FMS official website
One of the most convenient ways to get the application form required for the issuance of a new passport is to download it on the official website of the Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation, which is a government agency authorized to issue such documents to citizens of the Russian Federation.
In order to do this, you need to go to the main page of the agency’s website and select the “Citizens of Russia” tab in the top line. One of the items in the drop-down menu that appears when you hover over this tab is the line "Foreign passport". Left-clicking on this line will bring you to a page of the site that contains comprehensive information on the procedure for issuing foreign passports, including a new passport.
The link necessary for this case is contained in the section "An exhaustive list of documents required for issuing a new generation passport" under the name "Application for a new generation passport in accordance with Appendix No. 1 to the Administrative Regulation". By clicking on this link, you will be redirected to the page with the form of the questionnaire in electronic form, which, if necessary, can be downloaded to your computer. In addition, directly below this link is another one - leading to a page with a questionnaire form for underage applicants.
In addition, a sample of such a questionnaire is available on the websites of all territorial branches of the FMS located in various regions of Russia. Therefore, if you are better guided by the website of your territorial office, you can download the form from there. However, you should not use the forms downloaded from the websites of third-party organizations: the fact is that changes are made to the form of the questionnaire periodically, so you can be sure that you have downloaded the current version only if you refer to the official website of the FMS.
You can fill out the questionnaire in two ways: the first of them - by entering the necessary data on the computer and then printing the completed form. The second way is to fill out the questionnaire by hand: in this case, it is recommended to use a black or blue pen and monitor legibility of the handwriting.
