The Ministry of Justice is switching to a single electronic register of registry offices in order to minimize paper document flow

The Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation is completing the transition to a single electronic register of acts of civil status from the usual archives of the registry office. The head of the department, Konstantin Chuichenko, announced this on October 25, 2023 during his speech at the government hour in the State Duma.

The conversion of [registry registry offices] records to digital format is directly related to another major project - the transition to a registered model of state registration of civil status acts. We plan to complete this work together with the Federal Tax Service next [2024], - said Chuichenko.

He noted that the registry model involves securing as a source of legally significant information about the legal state of a citizen an entry in the Unified State Registry Office. The introduction of the registry model will minimize paper document flow and contribute to the further transfer of the services of the registry office to electronic form, the Minister of Justice said. Only in 2020 in Russia, as Chuichenko noted, all the archives of the registry office have been digitized since 1926 - this is only 524 million records.

The minister added that the registry model involves securing as a source of legally significant information about the legal state of a citizen an entry in the Unified State Registry Office.

The head of the Ministry of Justice also presented a report on the integration of the LPR, DPR, Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions into a single legislative space of Russia. By the end of October 2023, work begins there to convert civil records into electronic format.

This will allow, as in other regions, to receive documents of registry offices regardless of the place of their initial issuance. From January 2024, registry office services in all new entities will be provided using the register. In this regard, according to our calculations, it is necessary to convert about 31 million records, the minister said.

Due to the failure, those people whose loved ones died far from home cannot receive the document necessary for the funeral. They are forced to contact the registry offices directly and get up in a live queue. The certification system constantly writes about the error, which complicates the work of registry offices employees.

The situation is under control, it is about to be resolved, - the registry office of the Sverdlovsk region told RBC.

Mishustin reported to Putin on the development of the IT system of the registry office and the prospects for the register of the population of the Russian Federation

On May 6, 2019, Vladimir Putin held a working meeting with the head of the Federal Tax Service, Mikhail Mishustin. The head of the Federal Tax Service informed the President about the current work of the department, tax collection indicators. In addition, he spoke about the registry office system, the operator of which since October 1, 2018 is the Federal Tax Service.

According to Mishustin, the unified registry office system has been put into commercial operation. And if earlier in order to get some kind of certificate, it was necessary to go to the registry office, where a birth record was once made, today a single cloud technology made it possible to actually connect all registry offices with a single chain. Moreover, their number decreased from about 6500 to 4200.

Today, this technology is absolutely centralized. We are already recording about 2 million 700 thousand civil records that have happened since October 1, 2018. And with the Federal Statistics Service in this sense, we are developing the system. Through interdepartmental electronic interaction, this is now available to the federal executive authorities, - said the head of the Federal Tax Service.

He also added that Rosstat will now be able to use new forms of statistics, which are based on data from the unified registry office system.

In addition, within two and a half years, the constituent entities of the Russian Federation will have to process, digitize the archives of registry offices from 1926 and, accordingly, enter them into the system.

I hope that this will also become a good basis for a single register of the population of the Russian Federation, "Mishustin added.

2018

The creation of a unified register of the population of Russia has begun. What information will it include?

The Federal Tax Service of Russia has begun to create a unified population register (EID). At the end of October 2018, the results of the tender for the creation of the first stage of this FSIS were summed up.

The winner of the tender was the "Main Scientific Innovative Implementation Center," which proposed to fulfill the terms of the contract for 68 million rubles. The initial purchase price was 71 million rubles.

The system being created is aimed at improving control over the accrual and receipt of insurance premiums for personalized accounts of individuals, improving the procedures of state and municipal administration, and providing information to authorities. In addition, the new system should improve the process of conducting official statistical accounting of the population, increase the effectiveness of social support, and minimize the number of requests from citizens to receive public services.

