Nominees from non-parliamentary political parties — Sergei Malinkovich, Boris Nadezhdin, Andrei Bogdanov, Sergei Baburin, Irina Sviridova — must submit at least 100 thousand by January 31. Self-nominated candidates — Vladimir Putin, the Russian Rada, Anatoly Batashev — need to collect at least 300 thousand signatures.
The Central Election Commission must make a decision on the registration of all candidates no later than February 10.
