Hello, i will be travelling to moscow (only destination in russia) for a week on a tourist visa but i plan to be staying with some close friends (rent free). I have obtained a visa support and tour voucher from another online company. In regards to visa regestration they told me i have to get a "landlord's autharisation" and a letter from them and then go to a police station to register my visa.
I have read the description of the above process on your website in regard to moscow spesifically- it seems quite lengthy.
Can i purchase any services from your company or your partners to stream line this process?
thank you for your assistance

From what I have heard, it is best to either have obtained a business visa--even as a tourist (doesn't cost that much more in my opinion) as for a tourist visa you are obligated to stay or at least check in to a hotel-(even if you don't stay at the hotel) at least 1 night and let the hotel register you. I haven't heard anything that says you can have a tourist visa and stay with friends. But I could be wrong. Rolling Eyes
