Procedure

The most popular and convenient service for many years has been the government services website.
With its help, you can find out information about fines, submit all kinds of documents, order reports and much more. But for several years in a row, the most popular service has been filing an application for marriage registration. This is not surprising, because now newlyweds do not have to fight their way through the huge queues that used to exist at registry offices, especially in the summer.

Submitting an application to the registry office via the Internet has many undeniable advantages. Judge for yourself:

saving time;
absence of queues, scandals and hassles;
the ability to choose your own date for marriage;
You can submit your application even six months before the required date;
advantage in setting a date over those who submit a regular application;
the ability to send an application from any place and city.

We think you are interested in this opportunity, so we’ll tell you a little more.

At the first stage, you must register on the government services website. This is not difficult to do; the whole procedure takes no more than 10 minutes. If you have already registered, then log in.
Go to the “Electronic Services” item and click the “State registration of marriage” button.

In the menu that appears, select the registry office or the Wedding Palace where you plan to hold the ceremony.

Choose a date that suits you. On the same page, fill out the fields with the passport details of the bride and groom. Just do it very carefully so that there are no future problems at the registry office.

Save your data. You will receive a notification that your application has been accepted for consideration.

Wait for confirmation of your application. You will receive a confirmation with the date and time of which registry office you need to go to.

Another point to consider is that both spouses must be registered on the government services portal. One of you will act as an initiator and, after filling out your part of the application, will have to send it to the other for completion.

Some readers who have not reached the age of marriage are interested in whether citizens who are not yet 18 years old will be able to submit such applications. No, they won’t be able to, they will have to go to the registry office in person. They must also collect a package of documents that will allow them to enter into a marriage relationship.

Be sure to track the state in your personal account. After some time, information will appear there about the acceptance of your application and the appointment of a time at which you must come to the registry office. Don't forget to take your documents with you. You will also need to pay a state fee. You can also pay the fee on the portal or using online banking.

A nice bonus is the opportunity to book 2 dates for yourself, for example, July 6 and July 15. The registry office will need to finally choose a more suitable date.

If for some reason you change your mind and decide to cancel the wedding, then this will not be possible through the public services portal. You will need to come to the registry office in person and write an application.

If everything was done correctly, the registry office staff will check your documents and confirm the date for registering the marriage.

Government duty

The state fee for registering a marriage is 350 rubles. If you pay through the State Services portal, a 30% discount is provided, that is, the payment in this case will be 245 rubles. The indicated amounts are specified in clause 1, clause 1 of Art. 333.26 Tax Code of the Russian Federation. The payment can be made by any of the future newlyweds.

Registration online will cost 30% less

You can pay the state fee via the Internet, at a terminal or any branch of the bank. You will need to take your passport with you. You should contact your bank or registry office for details.

You can request a payment link using your personal account. The link appears in the notifications feed. After clicking on the link, the system redirects to the payment system website, where you should carefully follow the system’s instructions. Before making a payment, it is recommended to double-check the specified details and check the “Order a bank receipt” field, having previously indicated your e-mail.

You can pay the state fee via phone or bank card

Payment can be made using a mobile phone or bank account. When choosing to make a payment from your phone, you should wait for an SMS that will ask you to confirm the transfer of funds in favor of the state fee. If the message is ignored within half an hour, the payment will be cancelled. After successful payment, the application is considered approved.

It is impossible to send an application for marriage registration without paying the state fee. She guarantees that the wedding will take place at the chosen time, date, and place. After payment has been made, you should go to the application page and send it to the registry office.

Description of the application process

The algorithm for submitting an application to the Civil Registry Office through government services consists of several steps.

Step 1. We begin interaction with the portal

You need to register on the website gosuslugi.ru. To do this, you will need a passport and SNILS, as well as contact information (email address and telephone number). To be able to use the full range of services, you must confirm your identity: by mail, in person, using an electronic signature. If you are already registered, then proceed to the next step.
Log in to your personal account. Enter your location to see services available in your area.
In the service catalog, select “Family and Children”, then “State registration of marriage”.
Specify the type and select the “Get service” option.

