Getting Started

Before arranging a trip to Russia, citizens of most of the countries need to apply for a Russian tourist visa or Russian business visa. You will need to provide your entrance and exit dates, your name, passport details, and your reason for travel. Please note that your Russian visa is both an entry and exit permit; if you lose it or stay past your designated departure date, leaving the country could be more troublesome than entering it.

Please provide the following documents

  • A valid passport
    Note Passport should be valid for at least 6 months after the visa expiration date. You will need to have at least two blank Visa pages in your passport.

  • Application form
    Filled out application form https://visa.kdmid.ru with application ID number and password. If you are having difficulty completing the application, we can do the job. However, there will be a $25 fee for us to re-type and register your application.
    Note Each applicant must submit a separate form

  • Photos
    Two passport size photos (2” x 2”) – for single/double/multi-entry visa. The photo should be new or taken within the last six months.