According to the concept, the federal state information system for the formation and maintenance of a single information resource containing information about the population of the Russian Federation (FSIS "ERN"), the following types of information should be processed and stored:

Basic Information from Information Source Subsystems	1. Present and previous surname, first name, patronymic
	2. Date of birth
	3. Date of death
	4. Place of birth
	5. Place of death
	6. Floor
	7. Nationality
	8. Date of arrival in the Russian Federation for permanent residence (for immigrants)
	9. Date of permanent residence in another country (for emigrants)
The identity of the physical person information contained in the basic information resources	1. Details of the birth certificate record
	2. Details of the death certificate record
	3. Types, numbers and other information on documents certifying the identity of individuals, foreign citizens living or temporarily staying in the territory of the Russian Federation, and stateless persons living or temporarily staying in the territory of the Russian Federation
	4. Details of documents confirming the right of an individual to drive a vehicle
	5. Details of the document confirming the right of an individual to hunt and preserve hunting resources
	6. Tax Registration Information ID
	7. Identifiers of information about registration of an individual as an individual entrepreneur
	8. Identifiers of information on registration in the systems of compulsory pension, health, social insurance
	9. Identifiers of information on registration with employment authorities
	10. Виды, номера и иные сведения о документах, удостоверяющих полученный уровень education or degree
Learn more about the physical person	1. Information about parents, guardians, trustees of an individual
	2. Information on marital status of an individual, including details of records of birth certificates of a child (children) of an individual
	3. Education Level Information

FGIS "ERN" should be deployed and operated in the system of data centers of the Federal Tax Service. Access of automation objects to the system should be carried out via the Internet using cryptographic information protection tools (CIPF). External interaction will be carried out centrally at the federal level using SMEV.

The first stage of the system's creation includes work on system-wide design, including the development of design solutions for the centralized IT infrastructure of the FSIS, requirements for communication services, database structures, threat models and design solutions for ensuring information security. In addition, the project executor will have to develop technological processes for the formation and maintenance of a single federal information resource, as well as application software.

All the listed scope of work must be completed by December 1, 2018.

Elvis-plus received a state contract for the supply of 567 protected PCs for registry offices

On July 19, 2018, information appeared that Elvis-Plus would be engaged in the manufacture and supply of secure computers for registry offices.

According to information published on the public procurement website, the company turned out to be the only participant in the electronic auction with an initial price of the state contract of 38.4 million rubles. As a result, the victory was awarded to the company without reducing the price of the lot.

Under the terms of the contract, by September 30, 2018, Elvis-Plus must supply 567 computers to all regional departments of the Federal Tax Service. The assembled complexes should include a hardware and software platform, which is a system unit with a set of pre-installed software and five key information carriers, as well as a liquid crystal monitor, keyboard and mouse.

In accordance with the terms of reference of the tender, the supplier must provide the customer with a PC on a processors standard x86-64 architecture with a number of cores of at least four and a clock frequency of at least 2 GHz, DDR3 RAM of at least 4 GB, hard drive at least 32 GB and an integrated video controller.

The operating system installed on the PC must be open source and must be certified by supervisory authorities for the fourth class of security. Specialized software should be application software that implements the remote access protocol to virtual desktops. The diagonal of the monitor screen should be at least 21 inches.

As for PC security, as specified in the terms of reference, secure computers for registry offices must have a system for monitoring the opening of the case with the ability to lock the PC, implemented at the hardware level. It should detect a violation of the integrity of the case both when the external power supply is turned on and when the external power supply is turned off.

The PC hardware and software platform should also provide trusted OS loading, software environment isolation, OS integrity control, role access to security tools, execution of cryptographic functions on Russian algorithms, event registration, work with key documents, memory cleaning to prevent access to residual information.

Other requirements for the PC hardware and software platform include:

• providing two-factor user authentication when starting the OS using a key information carrier.
• equipping with a software security agent (VPN client) implementing cryptographic protection of information transmitted by the PC to communication channels. The VPN client must be compatible with the software "Zastava-office" and "Zastava-management" (developed by Elvis-plus) installed in the data center of the Federal Tax Service, which processes information from registry offices^[14]

The head of the Federal Tax Service Mishustin revealed the "kitchen" of the preparation of a single register of the population of Russia

It is planned to create a unified register of the population of Russia within three years from the moment of adoption of the relevant federal law, said in an interview with the Kommersant newspaper in June 2018, the head of the FNSMikhail Mishustin^[15] The law, he said, is in the process of coordination with other departments, and the concept of such a register has already been adopted by the government.

