Readiness calendar: when the document will be back in your hands

Choose the date you apply and the route. The calendar adds up the time each step takes under the regulations, skips weekends and public holidays, and shows the expected readiness date.

How it is worked out

For each step of the route the calendar takes the longest time allowed by the authority's regulations and adds the steps up. The count runs in working days: Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays under Article 112 of the Russian Labour Code and the government decree on transferred days off are skipped. The calendar does not allow for waiting lists for appointments or for delivery between cities: add those in the ‘delivery and contingency’ field.

Public holidays and transferred days off are taken from the official Russian working calendar; the decrees and the articles of the Labour Code it rests on are listed in the sources below.

Work out the route first

The calendar takes its timescales from the route: the document, the region where it was issued and the destination country.
