Olyshka can help you obtain a Russian tourist visa or Russian business visa for your trip to Russia.
The Embassies of Russia and Russian Consulates require that all foreign travelers to Russia have a Russian visa invitation in order to issue the applicant a Russian visa. Express to Russia can quickly and professionally issue this invitation for both tourist and business visas. We first issue the invitation (sometimes called a voucher) and then email it, fax it or mail it to you. Customers ordering Russian visa support will be responsible for paying the Russian Consular fees themselves and the logistics involved in getting their passports to and from the Russian Consulate.
Business visas can only be applied for within 45 days of the applicant's planned entry into Russia
*This is for a paper invitation that must be mailed to you. Postage is not included and is extra. Express postage is charged at market rates.
For business visa support, please fax a copy of the first page of your passport to +7 812 233 0900 or scan a copy and email to spb@olyshka.ru
All business visas listed except where indicated are sent by telex to the Russian Consulate where you will pick it up.
POST DELIVERY OF THE VISA INVITATION IS NOT INCLUDED AND THE CHARGE WILL BE BETWEEN 10 EURO AND 80 EURO
New visa regulations
1. A foreign citizen can obtain a visa to Russia ONLY in the country of his/her citizenship. Exceptions include those who have a residence permit for a foreign country for the period more than 90 days.
A visa may also be issued in a country other than an applicant's own in case of urgent necessity, such as participating in international, governmental, official, scientific, sport and cultural events. A final decision in these cases would be left up to the consulate.
2. A multiple entry business visa allows nationals of all countries to stay in Russia up to 90 days out of the period of 180 days.
After you have received your invitation (voucher), you are required to bring or send a copy of it along with the other documents listed below to the Russian Consulate in your country.
Before sending in your documentation to the Russian Consulate, we suggest that you call them first or check their Internet site to receive information concerning the processing in your specific country. Some Embassies and Consulates require the original visa invitation instead of a copy. This is almost always the case for business visas.
If you require the original invitation, please tell us and we will express post it to you. Express postage is extra.
Visa registration
Russian law requires that travelers register their visas if they are staying in Russia more than 3 business days. If travelers are staying in Russia more than 3 business days they should apply for registration immediately upon arrival (on the same day). Travelers who do not have their visas registered are required to pay fines when they attempt to exit Russia or if they are stopped by the police..
If you are staying at a hotel, the hotel will register your visa.
If you are staying at an apartment you will have to apply to a local migration department (OVIR) to have your visa registered.
Olyshka is also available to answer all of your questions regarding Russian visa invitations. Please contact us.
