Two kinds of passports in Ukraine?
« on: November 09, 2021, 09:18:24 AM »
Is there a traveling passport and an internal regular passport? Someone told me this recently - not sure if this is true or not.

Well I learned something new today. There are indeed two. One for travel abroad and one for internal id.

Yes, there certainly are two passports.

At the most innocent level, the internal passport acted somewhat  like our drivers license.  i.e. Just a simple method of identification.

But at a more sinister level, the internal one was how the Soviet system kept control over the population.

For instance, just one example is that the internal one was stamped with the person's assigned place of residence.  Had to get permission to move.

That depends on where one moved.  One could move easily to non closed cities, but it was difficult to move to closed cities.
After the fall of communism, the biggest mistake Boris Yeltsin's regime made was not to disband the KGB altogether. Instead it changed its name to the FSB and, to many observers, morphed into a gangster organisation, eventually headed by master criminal Vladimir Putin. - Gerard Batten

Internal passports also show if you are married, how many children you have until they are adults. Though Ukraine is now switching to more of a ID card instead of a internal passport. For a little while there were 2 kinds of international passports. Biometric and non Biometric, my wife has one of both. One thing my wife did not like was that my ID's and passport did not show my marital status. Fortunately I was truely single when we met.

Yeah there a bit like that over that way aren't they lol. While I understand some married guys go there to discreetly play away I get the impression many of the women kind of have a certain mindset with regards to feelings on some issues such as not being able to verify if a guy is single.
