WARNING! For the execution of the e-service and verification of your data in the national registers to be successful, it is necessary to verify your data in the user profile (profile settings) on the Latvija.gov.lv portal after authentication and to consent to the verification of your data in the national registers by ticking the relevant transmission button and pressing the “Save” button. Sequentially, use this e-service. The service shall ensure the possibility for a person who conforms to the range of persons specified in Section 6, Paragraph one of the Law on Declaration of Place of Residence Law to declare the address of the place of residence in Latvia without payment or to indicate the address of residence in a foreign state, as well as to indicate one additional address in Latvia or a foreign state. The person also has the option to cancel the specified additional address if it is no longer current at the time the e-service is requested. If it is not possible for you (a person of Latvian nationality) to use an e-service, an application for a declaration of residence (address of the place of residence in Latvia) and an application for an additional address in Latvia or a foreign state may be submitted in person to a local government or local government institution in the administrative territory of which the address of the place of residence to be declared is located. If you specify an additional address, the person can also specify the time period during which the person will be reached at the specified additional address. The additional address is not the address of the declared place of residence. The Office of Citizenship and Migration Affairs (PMLP) shall register information regarding the declared place of residence in Latvia, the indicated address in a foreign state or one specified additional address in Latvia or a foreign state to a foreigner, if the foreigner draws up a residence permit in Latvia or the legal status in Latvia is determined for the person. The declaration of residence on the spot is subject to payment of the State fee of EUR 4.27. By post, PMLP may send applications for notification of an address abroad or for the indication of an additional address. A copy of the personal identification document shall be appended to the application by post.
