Abroad with debts: will they be released or not?

Is it possible to travel abroad with debts - any person who has any debts should check their status before traveling outside Russia. Otherwise, a surprise may be waiting for you right at passport control. Every year, thousands of Russians get a turn from the gate, because they do not know the legislation and did not take care of a carefree vacation in advance. From the article you will learn how to check whether they will be released abroad with debts, whether there is a difference between the debt for housing and utilities and for alimony, and also what amount of debt limits travel abroad.

If you plan to travel abroad with debts, you can check their presence or absence in several ways. I'll tell you about all below, but first, let's figure out which law contains restrictions on traveling abroad on debts.

Leaving abroad with debts, or rather not leaving, is regulated by several laws, including the federal laws "On the procedure for leaving the Russian Federation and entering the Russian Federation" and "On enforcement proceedings". They are written in dry condo language and sometimes it is more difficult to understand them than the language of aliens who flew from the constellation Alpha Centauri. Therefore, I will explain everything on my fingers.

Temporary restriction of the right to travel outside Russia is considered an effective measure and the Federal Bailiff Service (FSPP) successfully applies it, but how exactly such a process is launched, many do not know.

The very fact of a debt, whether it be a loan, traffic fines or alimony, does not automatically make a person restricted to travel abroad. To do this, the amount of debt must exceed a certain threshold, but even after that, a particular citizen may be included in the list of debtors who are prohibited from traveling abroad, only after a few months, or even years.

Most Russians do not know how much debt limits travel abroad. In 2017, its size has changed, and the confusion has grown even more. Although in reality everything is simple.

  1. If we are talking about the recovery of alimony, compensation for harm caused to health or compensation for harm in connection with the death of a breadwinner, then I can restrict a person from leaving Russia if the total debt recognized by the court exceeds 10 thousand rubles.
  2. For all other requirements (debts for utilities, bank loans, loans from microfinance organizations, traffic police fines, etc.), the amount of debt at which exit from the country can be closed is from 30 thousand rubles.

The statistics of bailiffs says that most often decisions to ban travel are made against Russians who are in debt.

  • To the bank for a loan.
  • MFO for a loan.
  • The state on fines about the traffic police.
  • Management companies for utilities.
  • Ex-wife / husband with child for alimony.
  • To the state for taxes.

Any of the above categories of debtors does not automatically become restricted to travel abroad, even if the amount of his debt exceeds 30 thousand rubles. Temporary restrictions on traveling abroad do not always arise even after a court decision has been issued. There are also nuances here. For example, arising arrears of fines from the traffic police do not concern ships in any way, they are immediately transferred to the FSSP. But in most cases, the process goes like this.

  1. A debt case comes to the court.
  2. The court makes a decision on enforcement.
  3. This decision is sent to the bailiffs, who must collect the debt using various measures of influence on the debtors, including making a decision to restrict travel abroad.

How quickly travel restrictions are introduced

Restrictions on traveling abroad on debts are not automatically introduced, therefore, in each individual case, the term for introducing such a restriction may be different. Further, using specific examples, we will analyze the situation with debts on loans, fines, alimony, utility bills, and so on.

Departure abroad with housing and communal services debts

Utility debt and travel abroad have nothing to do with each other. Some Russians do not pay receipts for housing and communal services for months and calmly travel the world. So going abroad with communal debts is quite possible, unless the house management company or the homeowners' association of your house has decided to obtain debt collection through the court.

Practice shows that public utilities go to court only if they have large debts. The very fact of the trial is also not a reason for introducing a temporary restriction on travel abroad. Only after a court decision on enforcement has been made, the bailiff service will be able to open enforcement proceedings, within which it is possible to use restrictive measures.

Where to check the debt on housing and communal services and whether they will be released abroad with it in the presence of enforcement proceedings? If it is less than 30,000 rubles, then no one has the right to restrict you from leaving. But it is quite difficult to check the presence of debt on utility bills. More precisely, you yourself know him very well if you receive receipts and do not pay for them. In case the house management company goes to court, you should receive a corresponding notification. If the court made a decision, the nevylet.rf service will help you to find out about it. There you can get all the relevant data at the time of the request. Not only on court decisions, but also on traffic fines, credit arrears, and so on.

Traveling abroad with child support debt

Is it possible to travel abroad with child support debts? It is definitely possible if the debt on them is less than 10,000 rubles. In other cases, there is a high risk of becoming temporarily restricted to travel abroad. Alimony litigation is usually resolved rather quickly, and bailiffs make travel restrictions even faster. Therefore, if you ask whether alimony workers who do not pay are released abroad, I will answer that with reluctance, the alimony debt is one of the most problematic.

