The Russia e-Visa Program | Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Russian e-Visa?

In August 2017, the Russian Federation began accepting visa applications online to help streamline their visa program for foreign nationals. Once Spanish nationals are allowed to apply for a Russian e-Visa, it will be released on iVisa’s website. Then we can help you more to figure out the best way to apply.

How long will it take to receive an e-Visa once I have applied?

Usually, it takes no longer than 4 days to receive an e-Visa, but this depends on your visa operator and their e-Visa program requirements.

What type of travel is allowed using a Russian e-Visa?

Currently, the Russian e-Visa can be used for various purposes: business travel, tourism, and humanitarian reasons (in sports, culture, science, and technology).

What regions of Russia currently accept e-Visas?

The following regions of Russia currently allow foreign citizens to enter the borders with a valid e-Visa:

  • The Far East
  • Kaliningrad Oblast
  • St. Petersburg
  • Leningrad

Do I need medical insurance if I am a foreign citizen traveling to Russia?

Yes. You will need to acquire personal medical insurance for international travel.

What is the expiration date of a Russian e-Visa?

The Russian e-Visa will expire after 30 days from the date of issuance. This means that you will need to enter Russia with the visa within 30 days from the issuance date or the visa will become invalid.

Make sure to plan your trip to Russia within this timeframe so you do not make the mistake of allowing your visa to expire before you can use it.

Can I travel between different regions of Russia with the same e-Visa?

It depends on which region you enter and what the specific requirements are for that region according to Russian federal law. Most visas though, are only good to use for the specific region that you chose to travel to.

How many times can I enter Russia with an e-Visa?

The Russian e-Visa is a single entry visa. This means you are permitted entry in the Russian Federation one time. If you exit or leave Russia, you will not be allowed to reenter the country without another visa.

Russian e-Visa Length of Stay

The e-Visa program currently allows visa holders to stay in Russia for up to 8 days from the date of entry in the country.

What documents and information are required to fill out a Russia e-Visa application?

At the bare minimum, you will need the following documents and information to fill out the online application for a Russian e-Visa:

  • Invitation Letter - You can request an invitation letter from your Russian tour operator or the hotel or hostel you plan to stay at while in the country. In many cases, an invitation letter from a natural or legal person who currently lives in Russia is also accepted and can be used for business, study, tourism, or personal reasons. If you are lodging in different regions of Russia, you will need an invitation letter from each host of your stay.
  • Passport-Style Photo - Colored photos only, white background, ratio of 3.5 x 4.5
  • Valid Passport - Your passport needs to be valid for a minimum of 6 months from the last day you plan to be in Russia. Have a couple of blank pages.
