How to find out about traffic police fines
Letter. The traffic police sends the driver a copy of the administrative violation resolution - this is a document with information about the fine and how to pay it. Such a letter does not always arrive. And if the motorist does not live at the place of registration, he will definitely miss the official notification.
At the traffic police department. This is what they did before - they came to the traffic police in person to find out their fines. To do this, you had to stand in line at the administrative practice department. With the advent of online services for checking fines, this no longer made sense.
Through the bank. Some banks notify customers about fines, but such a service must be configured first - saving car data in the Internet bank or application.
Using Internet services. The easiest way to find out fines online is to enter your car data on a service such as “Traffic Police Fines.”

Reference! However, you should keep in mind that the phone number to which SMS will be sent is different for each subject of the Russian Federation.
All methods of checking traffic police fines are written here.
We also invite you to read about the possibility of searching for car fines by last name, INN, VIN code, resolution number, PTS, as well as through Sberbank online, State Services and special applications.
Necessary data to find out traffic police fines for free
Driver's license number. The driver is stopped by an inspector on the road; if a violation occurs, he fills out a protocol and enters his driver’s license number into it. Such a fine will go into the database and will be linked there to the license number. To find out about such fines, the driver enters this number into the verification form.
STS number. The bulk of fines in Russia come from photo and video cameras. The camera records the violation and sends the material to the police. The inspector looks at the pictures and checks the data with information about the car owner in the database, after which he draws up a fine. Fines from cameras are tied to the STS number, so it is also important to enter this number on the form.
Resolution number (UIN). Each fine decision has this number at the top of the document. If the driver received a paper letter, he can find this number and pay a specific fine using it. But there is no need to receive and store a paper document: just enter the STS and license numbers into the form - the service will show all unpaid fines, they can be paid off immediately.
The required numbers are indicated in large print on the documents: on the STS on the front, on the license - on the back
How to check online unpaid traffic police fines by last name, middle name and date of birth?
It is impossible to obtain information only by the motorist's last name. You will need your vehicle registration number and driver's license details. Information about unpaid traffic police fines by name is available only in the State Traffic Inspectorate department. When visiting the nearest traffic police department, you will also need to provide other personal data to identify the driver.
Viewing traffic police fines by full name and date of birth of the owner plus car number is much easier than entering one last name. Using one search parameter - full name - you can find information only on the FSSP website. Overdue fines for which enforcement proceedings have been initiated will be shown there. Motorists check information about issued decisions in different ways. Internet search is in great demand. The choice of query option depends on the available source data.
To find out whether there are debts for fines in the database, you need to:
- Take advantage of our convenient service. You can view fines based on one or more documents, pay instantly or with a minimum commission. One of the most extensive functionality on the network.
- Check on the official website of the traffic police. Information is provided by driver's license number and STS. After searching, the driver can fully or partially repay the debt.
- State Services Portal. The longest process is the registration procedure. In the future, when logging into the Personal Account, the driver will receive information about new penalties automatically.
- Sberbank Online. Detailed information is provided after entering the driver's license number or vehicle license plate number.
- Yandex service. You can also find the vehicle number or driver's license in the system. Subscription to notifications of new penalties for traffic violations is provided.
Checking by name only has its drawbacks:
- Errors. To accurately identify a motorist, the full name along with the date of birth is not enough. The huge area of the Russian Federation increases the likelihood of coincidences.
- Public information. Full name and date of birth are very easy to check through social networks. There are entire databases of publicly available information. Fraudsters can look at fines, use data, create false documents, and demand that money be transferred under false orders.
- Completeness of information. It is not possible to check the presence of traffic police fines via the Internet by last name in 2021. You must additionally provide your driver's license number, STS, and vehicle registration details.
You can check fines on your Russian citizen’s passport and driver’s license at the nearest traffic police department. Checking passport data is also carried out on the bailiffs website if the debt is listed as overdue.
Why is it important to find out in time whether there are traffic fines?
To pay foreclosures at a discount. In the first 20 days from the moment the driver received a fine, he can pay it with a 50% discount. For example, the fine for exceeding the speed limit by 40 km/h during the grace period will not be 1000, but 500 rubles.
