First, when a disability group is assigned, a person experiences stress due to a change in social status. But then comes an understanding of this need and the realization that there are certain advantages. Whether your illness is obvious or not, no one will be able to provide you with benefits for basic transport travel, visiting a cultural event, etc. without a disability certificate. People with certain ailments, having a special document, can save a lot. Unfortunately, the world is structured in such a way that without confirmation of the disease you will not be able to enjoy preferential conditions.
But what to do if the document is lost, personal data has changed or damage has occurred. How to restore a disability certificate?
What to do if your disability certificate is lost
To restore the certificate, you will need to contact the medical and social examination department (MSE). If a disabled person cannot do this on his own, his representative (guardian) can submit an appeal.
The following step-by-step instructions will show how a citizen can obtain a duplicate if a disability certificate is lost:
- preparation of a written request for a duplicate;
- submitting a petition to the ITU;
- obtaining a certificate from the department of the medical expert commission.
After making sure that the certificate of assignment of a disability group has been lost, the citizen should write an application addressed to a representative of the ITU regional office. The application must contain information about where and by whom it was issued, and the circumstances of its loss. It is important to indicate your disability group (I, II or III), as well as the reason and duration. This will help in searching for documentation in the archive.
- In the event that relatives of a deceased disabled person who are entitled to receive compensation or other benefits apply for a duplicate, documents confirming the relationship should be attached (copy of birth certificate, marriage certificate, etc.)
The application and accompanying documents are submitted at the place of residence of the disabled person, after which the deadline for receiving a duplicate is specified. They may differ depending on the region of residence, but cannot exceed 1 month from the date of application. A copy of the disabled person’s certificate is issued again on the basis of the previous medical examination report.
The procedure for restoring a duplicate includes:
- drawing up an inspection report based on the results of the previous commission;
- making a record of the issuance of a duplicate to replace the lost one;
- registration of the protocol.
The actions of a citizen who has a disability, but has lost the corresponding disability certificate, are regulated by paragraph 119 of the Administrative Regulations dated January 29, 2014 and paragraph 9 of the Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated November 24, 2010.
How to get a duplicate certificate
An indefinite duplicate of a disability certificate is issued on a special pink form of the appropriate sample and contains data on social benefits (conclusion on work ability, features of working conditions).
To do this, use the “Additional conclusions” field. In the upper right corner, be sure to write “Duplicate”; under the date of issue, write “Date of issue of duplicate” and put the real date of receipt of the copy.
To obtain such a copy, you must provide the following documents to the ITU body:
- application for loss of disability certificate;
- passport;
- if possible, a photocopy of a certificate from the pension file.
In cases such as damage to a disability certificate or a change of surname, it can be restored according to the same algorithm. A certificate that has lost its proper form is attached to the application. A corresponding record of cancellation is placed on it, the information is entered into the database and the damaged original, which has become invalid, is confiscated from the owner.
When changing your surname, issuing a duplicate is possible provided that the medical and social examination institution’s database contains the act of carrying out the procedure on the basis of which the certificate was previously issued. If the information has been lost, issuing a duplicate in a new name is impossible.
- A duplicate can be issued by court decision; for this, a citizen recognized as disabled files a claim with the appropriate authority.
Conclusion
A duplicate certificate of recognition of a citizen as disabled can be obtained legally; for this you need to collect the necessary documents and submit an application to the medical and social examination institution.
Within a month, a confirming document will be issued and the person who has received a disability will be able to use all social benefits and guarantees on its basis.
The main condition for the successful execution of a duplicate is compliance with the deadlines for filing the application: an application submitted immediately after the loss of the certificate is processed faster, as this makes it easier to search for information in the archives.
Preparation of the relevant application
When a citizen is convinced that the certificate is lost, he must write a statement to the medical and social examination agency, which previously issued the document.
The application must contain information about the place of issue, circumstances of loss, disability group, reason and period. Based on this data, specialists will be able to find the necessary documents in the archive.
If the relatives of a deceased disabled person who have the right to receive benefits and various compensations for him want to return the certificate, they must attach documents to the application to confirm the relationship. These can be copies of a birth certificate, marriage certificate, and others.
The application with accompanying documentation should be submitted to the place of residence of the disabled person, after which the deadline for returning the duplicate will be determined.
In the regions of residence, the period for document restoration lasts differently, but cannot exceed a month from the date of receipt of the application.
A copy of the report may be reissued based on the results of the previous medical commission.
If the institution has not saved the act confirming the existence of grounds for assigning a disability group, you can obtain an extract from its copy, which should be kept in the regional office of the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.
The entire restoration process, if you happen to lose a certificate, consists of drawing up an examination report taking into account the results of the examination, making entries about the issuance of a duplicate instead of the lost one, and drawing up a protocol.
