The process of registration of the baby begins immediately from the maternity hospital, where you must without fail give an exchange card and a certificate-statement. Next, you need to decide whether to register citizenship with a newborn, because before reaching the age of fourteen, this procedure is not important.
The law provides for mandatory registration of children. Registration of citizenship to a newborn is required only in two cases - when traveling abroad or when receiving a certificate for financial assistance to the family.
Consistency and rules of registration of citizenship of the Russian Federation
The process of registration of citizenship to a newborn child depends on the year of birth of the baby and on whether his parents are registered in the territory of the state. Children born after July 7, 2002, can become citizens of the country under a simplified version. The list of documents for Russian citizenship to the newborn was reduced to a minimum. Only passports of the mother and father are required, as well as the metric testimony of the child himself. The stamp on obtaining a legal status in the state is placed immediately after applying to the Federal Migration Service. Specialists are obliged to give you an application form in which you must indicate all the data about your baby.
You will receive the birth certificate in the registry office, providing the following documents:
- certificate of marriage;
- Parents' passports (in case the family is incomplete - only mothers);
- certificate confirming the birth of a medical institution (it is valid only for a month).
Legislative guarantees of Russian citizenship to certain segments of the population
If it is a question of custody or guardianship, then in this case, citizenship is also possible. The same set of documents is being collected, but on condition that the guardian or guardian is a citizen of Russia. Also, the government took care of the children who were born in the country, and the location of their parents is unknown. These kids are put in for control. In six months, they will automatically become lawful residents of the Russian Federation.
Registration of a newborn citizen of Ukraine
To register this fact (and it may be necessary for the newborn to be entered into the parents' foreign passport), it is necessary to apply to the department of the HMS at the place of residence with the birth certificate of the child and the passport of the parent who is a Ukrainian citizen.
If parents are stateless or citizens of other states, they need to additionally provide a document confirming that they reside on the territory of Ukraine on legal grounds.
