How to find out your SNIS via the Internet using your passport

So, what is SNILS for?

SNILS today is one of the “links” for the formation of the Unified Register of Citizens who are entitled to benefits or social services. The SNILS number is used to identify citizens on the government services portal.

SNILS becomes the only identifier that contains the personal data of all citizens and participates in information exchange between all departments. The SNILS number will be the number of the citizen’s electronic card, which in the future will allow him to receive various services both in the social, pension, and medical security systems. That is, the card will replace many existing documents, in particular TIN, etc.

Is it possible to restore access to government services through SNILS?

Quite often it happens that citizens who do not use the portal for a long time may simply forget their credentials to log into their personal account. And this is despite the fact that experts recommend recording this kind of information in a separate notebook or notepad.

However, do not worry, since the data available on the portal will not be lost, and access to it can always be restored.

The following can be used for this:

• the email that was used to register on the portal itself;
• mobile phone, which can also be used for registration and used to send a data confirmation code;
• answer to a security question, the content of which is known only to the user;
• insurance number of an individual personal account.

Important! SNILS is a necessary identifier, information about which should not be distributed or transferred to third parties.

The easiest way to restore access to your personal account on the State Services portal is to use your pension insurance number.

How to decrypt SNILS?

SNILS is the Insurance Number of a citizen’s Individual Personal Account in the compulsory pension insurance system.

SNILS is indicated on the insurance certificate - a green card, which every working citizen has.

The SNILS number is unique and can only belong to one citizen.

All information regarding the citizen’s work experience and all pension contributions to him are entered into the SNILS account so that his pension will be coordinated in the future.

How to find out SNILS from your passport via the Internet

There are 2 ways available to the public to determine their insurance number:

• "Government services";
• using the Federal Tax Service website.

How to find SNILS online by last name using the official website of the Pension Fund of Russia

The Pension Fund website does not make it possible to find out your personal account number online.

To obtain such information, you need to go to the office of the institution with your passport and request information. Fund employees will provide the pension certificate number only to its owner.

Is it possible to check SNILS for free using an individual’s passport using the pension fund database?

Only its employees have access to the Pension Fund database. There is no legal way to obtain information via the Internet.

Information is provided free of charge.

How to find out the SNILS number via the Internet by the child’s last name

SNILS can be received not only by an adult citizen, but also by a newborn child. However, it will not be possible to find out the insurance number of a minor’s personal account via the Internet, since he is not yet registered on the State Services website and does not yet have access to his personal account on the Federal Tax Service website.

An option is to contact the Pension Fund. If the child is already 14 years old, he can do this on his own, after first taking a Russian passport. For younger children, their parents can find out SNILS.

SNILS (abbreviation): when and how to get it?

SNILS, as mentioned earlier, is the number of a citizen’s individual personal account. You can find it on the insurance certificate of compulsory pension insurance.

There are several ways to obtain this certificate: On your own. A citizen applies to the Pension Fund at his place of residence, presents his passport and fills out a special form. The waiting period is no more than 2 weeks. The certificate is issued by the employer at the place of first work. Within 2 weeks from the date of employment, the employer must submit the insured person’s questionnaire to the Pension Fund so that the employee is registered in the pension insurance system. If parents want to register minor children in the pension insurance system, they must come with the child’s birth certificate and fill out a form.

SNILS authentication

The insurance certificate, along with the passport, although it does not contain a photo and signature, is an important and significant document for Russian citizens and all officially employed foreigners in the Russian Federation.

A person has the right to check the correctness and authenticity of information using a couple of methods. Some of them allow checking SNILS by number online. Ways to obtain information include:

• personal application to the Pension Fund with a passport;
• contacting the company's HR department;
• checking information through the State Services portal.

It is also permissible to count the last two check digits. However, the method is not applicable to all evidence, so we will not consider it in detail.

If during the check, inconsistencies in the data were identified, then you must contact the Pension Fund and ask to correct the information. Staff will issue a new card with accurate information.

How is SNILS deciphered and for how long is it issued?

The insurance certificate of compulsory pension insurance, which contains the SNILS number, is issued for life and can be replaced only if personal data changes.

If the certificate was lost for some reason, the Pension Fund authorities, when contacting them with a corresponding application, issue a duplicate certificate.

The citizen must keep the insurance certificate with him. There is no need to give the original to the employer: he can make a copy for himself and rewrite the SNILS number.

All information contained in the individual account of a person insured in the compulsory pension insurance system is confidential and is not disclosed to third parties without the permission of the insured. This information may only be used for pension and health care purposes.

Where to check the readiness of SNILS

How do you know if SNILS is ready? The operating features of the foldable pension insurance system require the use of specialized stages for the redistribution of such identifiers. Only the first 10 digits in the documentation number are considered the actual number. The last 2 numbers are used as a specialized control code.

