Do Egyptian citizens need a Russia Tourist Visa?

Yes, if you're from Egypt and planning a trip to Russia, you'll need to secure a Russia Tourist Visa. This visa is a key part of your travel preparations.

To apply for this visa, one essential requirement is obtaining a Russian Letter of Invitation. This document, also known as a tourist voucher or visa support letter, can be issued by the hotel where you plan to stay or by a tour operator in Russia that's officially registered. It acts as your official invitation to explore the country.

Understanding the Russia Business Visa

The Russia Business Visa is meant for individuals heading to Russia for business-related matters like going to meetings, attending conferences, or checking out new business opportunities. However, you can't use this visa for working or looking for jobs in Russia.

When you're getting ready to apply, one key thing you'll need is a Russia Business Invitation Letter. Where this letter comes from can change depending on where you're from, but it's usually from one of these places:

  • The General Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

  • The Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

  • A visa directive from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

  • The Russian company that's inviting you over.