To prevent delays. It is important to pay the fine within the first 70 days from the date of the decision. Otherwise, the case will be transferred to the bailiffs, who will initiate proceedings and add an enforcement fee to the fine - at least 1,000 rubles. If the driver does not find out about the fine even after that, after another 70 days there will be a trial and the money will be debited from the account. There are other methods of forced collection: the debt can be deducted from the salary, the car can be seized, the license can be suspended, or the debtor cannot be allowed to go abroad.
To identify a duplicate car. Sometimes, when checking a fine, you may discover that it was issued by mistake. For example, the camera did not film your car, but someone else’s with an identical number plate - this happens. If you don’t know about the fine, you won’t be able to challenge it—the money will simply be written off from your account.
Wallets and checks
Finding out the amount of administrative fines owed by a person’s last name is not always easy. Therefore, it is better to use the TIN of the potential debtor, as well as information about his vehicle.
If a person has the relevant information, he will be able to achieve the desired result by working with electronic payment systems. In other words, with virtual wallets.
To find out about the fines imposed on a person, you will have to follow these steps:
- Register in an electronic wallet.
- Open the block marked “Checking fines” in the main menu of the payment system. It may be in the "Popular Find" category.
It is done. In different electronic wallets, the mentioned categories and signatures of the system sections may differ, but their general meaning will be clear.
How to find out about traffic police fines: step-by-step instructions
Find a reliable and secure service. This service has three main features:
- data from a common official database. This is the information base of the Russian Treasury - GIS GMP, which contains information about all fines and payments;
- approved payment system. Services do not take money directly, but through a payment system - it is important that it is on the list of approved ones;
- receipts for fines. Their reliable service issues them immediately after payment.
The “Staff Traffic Police Fines” service, for example, takes data from the GIS GMP, cooperates with the payment systems NPO “Moneta” and “A3” of Promsvyazbank - both are on the Treasury list. The service issues receipts for fines and stores them in a separate section - you can download the one you need at any time.
It is also safe to check fines through State Services and the traffic police website, and some banking applications.
Fill in several basic fields. Usually this is the license plate number of the car, STS and license numbers, as well as an email address - it is needed for the service to send notifications of fines.
Get the result. If there are no fines, the service will show this - you don’t need to pay anything. Notifications of new fines will be sent by email if they appear. If there are fines, they will be displayed on the service - you can pay them immediately. The fastest way to do this is with a bank card.
Where can I check the history of traffic fines?
Until recently, drivers could view the history of traffic police fines if they personally contacted the State Traffic Inspectorate office. Now the situation has changed for the better. You can check whether the traffic fine has been paid via:
- official website or traffic police department;
- the State Services portal, which appeared several years ago;
- SMS;
- Yandex money.
There are specialized sites on the network that provide access to such information. Similar portals include the Payment for Government Services resource. However, it is recommended to use the above methods, since the websites do not always provide up-to-date data.
Official website of the traffic police
The convenience of using the traffic police website lies in the fact that the requested information is provided by the resource free of charge and without mandatory registration.
The State Traffic Inspectorate database contains current and constantly updated information. To obtain the required data, you must provide a minimum package of documents.
You can find the paid fine through the “Checking fines” section by entering your car number and driver’s license in the appropriate fields.
Directly to the traffic police
Current legislation allows citizens to collect information about themselves from government agencies. This also applies to cases when a motorist checks the taxes paid for an accident by contacting the traffic police department directly. This option is convenient because a person receives reliable and current information and, if necessary, can find out additional questions: how the debt arose, payment deadlines, and others.
To find out the history of all fines at the State Traffic Inspectorate, you will need to provide a passport, driver's license and vehicle certificate.
Official website of the FSSP of Russia
The bailiffs website contains information about all outstanding debts, including fines for traffic violations. You can request such information by filling out the appropriate form on the main page of the resource. The only drawback of this verification method is that the website usually provides information about debts incurred during a certain period of time. That is, data on the presence of fines from the traffic police is not always reflected in the FSSP database.
State Services website
You can view the paid traffic fine on the State Services portal. This service partially repeats the functionality of the State Traffic Inspectorate website. However, on State Services you can clarify both the existence of debts to government agencies and obtain other information. In addition, the site allows you to make a payment immediately.
The main disadvantage of the resource is mandatory registration, which takes several weeks. This is explained by the fact that the authorization code for new users is sent by mail to their home address. After registration, you need to select from the catalog and make a request by entering your driver's license number.
