How do I register when staying with friends?
Arrange migration registration with your host before arrival; deadlines and exceptions depend on your nationality and entry category, so request written confirmation of completion.
Coordinate migration registration with your host before arrival, since required deadlines and exceptions depend on your nationality and entry category. A blanket “7 working days” rule is not universal, so ask the receiving party to follow the correct procedure and to provide proof when registration is completed. If you are unsure about legal timelines or the form of confirmation needed, check official guidance or consult local authorities ahead of travel.
