|
|
Priviet! My name is Diego, I live in Brazil, and I want to visit a friend in Krasnodar, Russia, in January 2010.
I called the Russian embassy here in São Paulo many times to get the informations about the visa, but my biggest fear is the invitation letter. My friend is trying to make it at her city, but I'm afraid it's not going to work, and we have a too little time.
Can I buy it by this website, even if I'm staying at her house? Do I need any new document because of it? May I apply the visa one month before my trip?
I'm waiting for an answer!
Best regards,
Diego |

Hello there...I'm an Italian citizen who loves visiting Russia...Recently I found a very useful website which provides invitation for visa very quickly and with a small price...the website is www.russian-visas.net

Don't worry too much, you have plenty of time.
I have read that it can take several weeks for a Russian citizen to make an official private letter of invitation.
The good news is that for not very much expense, you can get an invitation letter from a travel company (for example, through this website). If you do this, you will save your Russian friend some time and money, and get your invitation very quickly. But a specific company can often make invitations only for certain countries, so you must find a company that can issue invitations for Brazilians.
At some Russian consulates, a FAX of the letter is acceptable, but others require the actual letter -- ask your Russian Embassy about this! If they need the letter, you will have to pay for international mailing, and allow some extra days for this.
More good news: the invitation address doesn't have to match where you are staying. I suggest that on your visa application (you should apply for a tourist visa), where they ask what cities you will visit, write both Krasnodar, and the city given as the invitation address. That you will register your visa in a town different from the invitation address is no problem.
Finally, you can generally apply for a tourist visa up to 90 days before your trip, so you should be able to start your application right away. |
