Persons without permanent and temporary residences must declare information on their residence with the registration authority of the locality where their current residence is located.

2. Registration authorities shall provide instructions on residence information declaration based on the information fields in the national population database and residence database.

3. In case the person provided for in Clause 1 herein does not have their information recorded in the national population database and/or residence database, within 30 days starting from the date of receipt of declared information, the registration authority shall verify the information; for complicated cases, this time limit may be extended up to a total of 60 days.
