Obtaining SNILS through the MFC

In order to get SNILS for a child, it is enough to bring his birth certificate with you. In the MFP itself, a simple questionnaire of the insured person is filled out in the ADV-1 form. It contains a minimum of fields, so there is nothing wrong with filling out this questionnaire. If necessary, an employee can fill out the questionnaire - ask him for help in filling out the document. Since the child does not have, you need to bring your own, since it is you who are the applicant for the issuance of SNILS to the child.

The child applies to the territorial department of the Pension Fund independently, fills out a questionnaire there in the ADV-1 form. Three weeks after filling out the questionnaire, the child will be able to pick up the finished one.

Please note that regardless of the method of applying for a document, the issuance of SNILS to a child and all other persons is absolutely free.

SNILS - individual number of the payer of obligatory social insurance payments in the Russian Federation. SNILS is assigned by the Pension Fund (PF) after an official request from the applicant himself or his employer. Both citizens of the Russian Federation and foreigners who legally work at Russian enterprises have the right to submit applications. Confirmation of the assignment of SNILS is a certificate of compulsory pension insurance (card green color). Applicants who apply for the first time for an insurance payer number are required to personally submit documents to the PF in their place of residence. It is impossible to obtain SNILS through the State Services portal, however, this resource provides a number of opportunities to speed up and simplify the procedure for issuing SNILS and obtaining a green card.

Who issues SNILS and is it possible to get a number via the Internet

Individual insurance number - a personal account on which data on social insurance premiums are accumulated for subsequent calculation social benefits specific payer. In particular, according to these data is calculated. In order for all social contributions made by the payer to be accounted for on time and in full, the Pension Fund recommends that persons who do not yet have an assignment certificate in their hands apply to the Pension Fund offices at the place of residence with applications for assignment of a number and for issuing a certificate.

Important! The current system of providing administrative services to citizens via the Internet does not make it possible to issue SNILS through the State Services or through the PF website. Through the website of the State Services, you can only find out the data on the SNILS account.


According to the current regulations, SNILS is assigned in the following order:

  • the applicant personally visits the PF at the place of residence;
  • after presentation, the applicant is issued a questionnaire;
  • the completed application form and a copy of the passport are transferred to the PF employee;
  • within three weeks from the date of submission of the application form, the applicant is called to the Pension Fund and issued a certificate (green card) with the SNILS indicated on it.

This procedure is carried out if a person decides to independently issue a certificate of the payer of insurance premiums. In the event that a citizen of the Russian Federation or an officially employed foreigner works at a Russian enterprise, then the employer himself must apply to the Pension Fund with an application to register his employee and assign him SNILS. Of course, this procedure is carried out in cases where an employee is hired who does not yet have his own personal account of the payer of insurance premiums.

What opportunities for obtaining SNILS does the State Services website provide?

Despite the fact that it is not possible to obtain SNILS through the government portal of the State Services or through another website, the State Services provide their users with a number of other services that greatly simplify the issuance of SNILS. It's about about the following services:

  • information and consulting assistance;
  • enrollment in PF.

Complete and up-to-date information on the issuance and replacement of SNILS can be obtained on the pages of the pension fund website - pfrf.ru. Login to the PF website is carried out using registration data from the State Services portal (the same login and password are valid):


One of the most tangible inconveniences associated with receiving administrative services, visitors consider the presence of queues in the offices of officials. Using the State Services website, applicants can avoid the need to stand in line when receiving SNILS. This opportunity is provided through the pre-registration service.

To pre-register for the registration of SNILS, the user must enter the PF RF page through the State Services website, or immediately enter their registration data from the State Services on the page to enter the PF website. In the pre-registration section, select the region in which the user will apply for SNILS:


After that, you must enter your personal data and contact phone number in the appropriate fields of the entry form. The form has a field for specifying SNILS, but it is not necessary to enter this information - an appointment will be made even if the applicant does not have SNILS or does not know it.

After submitting the form, an SMS will be sent to the applicant's phone with the date of the appointment and the number in the queue. According to the service, it will take the visitor no more than 15 minutes to visit the PF branch by appointment.

What documents are needed for registration of SNILS

To apply for SNILS, the applicant only needs to have a valid passport. The Pension Fund will refuse to issue a certificate of the payer of insurance premiums if the passport is expired (the validity of the passport is extended after reaching the age of 20 and 45 years).

Also, in the PF department, the applicant must fill out a questionnaire. The questionnaire is on one sheet and includes only general information about the applicant (demanding other documents from the applicant is an illegal action on the part of the PF employees):

  • initials;
  • Date and place of birth;
  • residential address;
  • information about the identity document.

SNILS replacement

The SNILS number is assigned to the payer of insurance premiums once, but a new payer certificate can be issued again or replaced. This happens in the following cases:

  • in case of loss or damage (replacement);
  • in case of change of surname, first name or patronymic (exchange).

