The concept of "residence registration" appeared in the USSR at the end of the 20s of the last century. The stamp with the address of registration determined in which city a person can live, where to work, which clinic to go to, which kindergarten and which school to send children. If a person did not have a residence permit, it was as if he did not exist, without it he was deprived of almost all the rights guaranteed by the Constitution, including the right to work.
What is the difference between registration and registration
As contrary to the constitutional human right to freedom of movement, registration as such was abolished in 1993. It has been replaced by compulsory registration, which can be temporary or permanent. The first is called "at the place of residence", the second - "at the place of residence", so it continues to be called registration.
According to the law "On the Right of Citizens of the Russian Federation to Freedom of Movement", any person who arrives in Russia or resides on its territory must register, register or, in the old way, register at his permanent residence address or where he is located temporarily.
If a person comes to visit relatives, he must obtain a temporary registration at their address, if he came to rest - at the address where he rented a room. It is believed that permanent or temporary registration does not have any restrictions, and, according to the law, when applying for a job, the employer does not have the right to impose a condition on the presence of mandatory registration.
Recently, the Federal Migration Service initiated the development of a bill abolishing any type of registration, including at the place of registration. In 2014, it is planned to submit this law to the State Duma for consideration.
What the law says and how it really happens
In Art. 65 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation clearly assigns a list of documents that must be presented to the employer by a person applying for a job. Among them: passport or any other identity document; employment history; pension insurance certificate; for those liable for military service - military registration documents; as well as documents on the received education.
The law explicitly prohibits employers from requiring any other documents. Article 64 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation says that when concluding an employment contract, the rights of an employee should not be directly or indirectly limited, either depending on gender, age or race, or depending on the place of residence.
But, as practice shows, some employers are in direct violation of the law and even indicate requirements for registration at the place of residence in job advertisements.
This is especially common in the capital and the Moscow region.
Unwillingness to hire nonresident, unfortunately, it will not be possible to prove if you simply do not respond to the sent resume or are deceived by promising to contact you after the interview.
