This price does not include the service of obtaining the opinion of a psychiatrist and a psychiatrist-narcologist, which is issued in the respective dispensaries at the place of registration and only in person. In accordance with the provisions on medical institutions, the provision of such a service is paid, and its cost ranges from 500 rubles to 1000 rubles.

There is no obligation to provide a receipt for the payment of state duty when replacing rights. The traffic police requests information about the fact of payment in the tax service. However, if the payment of the fee is made on the day of the appeal, it is strongly recommended to present a payment receipt in order to avoid misunderstandings. Payment data may simply not have time to appear in the database.

The procedure for replacing a driver's license

When replacing VU in connection with the expiration of the validity period, it is not required to re-take the test for traffic rules.

Replacement VU is carried out personally in any branch of the traffic police across the country. Having a registration in Sochi, you can make a replacement in Yekaterinburg and Khabarovsk.

At present, an electronic queue is operating in virtually all branches. In the terminal, coupons are issued the day, that is, for example, to take a coupon for tomorrow or the day after will not work. And due to the heavy workload of offices, often, coupons run out before noon.

In this case, you can use the portal Gosuslug. Through the Internet to make a record and arrive at the office at exactly the appointed time.

Driving license replacement price

1. Payment of duty in the amount of 2000 rubles. The size is the same for all regions. In addition, some banks may charge a fee. Sberbank has no commission for paying state duty.

An interesting fact: in the Tax Code, the amount of the customs fee is made from consumables on a paper basis in the amount of 500 rubles and 2000 rubles from materials on a plastic basis. This provision is valid and not canceled. However, when contacting the traffic police department, you will be refused to issue a VU on a paper basis, since the Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation of 13.05.2009 No. 365 “On enacting a driver's license” VU on a paper basis does not provide for registration.

2. Obtaining a medical report. Depending on the method of receipt, the cost can be from 500 rubles to 3000 rubles.

3. Travel expenses are determined individually. In Moscow, they will be about 300 rubles.

The minimum cost will be 2,800 rubles.

Maximum costs depend on the cost of medical advice.

The presence of unpaid fines is not grounds for refusing to issue a new driver's license due to the expiration date.

Each motorist is waiting for the day when the driver’s license expires. The closer the expiration date of rights, the more questions arise - how to get new rights, where to do it better and how much does it cost? We asked the same question! Having monitored the domestic Internet, we did not find detailed instructions on how to change a driver's license. All published materials are either very old and are dated 2009, which means they are no longer relevant! Other, more recent publications are of a news nature, without details, or written for a tick, without specific steps that need to be passed to the driver, whose rights it is time to change. However, the analysis of recent articles gave us a tip - the easiest way is to change the driver's license in Moscow through the Multifunctional Center (hereinafter - the MFC) “My Documents”. So we’ll do it, especially since one of our employees’s driver’s license period expires.



The validity of a driver's license is 10 years from the date of issue. The validity period of the rights is indicated on them in the lower right corner in the columns “Date of Issue” and “Valid Until”. For example, the sample driver's license presented in our article was issued on October 16, 2010, and, accordingly, will be valid until October 16, 2020. Now you can change your driver's license, as before, in the traffic police, but we will check how the new service for the replacement of rights in offices works public services   Moscow City "My Documents"

We collect documents for the replacement of rights in the MFC

To replace the driver's license in the MFC, we need a small package of documents, the list of which is posted on the Moscow state services portal - https://www.mos.ru/, namely:

  • general passport;
  • old driver's license;
  • certificate form № 003-B / y;
  • payment receipt of state duty.

We make out a medical certificate to replace a driver's license

With the first and second document of questions should not arise, immediately proceed to paragraphs 3 and 4. Medical certificate in the form number 003-B / y issued on the basis of the passage of the medical commission. To obtain the rights with the most demanded category "B" - cars, you need to pass 4 doctors:

  • therapist;
  • an ophthalmologist (oculist);
  • narcologist;
  • psychiatrist.

First stage -we getconclusion of a narcologist and a psychiatrist

Important!   The conclusion of a narcologist and a psychiatrist must be obtained first, and this can only be done in a state dispensary that serves the area of ​​your registration. A list of drug and psycho-neurological dispensaries, an address, contact numbers and a schedule of their work can be found on the official website of the Moscow Department of Health:

  • drug dispensaries - http://mosgorzdrav.ru/ru-RU/medical/default/list/26.html;
  • neuropsychiatric dispensaries - http://mosgorzdrav.ru/ru-RU/medical/default/list/28.html.

