Hi, I'm planning to go to Russia in July at the place of my girlfriend's parents in Novosibirsk. I just received the invitation letter from her mother, and intend to go to the consulate in the next days to apply for a private Visa. Concerning this, the information I found on this web-site posed to me several questions: 1) as we have not yet booked the flight tickets, on my Visa application form I can't specifiy exactly the entry date and exit date. Can I just ask the Visa from July 1st to July 31st, and then feel free to entry and exit (of course only 1 time) in between this dates? 2) on our way from Hamburg (Germany) to Novosibirsk, we plan to stop for a few days in Moscow into some hotel; on our way back from Novosibirsk to Hamburg, after 2 weeks in Novosibirsk, we plan to stop a few days in St. Petersburg. The question is: I read on the web-site that when one has a private Visa, he can only stay at the place of the inviting person (in my case, my girlfriends' parents), but in my trip I will need to use an Hotel both in Moscow and in St. Petersburg... what do I have to do then?? Thank you very much in advance for your answers!! Devis

The worst thing is that the hotel will not want to register you, but if you register your visa in Novosibirsk in a local OVIR, that should be fine.
