The Federal Archival Service of Russia is the legal successor of the archival administrations of the Soviet Union and the RSFSR that existed during the Soviet era.

Decree of June 1, 1918 "On the reorganization and centralization of archives", signed by V.I. Lenin, provided for the creation of the Main Directorate of Archival Affairs (GUAD or Glavarchiv) under the People's Commissariat of Education of the RSFSR - the first body in the history of Russia to manage centralized archival affairs. Its main function was to manage the so-called. The Unified State Archival Fund (EGAF), the formation and implementation of a unified archival policy.

The archives remained under the jurisdiction of the People's Commissariat of Education until November 26, 1921, when a decree was issued by the Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee on the transfer of the GUAD from the People's Commissariat for Education to the jurisdiction of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee. After the adoption of the new Constitution of the RSFSR, the Presidium of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee approved the Regulations on the Central Archive (Central Archive) of the RSFSR (January 30, 1922). Instead of GUAD, the archive system was managed by the Central Archive Department under the All-Russian Central Executive Committee of the RSFSR. His duties included general management, planning and control in the field of archiving on the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as direct management of all Moscow and Petrograd central state archives. The circle of sources for completing state archives was narrowed down to government agencies.

On January 28, 1929, the All-Russian Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the RSFSR approved the regulation on the archival administration of the RSFSR. Archival institutions of the RSFSR became subordinate to the Central Archival Administration of the RSFSR (TsAU RSFSR). It was attached to the All-Russian Central Executive Committee, reporting directly to its Presidium. The TsAU RSFSR was entrusted with the general management of archives in the republic, as well as the direct management of all central state archives of the republic. At the same time, the EGAF was renamed the State Archival Fund (GAF).

In the same year, 1929, changes took place in the organization of archives at the union level. Under the Central Executive Committee of the USSR, the Central Archival Administration of the USSR (TSAU USSR) was created. According to the decree of the Central Executive Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR of April 10, 1929 “On the Central Archival Administration of the USSR”, the Central Archives Administration was created for general management and unification of the activities of the central archival administrations of the Union republics in managing funds of all-Union significance. Since that time, the archives of the Russian Federation began to be distinguished from the so-called. central state archives of all-Union significance.

By 1935, the CAU of the USSR was in charge of five allied archives: the Central Archive of the Red Army (TsAKA), the Military Historical Archive (VIA), the Central Photo and Film Archive (TsFFKA), the Central Archive of the Trade Union Movement (TsAPD), the State Archive foreign policy(GAVP). However, a number of central state archives, which also kept documents of all-Union significance, continued to be under the jurisdiction of the TsAU RSFSR: the Central Archive of the October Revolution (TsAR), the Central Archive of the Revolution (TsAR), the State Archive of the Feudal-Serfdom Era (GAFKE), the Central Survey Archive, the Archive National economy, culture and life, etc. This structure of the management bodies of archives lasted until the adoption of the Constitution of 1936, according to which government bodies were again reorganized and control over the archives by security agencies was strengthened.

The logical conclusion of this process was the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR, adopted in 1938. The state archives of the country were transferred to the jurisdiction of the NKVD of the USSR and, thus, the central and local management bodies of archives lost their independent status. The TsAU of the USSR was transformed into the Main Archive Directorate (GAU) of the NKVD of the USSR. Gradually, the most important sets of documents came under the direct subordination of the latter, which formed a network of central state archives of all-Union significance (TsGAOR, TsGAKA, TsGAVMF, TsGAKFFD, TsGIAL, TsGIAM, TsGVIA and its branch, TsGADA, TsGLA). The funds of the central government institutions of the RSFSR, as well as the network of central and local archives of the RSFSR, were also included in the category of all-Union funds. The NKVD became the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) in 1946, and the name of the archival department changed accordingly - GAU MVD of the USSR. The republican archival administration in the RSFSR was organized anew only in 1955, when the Archives Administration was formed as part of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (since 1960 - GAU RSFSR).

In 1960, when the archival industry was transferred to the jurisdiction of the Council of Ministers of the USSR, the status of the main archival management body was again raised and it became known as the Main Archive Directorate under the Council of Ministers of the USSR (GAU under the Council of Ministers of the USSR or the Main Archive of the USSR). In 1961, the Government approved the Regulations on the Main Archive Administration and the Network of Central State Archives of the USSR. According to this Regulation, the State Agrarian University of the USSR is an all-Union body for the scientific, organizational and methodological management of archival affairs in the country. The Regulation fixed the command-administrative model of industry management that had developed in the previous period. Until 1991, the GAU of the USSR controlled the administrative, financial, scientific, methodological, technical and many other areas of activity of the state archives of the entire Soviet Union.