The new federal resource, which we conceptually comprehend now, should connect information about citizens of the Russian Federation, as well as foreigners who arrived in Russia, from various resources, there should be data about an individual, about his education, marital status, employment, benefits, industry identifiers, about the same TIN, SNILS, other identifiers that people need in everyday life. In the system, both the citizen himself and the authorities should have access to this "golden profile" - it seems to me that this is a very important functionality, we need an absolutely unambiguous correspondence between acts of civil status and information about the person himself in the federal cloud, - said Mishustin.

The capabilities and value of the resource will be huge, added the head of the Federal Tax Service. Thus, the state will be able to provide targeted social support on the basis of objective data, plan and implement state programs more effectively, and abandon the census altogether. This is a qualitatively different level of digital state.

The basis for the creation of a population register should be the system of a single register of civil status acts, the launch of which is scheduled for October 2018. At the same time, according to Mikhail Mishustin, this system was technically ready already in the first quarter of 2018, but the deadlines have shifted slightly.

According to the initial plan, we went into commercial operation of the system since January 2018. Now the number of registry offices is decreasing, there are already less than 6 thousand of them, at the beginning of the process there were about 6.3 thousand of them. All of them worked on various information systems, it was very difficult to bring them together, and it is also impossible to work with their statistics and reporting. Therefore, the need arose to create a single federal resource on acts of civil status - the decision to empower the Federal Tax Service with the authority of the operator was made by the country's leadership back in 2016. The Federal Tax Service solves this task together with the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Finance, which provide regulatory and methodological support, "Mishustin explained.

The head of the Federal Tax Service noted that the federal information system is being tested in pilot operation throughout the country.

Its creation will primarily simplify and unify the work of 15 thousand employees of registry offices: they will all work online from October, in a single cloud, according to unified standards and rules. Thanks to a single register, you will no longer have to send papers from one registry office to another, and even more so to send reports on paper to federal executive bodies related to registry office statistics. Statistics will be automatically available in the environment of e-government, the head of the Federal Tax Service said.

Thanks to automation, we expect that the time for providing any service in the registry office will be reduced to 15 minutes. Nothing more will have to be filled out, all applications will be formed by an employee of the registry office, a signature is required from a citizen. Services will be provided extraterritorially: within the framework of one citizen's visit to any convenient registry office, it will be possible to obtain a second certificate in a matter of minutes, - said Mishustin.

In parallel with the launch of the system until 2021, it is necessary to solve the problem of transferring from paper books to the electronic form of historical records of the registry office, retroconverting paper books starting in 1926, and raising historical information into the created system. This will form the basis for the formation of a register of the population of the Russian Federation. This is done so that this information is convenient and accessible, including for sociological research, for analytics.

In addition, electronic registry office services appear, tied to a single portal of public services, on which it will be possible to find out about the entries in the registry office register regarding himself and minor children. In addition, using a mobile application, by scanning a QR code or entering a record number, it will be possible in a few seconds to verify the authenticity of the certificate from the registry office, which the citizen is holding in his hands.

Creating two-factor authentication tools based on ESMART Token GOST

The Group of Companies ISBC , together with the company Elvis-Plus , took part in the creation of the "Unified State Register of Civil Status Records" (USR Registry Office) for. FTS Russia This was announced on April 24, 2018 by ISBC.

The ISBC Group of Companies has created a strict GOST-based tool for the Unified State Register registry office two-factor authentications CIPF ESMART Token.

The result of the project was the creation of a single cloud environment that united all the authorities of the registry office of the country. The Federal Tax Service of Russia organized the purchase and supply of 15,000 hardware and software systems. All authorized employees are connected to the Registry infrastructure and, after confirmation of access using ESMART Token GOST, provide government services online.

