I've read than you need visa registration when staying for longer than three business days. Does that mean that I dont need visa registration when I'm only staying in Russia for two days? (Just wanted to be sure)

Weekends and russian public holidays do not count. other weekdays count. Arriving late in the evening on a weekday still counts as a day (even if you passed immigration countrol at 23.59hrs). Departing early in the morning on a weekday still counts as a day (even if you passed immigration control at 00.01hrs). This my interpretatation of the rules and it's the safe way in my opinion. Note if you stay in a hotel overnight they will automatically register you even if you stay less than 3 'days' there. It's part of checking in. So if you arrive on weekday 'x' and depart on weekday 'x+1' then strictly you don't need to register. Departing on weekday 'x+2' would be a trickier situation (unclear) and weekday 'x+3' would definitely require registration. Les