Step 3. Confirm the application

For residents of Moscow and St. Petersburg, this step is not relevant, because They just need to fill out the form online, and then just show up for the wedding ceremony. Residents of other cities need to confirm their request in person at the registry office.

After verification, you will receive an email confirmation that your application has been accepted and an invitation to come to the selected registry office to sign it. You can sign up for a time convenient for you.
Pay for the provision of wedding services. This can be done through an ATM, online or with the help of Sberbank.
Come to the registry office, taking with you the original documents of the bride and groom, a receipt for payment of the state fee.

This completes the instructions for submitting an application to the Civil Registry Office through public services. If at any stage your application fails to pass verification, its status will change; you can check this in your personal account on the portal. If your application was not accepted, write to the site's email to find out the reason and fix it. It should be noted that a refusal can only come if the documents you provide do not meet the requirements established by the law of the Russian Federation.

The most important things about applying to start a family without leaving home

Registration of an official marriage via the Internet is carried out after completing the registration procedure on the above Internet resource.

There are two types of personal account: standard and extended. In order to do the first one, you need to report:

personal data - last name, first name, patronymic, date of birth, etc.;
document information - passport number, number of the certificate of compulsory pension insurance (green card), etc.

And also wait a few working days, after which government officials will check the information for accuracy.

A standard personal account provides access to only some government services, and among them is not filing an application to start a family. An extended personal account is available to those who have passed the personal identification procedure in one of the following ways:

Personally. In this case, you will need to go to the nearest Service Center (addresses are provided at https://www.gosuslugi.ru/). You need to take with you a passport (or other document proving the identity of a citizen of the Russian Federation) and a certificate of compulsory pension insurance.
Online. Relatively recently, it was allowed to undergo the personal identification procedure through the mobile applications of three Russian banks: Sberbank, Tinkoff Bank and Post Bank.
By mail.

In addition, you can get an extended personal account using an Enhanced Qualified Electronic Signature and a Universal Electronic Card (if the UEC has not expired; it cannot be extended, since such cards are no longer issued on January 1, 2017).

Instructions for submitting an application for marriage

As with all other services, marriage registration requires that the user have a valid profile on the State Services website.

The form is first filled out by the bride or groom, who will be considered the “initiator.” After he fills out his data, his application will be sent to the second user of the State Services with an invitation to also fill out a form for registering a marriage.

The initiator, after authorization in his personal account, needs to go through the following branches:

Login to your account;
Go to the “Service Catalog” section;
Select the heading “Family and Children”;
Go to “Marriage Registration”.

In the calendar with dates, you can only select active dates that have not yet been booked. After selecting a date, the time column is activated, where specific hours are offered. The first available date will not be earlier than one month from the date of filling out the form. The most distant date is in 6 months. For some regions, you can select 2 expected dates at once. The final choice should be made no later than 2 weeks before the nearest date. Civil registry office staff will clarify this information by phone or email provided as contact information.

A separate block indicates whether one of the newlyweds was previously married. If this is not the first marriage, the newlyweds will need documents to confirm their current “single” status. This could be a divorce certificate or a spouse's death certificate.

It will also be necessary to indicate the surnames of the newlyweds after marriage. If the bride, for example, wants to change her last name, the new one is indicated in the corresponding column

Please note that the new surname will be the same as the husband's surname or be changed to a feminine gender. You can specify a double surname

If the spouses have not decided on this point, they can enter their current full names, since name changes are available at any time after marriage.

After specifying the data, you need to provide information about the future spouse. To do this, you will need to fill out exactly the same form, but with the partner’s data.

All data is entered manually. It is necessary to carefully fill out the fields marked mandatory, otherwise the application for marriage registration will be rejected.

