Passport book
An unfilled indefinite passport book of the beginning of the XX century.
In the Russian Empire, the main function of a passport was to allow travel outside the immediate vicinity of the place of permanent residence. The passport also determined a person's identity, social status, religion, and described their appearance.
A new step towards passport progress was the "Passport Statute" adopted in 1895. According to it, nobles, officers, merchants, retired officials and commoners received an indefinite passport book, close to the modern one, indicating their origin, class affiliation, religion and with a mark on registration. Burghers, workers and peasants were given a so-called residence permit for up to five years. Moreover, boys under 17 and girls under 21 could obtain a residence permit only with the permission and request of their parents or guardians, and married women - only with the consent of their husband.
