I Registering With The Police Required?
I am sure this is posted somewhere but I was unable to find the post.............I will be in Moscow for five days and St. Petersburg for five days for a total of 10 days.
Do I have to register with the police upon arrival? Do I have to register in both cities?

You can't register yourself. It is the responsibility of your host. Are you staying in a hotel? Most hotels will automatically do this without fee. If you are staying in a hostel, they may not do this automoatically; you may have to ask and they may pass along fees.Registration should occur within 24 hours in a hotel. Registration is required if you are in the country for for more than 7 business days and/or if you are in any one location more than 7 business days.

I was in Russia for 28 days, my longest stay in any city was 5 days. I did not register anywhere and I am not aware of anyone registering for me. (I stayed in hostels) I had no problems and no one questioned me when I left the country
