Filling out an application for an old-style international passport

You can travel abroad using either a new or an old passport. If you intend to receive the second version of the document, you will need to fill out a standard application form for an old-style international passport.

The procedure for obtaining two types of passports is not much different.

International passports of new and old sample

However, to avoid any hitches and misunderstandings during registration, before you begin the process of obtaining an old international passport, which will open the way to the vast world outside our state, weigh the pros and cons and decide which document is preferable for you.

Types of Russian foreign passports

Since you have the option of choosing the type of travel document, carefully consider the prospects you will gain by choosing one over the other. Today there are two types of travel documents for trips abroad:

• biometric (new);
• old style.

They will let you go abroad without any problems with both the first and second options. The only difference is that the new one has a chip with the owner’s personal data, which simplifies the procedure for passing passport control at the airport.

Many Russians, using their legal right to choose, specified in Article 8 of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation N 114, write an application to receive a familiar document without modifications.

If migration service employees find fault with your passport without biometrics, you can immediately file a complaint, since in this case the fault-finding is illegal.

Consulates and visa centers treat documents equally; no one has the right to refuse you a visa due to the absence of an electronic chip in your passport.

What information is needed to fill out the form?

To fill out the form, you will need to carefully read each item, as well as arm yourself with some other documents. Of course, the amount of information required may vary depending on how old the applicant is.

However, when filling out an application for a 5-year passport, all citizens need to provide the following information about themselves:

• FULL NAME.;
• floor;
• Date of Birth;
• Place of Birth;
• previous full name with the date and place of the official change (both women and men must fill out this item, and if no information has changed, you need to write “NO”);
• the physical address of the place where the citizen is registered, as well as the date of registration; if a person receives a document in another region, indicate the address of another place of residence (actual and permanent);
• phone number;
• email (if available and at the request of the applicant);
• information about studies and work 10 years before drawing up the application.

Please note that any mistake or typo can lead to very unpleasant consequences - for example, you may not be allowed to go abroad. By the way, it won’t hurt to be vigilant even for those who receive a new passport, equipped with a chip with all the information about the citizen.

Haven’t decided yet which type of document is best to draw up? Then you should take your time and carefully understand how a biometric passport differs from a regular one.

How to get an old-style passport

The first and most important thing to do is fill out an application for an old-style international passport. In 2021, a standard form is proposed, which can be downloaded on the official website of the Main Directorate for Migration Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
You can also find a sample form on the Internet and use it to avoid making mistakes. This is very important, since even the most minor blots and deviations from the norm can become grounds for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to return documents. This will be a waste of time for you. The application for a foreign passport is located on two pages of one sheet. Two types of filling are allowed: manually or electronically.

A document with blots or corrections will not be accepted for consideration.

Sample application for an old-style international passport, page 1.

Manual filling should be done in block letters only. Black or blue ink should be used. The finished document will contain:

• personal data;
• passport details;
• information about children;
• information about work.

Before you start creating your own application, carefully study the sample form. In the process of entering data, you will encounter nuances and questions will arise, which the sample will help answer.

What does personal data include?

The application form for a foreign passport begins with personal data. You must write your last name, first name and patronymic. No shortcuts are allowed. Everything must correspond to the data in your internal passport. To indicate gender, place the “×” symbol in the desired box. In the computer version, it can be replaced by the letter “x”. Write your date of birth in the standard format: day, month, year.

Next you need to write your place of birth - copy the data from your Russian passport. Information about previous surnames is filled in only by those who changed this data. In addition to the last name, you should write where exactly the change took place and the date of this event. If the surname has changed more than once, an additional sheet is provided in which you should write about each previous surname.

The sixth paragraph of the block with personal data is devoted to registration. You must indicate the location and date of registration.

If you do not live where you are registered, you need to fill out the seventh paragraph, writing in it the address where you live. If we are talking about temporary registration, it is necessary to indicate its duration.

Next is a contact phone number where you can be contacted. If you wish, you can also leave your e-mail in the application. This item is optional.

Where to get it and how to fill out the form correctly

An application for a foreign passport valid for 5 years can be obtained at the GUVM office, but nowadays most people prefer to download such forms from the Internet, which can be done completely free of charge.

