Questions and Solutions | The e-Visa Program for Russia for Citizens of Chad

Crossing Regional Borders with a Russian Visa

There are four main regions of Russia when considering an e-Visa for entry. When you buy your visa, it will be for a specific region, and you will not be able to use that visa for a different region of Russia. This means you may have to buy more than one visa if you plan to travel around the Russian Federation.

Length of Stay Allowed with a Russian e-Visa

8 days is the limit for being in Russia with an e-Visa. Depending on your circumstances and travel restrictions and your visa policy, it could be a little longer or a little shorter.

The Russia e-Visa Application: Documents & Information Required

For the online application for the Russia e-Visa, you will at minimum, need:

  • Health Insurance Policy - For the length of your stay in Russia, you must prove you have adequate health insurance for emergencies.
  • Passport-Style Photos - Colored photos only, white background, ratio of 3.5 x 4.5
  • Valid Passport - Your passport needs to be valid for a minimum of 6 months from the last day you plan to be in Russia. Have a couple of blank pages for stamping purposes.
  • Letter of Invitation - This can be acquired by speaking to your lodging operator like a hostel or hotel. Or, if you are staying with a Russian citizen, you can get one from them. Lastly, you can try and get one from a Russian tour company that works with the Russian government.

Expiry Date for Russian e-Visas

Find the “Date of Issuance” on the visa and add thirty days. There is a 30-day window to use your e-Visa for Russia once it is issued.

You’ll need to apply at least 4 days in advance of your trip to the Russian Federation

Crimea, Ukraine, and the Russia e-Visa Program

While Crimea is contesting Russia over its independence, Russia legally has dominion over Crimea, so a Russian e-Visa may work if you plan to go there. It is always good to talk to a Russian consulate representative before planning to go to Crimea.

You will need to meet the requirements for Ukraine’s distinct visa program if you plan to go there. Use our Visa Checker Tool to see if you must get a visa for Ukraine.

Entry Limits for the Russia e-Visa

If the visa you get is a “single entry” visa, then you will only be allowed to use it once to enter Russia. After that, you will have to get another visa to reenter Russia.