After filling out the block with information about the marriage, the initiator needs to send an application. It will be directed to the bride/groom who is listed as the spouse. This person will need to log in to their profile. A note about a new message will appear in the News Feed. The notification will contain a link to the application for marriage registration, which is filled out in the same way

Please note that all information in the applications of the bride and groom must match

The initiator is obligated to pay a state fee in the amount of 350 rubles. Payment must be made after the application has been sent to the second spouse for confirmation. To do this, you need to click on the unverified application in the “News Feed” and enter payment information. You can pay the state fee with a 30% discount directly on the State Services website.

After the second spouse fills out his application, the data is verified and sent to the selected registry office. Within 5 days, either confirmation of the application or refusal must be received.

Advantages of applying through the portal

Each person chooses for himself the most beneficial ways to resolve certain issues. Like marriage registration records, there are many positive aspects in it:

Possibility of submitting an application 6 months in advance.
Prompt review of applications by specialists.
Payment of duties on the website.
Discount.

Are you and your significant other in another city and want to get married? In this regard, the question arose: will they sign you up at a location other than your place of registration? Regardless of what city you are in, you have the right to submit an application through government services.

You need to have documents with you: passport and SNILS. You will not need to look for a registry office (this is relevant in situations where you do not know the city or spend most of your time at work).

Important: it is worth booking your marriage registration date in advance. But, if necessary, it can be moved. Please note that you have the opportunity to postpone the wedding date, but under no circumstances should you change the registry office.

How to see available dates at the registry office

Some establishments, especially those located in Moscow, allow you to book an event date electronically. Convenient because you don’t have to waste time waiting for an appointment.

Open the resource of the municipal authorities and look at the unoccupied days of marriage registration. Choose a convenient date and the system generates a coupon. Print out the coupon and present it on the day the union is created.

When registering at the registry office, do not give the coupon to strangers, since it contains passport data. In case of failure to show up on the designated day and time, the reservation will be canceled and then the date must be re-scheduled.

A list of available dates is available on the websites of local authorities. First, point to the name of the organization you are interested in, and then click on the calendar icon to view the available days for registering the relationship.

Further actions before marriage

If everything is done correctly, you will see your request in your personal account in the notifications section. At first it will have the status “Accepted for consideration”. Then it will change to “Registered”. Within a few days, you should receive an email inviting you to appear at the registry office on the specified date and time.

If this does not happen, contact the selected registry office, clarify the reason and your actions to speed up the processing of the application. They can also answer your questions by calling the hotline 8-800-100-70-10.

If you have received an invitation, then on the specified day and time you will need to appear at the selected registry office with the following documents:

Passports of the newlyweds.
Certificate of divorce or death of the previous spouse, if one or both partners were divorced or are widowers.

To affix a marriage stamp, the passport must have one blank page. If there are no free pages, then it is recommended to replace the passport. There are no mandatory requirements for replacing a passport if there are no free pages, but clarifying the nuances in the registry office can ruin the solemnity of the moment and extend the registration time.

Just in case, take with you:

a printout of the invitation letter indicating the date and time of the ceremony;
a printout of the page confirming payment of the state fee or a payment receipt.

These documents are not mandatory, but will be useful if the registry office employees have questions about payment or registration time.

There must be a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 12 months between the day of application and the day of registration. Reducing or increasing this period is possible only if there are compelling reasons and, of course, after agreement with the head of the registry office in which you want to get married.

It is possible to change the standard terms, for example, if the bride is pregnant or the life of one of the newlyweds is at risk. Some dates may not be available due to the large number of people wishing to get married on that day. Please note that most of these dates are in the summer months.

On the scheduled day, please try to arrive at the ceremony location at least 30 minutes in advance to prepare and avoid waiting in line. The wedding procedure itself usually takes about 60 minutes.

Is it possible to change the date in an electronic application?

Newlyweds have the right to change the date of marriage if there are compelling reasons. Such a change is possible only on the basis of a written application drawn up by both spouses in the registry office of their choice for the ceremony.