"The main feature of the ISBC solution is high security in accordance with the requirements FSB of the Russian certification system. ESMART Token GOST was created on the basis of the domestic microcircuit MIK 51, which guarantees the absence of any hardware "bookmarks." ESMART Token GOST is certified as KS3. The Russian chip provides hardware support for cryptographic algorithms implemented natively in (OS smart cards in a chip mask) and without the use Java of -applets. The transfer of a single register of entries to digital format based on the Zastava-TK agro-industrial complex will increase the quality personal data of registry office services, and the use of the ESMART Token GOST domestic cryptographic information protection tool will prevent threats of unauthorized access to Russian citizens. " Sergei Panov, General Director of AT Bureau LLC, part of the ISBC Group of Companies'

The launch of the Unified State Registry Office is scheduled for October 2018

By October 2018, the Federal Tax Service (FTS) will launch a unified state register of civil status acts, which will unite disparate registry office systems and become the basis for creating a unified population register in Russia, said in February the head of the Federal Tax Service Mikhail Mishustin FTS^[16]

"The launch of the Unified State Registry Office is scheduled for October 2018," Mishustin said. The unified register will replace 6.4 thousand disparate regional information systems of registry offices. This will completely centralize information about acts of civil status, simplify the procedure for registering acts of civil status and providing information, lay the foundation for the creation of the Register of the Population of Russia. "

In turn, the head of the Ministry of Finance Anton Siluanov noted that the register should combine the digital systems of the Register of Addresses, the Register of the Population, as well as the Unified State Register of Legal Entities (USRUL). "This will become the basis of the digital economy," Siluanov explained.

FTS will spend almost 590 million rubles on the IT infrastructure of the Unified Registry Office

The Federal Tax Service of Russia continues the project to create and develop a federal state information system for maintaining a single state registry office. On March 7, 2017, the agency summed up the results of the auction for the purchase of equipment, software, as well as related services for the creation of a hardware and software complex of the IT infrastructure of this system.^[19]

Two companies took part in the auction - IBS Expertise and Inline Technologies. The lowest price of the state contract (589.3 million rubles) was offered by IBS Expertise, this company was recognized as the winner.

Within the framework of the current project, the Federal Tax Service plans to create a PAC, which should include the IT infrastructure of the secure segment of the system, the segment of user access, the segment of interaction with SMEV and the infrastructure for the information security system (SOBI).

All work on the supply and creation of relevant segments and systems must be completed from the date of conclusion of the state contract and no later than May 30, 2017.

The list of necessary hardware solutions includes database machines, virtualization platforms, analytics computing platforms, servers, personal computers, DSS systems, network switches and routers, mounting cabinets. As for software, here the delivery list includes operating systems, as well as software for reporting and analytics, monitoring and management, backup and recovery of data, virtualization and DBMS.

Specific names are not called for either software or hardware, but the documentation contains a list of requirements for each type of solution. Some types of software products are mentioned in the justification for the impossibility of complying with the ban on foreign software. In particular, this applies to one of the four types of OS and data backup system.

The unified registry office is created on the basis of Russian servers and open source software

By December 2017, the Federal Tax Service expects to complete the second stage of the creation and implementation of a federal state information system for maintaining a single registry office. At the end of January 2017, the department chose a supplier to perform these works^[20].

Applications for participation in the tender of the Federal Tax Service were submitted by two companies - IBS Expertise and the Main Scientific Innovative Implementation Center (GNIVC). The winner was GNIVC, which offered to fulfill all the terms of the contract for 139 million rubles.

Among the tasks that need to be solved within this queue are system-wide system design, development of functional software, its implementation, pilot operation and a number of other works. The contractor is also required to develop training materials to prepare personnel for the new system.

Earlier, in October 2016, the tax service concluded a contract of 76.6 million rubles with the Main Scientific Innovative Implementation Center (GNIVC) for the first stage of creating a registry office system. Within its framework, design solutions were developed for the creation of a centralized IT infrastructure, a typical IT infrastructure of registry offices and solutions for ensuring information security.

The first stage of work under the contract between the Federal Tax Service and GNIVC also involved the development of requirements for the communication services of the Federal Data Center and the Russian Data Center of the Federal Tax Service, for the provision of communication services to the registry office and for the transfer of inherited data from existing regional systems.

To perform part of the work, GNIVC of the first stage involved a subcontractor - IBS Expertise as the only supplier. For 5.81 million rubles, the integrator had to develop sections of the SOW for the creation of a federal system in terms of requirements for a set of technical means, design solutions for the creation of a centralized IT infrastructure of the system and design solutions for a typical IT infrastructure of registry offices^[21].

