According to my guide on The Healthy Voyager, here’s the streamlined process for a Russian unified e-visa:

  • Check that your nationality is on Russia’s eligible e-visa list

  • Apply only via the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs website

  • Fill out the online form and upload:

    • Valid passport (machine-readable, 6+ months’ validity)
    • Recent JPEG photo
    • Medical insurance covering your stay
    • Debit/credit card details for the $40 consular fee (kids under 6 are free)
  • Processing is usually within 4 days

  • The visa allows one entry for up to 16 days, usable within 60 days of issuance, for tourism, business, private, or humanitarian purposes

  • You can travel throughout Russia’s regions and enter via the listed air, sea, rail, and car checkpoints in the article.