If one of the future newlyweds is not able to be personally present when drawing up the application, the date can be postponed even if only one groom or only one bride applies. However, in this case, the applicant must have a notarized power of attorney to perform such actions.

Changes are possible for one of the following reasons:

The bride found out that she was pregnant.
The groom received a summons to perform military service.
One of the future newlyweds is forced to leave for work or study.
One of the future spouses has a serious illness, due to which his condition is rapidly deteriorating.

It is worth remembering that if citizens decide to postpone the date of their marriage, they must be prepared that they may not have any ceremony. An exception is possible only when the future spouses managed to reschedule the date to a free day in the schedule.

Future newlyweds have the right to reschedule their wedding to a later date specified in the application. But such a transfer should not exceed one month.

The legislation of the Russian Federation does not define a specific list of compelling reasons why future newlyweds can postpone the date of the ceremony, so registry office employees have the right to make this decision independently, based on personal convictions.

Cancellation of a marriage at one's own request is impossible; one of the applicants must first submit a corresponding application to the registry office. There is no refund of state duty.

Making changes to a completed application for registering a relationship on the portal is possible only within the first 24 hours from the moment it is sent, since during this time the application is being processed and has not yet been accepted by the Civil Registry Office staff.

An application to change the date of marriage registration is drawn up in any form. Civil registry office employees immediately decide on the possibility of a postponement and specify a new date for the wedding procedure.

It should be taken into account that the previous date may be immediately occupied by another couple, so, most likely, it will not be possible to return it.

Submitting an application to the registry office for marriage registration through State Services: step-by-step instructions

The first thing the bride and groom need to do is register on the government services website. Everyone should have their own personal account. Registration of marriage through State Services is simple and does not take much time.

USEFUL INFORMATION: When you can enter into an inheritance under a will - time regulations, procedure

When we get to the site, we see the list of those offered first on the list.

Find the line “Marriage registration”, click and go directly to the instructions. First, let’s decide whether we personally want to take the documents and sign up for registration or in its modern form on the World Wide Web. Our option is the second one, click on the line “Get a service”.

Here is preliminary information and an application form. You need to fill out three sections - enter your passport details and some information about yourself. Then we ourselves appoint the department of the registry office where we want the wedding.

The first step is responsible. We enter the data, carefully checking it, because it will be included in the marriage certificate. A special feature of the service is a double statement. In fact, it is one, but future spouses fill out it together, each from their own account. Let’s say the bride is the first to take the survey. This section contains information from your passport, SNILS, citizenship, and email. The entry must be in all fields except those marked “optional.”

The most exciting stage is to designate the place where the marriage will be concluded. So, three options are offered - choose the registry office in your area, whichever one you want, or at your place of registration. Just put a tick in the desired box. Here you can choose the type of registration: in a non-ceremonial setting or with the first dance, Mendelssohn march and ceremony.

Next, a map of the Russian Federation is presented. You have the right to designate any locality for your wedding. Select the location directly on the map. After which you will see a list of possible registry office departments in the area you indicated. Here you have the right to stand in line at the one you like.

The next step is to set a date. Check the box and a calendar with free dates will automatically appear.

But keep in mind that the period allowed for the wedding will be limited - no earlier than 30 days. The range of possible options is up to six months. Click on the number, and the time selection column will immediately appear. You are allowed to pre-book two dates for a future holiday. You are given time to think, decide and clarify the date approximately 14 days before the celebration. State agency employees must keep in touch themselves, because they will now have contact information. The application contains telephone numbers and email.

In the bride's statement, it remains to indicate additional information. Age, education, whether there are children and how many. Is this the first marriage, has the surname changed, and what will it be after the marriage?

It is important to clarify and check all this before the official procedure in order to avoid incidents

Let's move on to the next stage - brief information about the other half. SNILS, year, day, month of birth, indicate email. mail. Here the system cannot enter information automatically; we enter it ourselves, checking it down to the letters.

