The alternative to the passport is a service called 'Simple electronic signature'. It can be activated in one of the three ways:

  • Remotely using a confirmed account on the state services website ;
  • Fill out an online form, come and sign it at the Russian Post office, bringing your passport;
  • Come to the Russian Post office with your passport and fill out a paper form.

The new rule is stipulated in the order of the Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media of the Russian Federation dated April 17, 2023. Thus, according to the order, registered postal items will be accepted from September 1, provided the senders or their representatives are identified.