Before you go to the dispensaries for inquiries, it is necessary, first, to clarify whether they serve the area in which you are registered, as well as the schedule for issuing certificates - the time and days of the week. According to the results of visiting clinics and passing specialists, it is necessary to obtain a conclusion about the absence of contraindications to driving a car. To obtain certificates, you must have a passport and money with you, because This service is paid.









As you can see, the conclusion of a psychiatrist cost 1000 rubles, and a narcologist - 700 rubles. Total 1700 rubles. Money is best prepared both in cash and on a bank card. To pay for the conclusion of a psychiatrist, only cash was accepted at the dispensary, but to pay for a narcologist, it was faster to pay from the card, the payment terminal was located directly at the registry. In total, it took about 4 hours to issue two conclusions at the narcological and psycho-neurological dispensary. After visiting specialists, do not forget to put the stamp in the registry at the inquiries!

Second phase -medical examination by an ophthalmologist and an internist

After the conclusions of a psychiatrist and a narcologist from city dispensaries are obtained, it is necessary to choose a clinic that provides medical references in the form No. 003-B / y. Internet monitoring has shown that these certificates make almost all clinics, both public and commercial. However, the services of “pseudo” clinics that specialize in issuing various certificates are more expensive, on average, from 1,200 rubles, while in public institutions   the price is lower. In addition, since 2016, a new form of information on form No. 003-V / U is in effect and judging by the reviews in various forums, such “pseudo” clinics continue to issue certificates on old forms that are not accepted by the traffic police and MFC, respectively.

In this regard, we did not take risks and turned to the clinic of the Federal Tax Service of Russia at the address: Moscow, st. Nizhegorodskaya, d. 28. The cost of processing a certificate on a new form in this clinic is 950 rubles. When visiting the medical service of the tax service, in the registry window, first of all, they clarified the availability of the opinion of a narcologist and a psychiatrist from city dispensaries!



After payment of services for the issuance of rights for the replacement of rights, which is possible both in cash and with a bank card, we were first examined by an ophthalmologist (oculist), and finally by a general practitioner who issued the final verdict - revealed the absence of medical contraindications to driving. It took no more than 1 hour to visit these two specialists.



The process of replacing a driver's license in the MFC

The pilot project on the replacement of rights in the MFC started in 2016. The first office "My Documents", offering this service to the public, was the MFC in the Krasnoselsky district. From February 1, 2017, you can replace your driver's license in the following 10 MFCs:

  • Ostankino and Maryina Roshcha (NEAD);
  • Dorogomilovo (CJSC);
  • Lefortovo and Nizhny Novgorod (South-Eastern Administrative Okrug);
  • Donskoy (SAD);
  • Begovoy (CAO);
  • Pokrovskoe-Streshnevo (SZAO);
  • Obruchevsky (SWAD);
  • East Izmailovo (HLW);
  • Krasnoselsky (CAO);
  • Matushkino (ZelAO).

The addresses of the multifunctional centers and the schedule of their work can be found on the official website of the state services of the city of Moscow - https://www.mos.ru/pgu/ru/md/. From this list, we chose the office "My Documents" in the area of ​​Lefortovo and Nizhny Novgorod (SEAD). After we announced the purpose of the visit - replacing the driver's license in connection with the expiration of the period, the MFC specialist gave us an application form and instructions for paying the state duty, which amounts to 2,000 rubles.





Payment of state duty for the replacement of a driver's license is possible directly in the office "My Documents" through the payment terminal, which accepts cash and a bank card. With a passport, an old driver's license, a certificate in form No. 003-V / y, an application for the replacement of a driver's license and a receipt for payment of the state duty, we proceeded through the window to the specialist responsible for receiving these documents. Next, we took pictures for new rights - for free. The term of making a new driver's license when submitting an application to the MFC is 5 working days not counting the day of submitting the application. The whole process took no more than 30 minutes.

Sociological survey about the new service in the MFC

Have you used the new service of the MFC to replace the driver's license?

it is a set of measures to prepare the necessary package of documents: submitting it to the traffic police and then receiving a new driver's license. As a rule, obtaining the rights itself does not take much time and does not represent a special difficulty for drivers.

  How much does a driver's license replacement cost?

Let's start with the fact that the total cost of obtaining a new driver's license is included.