Electronic wallet Yandex.Money
Registration on this resource takes a few minutes. To clarify information about the presence of outstanding debts to the budget, you will need to go to the “Payments and Purchases” tab and select the “Traffic Police Fines” section. The relevant data is provided by the driver's license number and car registration certificate.
Unlike other services, Yandex.Money notifies users of new administrative penalties.
SMS verification
On the official website of the State Traffic Inspectorate there is a short telephone number to which you can send a text message indicating personal data. In response, you will receive a notification about the presence of administrative penalties. The cost of the service depends on the tariffs of the mobile operator.
Where can you check and find out traffic police fines online?
Service "Traffic Police Fines". Enter the license plate number, STS and license numbers into the form, add your email address and click “Check”. If there are fines, the service will show them. Then click “Pay”.
Check the details and click “Proceed to Payment”.

Government services portal. Checking fines without registration is impossible here. Click “Register”, then find the nearest authorized center on the map and go to it.

Websites of banking institutions. You can also check fines for them by license number and STS, if you are clients of these banks.
You will need to enter information about the car and driver, as well as a phone number or login to log into the online bank.
How to view paid traffic fines
Data on paid fines by motorists is stored on the official website of the traffic police. You can also see this information on the government services website. In your personal account, a person will see not only information about new regulations, but also about the payments he has made. The unofficial website of the traffic inspectorate, Traffic Police Fines, also shows information of interest to the user.
Automation of the provision of data on debts and issued orders is a real breakthrough in cooperation between drivers and road services. Quickly searching for information on the Internet allows people to reduce the time spent traveling to the main department and standing in queues to obtain the necessary information from the inspector. Now the driver can do everything himself. He won't have to go anywhere. All he needs to do is create personal accounts on one or all sites in order to use them when he needs to obtain the information he is interested in. And the fact that search is possible using several parameters at once makes it much easier for the user. After all, a person may not have all the necessary documents for the car at hand. And in this case, it will check only one parameter.
Remember
- The traffic police notifies of fines by paper letter by mail, but not always. In order not to miss a notification, it is better to use the online service.
- To check the fine on the service, it is enough to know the STS number and license.
- The fine must be paid within the first 70 days. It is important to find out about fines on time in order to pay them with a 50% discount and not fall behind on your debt.
- On the “Staff Traffic Police Fines”, to check, just fill in the details about the car and click “Check”. If there are fines, you will see them and can pay them immediately.

Website of the State Traffic Inspectorate
It is not always possible to find out administrative fines by last name. Quite often you also have to know the TIN of the person being checked, as well as the VIN number of his car or the state number of the vehicle.
Using the last two elements, you can quickly check traffic police fines. The best way to do this is on the website of the State Traffic Inspectorate of the Russian Federation. This service works absolutely free and around the clock.
The guidelines for using this technique are as follows:
- Open the site gibdd.ru through any Internet browser.
- Go to the block marked “Car Owners”.
- Click on the inscription “Services” - “Checking fines”.
- Provide the data requested by the electronic form. Usually we are talking about the VIN number of the vehicle body or the state license plates of the vehicle.
- Press the button that is responsible for starting scanning the traffic police database.
Within a few minutes, a citizen will be able to see whether the owner of a particular vehicle has a traffic fine. Very comfortably. However, if the payment to close the penalty accrual was made recently, you will have to wait. The traffic police database is not updated instantly, but every few days.
About payment
It is easier to find out the amount of administrative fines owed by name at the Ministry of Internal Affairs than to cope with this task through Internet resources. Web portals usually help you search for fines of one type or another by TIN or VIN number of the car.
Fines must be paid on time. Usually 60 days are allotted for this from the date of their legal entry into force. If the appropriate payment is late, the citizen will be additionally held accountable. For example, they will start office work, and also seize his property and bank accounts with “plastic”. Typically, such measures begin when a total debt accumulates in the amount of 10,000 rubles or more.
From the first days of late fines, penalties are accrued daily. This means that the longer a citizen does not pay his bills, the more he will ultimately have to pay for the violation.
You can check administrative fines by last name, first name, patronymic or other civil data using any proposed method. The majority of them allow you to immediately close the corresponding accrual.
In addition, you can pay the fine:
- at the cash desk of a bank or other financial institution;
- through payment terminals;
- via ATMs.
The majority of techniques involve charging a commission. Now it’s clear how you can find out the outstanding administrative fines from the traffic police by last name and more. And how can you pay for them, too. Everything is not as difficult as it seems at first glance!
