>> A special letter from a travel agent is NOT required by the Russian consulates if you get your invitation through this site (it would be needed only if you obtained your visa support documents from a travel agency in your country).

>> The travel itinerary is listed in the invitation voucher, so you don't require an additional paper.

Instead, based on the information you provide in the form below, we forward your request to the most suitable company, and they process your order directly. We choose the company depending on which type of visa support you choose, which country you're applying in, etc. saving your time having to research this information on your own.

Order Process:

Step 1: After you submit the form, you will be asked to pay online (Visa, MC, AmEx, Diners are accepted) or with a bank transfer, cash, or credit card over the phone or fax.

Step 2: Your application is processed by our partner company, which has a reference number and is registered and licensed by the Federal Migration Service (UFMS).
This ensures that you will not have any problems with your application at the consulate and Russian immigration control.

Step 3: The visa support documents will be sent to you by e-mail or fax and you will be provided your own unique order reference number and a personal manager in case you have any questions about your order.

Step 4: Once in Russia, the visa registration will be provided by the hotel(s) you stay in (usually for free). If you stay in a private apartment or with friends, they can register you at any post office or police station (the fee is about $5).

Russian Visa FAQ

Q: I want to travel for longer than 1 month or need multiple-entry visa.
A: Then you can apply for a business visa (you don't need to be in a business to get it).

Q: Do I need to reserve hotels in order to get a visa?
A: No. In fact, once you get this invitation, the hotel is reserved for you, but you don't have to stay there (that's why you pay $30 US – for the reservation).

Q: Can I enter Russia after the date my visa starts?
A: Yes. The dates you specify is simply the time span during which you have to enter and leave Russia. You don't have to travel on these dates.

Q: How long before my travel dates can I apply for the invitation and the Russian visa itself?

A: You can get tourist visa support from most travel agencies at any moment, however, you can apply for a tourist visa at a Russian consulate not earlier than 90 days before your requested visa validity start date. So, if you're going on a long travel it's better to get the invitation now, and then apply when it's less than 90 days before your trip to Russia.

Q: Can the visa be extended?
A: No, it's so complicated and expensive there's no point. If you're not sure when you want to leave, just put your visa end date a few days later in this application. Make sure though that it's not longer than 30 days (14 days to be sure you get your visa without any problems)

Q: Can I travel where I want?
A: Yes, as long as it's not some secret military base. And you can stay as long as you wish in each city as well.

Q: How to make sure I get the visa at the consulate?
A: The main rule is to provide the information that is consistent to this visa support letter you're requesting here. So for example if you are getting a tourist visa support you should specify the purpose of your visit "tourism" and not "visiting friends".

Q: Do I need an insurance to get a visa?
A: UK - no, USA, EU (Schengen countries) - yes. Your credit card insurance might be enough in most cases.

Q: Do I need a flight to be booked in order to get a tourist visa?
A: No. You can book it after you get the visa.

Q: Do I need originals of the invitation?
A: No: fax or a scanned copy (sent to you by e-mail) is usually enough. Only the consulates in Sweden and Switzerland may require originals.

Q: Is this service legal and reliable?
A: Yes, 100%. Thousands customers get their visa support through Way to Russia. We are recommended by Lonely Planet, BBC, Rough Guides, and the leading national newspapers in UK, USA, Australia. You can see our Russian Visa forum - there are lots of reports from satisfied customers.

Q: How come you didn't answer all my questions?
A: Sorry about that. Most likely there's an answer at our Concise Step-by-Step guide or Russian Visa guide. If not, just post your question at our Russian Visa forum (best) or contact us directly on Skype (mrrussia) or Facebook (Way to Russia) – and you'll get an answer very quickly.