1. State duty for issuing a document. Its size is 800 rubles. If you replace an international driver's license, then you have to pay 1,000 rubles. The size of the state duty is established by the Tax Code and cannot be changed either upwards or downwards. It should be noted that the state duty for issuing a driver's license of the new sample (from 04/01/2014) has not changed and also amounts to 800 rubles.

2. Commission for payment of state duty. You have several ways to pay the state fee for issuing a driver's license:

  • first of allThis is the traffic police department where you came to hand over the documents;
  • secondlyThis is a public services portal where you can submit documents for registration of rights;
  • third, this is any branch of Sberbank;
  • fourthlyThis branch of a commercial bank.

Of course, there are still many other ways to pay state duty, but we stopped at the most common. By general rule   commission is taken only in case of payment through a commercial bank.

3. The cost of a medical certificate for a driver's license. Regulatory acts, this figure is not established, adopted only the method of its calculation. Therefore, each medical institution has its price list, with which you have the right to disagree. On average, help costs may vary. from 1,000 rubles to 3,000 rubles.

Let's figure it out. This amount is usually paid by those who do not have time to stand in lines and bypass all doctors, that is, they simply buy a certificate.

You can save on this. As a rule, paid certificates (even in public institutions) are available only from a narcologist and a psychiatrist. Inspection of other specialists is free. Therefore, do not be lazy, but undergo a physical examination yourself.

4. Filling in the traffic police application form. When you come to the traffic police to apply for a replacement driver's license, you can be offered services to fill out all the necessary documents. On average, such services may cost from 50 to 200 rubles.

5. To open additional categories of rights, it is necessary to undergo training and pass exams. Training in this case will be paid.

6. Your fines. When checking your documents, traffic police officers "punch" them through the base for the presence of unpaid fines for violating traffic rules. So before you submit the documents to the traffic police, check on the official website of the department whether you have any debts (.

  The procedure for replacing a driver's license

You can replace the driver's license for several reasons:

  • due to expiration;
  • in connection with the loss / theft of the document;
  • in connection with the change of surnames, etc.

Regardless of the reason, the procedure for replacing a driver's license is the same for all cases.

1. Collect the following documents:

  • passport;
  • a medical certificate (with the exception of the replacement of rights due to their loss or damage, as well as a change in the personal data of the driver);
  • old driver's license (if available);
  • personal driver card.

2. Go with them to the traffic police, in the unit at the place of residence. If you temporarily live in a subject, then contact the traffic police at the place of temporary registration and additionally submit a document that confirms the fact of registration.

3. In the traffic police you write a statement on the established model and pay the state fee in the amount of 2,000 rubles for plastic rights or 500 rubles for paper. State Duty can pay in the office, and in the Savings Bank, pre-print details from the official website of the traffic police in the region. On the same site, look at the schedule of work of the necessary traffic police unit, so as not to come to closed doors.

4. Take the application, receipt and all the documents that you brought with you, and go to the specified window. Hand over the documents and wait for them to check. After that you need to take a picture. No need to bring a photo with you. Pay a photo in the traffic police is also not necessary: ​​its cost is included in the amount of state duty.

Usually rights are issued on the day of the appeal. Moreover, you will not spend more than 2-3 hours on the whole procedure of registration of documents and obtaining a driver's license. But if traffic police officers have doubts about the validity of the submitted documents, they can postpone the issue of rights to you for up to 2 months.

This is the procedure for replacing a driver's license in case of expiration of its validity period.

If you change your last name, then, as a rule, the term for replacing the certificate is 1 month after the registration of the marriage. If you do not have time to change during this period, carry a passport with you to confirm that you are you. The procedure for replacing the document does not change, the only thing you need to submit is an additional document, on the basis of which the surname has changed.

If we are talking about replacing a driver's license in connection with his loss or theft, then you must submit a document (certificate), which confirms the fact that the case of the theft was closed and that the driver's license was not found. Therefore, in this case, many traffic police inspectors advise not to declare the theft of documents, and immediately go to re-register them.

It is not required to pass an exam to obtain a certificate, as well as to undergo additional training. Except for the case, if you were deprived of the rights, for example, for being intoxicated.

  Alternative ways, or How to get rights without leaving home

If you do not want to stand in a queue in the stuffy traffic police office and you have a computer with an Internet connection at hand, then you can easily draw up the documents for replacing your driver's license on the public services portal.

For free work on the portal registration is required. If you already have it, then great. We will not postpone the matter indefinitely, but proceed to work without delay.



