Do Tunisian citizens need a Russia Tourist Visa?
Yes, Tunisians planning a trip to Russia must get a Russia Tourist Visa. This visa is essential for your travels.
A key part of applying for this visa is obtaining a Russian Letter of Invitation. Also known as a tourist voucher or visa support letter, this document can be provided by the hotel where you're staying or by a tour operator in Russia that's officially registered. It acts as your formal invitation to visit Russia for tourism.
Understanding the Russia Business Visa
The Russia Business Visa is for people going to Russia for business-related matters, like going to meetings, conferences, or exploring business opportunities. But it's important to remember that this visa doesn't allow you to work or seek employment in Russia.
For your application, you'll need a Russia Business Invitation Letter. Depending on where you're from, you can get this letter from one of a few places in Russia, such as:
-
The General Directorate for Migration of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
-
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
-
A visa directive issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
-
The Russian company you're visiting.
