What materials need to be prepared for Russian tourist visa processing

The number of Chinese going to Russia is increasing, and many people go to Russia to study, work or travel. Whatever the reason, a visa is required. Let's take a look at how to apply for a Russian visa.

The materials required for Russian visa processing include:

1. Passport: A passport valid for 6 months after the expiration date of the visa and a copy of the passport home page (with at least two blank pages).

2. Photo: A color photo with white background (2 inches, 35MM wide and 45MM high).

3. Visa Application Form: Complete and sign.

4. Travel confirmation letter: a confirmation letter from a Russian travel agency or hotel, which contains your check-in and itinerary information.

Travel insurance: Purchase travel insurance with medical insurance and emergency medical services in Russia.

Proof of funds: Provide recent bank statements or proof of deposit to prove that you have sufficient funds to cover travel expenses.

7. Valid round-trip ticket/train ticket.

Please note that specific material requirements may vary depending on individual circumstances and embassy requirements.

What to consider when applying for a Russian visa:

1. The visa application form should be completed. The Russian embassy or consulate in China may require the applicant to provide supplementary documents or interview as needed.

2. If several people are invited at the same time, each applicant should provide a complete document.

3, the applicant should send a visa or provide a notarized power of attorney.

4. Russia has not yet implemented a 72-hour visa-free transit system, and there is no airport visa on arrival.

5. Citizens of Schengen Treaty countries, Israel, Finland, Estonia and Lithuania should provide a valid medical insurance policy or a guarantee that the inviting party will compensate for the cost of medical care.

There is no problem with the visa application materials submitted by the applicant. If the purpose of the trip is clear, the visa can be issued within 8-10 working days. If it is urgent, it can be signed within 4-5 working days. The sticker tourist visa does not restrict the tourist area and can be used throughout Russia.