As a result, the centralized IT infrastructure of the registry office was designed on the basis of hardware and software systems "Rock-CP/Postgres" developed IBS jointly with, Depo Computers operating under the control of and. operating system ALT Linux SPT DBMS Postgres Pro Enterprise

It also uses server virtualization of Rosplatforma based on the Skala-R 300 series and Skala-SR/Analytics platforms using the Polymatica accounting and analytical system. The use of the Skala-P 300 series platform is also expected to organize a virtual user access infrastructure (VDI).

The objects of automation of the federal state information system for maintaining a single state registry office are bodies authorized to register civil status acts. The total number of automation facilities is 6.4 thousand civil registration bodies, 234 consular offices of the Russian Federation outside the territory of the Russian Federation on the territory of 147 states, data are given in one of the TAs for the project. The total number of employees of the registry office operating using the system will be about 16 thousand.

2016

The State Duma adopted in the first reading a bill on the creation of a single registry office

On May 20, 2016, the State Duma adopted in the first reading a bill on the creation of a unified state register of civil status records (registry office).

Earlier, the head of the State Duma Committee on Family, Women and Children Olga Epifanova ("Fair Russia") explained that such a register will contain:

• a set of civil records;
• information about religious rites before the registry offices were formed or restored;
• on documents issued by the competent authorities of foreign states as a certificate of civil status outside the Russian Federation.

According to the bill, electronic registry office documents will be equivalent to those drawn up on paper. The bill defines the deadline for the completion of work on the translation into electronic form of books of state registration of civil status acts until December 31, 2019^[22] the ^[22].

Plan to allocate 10.6 billion rubles for the creation of a register

In April 2016, the estimated cost of developing an electronic unified state register of civil status records (registry office), operated by the Federal Tax Service (FTS), became known.

According Interfax to the press service, Governments of the Russian Federation on April 14, 2016, a bill on the creation of a single registry office will be considered, which, according to (Ministries of Finance the developer of the bill), will improve the quality of administration of revenues of the budget system. Russia

In addition, the Ministry of Finance expects that a unified information system will help reduce the timing of the provision of public services for the registration of civil status acts, as well as ensure their provision at the applicant's place of residence.

An Interfax source familiar with the accompanying documents to the bill says that the creation of a single registry office will cost the state 10.6 billion rubles. These investments will begin to pay off in 2020 by reducing 500 million rubles of annual costs for the maintenance and maintenance of information and telecommunication infrastructure in the regions carried out through subventions from the federal budget.

The bill, approved by the government's commission on legislative activities on April 11, 2016, involves the translation of civil registration books into electronic form.^[23]

Bills are being discussed

In March 2016, the text of the bill regulating the procedure for maintaining the Unified State Register of Civil Status Records^[24]" was published on^[24] discussion portal^[24] draft^[24] legal acts.

The operator of the information system, according to the bill, will be the Federal Tax Service. On the basis of the registry office information, a register of the population of the Russian Federation will be formed, the bill says.

Other government agencies will be able to receive information from the register through the system of interdepartmental electronic interaction (SMEV).

The registry office will combine all civil records since 1926 into one resource. The launch of the FSIS "EGR Registry Office" by the current legislation is scheduled for January 1, 2018. Until this date, regional authorities will enter in the register records from civil registration books compiled before the entry into force of the law.

The introduction of a single software, the completion of the translation of all available records into electronic form, their inclusion in the information of the Federal State Register Office "Unified State Register Office" will allow providing registry office services to citizens, regardless of their place of residence and place of storage of information.

The act books collected from the second copies of the civil records are subject to destruction after the entries contained in them are included in the register, the bill says.

President Putin told the government to submit draft laws on the register to the Duma

In January 2016, President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on additional measures to strengthen payment discipline in making settlements with the PFR, FSS and MHIF, which decided the government to submit to the State Duma by May 1, 2016 draft two laws^[25].

The first should provide for "the assignment to the authorized federal executive body of functions for the administration of insurance premiums" paid to the listed funds.

The second concerns the assignment to the same body of functions for the formation and maintenance of a single federal information resource containing information about the population of the Russian Federation, including information on the registration of civil status acts.

