It is unpleasant when a passenger is denied boarding right at the airport right before departure for rest abroad. The reason may be an unpaid fine. Such problems can be easily avoided by first checking the information about your fines.
Drivers with parking fines in arrears in the amount of more than 10,000 rubles are not allowed abroad from Russia, therefore, when going on vacation abroad, you need to check if you have unpaid fines. You can find out if you have fines on the traffic police website or on the State Services website by entering the state. car number and driver's license.
Debtors with fines in excess of RUB 10,000 may be restricted from traveling abroad. And you can find out about this only at the airport, where you will no longer change the situation.
It is not enough to pay the fine 3-5 days before the trip. It is better to do this at least 2 weeks in advance and take with you to boarding a check on the debt repayment, since the information that you have paid off the debt and the restrictions on leaving you have been canceled will be received by the border guards only a few days later.
Payment for the fine must be made within 60 days from the moment when the decision on the administrative offense was made, otherwise the information about the debt will go to the bailiffs, and they will go to court with a statement on the temporary restriction of leaving the country.
Since 2015, drivers have been given the opportunity to pay a fine at a 50% discount, if this is done no later than 20 days from the date of the decision.
The inspectorate reports that in Moscow alone, in 2017, 52 debtors were restricted from leaving Russia.
