How to pay the state fee for a driver's license

Every citizen of the country can sign up for the traffic police exam through State Services in 2021. This method is the most convenient and effective in all respects, and therefore its popularity is increasing every year. However, there are also some peculiarities that you need to know for successful recording.

The government services portal is an extremely functional website that has been operating for many years. With its help, citizens can receive various services from government authorities without spending a lot of time waiting in queues. Often, paying state fees on the website comes with a significant discount, which is an additional benefit.

Ways to pass the traffic police exam

For each driving school student, the traffic police exam becomes the final mandatory stage. Only upon successful completion will a driver's license be issued, with which you can drive a car.

In order to take the exam, you must first register with the traffic police.

Today this can be done in the following ways:

come to the traffic police office in advance and fill out a written application to take the exam in the future;
fill out an application on the government services website. The entire process is greatly accelerated because the main fields are filled in automatically.

The first option is used extremely rarely today and is an exception, because it is much easier, faster and more efficient to sign up through State Services.

IMPORTANT !!! In most cases, driving schools take care of most of the organizational issues and the entire group of students goes to the exam together. However, only the student himself can submit a personal application from the site, so you need to know how to do it correctly.

The organizational procedure for registering for an exam may vary slightly depending on the driving school, but the general provisions will be the same in any case.

ATTENTION !!! You should know that not all regions of the country have a government services website. Although in 2021, in almost every more or less large city, the service is already connected. It is necessary to clarify information for each specific locality.

Despite the simplicity and convenience of the service, it has some significant disadvantages:

Many users of the site complain that it is often not accessible, crashes and has other problems. These problems are indeed present and seriously complicate work, but every year the number of problems decreases, which increases the stability of work;
the need to upload electronic copies of documents. Not everyone has the opportunity to attach scans, so this condition can be a problem;
The need to fill out all the documents yourself gives rise to some conflicts. Sometimes errors are made in the questionnaires, as a result of which the government authority cannot provide the service and the registration has to be done a second time;
mandatory pre-registration. To use the site, you will need to create an account and then verify it by contacting a special institution. This makes the entire registration process relatively difficult.

Despite all the disadvantages, there are still more advantages, so it makes sense to use the site.

Filling out an electronic application to register for an exam at the traffic police

Information about the vehicle category. Select the category of the vehicle you were trained to drive.
Personal Information. In the following blocks, indicate personal, passport, contact information and residential address.
Personal data: columns full name, date of birth, contacts are loaded from the settings of the personal account of the State Services portal. If the form is not completely filled out, enter the missing information or change it if it is not relevant.
In the “Passport data” section we enter the series, passport number, who and when the document was issued, citizenship, country and place of birth.
We display the residential address in the same way.
Information about the driving school and medical certificate. Indicate the name of the driving school, the number of the training certificate and the date it was received. At your request, you can enter the driving school license number.
In the Medical Certificate Information form, fill in the number, date of issue, name of the institution, and license number. Here, mark the category of the vehicle you will be allowed to drive.
Selecting a traffic police department. In the proposed list, generated based on your place of residence, select the department where you will go to take the exam. Also indicate the date and time of your visit.
Carefully check all required fields, print out the electronic ticket, confirm that you are aware of the rules for submitting an electronic application and submit your application for moderation.
Wait for the date and time of your visit to be approved in your personal account on the State Services portal or in the way you specified in the settings (PUSH notification, email, SMS).
With paid state duty and original documents, come to the traffic police at the specified time, do not be late.

When to register for the exam

Passing an exam at the traffic police is not a regular action and cases when it is necessary to do this are enshrined in law.

Passing the traffic police exam is provided in the following cases:

Immediately after driving school, when the student completes training, he receives a certificate and all that remains to obtain his license is to pass the exams. Today, training in a driving school, even formal, is a prerequisite, so it is impossible to obtain a driver’s license without a driving school;
after being deprived of a license for driving while intoxicated. For drunk driving, the law stipulates not only the deprivation of rights for up to 2 years, but also the subsequent mandatory passing of a theory exam.