Will they be allowed to go abroad with a loan

Surprisingly, there are Russians who ask more knowledgeable people on the Internet whether they will be released abroad if they have a loan. There is only one answer: 1000 times "Yes". Even if you have 10 loans, but you regularly pay for them, you can safely go to any country - the border guards will not grab your hand, shake your finger and turn back for a loan.

Another thing is when debtors who are going on vacation are interested in whether they are letting out abroad with unpaid loans. It is important to understand what the people who ask the question understand by the phrase "unpaid loan". If it's just the very fact of having a loan, then see the paragraph above. If you have a loan debt, then whether you will be released abroad or not will depend on the stage at which your relationship with the bank is. But I emphasize once again that without a court decision and open enforcement proceedings, neither the collectors, nor the representatives of the bank's security service have the right to restrict your exit from Russia.

The presence of debt on a loan and the recognition of this debt by the court significantly reduces your chances of going abroad. Again, if the loan debt is less than 30,000 rubles, even the bailiffs on duty at the airport will not be able to stop you.

Therefore, to the question "Will they be released abroad if there is a loan?"

And it doesn't matter what type of loan you have a debt for. It can be a consumer loan, mortgage debt, or credit card debt. Without FSSP enforcement proceedings or with a loan debt of less than 30,000 rubles, all Russian airports are open to you.

Abroad with debts for fines

Are the traffic police released abroad with fines? Catching a fine from traffic cops in our time is easier than ever. There are so many cameras of video recording and violations that you only have time to receive "letters of happiness." Of course, someone will say, observe the traffic rules and sleep well. But situations are different and sometimes the commission of a minor offense simply cannot be avoided. On the other hand, if you have a threshold of 30,000 rubles, you have to be a very persistent traffic offender in order to be included in the travel ban list.

Perhaps you consider yourself one of these, and you are planning to travel abroad with debts? You can check all unpaid traffic fines in different ways, including through the portal of public services, but the Nevylet.rf service will help to identify all your debts at once. Since the data on federal sites is up to date for 2 weeks, and on the Nevylet.rf service the data is up-to-date on the day of the request.

You must remember that 60 days are given to pay administrative fines, including traffic fines. Two months after the fine is issued, the debt, bypassing the court, is transferred to the FSSP. This is bad for the debtor, but there is also a positive point. Bailiffs cannot restrict a citizen who has unpaid administrative fines from leaving the country. The need to establish such a prohibition is established by the court, where the FSSP employees must apply.

How and where to find out about the ban on traveling abroad

Will they be released abroad? How to check? Where to see? This question is asked by everyone who feels the potential to be on the restricted travel list, even temporarily. There are several options for checking the presence of debts, which may become the reason for the imposition of travel restrictions. I'll tell you about all of them, their pros and cons.

Site of the federal bailiff service

The FSSP website is located at fssprus.ru and immediately on the main page invites you to find out about your debts. It is enough to enter the last name and first name or number of the individual entrepreneur and also indicate the territorial authority (your region). Then the system will ask you to enter a letter code and display the search results.

Your personal data may coincide with the personal data of another debtor, therefore, to clarify, use the advanced search, indicating the middle name and date of birth.

The system shows enforcement proceedings that have been opened against a citizen over the past few years. Including those already closed. There is an opportunity to pay the debt, but note that a commission is taken.

The FSSP website explains: "The record in the Data Bank will be deleted or changed (in case of partial repayment of the debt) within 3 - 7 days from the date of payment, since the funds must go to the deposit account of the bailiffs department, distributed, transferred to the claimant."

Government services website

If you are registered on the website of public services, then you can check the availability of debt here. The site shows debts not only for the bank of enforcement proceedings, but also for other bases: traffic police fines, tax arrears, legal arrears.

You need to search in the appropriate sections of the catalog of public services (in the screenshot below, I noted where to click). Traffic fines are searched for in the "Transport and Driving" section, tax debts in the "Taxes and Finance" section, legal debts in the "Security and Law and Order" section.

I will not give instructions on how to find debts on the website of state services, since everything is quite simple and understandable there. If you still have questions, ask them in the comments.

The main advantage of the above two sites is that the check is absolutely free. The main disadvantage is that the information can be outdated, and the data update delay can be up to two weeks. That is, it is quite possible that the database on the FSPP website will show the absence of enforcement proceedings, and at the border they will tell you the opposite. And prove to the border guards that "I am not me and the fur coat is not mine."

Service Nevylet.rf

The Nevylet.rf service was created for the same purpose. You will be able to assess the possibility of going abroad with debts and check the availability of debt by:

  • Loans.
  • Taxes (transport, land, property, etc.).
  • Bailiffs.
  • Alimony.
  • Traffic police.
  • Administrative fines.
