A hotel must check a guest in against a document and report them to the Ministry of Internal Affairs: a foreigner — within one working day, a Russian citizen — within 24 hours. A short-term flat is let to a person the owner has never seen. A tour operator retypes passports for bookings and visas. We recognise passports of Russia and 195+ countries and territories, residence permits and visas, check the document for forgery and pass the fields to your system via the API.
The card shows whose documents this business accepts and what to connect for it. A detailed page for each segment will appear in this section.
Hotels and short-term rentals
The guest's document before check-in and registration on time.
The guest's passport goes into the PMS without manual entry: by a link before arrival or at the front desk. Passports of 195+ countries and territories with MRZ, visa and residence permit, document anti-fraud and the register of controlled persons of the Ministry of Internal Affairs — before check-in. The hotel sends the Ministry of Internal Affairs notification itself, already without retyping.
The guest and the flat's owner — by document before the booking: passport authenticity, validity against the Ministry of Internal Affairs database, wanted lists. Protection against check-in on someone else's passport and against fake landlords.
Tour operators and booking
Tourists' and travellers' passports without retyping.
Tourists' passports — into the contract, the booking and the visa form: the surname and given name in Latin letters exactly as in the machine-readable zone, the passport's validity period visible at once.
Passports of employees who travel — into the trip profile without manual entry. A customer company with a large prepayment — by INN before the invoice is issued.
Since 1 March 2026 hotels, hostels, sanatoriums, holiday camps and campsites have operated under the new Rules for the Provision of Hotel Services — Government Decree No. 1912. They list the documents on which a guest can be checked in and refer to the rules for registering citizens and the migration registration of foreigners.
NeuroVision recognises the document, checks it for forgery and passes the fields to your system. The hotel handles the guest's registration and the Ministry of Internal Affairs notification — through its own accounting system or the Ministry of Internal Affairs service.
Decree No. 1912, cl. 18–21 and 25; Decree No. 713.
Decree No. 1912, cl. 22–23; 109-FZ, Part 3.1, Art. 20.
Decree No. 1912, cl. 19, 21, 24.
From 21 June 2026 accommodation providers have separate articles of the Code of Administrative Offences, and the fine depends on how late the notification is. For foreigners the fine is imposed for each guest separately. The amounts are for organisations and sole proprietors providing accommodation services.
Organisations and sole traders — 80 000–100 000 ₽
Repeated — 160 000–200 000 ₽ (Part 2)
Organisations and sole traders — 400 000–500 000 ₽
For each foreigner — separately (note to the article)
Organisations and sole traders — a warning or 20 000–30 000 ₽; in Moscow and Saint Petersburg — 25 000–40 000 ₽
Repeated — 40 000–60 000 ₽; in Moscow and Saint Petersburg — 50 000–70 000 ₽
Organisations and sole traders — 250 000–750 000 ₽
In Moscow and Saint Petersburg — 300 000–800 000 ₽
The guest sends a photo of the document when booking or shows the passport at the desk. While they wait for the key, you already know who they are, whether the document is genuine and whether it has expired.
The document into the questionnaire. A passport, travel passport, residence permit and visa are recognised from a photo — the fields arrive in JSON.
Authenticity. A photo from a screen, a printout, a pasted-in photo and editing in an editor are visible before check-in.
Database checks. Validity of a Russian passport, wanted lists, the register of controlled persons, sanctions lists — as selected.
The guest's record and booking. The fields from our response are written into the record via the API.
Registration and notifications. Information on Russian citizens and notifications about foreigners are generated and sent by your system or the Ministry of Internal Affairs service.
Storage. How long to keep the guest's data on your side is up to you — under Federal Law 152-FZ.
Digital ID and Gosuslugi. Check-in using the details from the national messenger and the Gosuslugi app — a separate channel.
The Unified Biometric System. Check-in by biometrics — only through the Unified Biometric System.
Visa validity and migration status. We recognise a visa as a document, we do not check the period of stay against the Ministry of Internal Affairs databases.
We do not replace the guest accounting system and do not file notifications with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. We remove manual entry and forgeries at the entrance — where an error in one letter turns into a repeat notification and a photo of a screen into a guest who does not exist.