This method is less time consuming and convenient for those citizens who are in constant traveling or due to certain circumstances cannot come to the traffic police department.

  Fines, or What the story is silent about ...

Let's define right away: for expired driver's licenses, which lie quietly on the shelf or in your wallet, you will not be anything.

But if you suddenly decided to take a chance and go behind the wheel of a car with invalid rights, and a traffic police officer stopped you, then you were very unlucky!

According to Art. 12.7 of the Administrative Code penalty for driving without a license for this is from 5 000 to 15 000 rubles. Moreover, the Administrative Code also implies that the car must be sent to a specialized parking lot.

And now let's rewind the tape back and dwell on the moment when a traffic police officer stops you and asks you to submit documents.

You innocently explain that you forgot your rights at home. The inspector threateningly reminds you that there is a penalty for this. You dutifully nod, because the fine is only 500 rubles. And if you also succeed in “softening” the inspector, he may simply threaten you and issue a warning. But whatever one may say, in case of violation of the norms of this article, your car will go to a specialized parking lot.

Agree, the difference between fines is solid. So try this advice if the situation is hopeless.

But this issue with fines does not close.


Let us recall that in the package of documents that you must pass to the traffic police to issue a new driver's license, there is a medical certificate. In case of its incorrect execution, both administrative and criminal liability are provided for.

A medical worker who entered incorrect information in the certificate may be fined. from 2 000 to 5 000 rubles.

Responsibility for issuing a fake medical certificate is provided for in Art. 327 of the Criminal Code. Moreover, this article extends to those who issued this certificate (sanction - restriction of liberty for up to 3 years, or arrest for up to 6 months, or imprisonment for up to 2 years), and those who, knowing that it is fake, continues to use it (sanction - a fine of up to 80 000 rubles or in the amount of the salary or other income of the convict for a period of up to 6 months, or compulsory work for a period of 180 to 240 hours, or correctional work for up to 2 years, or arrest for up to 6 months).

A closer look at the issue of replacing a driver's license can be concluded that there are pitfalls that can significantly complicate the process of obtaining a document.

They are connected, first of all, with the fact that many try not to burden themselves with paperwork and, having a certain amount in their hands, they simply buy them. Of course, this is the easiest way out of this situation. But at the same time, with careful scrutiny, he may face criminal liability.

Moreover, by acquiring a fake driver's certificate, you create a danger not only for yourself, but also for other road users, since, without going through a physical examination, you do not know whether you have any illness or not.

A driver's license is a document that gives the right not only to drive a car, but also allows you to get some advantages: a well-paid job, the possibility of opening a visa to America and other countries of the world.

The procedure for replacing a driver's license in the traffic police

Before we write about the replacement procedure, we need to know the list of documents for replacing a driver's license in 2017. It is necessary to take care of their collection in advance, in the sense before the delay of the validity of your rights. But what if the deadline has already expired? See the nearest branch of the traffic police take the money for a minibus and in a good way, because driving with an overdue / y is punishable by a fine.

List of documents:

  • Replacement statement   driver's license (you can fill in the traffic police on the spot, or use the services of filling in the same traffic police in the cost of about 900 rubles., but not always the service is provided);
  • Identity document is usually passportWe recommend making a copy of it and taking it with you;
  • If you make a replacement in / in the place of registration in the passport, then you do not need this item. For the rest, you will need documents at the place of stay;
  • Positive conclusion of the medical board () which indicates which categories of vehicles the driver is allowed to drive, additionally make a copy of it (we recommend to pass the medical commission only in checked medical institutions with a valid license, otherwise traffic police can send your certificate, which takes up to one month to check);
  • The document confirming the training in a driving school and its photocopy (the exception will be if you have been trained externally until 2013);
  • Driver's license (if received earlier);
  • Help-request from the traffic police that you were not deprived of the right to control the vehicle (in case of replacement in the REO);
  • Proof of payment of state duty (receipt) for a driver's license;
  • Photos 3x4 cm. 3 pieces (from 2016 in most departments of the traffic police of Russia, this process is automated and photographs are not needed).

Now let's take a closer look at the documents necessary for the replacement (renewal) of a driver's license in 2017 in the traffic police, Krasnodar, Yekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk and other cities of millions. In cities, the less the procedure will be the same.