We bring to your attention a small instruction on filling out applications, forms for applicants of different ages and samples of application forms.

General rules for filling out questionnaires

The application must be filled out exclusively using printed devices. You download it online from the Internet, fill it out using a word processor and print it out, or fill out the resulting form using a typewriter.

Only capital letters are used. Dates are formatted in DD format. MM. YYYY., in the section on work activity - in the format MM.YYYY. Enter the abbreviation “g.” no need. If you need to put a mark in a certain box, choosing, for example, gender, you should put an “X” rather than a “bird” or other mark.

In the section devoted to access to state secrets, you need to write “YES” and indicate the organization if the access was issued to you, otherwise you need to write “NO”.

Last name, first name and patronymic are indicated in the nominative case.

All fields must be completed and all requested information must be provided in full. If the standard application column is not enough, there are two appendices to the application form that you need to use.

No corrections in the questionnaire are allowed. If an error is made, fill out a new copy.

To enter information into the form, it will be useful to have on hand:

• passport citizen of the Russian Federation;
• previous passport, if you received one, even if it was cancelled;
• Marriage certificate;
• work book;
• birth certificates of children, if a passport is issued for them.

Filling out a form for an adult

Despite the fact that a passport of a Russian citizen is issued at the age of 14, adulthood occurs at 18. A separate application form is provided for citizens who have reached this age. The questionnaire is written quite clearly, and difficulties may arise only when filling out employment information. This refers to work or study.

The application includes all places of work or study over the past 10 years. If the questionnaire column is not enough to list all these places, you will have to fill out one of the applications. The second is intended for those who have changed their passport data more than once.

In the section on work, the month and year of employment, the same information about dismissal and the name of the enterprise are indicated in numbers. If there were periods of unemployment for a month or more, their dates are indicated and “TEMPORARILY NOT WORKING” or “TEMPORILY NOT STUDYING AND NOT WORKING” is written. There is another option: “I AM RETIRED.”

If you continue to study, work, do not work or are retired, then instead of the date of dismissal or graduation, put “N/B”, which means “to the present time”.

Otherwise, there should be no problems when filling out the form, especially if you check the information you enter with the sample provided below.

Filling out a form for minors

Teenagers aged 14-18 years have their own version of the questionnaire, which they have the right to personally sign. After the foreign passport is ready, the young Russian has the right to personally appear at the issuing point and receive the document. The questionnaire is very similar to the one for adults, but it includes information about parents or guardians.

The application form for a child under 14 years of age is filled out in the same way. Only an adult must do this, and he also signs the form. The section on the child’s main document contains information not from the passport, but from the birth certificate. This passport must be received by an adult - a parent or guardian.

Data from internal passport

In the application, in the block dedicated to passport data, you need to enter the number and series of your Russian passport. In this paragraph, special attention must be paid to indicating information about access to information that falls under the category of special importance. We are talking about people whose profession requires them to have access to secret information and, as a result, prohibits or restricts the travel of such categories of people abroad.

If you belong to this category of citizens, you will be denied an old-style passport or a sample with biometric data. It will not be possible to hide the data, since the information is verified. In any case, you will receive a refusal.

What to write about work and children

Another section of the form is devoted to work activity. The last 10 years of employment need to be sanctified. Even if you were listed as unemployed, this must be indicated on a special sign. Those who changed jobs many times during the specified period need to write it all down, indicating the dates. Studying also counts. Breaks of more than one month are also necessary.

In the application you need to write not only the names of organizations, but also their addresses. During the unemployed period, you must indicate the address where you lived at the time. If you are a pensioner, you also need to write your home address.

If, while working in one organization, you changed your position one or more times, this fact must be reflected in the application in the corresponding columns of the table. Carefully look at the sample filling to see how it is done correctly.

If you have not written everything yet, and there is no more space on the plate, use the application form No. 2a and write in it everything that does not fit in the main form.

The column about children is filled in if minors do not have their own foreign passport. If the child has documents for traveling abroad, this item can be ignored.

All other columns will be filled out by employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. All you have to do is put the date and signature. The latter should not go beyond the boundaries allocated for it. It is also undesirable for it to come into contact with these boundaries.