An owner can let a home by the day if they respect the neighbours' rights and the rules of using the building. Hotel services in a flat — room cleaning, meals, a reception — remain prohibited. A foreign guest must be notified to the Ministry of Internal Affairs within 7 working days; an additional document in a check — 10 ₽, a database check — 5 ₽.
To let a flat under a short-term lease. It is not allowed to turn a residential premises into a hotel: to provide hotel services in it. Guest houses in 18 regions operate in an experiment until the end of 2027 — only if they are entered in the register of accommodation facilities.
The host party — the owner or tenant of the flat. The Ministry of Internal Affairs must be notified of a foreign guest's arrival within seven working days. Liability for a violation is under Article 18.9 of the Code of Administrative Offences, not under the new article for hotels.
Ask for a photo of the passport before the booking: the document is recognised and checked for forgery and validity, the person — against wanted lists. The key goes to the person whose passport you saw, not to data typed in by someone.
For an aggregator, the person who lets the flat matters too: whether the passport is genuine, whether the name matches the data in the listing and payouts, whether the person is wanted. Ownership of the flat is checked against an extract from the Unified State Register of Real Estate — this is not our check.
One books, another stays
The guest sends a photo of someone else's, a lost or an edited passport. Anti-fraud shows a photo from a screen and traces of editing, a check against the Ministry of Internal Affairs database — an invalid passport.
The prepayment goes to a fraudster
The listing shows someone else's flat, and the “owner” has a forged or someone else's passport. The aggregator checks the landlord's document before the first payout, not after a guest's complaint.
Damage and neighbours' complaints
The booking is made by a dummy guest for one evening. A document received before check-in and wanted-list checks filter out those who do not want to show a real passport.
The tour falls through at the airport
A manager retypes the surname from the travel passport with a typo — the ticket or visa is issued for a different person. Recognition takes the name from the machine-readable zone.
A group booking without payment
A corporate client books a block of rooms or a group tour with deferred payment. A company check by INN shows a shell company and a mass director before the booking is confirmed.
109-FZ
The guest is registered on time
In the season a manager retypes dozens of travel passports a day — into the contract, into the carrier's and hotel's booking, into the visa form. Each typo in the Latin letters means reissuing a ticket or a denial of boarding.
The surname and given name in Latin letters are taken from the machine-readable zone, not typed from memory. The check digits confirm that the passport number and dates have been read correctly.
The passport expiry date is visible at once. The manager notices a passport that expires before or soon after the trip before paying for the tour, not at the border.
Passports of adults and children, Russian and foreign, are uploaded in one session: the first document — in the package, each next one — at the price of an additional one.
If the tourist is a foreigner living in Russia, their residence permit or visa is recognised as an additional document. The destination country's requirements for the visa and the passport validity are checked by the tour operator.
Three steps from a photo of the document to the guest's record. The guest uploads the passport by a link from the booking confirmation or the administrator photographs it at the desk — then everything goes through the API.
The guest photographs the passport by a link from an e-mail or in an app, the administrator — with a camera at the desk. The document type and country are determined automatically, the number of attempts per image is limited.
The check digits of the machine-readable zone are recalculated, the image is checked for a screen, a printout and editing. As selected — validity of a Russian passport, wanted lists, the register of controlled persons, sanctions lists.
The fields arrive in JSON by session identifier or by webhook and are written into the PMS or CRM. Disputed documents go to the administrator, registration and the Ministry of Internal Affairs notification are handled by your system.
A set for a hotel, a short-term rental or a tour operator is assembled from six products of one platform. Connect only what you need — payment is for the checks performed.
A Russian passport with registration, a travel passport, a driving licence — fields in JSON without manual entry.
Passports and identity cards of 195+ countries and territories, residence permits, temporary residence permits and visas — 16 000+ document types.
A photo from a screen, a printout, a pasted-in photo, editing in an editor, logical inconsistencies — in every document check.
Passport validity, wanted lists of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Federal Penitentiary Service and the Federal Bailiff Service, the register of controlled foreign persons — from 5 ₽ per check.