The designation helps in checking the correctness of the designated number without taking into account access to the PFR electronic database.

Due to the control value, it is possible to check the reality of the designated pension identifier without linking information from the passport and full name of a specific person.

ATTENTION! Services for checking a pension insurance certificate by last name are provided by several resources, but special attention is paid to the official website of the Social Insurance Fund.

It is important to remember that the verification process is not able under any circumstances to convey certain information about the person who is considered to be the actual holder of the records. Only an array of information will be issued, which contains information about the correctness of the number.

It is best to use other portals with extreme caution. This will be due to the fact that the information entered during registration can be used by fraudsters.

The Pension Fund is also unable to provide data online due to the fact that, based on the regulations of the current federal law, the data in question is considered secret.

The only way to obtain the required passport data is to visit the Pension Fund office in person.

What data can be obtained about a person if his SNILS number is known?

Very often, not only the SNILS itself is required, but also the date of registration of the insurance certificate of a citizen of the Russian Federation in the general pension insurance system. The registration date is indicated on the card itself, but if, if necessary, it is not nearby, there are two ways to find out the necessary data:

1. Apply with your passport to the Pension Fund of Russia unit at the place of registration and find out how to find out the registration date using the SNILS number.
2. Submit a request for notification of the status of your personal account at the Pension Fund of Russia through the State Services portal, after which you will have access to complete information about the document you are interested in.

It should be borne in mind that without passport data and confirmation of your identity, it is impossible to obtain the information you are interested in using only the SNILS number. And the best solution in this situation would be to contact the Pension Fund employees. They will help solve your problem and tell you how to find out the date of issue of SNILS by number.

It should be noted that the personal information of a citizen of the Russian Federation indicated in the “light green card” and stored in the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation is not subject to disclosure to third parties. Any data can only be requested by the insured person himself or law enforcement agencies upon an official request.

Using your SNILS number alone, even if it is known, scammers will never be able to find out your full name, place of work or registration. In order to be able to find out the full name of an individual using SNILS, you will need either the card itself or access to the citizen’s personal account on the State Services portal. It is equally important that it will be possible to find out personal data on the State Services website only if a particular citizen has gone through the full registration procedure on the portal and confirmed his personal data. Do not forget that the intention to find out whose SNILS number is and to gain access to a person’s personal data without his knowledge is illegal.

It is unlikely that the SNILS number will help in a situation where personal data is urgently required, but knowing the SNILS number will help you connect to the entrance to your personal account on the State Services Internet portal.

Many people are interested in whether it is possible to find out personal information using the SNILS number. This is a completely feasible task, but only if this information has been entered in advance into the personal account of the user of the State Services portal.

In particular, at their own request, any user can add in advance to the State Services portal:

• birth certificate;
• information about your place of actual residence and registration;
• driver's license;
• compulsory medical insurance policy;
• international passport ;
• military ID;
• vehicle data.

You can find out the details of a stranger only if you have his login and password in your hands, as well as if you have access to the electronic mailbox and mobile phone of a citizen of the Russian Federation. However, do not forget about the illegality of your actions in the event of illegally obtaining information without the permission of a third party.

How to find out about the status of a Russian citizen’s personal account in the PFR insurance system

Providing state support measures for citizens in the form of social services and SNILS

As social support for citizens of the Russian Federation, the state allocates funds for the provision of social services. Both all citizens and individual categories have the right to receive them. In particular, the range of services provided to all citizens of the country includes compulsory medical insurance (compulsory health insurance).

However, in order to use the services of a medical institution, you will need to provide your compulsory medical insurance policy number. If you have lost a paper document and do not know where the plastic card is, your passport and SNILS will help you find the necessary information. When choosing how to find out the compulsory medical insurance policy number using SNILS, you can go to the State Services portal or one of the points for issuing compulsory medical insurance policies.

To make information about your document available, enter it in advance into your personal account on the State Services portal and confirm the necessary data. At the compulsory medical insurance policy issuance points, you can apply for a new policy and receive a temporary one.

How to find out about the length of service of a working citizen of the Russian Federation using SNILS

Is it possible to find out if there is a debt using the SNILS number?

Registered users of the State Services portal can obtain information about debts for taxes, traffic police fines, including debts from bailiffs; for this you will need SNILS, a linked mobile phone number and a password to enter the resource.

Find out your NPF by SNILS number

Unfortunately, citizens of the Russian Federation are increasingly faced with an unpleasant situation for themselves - the illegal transfer of their pension savings to non-state pension funds (NPFs), including transfers from one NPF to another. It also happens that a citizen has forgotten (or is not sure) in which NPF his pension savings are currently located.

Knowing your SNILS number, you can find out this information in two ways:

1. Contact your local Pension Fund office and get expert advice.
2. Contact the accounting department at your place of work.
