What is a Russian visa?

Foreign nationals arriving to Russia, with some exceptions, must have a valid Russian visa. Visa to Russia can not be obtained at the border and issued by Russian embassy or consulate only.

A visa to the Russian Federation is a document permitting a stay in Russia for a specific period of time. Any Russian visa contains information about the period of its validity, entry and exit dates, your vital information, passport details, and other information necessary for official use.

Remember that Russian visa is an exit permit just like it is an entry permit: if you lose it or stay longer than your originally stated departure date, leaving Russia could be more troublesome than entering it.

Russian entry visas can be obtained at local Russian Embassy or Consulate, however official authorization (an invitation (Priglashenie), tourist voucher, confirmation, etc.) from either the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation (FMS), or an alternative specially authorized agency is required before you are able to apply for your visa.

Once all the documents are submitted the Russian Embassies or Consulates make the final decisions about issuing a Russian visa. 

PLEASE NOTE: Our company provides a professional services to obtain official authorization (visa invitation, tourist voucher and confirmation, company letter) of your person only and can`t affect on decisions of the Russian consulates.

All Russian visas must be registered with the local branch of the Federal Migration Service of the Russian Federation within 7 business days upon arrival on the territory of the Russian Federation. The registration of the multi-entry visa may be provided for a period nor exceeding 3 months. For renewal of registration it is necessary to leave Russia and enter it again.
