The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia explained the need to cancel the stamp of marriage and children in the passport

The need to put marks in the passport in the registration of marriage and children has disappeared due to the storage of basic information about Russians in electronic form. This is reported by TASS with reference to the information of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia.

“In the context of the digital transformation of public administration, when basic information about citizens is accumulated in the information systems of authorities and is provided to interested departments upon request, there is no longer the need for the mandatory stamping of marks in the passport on marriage registration and children,” the source said.

Earlier it was reported that the Russians were allowed to put marks on the registration of marriage and children under 14 years old in their passports at will. Mandatory marks in the passport remain information about registration at the place of residence and deregistration, as well as marks about the attitude to military duty of citizens who have reached the age of 18.

From July 1, 2022, a new passport will be issued within five working days, regardless of place of residence, stay, actual residence or circumstances of its replacement. The norm will also apply when a passport with an electronic carrier is introduced.

The electronic passport will be a plastic card with an electronic data carrier. It was reported that it will have a photograph, personal data and a chip. Moreover, it will also contain biometric data. Russians can start receiving e-passports in January 2023.