Sanctions lists of OFAC, the EU, the United Kingdom and the UN by the Latin spelling of the name, international compliance screening — for large prepayments.
A corporate client or a partner travel company: status, signs of a shell company, courts and debts — before the booking is confirmed.
The price per document check — a session in which the guest's document is recognised and checked for forgery. No subscription fee, the more checks a year, the lower the price.
10 ₽ per document in the same session
A residence permit, a temporary residence permit, a visa, a registration page, a driving licence. The backs of licences and ID cards — free of charge.
Recognition of a passport or identity card of 195+ countries and territories, the machine-readable zone and document anti-fraud. At 10 000 checks a year — 18 ₽.
5 ₽ per check
Validity of a Russian passport, wanted lists, the register of controlled foreign persons. International compliance screening — 36 ₽.
Terms of keeping the original images — per the plan and the flow settings. A company check by INN — on request. For 100 000+ checks a year the price is calculated individually.
Hotel chains and aggregators need an API into their booking system. A small hotel or a flat owner will be fine with a widget link and a web cabinet.
Guests' passport data is a flow of personal data, and a foreign guest comes with a document the administrator has never seen before. You need a provider whose data is in Russia, with forms of 195+ countries and territories and a price per check.
A Russian passport, a travel passport, a foreign passport, a residence permit and a visa are recognised by one service and checked for forgery. There is no need to keep a reference of forms at the desk and retype Latin letters.
One request instead of a reference of forms and manual entry.

Briefly on the concepts that come up when checking in guests, in migration registration and when booking tours.
Passport recognition, protection against forgeries and personal data — in our blog.
Under the Rules for the Provision of Hotel Services (Decree No. 1912, in force since 1 March 2026): a Russian citizen — by a Russian passport, a travel passport or a temporary certificate, and without them — by a Russian driving licence. A foreigner — by a foreign national's passport or another recognised document. A child under 14 — by a birth certificate and the documents of an adult with the parents' consent.
Yes, if the guest is an adult Russian citizen: since 1 April 2026 they can pass the passport details through the national messenger or the Gosuslugi app, and a hotel may use the Unified Biometric System. Foreigners and children check in with a paper document. NeuroVision works with paper documents and their photos.
Within one working day following the day of arrival (Part 3.1, Art. 20 of Federal Law No. 109-FZ). Of departure — no later than 12 hours of the working day following the day of departure. Information on the registration of a Russian citizen is passed within 24 hours.
From 21 June 2026 — under Article 18.9.1 of the Code of Administrative Offences: for being one working day late 80 000–100 000 ₽, repeated — 160 000–200 000 ₽, more than a day late — 400 000–500 000 ₽, for each foreigner. For late information on Russian citizens — under Article 19.15.3 of the Code of Administrative Offences, up to 750 000 ₽, in Moscow and Saint Petersburg — up to 800 000 ₽.
No. We recognise the document, check it for forgery and pass the fields to your system via the API. The guest's registration and the arrival and departure notifications are generated and sent by your accounting system or the Ministry of Internal Affairs service.
Passports and identity cards of 195+ countries and territories — 16 000+ document types, with and without a machine-readable zone. A residence permit, a temporary residence permit and a visa can be added to the same check as an additional document.
Yes. Send the guest a widget link in the booking confirmation e-mail: they will photograph the passport, and the fields will reach your system in advance. At the desk the administrator will only need to match the guest with the original document.
Ask for a photo of the passport before the booking: the document is recognised and checked for forgery, a Russian passport — for validity against the Ministry of Internal Affairs database, the person — against wanted lists. If the guest is a foreigner, the flat owner notifies the Ministry of Internal Affairs of their arrival within seven working days.
Yes: the surname and given name in Latin letters are taken from the machine-readable zone of the travel passport, the validity period is visible at once, the passports of a whole family are uploaded in one session. The destination country's visa requirements are checked by the tour operator themselves.
A document check with anti-fraud — from 16 ₽, an additional document in the same check — 10 ₽, a database check — 5 ₽, there is no subscription fee. Test period — 1 month.
Tell us whose documents you accept — guests, flat owners or tourists — and how many per month. We will put together a check flow and give you test access.
