I´m a portuguese national and I´m applying for a tourist visa in the Russian Embassy at London. I would like to know if the medical insurance I have to provide has to be from a specific company... I ask this because some friends told me that the russian consulate in Lisbon is "prefering" the medical insurances from "AXA Insurance".

Thank you
Daniel

Apart from answering the question on the visa application form I have never been asked anything about medical insurance, and have never had to show a copy of the policy.

You should have it for your own peace of mind, but as far as I am aware, the choice of insurer is entirely yours.

I know that required proof of insurance depends on the country you are from