All actions of citizens who have been assigned a disability group and issued a corresponding certificate are regulated by clause 119 of the Administrative Regulations dated January 29, 2014.
The ITU Bureau should not order re-examination of a disabled person on the basis of issuing a duplicate certificate. To do this, use the previous medical examination report. A new certificate is issued without additional medical examinations.

First, when a disability group is assigned, a person experiences stress due to a change in social status. But then comes an understanding of this need and the realization that there are certain advantages.
Whether your illness is obvious or not, no one will be able to provide you with benefits for basic transport travel, visiting a cultural event, etc. without a disability certificate. People with certain ailments, having a special document, can save a lot.
Unfortunately, the world is structured in such a way that without confirmation of the disease you will not be able to enjoy preferential conditions.
But what to do if the document is lost, personal data has changed or damage has occurred. How to restore a disability certificate?
Damage to certificate
To get a duplicate if damaged, you should collect certain documents:
- provide a damaged certificate;
- passport;
- write a statement indicating why the document was damaged.
In the application you must write where the certificate was received previously
Loss of a document
Group 2 disabled person's certificate
If you lose your pink permanent certificate, you should prepare:
- passport;
- a statement written to the ITU management, indicating a request for a duplicate;
- write in the application why the document was lost.
A photocopy of a certified document may be required, which should be taken from the Pension Fund.
Changing personal data
If a citizen has changed his first name, patronymic, or last name, then a statement is written (possibly by a legal representative), and a new document must be issued based on the inspection report.
If the ITU Bureau has not saved this act, then the options are as follows:
- the disabled person continues to use the certificate issued earlier, and if necessary, he confirms its validity with a marriage certificate (which reflects the fact of a change in data);
- in order to restore the disability, or rather, its fact, it may be necessary to go to court, and based on the decision of the ITU bureau, a new document will be required to be issued.
The duplicate must be made on a special form (established sample) that was valid at the time it was issued. On the form on the right, at the top it must be written: “Duplicate”. Below is written: “Duplicate issued.” Enter the date, month, and year of issue.
It is important to clarify that if the certificate is damaged, lost or the data is changed, it is simply issued. No one will review the terms of disability or the group.
The time frame for receiving a completed duplicate should be clarified with the ITU Bureau.
There is an alternative: in special cases you can go to a private clinic, but this is rather an exception to the rule and a paid service, although it is consistent with the law. But if urgent recovery is required, this will help save time and nerves.

How to obtain a duplicate of a disability certificate in case of loss (damage)
In case of loss (damage) of the issued certificate (extract), federal state institutions of medical and social examination (MSE) at the place of residence of the disabled person (in the absence of a place of residence - at the place of stay, actual residence, at the location of the pension file of the disabled person who left for permanent residence abroad) borders of the Russian Federation) issue a duplicate of a certificate upon application of a disabled person (his legal representative), a family member of a deceased (deceased) disabled person (his legal representative) in cases where the legislation of the Russian Federation provides for the provision of social support measures to the family of the deceased (hereinafter referred to as a family member), a duplicate extracts at the request of the body providing pensions.

A duplicate certificate (duplicate extract) is issued on the basis of the inspection report in accordance with which the lost (damaged) certificate (extract) was issued.
In this case, a new certificate of examination is drawn up at the federal state institution of medical and social examination without additional examination of the disabled person, in which a record is made of the issuance of a duplicate certificate (duplicate extract), in replacement of the lost (damaged) certificate (extract), and a protocol is drawn up.
A damaged certificate (extract) is canceled by crossing it out and adding the inscription “cancelled” and filed in the citizen’s inspection report.
In case of loss of the inspection report, in accordance with which the lost (damaged) certificate was issued, its duplicate is issued on the basis of a copy of the extract, the original of which is stored in the body providing pensions. The specified copy of the extract is issued by the body providing pensions at the request of the federal state institution of medical and social examination.
A duplicate certificate is issued on a certificate form (a duplicate extract - on an extract form) of the established form, valid for the period of issuance of the duplicate certificate (duplicate extract).
In the upper right corner of the certificate (extract) form, on which the corresponding duplicate is drawn up, the entry “Duplicate” is made, below the line “Date of issue of the certificate” “(“Date of issue of the extract”)” the entry “Duplicate issued” is made and the date of issue is indicated duplicate.

Disability certificate: sample certificate of a disabled person, how to obtain or restore
During a medical and social examination (MSE), citizens with health limitations receive an expert opinion and a certificate (pink) about disability, indicating the established group and the time of the new examination. Thus, having obtained a special status, a person is provided with benefits from the state. In this case, the certificate is a legal confirmation of the right to privileges. We’ll talk about this document today.
What is a pink disability certificate?
If a citizen is recognized as disabled after passing the ITU, he will receive a certificate reflecting his new status. With the help of this paper, the beneficiary demonstrates that they are incapacitated (partially or completely).
