white and color.

Attention: But the website does not indicate that it is necessary to make copies of all documents provided! Therefore, do not forget about copies - at the embassy, ​​if something is missing, they send it back. Prices for replacing an international passport Money: to replace a standard international passport of the Russian Federation, you need to pay 390 lei in state fees. It is mandatory to pay in lei; payments in dollars and other currencies are not accepted.

A biometric passport costs about 2 times more. In Tiraspol, payment is accepted only in dollars!

  • for 5 years - 30 dollars
  • for 10 years - 80 dollars

Changing your passport The commandant shouts out your name, and if you are in Chisinau, you find yourself in a small room with shabby walls and ceilings covered with stains, which eloquently testify to the greatness of the empire and great love for their fellow citizens. Everything is better and more pleasant in Tiraspol. The fact that you stood outside the embassy for 4 hours does not mean that you will be received here right away. On average, after getting to the embassy you need to wait about an hour more. Therefore, you need to go to the Russian Embassy in warm clothes (in winter), a supply of mineral water (in summer) and a lot of patience.

Why it is impossible in Chisinau to divide the number of people who signed up into 2 or 3 groups, so that people do not wait - this is a mystery. There are two groups in Tiraspol: for 9 o'clock and 11. When you call for an appointment, they will tell you. Of course, we must pay tribute to the employees of the institution - they work very quickly, process thousands of documents per day, try to help those who apply, and one can envy their calmness and restraint.

So, we go to the window and, with bated breath, submit the documents. This article will discuss replacing a standard international passport. Making an appointment at the Embassy In order to make an appointment for a passport exchange, you need to call the Russian Embassy in Chisinau at the number. This number is constantly busy, so sit down near the phone, turn on auto-dial and intensively attack this number with calls for 1-2 hours.

Important: At the end, a woman will answer you and indicate the date of your appointment. Without an appointment, the embassy will not accept you, and without a call, they will not register you. Therefore, the telephone is the only way to victory. Moreover, it doesn’t matter where you will change your passport in Chisinau or Tiraspol, you still need to register in Chisinau using the above phone numbers. We prepare documents for the exchange of Russian foreign passports in Tiraspol or Chisinau. After registration, we prepare the documents.

Purchase procedure

Russia's support for the PMR raises hopes among residents of the region for relaxations when applying for a Russian passport. However, by law, all foreigners are required to act according to the same rules.

For those who are wondering how to obtain Russian citizenship for a citizen of Transnistria, you can answer the following:

Usually they travel abroad using passports from Russia, Moldova or Ukraine. The presence of a Russian identity document in itself means citizenship of this country, therefore we are talking about the last two documents. Needed at the border.

Simplified procedure

The Russian Federation considers itself the legal successor of the Russian Empire and the USSR, therefore it assumes responsibility for the former citizens of these states and their descendants.

Grounds for acquiring Russian citizenship according to a simplified scheme:

  9. Acceptance in .

Possibility of dual citizenship

The Russian Constitution allows for dual citizenship on the basis of interstate treaties. Currently, such an agreement is valid only with Tajikistan. But since Russia does not recognize the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic, having its passport does not seem to violate anything.

Dual citizenship for Transnistrians is permitted by local citizenship law. Purchasing another passport under this law does not lead to loss of civil status in the territory of the PMR. Thus, if you have passports of two states, Russia will consider you its citizen, and the PMR will consider you its citizen, with all the ensuing rights and responsibilities.
