Every person who lives in a state of law has rights that must be respected by all. One of the rights is registration at the place of temporary residence or permanent residence. It is necessary to register a newborn child, thereby declaring the whereabouts of a new citizen on the territory of the state. This procedure is quite simple, while requiring a minimal quantitative set of documents and very little time.
Documents required for registration
To register a newborn will need all the documents confirming his identity and the identity of the parents. Also, be sure to make copies of all documents, they will certainly come in handy. The list of required documents is not large, you can easily collect everything you need:
- passports of parents;
- baby's birth certificate;
- certificate of marriage by parents (if the marriage is registered);
- a statement from one of the registering parents that he does not oppose the registration of the child in the territory of another;
- a statement from mommy that she permits her to register the baby with her father, if it is decided to register the child at the place of daddy's registration.
The nuances that arise when a child is registered
Thinking about how to register a newborn and where, it is worth considering that it is obligatory to register it in a house or apartment even if the size of the living space is insufficient.
- if the child is prescribed separately from the mother, then in addition to the father’s application, written permission of the mother is needed, with a joint registration with the mother, the father’s application is not required.
- It is possible to register a child under the age of one month only if there is a statement from the mother; it is possible to register a child after one month old if there is a statement from the mother and a certificate of residence from the father.
- when registering with one of the parents, the permission of the remaining family members is not required, even if they are the owner, and not you. when registering, the presence of both parents is required.
- one of the parents has the right to register his newborn child for any share of his own real estate, even if it will be a quarter of the apartment and the living space will not be enough at the established minimum.
There is such a nuance as the registration of a child in a dwelling, the owners of which are neither mother nor father. In this case, the consent of the owners of the provided space for registration is not required, just as the consent (either verbal or written) of all the other ones is not required. When registering a child in a private house, a note about this is recorded in the house book, among other documents.
If the parents of the baby are not officially married, but they wish to register the baby with the father, then dad must be indicated in the main document of the child - in the birth certificate. For this option to work out, the father must either adopt his own child, or carry out the procedure for establishing paternity, or the recognition of paternity.
Child Registration Dates
Having prepared all the documents, you can proceed to the most important thing - a trip to the passport office. There you will have to provide the employee with all the collected certificates and other papers, including parental passports. An employee will pick them up for a while, usually for a short time, no more than 7 days. Then you can go up to your papers, where the place of registration of the child will already be indicated.
Despite the seemingly simple simplicity of the procedure, There are also some nuances, which are better to know about in advance so that you do not have to visit the passport office several times. So, if the baby is prescribed on the territory of the mother, then the consent of the father is not required, but if on the contrary, then the notarized consent is required from the mother. The child will not be able to register on the living space where not one of the parents is registered temporarily or permanently, since the law prohibits the child from living until the age of sixteen separately from the parents.
About the fine
To register a child, it is necessary to provide a birth certificate, which is required to be received at the registry office within a month from the day of birth, otherwise unconscious parents will face a small fine. (in the amount of 1.5 to 2.5 thousand rubles (Clause 6, Article 16 of the Federal Law "On acts of civil status")
A residence permit can be issued in a longer period - up to 3 months, but still not worth delaying with it. Lack of registration is punishable by a significant fine, regardless of the person’s age, and since it is the parents who bear the full responsibility, the payment of the fine will fall on them.
Pursuing registration of a baby, you will not only fulfill the requirements of the law, but also ensure your baby and yourself a quiet life. The actual registration at the place of residence makes it possible to get a medical policy for a child, seamlessly issue all cash and other appropriate benefits and maternity capital if you are not already the first child.

Video consultation: Registration of a child at the place of residence through the GOSUSLOG portal
Our daddy was engaged in paperwork for a child. A residence permit was issued immediately after the birth certificate was issued. So that there are no problems with further documents.
My husband and I are registered on the same living space, the owner of which is my mother. 3 years ago, when we registered the eldest daughter, the presence of the father during the registration process was not required, but only the signature in the statement he put at home was required. Also required the signature of the owner of the apartment. And now, when the youngest son was prescribed, on the contrary, the presence of the father is mandatory, he puts his signature in the presence of a housekeeping worker. And the permission of the owner of the apartment is really not required.
After the birth of the child, dad dealt with all the documents, including the registration of the baby. I have not been registered in the house with my dad yet, but we live together, and they did not require my permission to register in the passport office. They did everything very quickly, in 2 days. From dad demanded only:
- copies of passports of parents;
- A copy of the birth certificate of the baby;
- A copy of the marriage certificate of the parents.
- a house book (we live in a private house).
The list of required documents is not large, you can easily collect everything you need:
…
- a statement from one of the registering parents that he does not oppose the child’s registration in the territory of another;
- a statement from mommy that she permits her to register the baby with her father, if it is decided to register the child at the place of daddy's registration.
Strange penultimate paragraph. After this list it is written that when registering with mom, a statement from the father is not necessary. So what does this point mean then ?!