It is expected that exams should be passed on the first attempt, so if the exam is not passed, you will have to re-register through government services. One statement applies to all parts of the test: both the theory and the driving test.

If the attempt is unsuccessful, the retake will be postponed. You will be able to re-register no earlier than in a week, and then only in a month. Due to the fact that the theoretical exam is valid for only six months, with a large number of retakes, you will probably need to take all exams from scratch.

Gaining access to your personal account

Before you sign up for the traffic police exam through State Services, you will need to register on the website itself. It is required to go through several successive stages, and at the final stage the maximum functionality of the service is revealed.

Since a confirmed educational qualification is required, in order to apply for the exam, you should understand the entire cycle from beginning to end.

In order not to rush around looking for the necessary data, it is recommended to have some documents on hand:

Passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation.
SNILS.
Mobile phone number.
Email.

After documented preparation, you should proceed directly to obtaining the knowledge.

Registration on the government services website

To register for the exam, you must have the full functionality of the government services website, which is provided only after verifying your account.

The initial account creation takes place within 5 minutes. The user provides his personal data, passport data, phone number and email address, after which a confirmation letter is sent. At this stage, the functionality of the site is significantly limited, and in order to unblock it you will have to confirm your identity.

This can be done using any of the methods given on the site. These vary depending on the region, but most often confirmation occurs in the following ways:

submission of all required documents to the MFC. The center staff will take the scans, confirm the data on the website, after which an additional message will be sent. Instead of the MFC, such services are sometimes provided by other organizations, for example, banks;
If there are no places in the city where confirmation takes place (although this is practically impossible), documents can be sent by mail. This method takes longer, and you will have to pay for the shipment itself.

Depending on the location of confirmation, the procedure can be either paid or free. The second option is more common.

Sign up on the website

After your account is verified, a message will be sent to your phone number. This means that full functionality for using the site is open. To take the exam, you must fill out an application in a special section.

If the test is taking place for the first time, most likely the whole group will take the exam, so the administration of the driving school will inform you of the time at which it is best to fill out the form on the website. If you plan to take the exam yourself, you can sign up at any time.

IMPORTANT !!! The process itself is as simple as possible and will not take more than 10 minutes. The system will gradually prompt you to fill out certain forms, after which final confirmation will be required. Since the account information has already been confirmed, most fields are filled in automatically.

To register for the exam, you must have the following documents:

passport or other identification document;
certificate of completion of training at a driving school;
medical certificate issued in a special form;
directly an application filled out directly on the website.

It is important to remember that a medical certificate is valid only for 1 year, after which it must be reissued. Without this certificate, it will be impossible to take the exam and obtain a license.

There is no state fee for taking the exam, so you won’t have to pay. After successful registration, all you need to do is come to the traffic police department at the appointed time and begin the exam.

Obtaining a driver's license

After successfully passing all exams, you can go and get a driver's license. This is done again on the government services website, since it will be much faster and cheaper.

ATTENTION !!! To obtain a driver's license, you will need to fill out the appropriate application on the website and pay the state fee offered at the end. This can be done in various ways. Payment on the site comes with a significant 30% discount.

After payment, you must select a convenient time to visit the traffic police. Queues are scheduled every 15 minutes. Delivery takes place at the specified time, so the driver needs to arrive a little early before his turn. You won’t have to wait long; the whole process rarely exceeds more than one hour.

A photograph for your license is taken directly at the department, but if you wish, you can bring your own, taken according to established standards. Non-standard photographs cannot be used. The document is prepared right in front of the driver and lasts about 10 minutes.

Procedure

To get a driver's license, you need to successfully pass the exams at the traffic police, and before that make an appointment and fill out an application. A similar operation can be performed by personally visiting the traffic police department and submitting the original documents. There is a much simpler way - use the unified portal of government services and submit an application in electronic format. This is just the first step, the next step is to pay the fee. The payment amount is 2000 rubles, and this amount is established for all regions of Russia.