Appearance of a disabled person's document
Now let's talk about what the certificate looks like. It is drawn up in a special form, established by law; it is a strict reporting form, which means it has a series and number.
The front side of the document contains basic information about the disabled person - his date of birth, registration address, full name. Here is also the date of passing the ITU and information about the expert bureau that issued the certificate. There is also a square stamp.
- The reverse side of the certificate states:
- - the reason for the determination of disability;
- — status — “disabled child” or one of the groups (3, 2, 1) will be indicated;
- - the period of relevance of the status, but if the group is given for life, they write that it is unlimited;
- — the date of the next examination (again, if the disability is not lifelong);
- — additional information and notes.
- In addition, there is the date of the medical examination with the report number and the signature of the chairman.
Why does a disabled person need a certificate?
- As mentioned above, the document in question confirms the special status of its owner and indicates the present restrictions in work and other activities due to health problems or other reasons.
- The certificate indicates the assignment of a disability group, taking into account which in the future, according to legislative acts, the necessary treatment, the amount of the pension and a list of benefits, the opportunity to work and more are determined.
- In any case, in order to realize the preferences due, a citizen with disabilities must attach a photocopy of the certificate and an application during their registration with the competent authority.
Step-by-step instructions for obtaining a certificate
Since the pink document is issued after the group has been established, you need to start with the recognition of disability. In other words, the potential recipient of the certificate in the first step is required to take a referral to the ITU.
The attending physician will prepare the necessary paper if the patient’s condition meets certain criteria (the person must fall under the category of disabled). You can also request a referral from the head physician (if your doctor wrongfully refused). Similar requests are also considered by social insurance and the Pension Fund. You can apply to the fund if you have a confirmed work-related injury.
By the way, before the examination, depending on the condition, tests, additional medical consultations, etc. may be necessary. In general, the more evidence of health problems can be prepared, the higher the chance of receiving a disability.
Important
! A citizen has the right to contact the ITU bureau directly, but to do this he will have to receive a certificate stating that a referral was refused at a hospital or other institution.
Collection of necessary documents
- In addition to being referred for examination, an applicant for the group may need:
- — passport (copy and original);
- — SNILS;
- — application (form 088/у-06);
- - characteristics from the place of study (for pupils, students);
- — certificate about the nature and conditions of work (for workers);
- — a copy of the work record book (it must be certified and can be done by a personnel employee);
- — doctors’ reports in the original form and in copies to confirm the diagnosis, injury, etc.;
- — a previously submitted ITU conclusion, if the survey is not taking place for the first time.
Passing the commission
If everything is done correctly, the documents will be forwarded to the ITU territorial office, and members of the expert commission (usually 3 people) will consider the case within 30 days, starting from the moment the request is submitted.
In addition to the doctors, the applicant is present at the meeting. Plus, other specialists can be involved in the process at the request of the subject or one of the experts present in order to get the most complete picture and not make a mistake in the final decision. In general, within the framework of the ITU, a citizen with disabilities is examined, asked, etc.
Important
! Since 2021, certain categories of persons, according to the approved list, have the right to receive a disability group in absentia. This privilege also applies to citizens living in hard-to-reach areas. In these cases, the case is considered on the basis of the documentation presented.
Obtaining a certificate, sick leave and certificate
- At the end of the MSA, specialists issue a certificate and an extract from the report to the person with disabilities.
It contains information regarding the disabled person, namely: - — passport data;
- — existing education;
- — paragraphs about work;
- — current living conditions;
- — degree of health limitations and prospects for recovery;
- — psychological state, whether the person being examined copes with the illness, its consequences, etc.
Important
! The sick leave can be extended at the clinic that sent you for examination. The ITU Bureau does not deal with this, although the sick leave notes indicate the date of the medical examination and the assigned disability group.
Is it possible to pass the commission without registration?
According to the law, MSA can take place not only where the subject has a residence permit, but also at the place of residence (if there is temporary registration) or the location of the pension file. That is, a citizen must obtain registration in another city for the duration of his stay here without deregistration at his place of registration.
But this rule does not apply to persons located in a populated area, if it is in the subject of registration. In other words, temporary registration is not required when moving from Moscow to the Moscow region (and vice versa), from St. Petersburg to the Leningrad region (and vice versa). Also on the list of exceptions are Crimea and Sevastopol.
What to do if a person is unable to pass the commission on his own?
As a rule, collecting documents and personally visiting the ITU office is difficult for bedridden patients, but other citizens with disabilities cope with this task quite successfully.
Be that as it may, in difficult cases, his representative can act for the beneficiary on the basis of a notarized power of attorney.
After all the formalities have been completed, the medical examination will take place by the experts going home or to the hospital (if the patient is transferred to a medical institution).