The Central State Archives of the RSFSR were under the direct jurisdiction of the Main Archive Department under the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR (GAU under the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR), also created in 1960 on the basis of the Archive Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the RSFSR. The Main Archive of the RSFSR managed other state archives through the archival departments (administrations) of the republics, territories and regions.

During the period of determining their sovereignty by the republics of the former. USSR, November 5, 1990 on the basis of the Main Archive of the RSFSR, an administrative body was created - the Committee for Archives under the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR (Roskomarchiv), - responsible for state archives throughout the Russian Federation. After the failure of the coup in August 1991, President B.N. Yeltsin issued a decree on the transfer of all documents of the CPSU and the KGB of the USSR to the jurisdiction of Roskomarchiv. Based on the documents of the Central Committee of the CPSU, two new state archives were created - RTSKHIDNI (the former Central Party Archive) and TsKhSD (the former current archive of the Central Committee of the CPSU). However, the main part of the KGB documentation is still in independent departmental archives.

According to the resolution of the Council of Ministers of the RSFSR of October 12, 1991, the Roskomarchiv received control of the former allied central state archives located on the territory of the RSFSR, previously subordinate to the Main Archive of the USSR, as well as administrative functions, subordinate institutions and research organizations of the latter, its material and technical and financial and economic base within the Russian Federation. The resolution was put into effect only at the beginning of 1992. At the same time, the materials from the archive of the former Politburo of the Central Committee of the CPSU were included integral part in the Archive of the President of the Russian Federation.

In connection with the collapse of the USSR at the end of 1991, since January 1992, the network of state archives in Russia has been reorganized. Administrative and archival functions of Roskomarchiv in relation to the newly formed archives federal level were enshrined in the Government Decree of June 24, 1992. It determined that the Committee for Archives under the Government of the Russian Federation (Roskomarchiv) is a federal body government controlled, which implements the state policy in the field of archiving. This Decree also confirmed the reorganization of the network of state archives at the federal level, which are directly subordinate to Roskomarchiv, and four of them received the definition of "centers", although they functioned as archives.

A presidential decree (signed by B.N. Yeltsin on September 30, 1992) transformed Roskomarchiv into the State Archive Service of Russia (Rosarchiv). The rights and obligations of the new body are enshrined in a government decree of December 22, 1992 and "Fundamentals of the legislation of the Russian Federation on the Archival Fund of the Russian Federation and Archives", adopted in July 1993. "Fundamentals of Legislation" became the first archival law in the history of Russia.

The current status of the state and non-state archives of Russia, the issues of organizing their acquisition, storage, accounting and use of documents were regulated in the “Regulations on the Archival Fund of the Russian Federation”, which was approved by decree of the President of the Russian Federation of March 17, 1994. At the same time, a new “ Regulations on the State Archival Service of Russia” as a body implementing state policy in the field of archiving.

In accordance with the decree of August 14, 1996, the Rosarchive was renamed the Federal Archival Service of Russia. The new ones, published by Rosarkhiv, were registered with the Ministry of Justice at the end of December 1998. They included rules for access, copying documents, as well as working conditions in all Russian archives.

By a new Decree in March 1999, the network of federal archives was again reorganized. It currently consists of fourteen archives, thirteen of which are located in Moscow and St. Petersburg. Russian State Historical Archive Far East() after moving from Tomsk is now based in Vladivostok. Thus, the March decree, firstly, united the former Komsomol archive of the TsKhDMO with the former party archive - RTSKHIDNI. The combined archive was named the Russian State Archive of Socio-Political History (). Secondly, the Center for the Storage of Historical and Documentary Collections - TsKhIDK (until 1992, the Special Archive - TsGOA), created to store trophy documents and which was secret until 1991, was merged with. At the same time, the Center for the Storage of Modern Documents (TSKhSD) was renamed the Russian State Archives recent history ().

Decree of the President of the Russian Federation "On the system and structure of federal executive bodies" dated 09.03.04. No. 314 The Federal Archival Service of Russia was transformed into the Federal Archival Agency.