  1. The application for the replacement of a driver's license, in most cases, you need to take and fill in at the place of replacement. But it is better to make a phone call to the traffic police and to clarify everything. For clarity, how the application itself looks like we provide you with a sample application form for the replacement of a w / v in 2017.
      The application consists of two pages on which you need to write the personal data of the person making the replacement in / in (phone number, passport data, medical information). Additionally, you must register the reason for the replacement, the series and the number of the old rights. The service marks column is filled in by the inspector.
  2. The passport of the Russian Federation, as well as the application is required to provide the inspector, you need it to confirm your identity. It should not be expired, and in some cases require a copy of it if there is no xerox in the traffic police.
  3. The document confirming registration is usually a passport where there is a corresponding mark. But if you, for example, work in another city and you need to urgently change the rights, in this case, you will need a temporary registration at the place of stay (without registering to / from will not change). This document will need to be presented along with your passport.
  4. The medical certificate of the form No. 083 / U-89, order No. 555 is needed to replace the w / c, because it says that your health condition allows you to drive the vehicle, in other words, this is your approval. The timing of issuing a medical certificate is slightly different for different age categories, up to 55 years is issued for 3 years, if it is 55 years old, then for 2 years, and if there are restrictions on health, then for 1 year. So, if your certificate has expired, you will need to go through a medical examination again and make sure that you are healthy, otherwise you will not be replaced by rights.
    Since 2017, a new form of medical certificate 003-V / U has been valid, in accordance with the order of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation of June 15, 2015. No. 344n. And in addition to this, when passing the driver’s medical board, the conclusions of the psychiatrist and drug addict doctors are obtained exclusively in specialized state and municipal medical organizations. The validity period of the certificate is 12 months.
  5. Documents on training - usually look like a book of two pages which confirms that you have successfully completed the training and know how to manage the relevant categories of vehicles. This is not a mandatory document, but it is desirable to have it.
  6. If we change the driver's license because of the expiration date, then we must take the old rights and give them to the inspector.
  7. Help that you are not deprived of rights obtained in the same department of traffic police where the exchange of rights takes place, you need to get it in advance before submitting the application.
  8. Receipt for payment of state duty for the replacement of a driver's license is usually obtained in the departments of traffic police, after which you need to go to Sberbank and pay for it. But in the century of new technologies you can find out the details for paying the duty via the Internet using the official website of the traffic police. On the website, you can immediately fill out and print out a receipt, but first select the branch nearest to you, in addition you will know his phone number and reception hours.
  9. Check in advance whether you need to take photos or in the selected department of traffic police to produce automated production of a driver's license. Now the majority of departments are already equipped with the necessary equipment for photographing the future owner of the new rights.

Well, now let's consider the very order of exchange or renewal of a w / v in 2017 in the traffic police. There is nothing difficult. Once you have collected all required documents   according to the list above, it is necessary to go to the traffic police department at the place of your registration, temporary registration, or the place where you actually live. Since you do not need to pass examinations for rights, they will be replaced within 2-3 hours if there are no queues, but it can be delayed, for example, because of a medical certificate if it causes suspicion to the inspector.

The time period in which you must change the rights is unlimited. But it is better not to delay, and then suddenly the legislation will change. We recommend to start exchanging rights a month before their expiration date.

Above, we have already said that driving a vehicle with expired rights, it’s also if you didn’t have a w / c at all. Do not worry when replacing the fine will not, but if you are stopped by a traffic police officer and your rights are expired, the fine will be discharged. In accordance with Article 28 of the Law “On Road Safety”, it says that when the period for a driver's license has expired, the right to drive is terminated.

1. The grounds for termination of the right to drive vehicles are:
  - expiration of the driver's license;
  - the presence of medical contraindications or previously undetected medical restrictions to the management of vehicles, depending on their categories, purpose and design characteristics, revealed as a result of a mandatory medical examination;
- deprivation of the right to drive vehicles.
  The procedure for termination of the right to drive vehicles in the presence of medical contraindications or medical restrictions to the management of vehicles is established by the Government of the Russian Federation.

From the law described above, we draw conclusions on the basis of Article 12.7 of the Administrative Code of the Russian Federation, Part 1, that for driving a vehicle with expired rights is punishable by a fine.

1. Driving a vehicle by a driver who does not have the right to drive a vehicle (except for a driving ride) is punishable by an administrative fine of between five thousand and fifteen thousand rubles.

Many people want to know the answer to the question, what is the cost of replacing rights. For 2017, the state duty for replacing a driver's license is 2 thousand rubles on a plastic base, and the paper version will cost 500 rubles. We recommend to pay in the offices of the Savings Bank.
