Where should I mark my arrival on vacation or on a business trip?Expand CollapseCurrently, the procedure for approving the fact of stay in Kazan by the bodies of the Executive Committee of Kazan is not carried out. The decision on the approval of the fact of stay in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation remains with the specific municipality (municipal body). It should also be noted that the territorial bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation have the right to refuse the procedure for approving the fact of stay in a particular city to a citizen of the Russian Federation if he is not an employee of the department, unlike foreign citizens whose registration is handled by the migration Department under the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation. A similar practice exists in almost all municipal budgetary institutions, ministries, and departments. Thus, the fact of staying in the territory of a municipality, as a rule, can be confirmed by the specified departments only for employees. According to paragraphs 7, 8 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 06/12/2008 No. 455 "On the procedure for compensation of expenses for the cost of travel and baggage transportation to and from the place of use of vacation for persons working in federal government agencies, state extra-budgetary Funds of the Russian Federation, federal state institutions located in the Far North and areas equated to them, and their family members" in the absence of travel documents, compensation for expenses is made upon documentary confirmation of the stay of an employee of the institution and his family members at the place of use of the vacation (if there are documents confirming stay in a hotel, sanatorium, holiday home, boarding house, camping, tourist base, as well as in another similar institution, or documents certifying registration at the place of stay). Compensation of expenses for the passage of an employee and his family members to the place of use of vacation and back by personal transport is made upon documentary confirmation of the stay of the employee and his family members at the place of use of vacation in the amount of the actual expenses incurred to pay for the cost of spent fuel, confirmed by gas station receipts, but not higher than the fare calculated on the basis of fuel consumption standards, installed for the corresponding vehicle, and based on the shortest route. One of the key facts confirming your stay in the city remains documentary evidence from a certified accommodation facility, medical institution, sanatorium, etc. Registration of a citizen at the place of stay in a hotel, sanatorium, holiday home, boarding house, camping, medical organization, tourist base or other similar institution is carried out upon arrival of such a citizen by the administration of the relevant institution on the basis of identity documents. In addition, the fact of a nonresident citizen's stay in the city can be confirmed by obtaining temporary registration with the assistance of the owner of the residential premises in which the nonresident citizen lived. In addition, in accordance with the Fundamentals of legislation on notaries in the Russian Federation, a notary has the right to certify the fact that a citizen is in a certain place. In connection with the above, in order to avoid such incidents in the future, when planning your next trip to Kazan as a tourist, we recommend staying in certified accommodation facilities or in institutions designed for recreation and treatment and having appropriate documentation authorizing such activities.
