Law on Permanent and Temporary Residence of Citizens Adopted

Law on Permanent and Temporary Residence of Citizens that came into force on 29 November 2011 offers a more advanced solution with regard to determination of permanent residence for persons who do not have legal basis of residence. If a citizen cannot register permanent residence on one of the legal bases (ownership right over the apartment, contract on lease of the apartment or other legal bases), competent body will bring a decision determining permanent residence at the address of the institution where the citizen is permanently accommodated or the social welfare centre in the territory of which the citizen is located. The citizen should address the institution or the centre with a request so that his/her address can be registered at the address of the institution/centre. Adoption of a by-law is expected in the upcoming period that should ensure implementation of the newly adopted solution.

Besides, the Law simplifies the procedure for registration of new permanent residence, because a citizen will no longer be obliged to deregister residence in the earlier place of permanent residence, which ensures faster registration of residence and simplified record keeping.
