General information about Russian tourist visa
Russian tourist visa is a document which allows foreign nationals to travel to Russia as tourists. Russian tourist visas are offered as- single entry - visiting Russia only once during a period of up to 90 days or
- double entry - for two entries within a period of up to 90 days
- multiple entry - multiple entries for a period of up to 180 days
A standard single tourist visa is best when you know exactly where and how long you will be staying in Russia and you plan to stay in the country not more than 30 days. Otherweise please apply for a multiple entry tourist visa or a business visa to Russia.
Travelling to Crimea
If you are planning to visit Crimea, you will need to have a valid Russian visa. If you are going to Crimea as a tourist, a standard Russian tourist visa will be sufficient. Most likely you will be travelling to Crimea by air via Moscow. This is not counted as a double entry as you are not leaving the Russian territory. We will issue all required paperwork for your visa.Our prices versus DIY
We guarantee the lowest price for our visa service as we have been dealing with Russian visas for over 10 years now and have high volume operations. We also include a tourist voucher – a required document to get your visa – free of charge with our visa service.You can obviously do your Russian visa yourself and pay £102 to the consulate (standard processing), however on top you will need to purchase a tourist voucher (standard price £20) or spend some time trying to get it from your hotel. And then not being sure at all that your application paperwork is properly completed. Effectively you will be paying us ONLY £50 on top of the consular charge – a fair price for removing any unnecessary stress and a potential second visit to the visa centre.
