The need to exchange

There are various situations when it is necessary to reanimate these documents. This raises many questions, including the question of how much it costs to change the rights. Consider the options when you have to contact the state structures for the renewal of the certificate:

• the term of the documents has expired or is coming to an end (it is advisable to take care of this in advance so as not to get into the queue);
• there was a change in the owner of personal data, which includes the first, middle and last name (women usually change their last name after marriage or for other reasons);
• there was a desire to open a new category for driving a vehicle (the rights do not provide for the possibility of entering new information);
• there was a physical damage to the document (the child or pets could damage the rights);
• if there are documents obtained before 1992 in the Soviet Union, they must be replaced (the old document is invalid);
• when a certificate is received for the first time abroad, it is replaced with modern rights, having previously specified how much it costs to replace the rights (especially if they contain inscriptions in a foreign language);
• when a document is lost or stolen by intruders, you must immediately contact the law enforcement agencies, writing the appropriate statement of theft.

The financial part of the issue

The actual cost of replacing a driver's license for 2017 is 2,000 rubles. This amount is paid as a state duty. It is paid to the account specified by employees of a state institution. A plastic document is issued instead.

There are some financial discounts. Upon receipt of a paper document, the cost will be 500 rubles. Also, the driver can get plastic rights for 1400 rubles, if he makes a request through the portal of public services. This discount is valid until the end of 2018.

It is important to know! When replacing a certificate of international standard, the amount of state duty is 1600 rubles for each citizen.

As a result of the procedure, the driver will receive not a duplicate, but a new document, which will contain information about previous rights. This will allow not to lose information about the current driving experience.

Actual replacement procedure

Since the beginning of April 2017, drivers have been expanded to receive documents allowing them to drive. Now, considering what you need to replace the rights, you can apply not only to the traffic police, but also to the MFC. Let us consider both options.

Appeal to the traffic police

If there is enough time, the driver most often refers to the state inspectorate following an old habit Recently, there have been practically no traditional queues in this department. Many similar services are provided on time and more clearly.

In many large cities, automatic devices operating in the electronic queue mode are installed. In a prominent place is an electronic scoreboard indicating the number of the visitor's coupon. Just go into the room and print the receipt. After that, visitors wait their turn. Typically, the waiting time specified in the coupon, coincides with the invitation to service.

In the process of customer service, you must have all the documents. With this package, the driver approaches the window where the service inspector is sitting. The necessary application is filled by the responsible traffic police officer. The driver is left to provide, if necessary, the necessary information verbally, and then go for a photograph.

The list of documents for replacing a driver's license includes the following important papers:

• driver's personal card;
• valid civil passport;
• medical certificate of the established sample;
• old driver's license.

Providing medical assistance may be unnecessary if:

• rights vary due to physical damage;
• loss of rights;
• when changing personal information about the driver.

All documents will be useful when contacting the traffic police office at the place of residence. If there is a temporary registration, it is allowed to submit data at the place of current residence. In this case, a corresponding registration document is attached to the package.

The driver has the right not to file a medical certificate. In case of restoration of rights upon loss, the effect of the new document will be limited to the interval specified in the old rights. If you provide a certificate, then the interval of validity of rights will be full 10 years from the date of their issuance.

It is impossible to get a medical certificate for a bribe. This offense is punishable by 5,000 rubles. Medical staff is punished. Also, he may be subject to criminal liability for the act under Article.327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.

After filling out the application for restoration will need to pay the state duty. This is done in a convenient way for the client. When paying through a commercial bank, a financial institution may charge an additional fee.

Important! If there is a suspicion among law enforcement officers about the authenticity of the documents submitted, consideration of the issue of rights may be delayed by law for 2 months to verify the available information.

Appeal to the MFC

If the driver has a desire to use the new type of service, then he can calmly turn to the multifunctional center. They also tell you what documents are needed to replace the rights. However, there are some features of the work of this organization.

Need to know! MFC employees only accept documents from the driver for renewal of rights, and they process the processing in the traffic police.

The issuance of ready-made driving licenses occurs in the same place where the documents were filed. The procedure is objectively stretched for several days. However, in the traffic police, it can often occur in 20-30 minutes.

A similar method is convenient for residents of remote areas, for example, in a village where there is a multifunctional center, but there is no road inspection department. If there is a waiver of law enforcement agencies, the multifunctional center also transfers this to citizens.

When processing this method is provided a similar package of documents. The amount of state duty is paid at a discount until the beginning of 2019. Previously it is necessary in all cases to check the availability and be sure to pay outstanding fines for violating traffic rules. According to the law, employees cannot refuse to issue a document in connection with this, but they have the right to write out a doubling of the fine for failure to pay.

Riding with an expired driver's license is strictly prohibited by current legislation. There is a strict fine in the amount of 5000-15000 rubles for violation, and the vehicle is sent to the penalty area.
