How to renew Ukrainian passport at the age of 45 years at the place other than the place of registration?

A citizen has the right to apply for a replacement of passport not only at the place of permanent / temporary registration, but also at his or her current location. Staff is not entitled to refuse to accept the application for the replacement of documents. Otherwise you can write a complaint to the head of the unit.

The list of documents for the exchange of passports
To change the passports at the ages of 25 and 45 the following documents will be needed:

1. The old passport which must be replaced due to the attainment of the legal age.

The list of documents to replace a passport also includes documents containing information about the parents and children under 16 years of age (birth certificate, passports of the relatives).

The documents to replace passports also include the documents that confirm the location of your registration. If you are applying at the place of permanent residence, it is sufficient to present the old passport with a mark about a residence permit. If not, then a certificate with information about the registration is needed. And if it happens in the other region, in addition to registering at the main place of residence you will also need to provide proof of registration at the place of temporary residence.

2. 2 photos in the size 35 × 45 mm in color or black and white, clearly depicting the face of a person: the focus must be configured from the hairline to the extreme point of the chin, the ears should also be in focus. The size of the head should occupy at least 80% of the total image size. Photo of the applicant in the headdress is inadmissible, except when due to the religious beliefs a citizen is forbidden to attend the public places without it. The headgear must not cover any part of the face. It is important to note that the citizens constantly wearing glasses must be photographed only with the spectacles on, but the glass should not be tinted.

3. The application form. The application is written in the form of № 1P which is set by the administrative regulations of the Migration Service.

4. Additional documents the details of which shall be recorded in the passport of the citizen of Ukraine .
Note: as of 2016 the state duty payment receipt for the replacement of a passport is provided optionally – it is enough to report the requisites.

Deadline to receive a new passport

It is important to note that all the documents required for the replacement of a passport are established by law. In accordance with this act the list of documents to replace a passport is exhaustive and staff has no right to require the provision of any other additional data.

From the date of delivery of all documents to change the passport the term of 10 days begins to run out for the provision of public services to produce and issue a new passport. The new passport is made within 10 days from the date of submission of the complete set of documents, regardless of whether you have filed documents in person or submitted your request. If a person has applied in another region (e.g. place of someone`s current residence) he or she will have to wait for a period of 2 months. Instead of your main document the person will be provided with a “temporary” one for this period which will certify the identity of the citizen until the receipt of the new passport.