Before the wedding, you must pay the state fee for the ceremony. The person who first filled out the application must pay it. There is a column on the page about paying the fee. You need to click on the yet unverified application in the news feed, after payment we add information about the transfer of the fee. After this, the application is sent. The verification process takes place within 5 days and the user receives either a positive response or a refusal if errors were made.

So, the double application is completed, before it is registered with the required department, a notification will automatically be sent about the need to pay the cost of the state procedure. The notice indicates the amount. Previously, you had to pay only at the bank; now it is recommended to do this without leaving your home (to receive a discount). Click on the “pay” column. Decide for yourself in what way. You can transfer money from bank cards, mobile phones, or use an electronic wallet.

Submitting an application electronically: pros and cons

Like any public service provided through the portal, filing an application for marriage registration electronically has its positive and negative sides.

Among the advantages are:

Significant time savings. Citizens do not need to take a place in line, take time off to visit the registry office, and the amount of time spent processing applicant data is significantly reduced.
Availability of this service. All users with Internet access can submit an application, regardless of where exactly they are located.
When entering information into the application for official registration of relations, citizens can book two dates at once. In such a case, choosing the exact date for the wedding is possible later, by personally submitting the documents to a registry office employee.
Those getting married have the opportunity to independently choose how exactly their ceremony will take place: solemnly or not.

Negative points:

When entering information into an application, people may make mistakes, which is why government officials may refuse to accept the application for consideration.
All appointments are made in advance, so if the couple missed the deadline or one of them could not appear in person, the application will be cancelled. Subsequently, it is almost impossible to achieve the ceremony on the chosen date.

Answers to common questions

Many couples planning to apply online often have additional questions. We invite you to familiarize yourself with this information.

Is it possible to apply online if married to a foreigner?

The State Services website provides a convenient online service for accepting marriage applications, available only to citizens of the Russian Federation. When marrying a foreign citizen, the couple must personally submit an application and documents for verification to the registry office. You may also be interested in which registry office to apply for marriage.

What to do if those getting married are minors

Minors under 18 years of age also cannot use the electronic service. A young couple needs to submit an application and personal documents to the registry office. Parents of minors must confirm their consent to the marriage. If the bride is pregnant, a certificate confirming this fact must be submitted to the registry office. You can read more about the age of marriage and prohibited marriages in the Russian Federation here.

Is it possible to pay the state fee for registering a marriage through State Services?

When submitting an application for marriage registration, a state fee of 350 rubles is paid. You can make payment online using a bank card, e-wallet or mobile phone.

How to cancel marriage registration at State Services

You cannot cancel an application for marriage registration on the State Services website. The service will be automatically canceled if the couple does not visit the registry office where the marriage application was submitted and does not provide personal documents for data verification.

If the couple has already visited the registry office and confirmed their desire to enter into a legal marriage, but later made the opposite decision, they must write a refusal to marry. This document is provided to the authorized civil registry officer. It can also be sent by mail to the address of the registry office, but for this the document must be notarized.

There are cases when a couple who has already written a refusal to marry again decides to start a family and enter into a legal marriage. In this situation, the newlyweds will have to write an application again, pay the state fee and choose a new date for the wedding celebration.

Before you apply for a marriage license, think carefully about your decision again!

How to pay the state fee?

When the other party confirms participation, all that remains is to pay the state fee for registering the marriage. The cost will be 350 rubles. The service period is 30 working days.

A letter will be sent to the groom’s email with the continuation of payment of the state fee. Open it and go to the application.
At the end of the page you will find the treasured button to pay the fee.
With the discount, it will be only 245 rubles to pay.
Select a payment method (bank card is the default) and click “Enter card details.”
To complete the transaction, enter the required data. When the payment is confirmed, a notification will be sent by email.

The entire process of getting married and obtaining a certificate takes no more than 1 hour. To do this, take your passports and register your marriage at the registry office on the selected date and time.