What problems will solve and create a single registry office and the population base of Russia

Simplification of public services

At the beginning of 2016, according to the Ministry of Justice, there are 2.6 thousand registry offices and 3.8 thousand local governments of rural settlements in Russia. Registry offices at the federal level are not subordinate to anyone: they are established by regional governments in the form of independent executive bodies or in the form of structural divisions of other executive bodies or local governments.

Registry office information is often required to provide public services. As of March 2016, they have the status of personal storage documents and, accordingly, they must be presented in the form of paper documents upon receipt of public services.

There is a plan to exclude registry office information from the list of personal storage documents. To do this, all registry offices were connected to the SMEV and learned to respond to interdepartmental requests. But the problem is that if a citizen does not ask which of the registry offices contains the entry, then the agency providing the service does not know where to send the request, and is forced to send it in a fan throughout the country, - explains TAdviser interlocutor in one of the federal departments. - This is a completely non-working scheme. In order for interagency requests to work, it is necessary that there is a central system that knows where the necessary act is stored

According to TAdviser, the Ministry of Telecom and Mass Communications has been negotiating with the Ministry of Justice for several years (it oversees registry offices at the federal level). The departments could not agree and as a result, the creation of the system was entrusted to the Federal Tax Service.

Fraud prevention

The main problem is that the state does not know anything about its citizens, "an interlocutor in another federal department explains to TAdviser. - All FNIV registers are scattered. The Federal Tax Service has one slice, the FIU has another, the FMS has a third. According to the registry offices, another cut. The state cannot make one big bundle for a citizen - that he was born, studied, married, pays taxes, social contributions

In addition, many bases are not federal. First of all, these are registry offices, the source adds.

There are no statistics and cannot be counted - how many marriages, divorces were. Not all subjects have a regional base. If there are decisions, then they are made on the knee. They cannot be docked. When questions of social deductions, the status of people, begin, it turns out that you can, for example, marry five times. You come, you apply to the registry office, and they do not know that you are already married in another subject. For the sake of maternity capital, people register the birth of the same child in different registry offices. This is possible even within one region

The centralization of registry offices, and then the general register of the population with statuses, according to the TAdviser interlocutor, will solve these problems. Another bonus from its emergence may be that there will be no need to conduct a census and spend a lot of money on it, he adds.

Bifurcation of responsibility

The enlargement and concentration of administrative and information resources well corresponds to the logic of modern Russian public administration, says Mikhail Braude-Zolotarev, director of the center for IT research and expertise of the RANEPA.

The main argument in support of such initiatives, as a rule, is "efficiency improvement." In this case, he explains, a single information resource should improve the collection of taxes and mandatory contributions by comparing various kinds of information related to taxpayers and previously contained in different information resources.

Unfortunately, other consequences, as a rule, in such cases are calculated worse. There have been many examples of "bifurcation" of responsibility, when the performance of functions remains with one body, and the maintenance of an information resource moves to another, in recent years there have been many, but few successful among them, on the contrary, the expert says. - And in general, both the concentration of powers and the creation of information "superbases" can hardly be a tool if the functions themselves and the order of their execution do not change

Data Security Threats

Also, according to Braude-Zolotarev, threats to the safety of personal data are growing. System failures are more critical.

Such consequences should be calculated and discussed. In this case, I did not notice such a discussion

Apart is the inclusion in a single resource of information about the population of the Russian Federation, including the registration of acts of civil status, the expert notes.

Despite the fact that the exact composition of this data has not yet been determined, the registry office information alone is enough to say that this is a revolution. In between, a population register can be created in the country, and even with the binding of a large number of personal data to it

In most developed countries of the world, according to Braude-Zolotarev, they try to avoid this kind of concentration of personal data, moreover, bans on the comparison and automatic processing of information related to different areas of public administration are legally introduced. Most often, "barricades" of various kinds of heights are placed between registration, tax and social accounting of the population, limit the use of uniform identifiers of these resources, etc.

We are won by a technocratic, not a legal point of view. I'm not sure it's the right thing to do

Another TAdviser interlocutor says that over the past ten years, a taboo has been established in Russia to create a full-fledged population register. The reasons, in his opinion, are two - the problem of the "big brother" and the discontent of the Russian Orthodox Church.
