In 2026, the rules for checking into Russian hotels have changed significantly due to the entry into force of new Rules for the Provision of Hotel Services (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 1912). The main focus is on digitalization and expanding the list of documents.

Now the passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation is not the only way to confirm your identity. Since 2026, the legal documents for registration have become:

  • A driver's license is a full—fledged document for settlement (the norm came into force in January 2026). A
  • foreign passport is now officially allowed for registration of citizens of the Russian Federation (previously it was allowed only for permanent residence abroad).
  • Digital passport (Public Services) — identification via a QR code in a mobile application (from April 1, 2026).
  • Biometrics - check—in "by person" through a Single Biometric System (EBS) in hotels that have installed special equipment.
  • The digital ID in the MAX messenger is a new way of fast verification without paper questionnaires.

Important:Although the law allows check-in based on rights or biometrics, hotels have the right to require a paper passport if they do not yet have technical systems configured to integrate with the databases of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
