FullNameLength   100       public const int EmailLength   100       public const int PhoneLength   40            but my validation works only for Required and RegularExpression and doesn t work for MinLength and MaxLength and I don t get any error message in this case     What can be a reason

This can replace the MaxLength and the MinLength   StringLength 40  MinimumLength   10   ErrorMessage    Password cannot be longer than 40 characters and less than 10 characters

Try using this attribute  for example for password min length    StringLength 100  ErrorMessage                              20            MinimumLength   User PasswordMinLength

MaxLength is used for the Entity Framework to decide how large to make a string value field when it creates the database   From MSDN      Specifies the maximum length of array   or string data allowed in a property    StringLength is a data annotation that will be used for validation of user input   From MSDN      Specifies the minimum and maximum   length of characters that are allowed   in a data field    Non Customized  Use  String Length    RegularExpression      3      ErrorMessage    Minimum 3 characters required     Required ErrorMessage    Required     StringLength 30  MinimumLength   3  ErrorMessage    Maximum 30 characters         30 is the Max Length Minimum length    3   Customized StringLengthAttribute Class  public class MyStringLengthAttribute   StringLengthAttribute       public MyStringLengthAttribute int maximumLength            base maximumLength                   public override bool IsValid object value                string val   Convert ToString value           if  val Length  lt  base MinimumLength              base ErrorMessage    Minimum length should be 3           if  val Length  gt  base MaximumLength              base ErrorMessage    Maximum length should be 6           return base IsValid value            public class MyViewModel        MyStringLength 6  MinimumLength   3       public String MyProperty   get  set
