(Valid up to 3 months)
Homestay visa is the best choice when you have friends or relatives in Russia who plan to host you stay during your trip Russia. It is more flexible then regular tourist visas. The invitation is required from your Russian hosts – it may take up to 2 months for internal UVIR’s to process the request and then an original invitation has to be sent to the Russian consulate in your country for processing.

One of the most notable features of present day in Russia is a renewed celebration of the wealth of its past and its potential for the future. Throwing off the blanket of communist uniformity, Russia today is a nation of enormous diversity and tremendous vitality, and an open gate for all, this change made it easier in getting travel visas to visit our country. A new Russia is now in full bloom.
