Things To Remember when Applying for a Russian Tourist Visa: 


A Russian visa is a sticker that is placed inside the actual passport 
  An applicant submits the original singed (Canadian) passport, plus one copy of the information page

  The passport must be valid for at least six (6) months beyond stay, and with at least three blank passport pages available for the Russian visa stamps. 

  Amendment pages in the back of the passport are not suitable for a Russia visa

• Please make sure that your passport is signed

• A tourist visa can not be longer than 30 days. Dates of a tourist visa (validity) usually match the dates specified on your visa support document (LOI)   


• The application must be printed on two pages (Toronto) 


• Information on on-line application, including name, dates, passport, cities visited, must exactly match the information on a confirmation letter 

• Please make you save your application ID and a password to be able to return to the file later & make any changes or corrections to online application. Handwritten corrections are not permitted 

 
• We make a final review of your application before the file is submitted for visa issuance
