Even if both parents are Russian, before applying for a passport for a child under the age of 14, it is necessary to obtain Russian citizenship. Your child may already have a separate passport from birth, which will allow him to travel with grandmothers or other acquaintances if he has a notarized permission from the parents. You can enter data about a minor child only in the parent’s five-year passport, but it should be noted that not all countries accept passports of the old, non-biometric sample and, having made the child separate passport, you might make your life easier in the future.

1. Application (to be completed by a parent or guardian)
