Excited about exploring Russia? Let's make getting your visa from India as easy as possible.

Applying for a visa can often feel challenging, but we’re on a mission to change that. We make the process clear and simple, so you can shift your attention to the excitement of your upcoming travels to Russia.

Fill me in

We take care of the visa details, so you can focus on planning for memorable experiences in Russia, like exploring Moscow's historic heart, marveling at the Kremlin's might, or experiencing the awe-inspiring Peter and Paul Fortress in Saint Petersburg. These unforgettable experiences begin with a stress-free visa application, courtesy of our help.

Do Indian citizens need a Russia eVisa?

Yes, as an Indian citizen planning to visit Russia's incredible sights and cities, you'll need to get a Russia eVisa.

The eVisa is a bit easier to apply for compared to a traditional Russia Tourist Visa. You won't need to provide an invitation letter, hotel bookings, or any other supporting documents that prove the purpose of your trip to Russia.

Knowing how long you can stay in Russia with this eVisa is key. You're allowed a stay of 16 days Per Entry, but remember, the day you arrive and the day you leave are included in these 16 days. This means you actually have 14 days to explore Russia.

For Indians looking to spend more than 14 days discovering all that Russia has to offer, applying for a Russia Tourist Visa is the way to go.

Understanding the Russia Business Visa

If you're planning to engage in business activities in Russia such as attending meetings, conferences, or exploring new business opportunities, the Russia Business Visa is designed specifically for these purposes. Keep in mind, this visa is not suitable for those intending to work or seek employment in Russia.

A key requirement for the visa application is obtaining a Russia Business Invitation Letter. The source of this letter varies based on your nationality and can be issued by:

  • 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 you're planning to visit.
