US, Canada, UK, Japan and most of the EU citizens need visa to come to Russia. The list of countries whose citizens are exempt from obtaining Russian visa can be found here. Still we recommend all applicants to contact local Russian Consulate to double-check visa requirements before coming to Russia. Applying for Russian visa you have to choose between Tourist visa and Business visa unless you visit Russia to adopt a child (adoption visa is required), send a child to Russia with a Russian mother (homestay visa), or you plan to stay in Russia over 90 days (student or work visa). The choice between Tourist visa and Business visa depends entirely on the number of entries you need and duration of your stay. A tourist visa to Russia may either be single-entry or double-entry. It gives you the right to stay in Russia for the maximum of 30 days. Some Russian Consulates may only grant a 14 days stay, unless you provide sufficient evidence of necessity to stay 30 days as a tourist. A business visa to Russia may be single or double-entry for 30 or 90 days, or multiple-entry for duration of 180 or 365 days. Please note that only US citizens are allowed to stay in Russia for all 180 consecutive days once the multi-entry business visa is issued. All other nationals are allowed to stay only 90 days within each 180 days period. Neither tourist nor business visa can be extended. You have to leave Russia and apply for a new visa to come back. To get Russian visa you have to prepare a package of documents and apply to the nearest Russian Consulate. The most essential item on the list of documents is visa invitation to Russia.
