Answer
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.
