Registration of a car with the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate is a mandatory procedure, without which it is impossible to legally operate the vehicle. One of the key stages of this process is the payment of the state fee, which is confirmed by a properly executed receipt. Without this document, the inspector will not accept your papers, which means your trip to the MREO will be in vain.
In 2026, the requirements for the preparation of receipts became more stringent: now it is not enough to simply pay the fee - the form must be filled out according to a strictly established template, indicating all the recipientβs details. An error in one character can lead to refusal to accept documents. In this article you will find the latest receipt form for payment of state duty, detailed instructions for filling it out, as well as answers to frequently asked questions about fees and payment methods.
Where can I get a receipt form for the state fee for car registration?
There are several official sources where you can obtain an up-to-date receipt form. The first and most reliable - traffic police website. The latest forms of documents that comply with the latest changes in legislation are published here. Alternative options:
- π MFC β in multifunctional centers they provide forms when registering for the vehicle registration service.

Important: from January 1, 2026, the 2022 sample forms are obsolete - now it is mandatory to indicate the BCC (budget classification code) on the receipt for a specific type of registration action. If you download an old form, it will not be accepted by the MREO.

- Recipient details. At the top of the form please indicate:
- π¦ Name:
UFK for [your region], (Inspectorate of the Federal Tax Service of Russia No. [number] for [region]) - π INN/KPP: current details for your region (check on the traffic police website)

The amount in words matches the digital amount|
The recipient's details are relevant for your region|
The purpose of the payment indicates a specific action (not just a βstate feeβ)| -->
Pay special attention to the field "Payment purpose". If simply βstate dutyβ is indicated here without further clarification, the inspector may require that the receipt be reissued. Example of correct filling:
State duty for vehicle registration (issuance of STS and registration plates) at the address: Moscow, st. Staraya Basmannaya, 20 (MREO No. 5 of the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for Moscow)
Methods of paying state fees: which one to choose
There are several ways to pay a receipt, each of which has its own pros and cons. Let's look at them in detail:
- π³ Bank card through State Services. The most convenient option: 30% discount, automatic filling of details, ability to pay at any time. The downside is that a verified account is required.
- π§ Terminal at a bank or MFC. Suitable if you need to pay in cash. Disadvantage: commissions are possible (up to 1-2%) and errors when manually entering details.
- π± Mobile banking (Sberbank Online, Tinkoff, etc.). Fast and without commissions, but requires care when choosing a payee.
- π° Bank cash desk. Reliable, but takes time. The operator will help you check the details, but may charge a service fee.
If you pay via Sberbank Online, select the recipient using keywords: "Staff Police" β "State duty for vehicle registration". The system will automatically enter the current details for your region.
β οΈ Attention: When paying through terminals Qiwi or Eleksnet the receipt may not contain the bank's seal. In this case, print out a receipt confirming the payment (indicating the UIN - a unique accrual identifier) and attach it to the main receipt.
If you pay through State Services, save the electronic receipt in PDF - you can show it to the inspector from your phone, even if you forgot to print the paper version.
Common mistakes when filling out a receipt and how to avoid them
Even a small typo on a receipt can cause your registration to be denied. Here are the most common mistakes and how to prevent them:
- Invalid KBK. Many people use old codes (for example,
18810807010011000110instead of current188 1 08 07010 01 1000 110). Check KBK for official website of the traffic police. - There is an error in the recipient's TIN. The INN of the tax inspectorate and the INN of the traffic police are often confused. Correct format:
77XXXXXXXX(for Moscow) or66XXXXXXXX(for the Sverdlovsk region). - Unspecified purpose of payment. The phrase βstate dutyβ without clarification is not accepted. A specific action must be indicated (for example, βfor issuing STSβ).
- The amount in words and numbers does not match. For example, it says β1500β, but in words it says βOne thousand six hundred rublesβ. Always double check.
Another typical problem is payment using old details. From 2023, bank accounts for transferring duties have changed in some regions. For example, in St. Petersburg and Leningrad region Now a different current account is used:
Recipient's bank: BRANCH OF THE NB OF THE REPUBLIC OF CRIMEA BANK OF RUSSIA//UFK for St. PetersburgAccount: 03100643000000017200
BIC: 044030701
What should I do if I made a mistake on my receipt?
If an error is discovered BEFORE payment, simply fill out a new form. If AFTER payment:
1. Contact the bank with a check and passport for a refund (application for refund of an erroneous payment).
2. Receive a certificate about the erroneous transfer and pay a new receipt.
3. Provide both receipts (incorrect and new) to the traffic police - this will speed up the registration process.
Refunds may take up to 30 days!

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about receipts for state fees for car registration
Is it possible to pay the state fee for registering a car without a receipt?
Technically yes: for example, via Public services or mobile bank you can transfer money without first filling out the form. However, the traffic police will require a document confirming the purpose of the payment. So even if you pay paperless, print a receipt or save an electronic receipt.

The validity period of the paid state duty is not limited by law. You can use the receipt even after several years if the fee has not changed. However, in practice, the traffic police may require a fresh payment (no older than 1 year) to avoid problems with accounting.
