    • Business visa to Russia

    A business visa to Russia is granted for individuals going to Russia for business purposes. There are several sub-types of business visas, such as ordinary, technical support, crew member, family attendant, etc. Business visas are normally issued for a period of 30 / 90 / 180 / 365 days and could be issued for a single, double or multiple entries. Bear in mind that the validity of the visa will correspond to the dates stated in the business invitation letter.

    Double-entry visa is granted only if you are leaving Russia to the neighbouring (bordering) country.

    • A multiple-entry 1-year visa allows you to enter Russia several times during the validity of the visa. However, be aware of the 90-day rule which stipulates that an individual cannot stay in Russia for more than 90 days out of every 180 days. The 90 days’ period starts from the date of arrival to Russia.