Possible reasons for refusal

Sometimes users encounter negative decisions when trying to register the dissolution of a union. The main reason is errors when filling out the form. Typos in names, certificate numbers or other items may require re-registration.

Problems may arise due to the discrepancy between the stated reasons and reality. For example, a couple chooses the “by mutual consent” option, although they continue the process of dividing property. Or the citizen independently enters the data of the absent partner.

Some users provide an incomplete package of documents. Difficulties arise when additional papers are required, such as passport details of guardians. Citizens always enter their own data - fields for them are often required to be filled out.

Joint debts, including a mortgage, are not a reason for refusal. Their fate must be decided by the court as part of the division of property before applying to the registry office. The issue is also being considered by the credit institution.

Possible problems and ways to solve them

The electronic application filing system began operating relatively recently, and therefore a number of nuances may arise when using it. Most often, users encounter the following difficulties:

How to change your Russian passport through the MFC and why it is important...

Foreign bride or groom

In this case, submitting an application through the portal is not possible. To register on the territory of the Russian Federation, you need to contact the marriage authorities in person. Expecting a child is a valid reason for postponing registration to an earlier date.

To speed up the process of reviewing documents and reduce the deadlines established by law, you must additionally attach a certificate of pregnancy.

The registry office is unavailable

Some registry offices in small towns are not yet connected to the system, and some may be overcrowded. Most often, this problem is observed when submitting applications in the following localities:

Chelny.
Dubna.
Irkutsk.
Yoshkar-ole.
Petrozavodsk.
Tomsk.
Vidnom.
Cheboksary.
Cherepovets.
Elektrostal.
Yakutsk.
Kaluga.
Kirov.
Kline.
Krasnoyarsk.
Kurgan.

If such difficulties arise, it is better to contact the competent authorities in person to receive papers.

The government services portal facilitates the process of submitting an application for marriage registration. However, the system still needs improvement, and therefore before making a decision on electronic paperwork, you should carefully study all the nuances.

Is it possible for one spouse to apply for divorce through State Services?

The mechanism for dissolving a marriage union has been approved at the legislative level. If a family does not have joint children or property claims against each other, they will be divorced without any legal proceedings. It is enough for both to submit applications to the registry office or go through the procedure for processing documents on the State Services resource.

USEFUL INFORMATION: How to terminate an alimony agreement?

Childless spouses resolve all controversial issues in court, even when a marriage contract has been drawn up. It is not a legal basis. We need the results of the consideration of the case on the division of property. The decision must be valid on the date of filing the application.

Without a husband

A wife has the right to divorce without her husband’s consent if:

he will have to serve a long sentence (more than three years);
when the trial on controversial issues took place, the results were summed up;
if the spouse is officially given the status of incapacitated.

When filing for divorce through the State Services without her husband, the wife must enter the registration number of the court decision. It is impossible to falsify information.

If there are children

The legislator is often on the side of the mother. Without a trial, a family cannot file for divorce through the State Services if there are minor children. The issue of alimony must be resolved.

They will not divorce without a wife if she is bearing an heir or the couple has a common child in the first year of life. The State Services electronic resource accepts applications for divorce from such families only after legal proceedings, when all issues with the children have been resolved.

Only applications for divorce documents can be submitted online. The following are not accepted on the State Services portal:

complaints to courts;
lawsuits regarding the claims of one of the spouses.

The State Services resource provides the opportunity to obtain divorce documents from the Registration Department without filling out forms. The bureaucratic paperwork procedure is simplified.

If you need to make an appointment at the registry office for another reason

Now you can sign up for a civil registry office at the State Services for another reason:

birth of a child, to obtain a certificate;
divorce;
obtain various types of information.

This also does not require much time, just enter the State Service in the search engine and select the service, the main thing after that is not to forget to pay the fee, if the situation requires it, and come at the appointed time

confirm your identity at the MFC, service center or by creating an electronic signature. To enter all the data, an original passport is not required, but to confirm the legality of using all functions of the site, this document is required.
