The article is devoted to the legislative problems of the application of DNA identification methods in the search for missing citizens, the identification of citizens who cannot provide information about themselves, unidentified corpses. Currently, the circle of individuals subject to genomic registration is significantly limited, which hinders the use of the «Xenon-2» federal database of genomic registration for these purposes. According to the authors, the inclusion of close relatives of missing persons in this category, along with law enforcement officials, should increase the efficiency of work in this direction.