How to make a copy of the certificate?
For example, when applying for employment, a disabled employee may be asked for a copy of a disability certificate.
In this or any other case, the citizen needs to bring the original certificate to the organization so that a copy of it can be made personally by a personnel specialist. He returns the original and certifies the copy with a signature and a blue seal.
In addition, there is a second way - contact a notary, who will perform a similar procedure, but for money.
How to check the authenticity of a document?
When the authenticity of the provided certificate of special status is in doubt (for example, by the employer), it is possible to check the document. To do this, just contact the Pension Fund, Social Security or any medical service.
organization and inform those present at the certificate of the number with the series. The bearer of a genuine certificate by name must be found in the federal register of disabled people.
There is no other possibility, since the database with data on citizens with disabilities is closed.
How to restore a lost certificate?
A lost document may be replaced with a duplicate.
The process of restoring the certificate is not complicated and involves contacting the ITU bureau at the location of the pension case or residence (the authorized representative of the disabled person or he himself has the right to make a request).
Here an application for the issuance of a duplicate is written, mentioning in the document the circumstances of the loss of the certificate and where it was originally issued. The recovery period is determined by the bureau.
Important
! The new certificate will bear the inscription “Duplicate”, and the basis for issuance is the primary inspection report (there is no need to go through the ITU again).
Is there a certificate of non-disability?
As experts note, obtaining a document certifying the absence of special status is inherently meaningless. For example, if a man has been assigned a disability group, a corresponding notification will be sent from the ITU bureau to the military registration and enlistment office. On top of that, in order to document the absence of health restrictions, you will have to undergo a full examination again and collect documents.
Without a re-examination, the ITU commission will not know about the current state of health of the citizen. In this case, you can only count on a certificate stating that the disabled person did not apply to the bureau for the purpose of passing the commission.
Last news
Mikhail Mishustin signed Resolution No. 114 of February 10, 2020 “On amendments to certain acts of the Government of the Russian Federation regarding the provision of information about disability.”
According to this document, as of July 1, 2021, some paragraphs of the decrees of 2001, 2004 and 2015 regulating the submission of information about disability have lost their force.
In the new document, thanks to the improvement of the division of powers in the field of social support, for citizens exposed to radiation as a result of accidents at nuclear power plants and other radiation hazard sites, there is no need to again obtain relevant certificates when applying to various authorities for government services. All document flow, according to the unified register of disabled people, will be carried out through a system of electronic interaction between departments.
If they delay registering disability
Photo by Oleg Kuzmin “I’ve never been a whiner or a snitch, but now I’m fed up with everything. In December 2021, I had surgery at the Krasnoyarsk Oncology Center. Bow and gratitude to surgeon Andrei Viktorovich Mazaev and his team. I thank Rimma Aleksandrovna Grechishkina, the head of the polyclinic of the Karatuz District Hospital, who guided me until the operation and supported me morally. And then the unimaginable began. At the beginning of February, I collected all the documents for approval of the disability group. They lay motionless with the therapist for three weeks, then with the oncologist for more than a month. There was no way we could get to the commission in Kuragino. Now, during my weekly visits, the oncologist yells, jumping up from the table, and the deputy head physician Goryacheva comes up with various excuses. Three months have passed, and the cart is still there. How long will this outrage continue? Sincerely, Zhukova, Karatuz district.”
The situation described by our reader is truly absurd. After all, after cancer surgery, special treatment is required. And disability helps here. A patient with a disability receives a monthly allowance and discounted medications.
We asked the Ministry of Health of the Krasnoyarsk Territory to understand the situation. The department made a request to the district hospital and found out that there was indeed a delay in registering disability for the woman who had undergone surgery.
The medical institution sent the necessary documentation, the regional Ministry of Health responded to the NCC. – At the moment, the patient’s disability is registered.
As they say in the Ministry of Health, the list of indications for registration of disability due to cancer is within the competence of the bureau of medical and social examination.
Sometimes doctors at the clinic tell the patient that he is not entitled to disability, but this is not always true. The attending physician must refer the patient for a medical and social examination if the patient has lost the ability to work after surgery, is receiving chemotherapy or hormonal therapy, the prognosis of treatment is unclear, if metastases have appeared or a relapse has begun.
The law formulates three conditions that must be met in order to recognize a person as disabled: there is a disease - a health disorder with a persistent disorder of body functions; as a result of the disease, the patient’s life activity is limited (the person is completely or partially unable to care for himself, move, work, etc.); there is a need for social protection measures (we need rehabilitation, benefits when purchasing medicines, and so on).
To obtain disability, the patient must write an application addressed to the chairman of the medical commission of the medical institution with a request to be referred for a medical and social examination.
And if they refuse, request a document confirming the refusal and, with this certificate, contact the territorial bureau of medical and social examination yourself.