Replacement SNILS certificates through the portal of the State Services is also impossible. The user must follow the same procedure that is provided for the initial issuance of an insurance certificate:

  • personally apply to the PF at the place of residence;
  • submit a package of necessary documents;
  • appear in person at the PF department for a certificate.

In case of loss of a certificate, a citizen or a foreigner submits an application for a duplicate. This application contains personal information, information about the lost certificate, as well as data from an identity document (passport).

If it is necessary to change the certificate due to a change of surname, name or patronymic, an application is submitted to the PF department about the need to exchange the certificate, which also indicates the new personal information and details of the identity document.

In order to change SNILS, the user can also pre-register through the State Services for a certain time to visit the PF. Pre-registration is free.

Conclusion

Despite the fact that it is virtually impossible to complete SNILS through the State Services, the service provides a number of tools to significantly speed up and simplify this procedure. The applicant only needs a passport and a few minutes to pre-book an appointment with a PF employee.

The current level of technology development gives many citizens the impression that all government services can be obtained via the Internet, including you can even get, or the Insurance Number of an Individual Personal Account.

Let's try to figure out if this is so and what are the ways to get SNILS.

Apply for SNILS via the Internet - myth or reality

If you go to the official website of the Pension Fund of Russia, you will find on the pages of this site an unambiguous statement saying that it is not possible to issue SNILS online.

Why not? Because the information that is related to the insured person, including the number of his personal account, does not belong to the category of public information and should be issued only to the insured person himself, and stored exclusively in the Pension Fund.

This provision is fixed in the law "On Individual (Personalized) Accounting in the System of Compulsory Pension Insurance in the Russian Federation". Thus, our calculation is SNILS number via the Internet did not materialize: the Pension Fund does not make it possible to issue SNILS otherwise than in person.

Therefore, if you have lost your SNILS number or if you change your last name, contact the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation directly.

How to get SNILS through the public services portal

The public services website was created to make it easier for citizens to process documents and remove the lion's share of the burden from government agencies. Let's see if it is possible to issue SNILS among other services on the site.


Many citizens would be happy to be able to get SNILS online, but before today this feature has not yet been implemented. The Pension Fund, responding to the aspirations of citizens, promises to resolve this issue, but so far you will not be able to order SNILS through the public service website.

It would seem that in the age of information technology, mass ownership of computer technology and general computer literacy, the execution of all documents should be brought online.


But no, you can get a SNILS number, as before, exclusively at the Pension Fund.

It is impossible to receive such a service as registration of SNILS on the website of public services; it is not in the list of available services.

This possibility is also not provided on the website of the Pension Fund, therefore, it is possible to obtain SNILS now, as before, only with a personal appeal to the Pension Fund authorities.

Where to apply for SNILS

So, we found out that it is impossible to get SNILS either on the website of the Pension Fund or on the website of public services. Where to apply for this document? It depends who you are:

  • If you are, then you can apply for SNILS at the Pension Fund. Just come to the Pension Fund and apply for SNILS.
  • If you work, then your employer must issue SNILS for you as soon as you are hired: in the first 2 weeks.
  • If you need to issue SNILS for a minor child who has not received a passport, his parents must issue a number for him.
  • If the child has grown up to 14 years old, the right to receive his SNILS from this age passes to him. He can get SNILS on his own at the Pension.
  • ​If a child enrolled in training, and he does not have SNILS, the administration of his university should issue SNILS for him.

Also, not yet in all regions of Russia, but work is underway to expand interaction between the registry offices and the Pension Fund.

With such interaction, the registry office transfers all data on the child to the Pension Fund when the child is registered by his parents.

The Pension Fund, having received this data, immediately registers SNILS for a newborn, and the issue is removed.

What documents are needed for registration of SNILS

In order for the Pension Fund to issue SNILS to a citizen, a citizen must bring the following documents to the Pension Fund:

  • Passport or other identification document.
  • Questionnaire for the insured person, drawn up in the ADV-1 form. You can fill it out yourself, it can be filled out for you by the HR department at your employer's organization, or it can be filled out for you by employees of the Pension Fund who will complete the questionnaire in your presence. If you fill out a questionnaire at work and you are absent due to your business trip or illness, this fact must be indicated by the employer in the questionnaire.

How to get ready SNILS? It depends on who submitted documents to the Pension Fund.

If you carried the documents yourself, then getting the finished document also lies on your shoulders. If the employer gave the documents, he also receives SNILS.

hand over to you finished document employer must within 7 days after receipt. Upon receipt of SNILS, you sign the statement, which is then transferred to the Pension Fund to confirm the fact that SNILS was received by its owner.

There may be such a case that the employee has already been fired, and the employer has just received his SNILS for him. In this case, the employer must notify former employee about receiving pension certificate, and if the employee does not return for him, the employer must keep SNILS in the employee's personal file. To date, obtaining a SNILS certificate is possible only when applying to the Pension Fund. There is talk about the possibility in the future to receive SNILS through the public services website, but so far this possibility has not been implemented.
