Russian Visa Letter of Invitation.

Residents of most countries in the world need a visa to visit Russia. This can be a private, travel, work, or business visa. In each case, a foreign national should get a Russian visa letter of invitation. The visa center of the Arkada company provides assistance in getting travel or business visa letters of invitation for Chinese residents.

This document entitles you to a single entry to our country for the duration of stay of up to one month. Getting a travel visa letter of invitation independently is impossible because it can only be obtained by a travel agency accredited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation. The document is issued only if your visit Russia for the purposes of tourism, i.e. to see the sights of our tourist-friendly country. Depending on the migration safety or overall safety of a foreigner’s country of residence, it may take from one hour up to several days to get a travel visa. Residents of the countries safe in terms of migration (Europe, America, the UK) may get a visa letter of invitation within a few hours at a minimal cost. Residents of the unsafe, in terms of migration, countries (Asia, Iran, Iraq, Algeria, African countries, and others) should submit original travel visa letter of invitation which can be obtained within 1-2 business days. Then it should be sent to Russia to the visa applicant to be submitted to the Consulate of the corresponding country. Arkada’s visa center managers will get all the necessary documents in the shortest possible time.

Business visa letter of invitation is a letter of invitation issued by a legal entity accredited by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation. It can be obtained both in the form of a Foreign Ministry telex and in the form of a letter of invitation on the original company’s letterhead. This visa does not entitle you to work in the Russian Federation. It can be a single entry, double entry, or multiple entry visa. The letter of invitation can be issued up to one year. Its price and validity vary depending on the type (Foreign Ministry telex or a letter of invitation on the company’s letterhead). It also depends on the potential visitor’s country of residence safety in terms of migration. Arkada’s experts will deal with selection of an inviting company, prepare all the necessary paperwork, and, if necessary, send the original Russian visa letter of invitation to the applicant.

Residents of China, Angola, Algeria, Iraq, Iran, Nigeria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan must additionally pay 3,000 Russian rubles for a business visa letter of invitation, due to the fact that they are considered as residents of the countries unsafe in terms of migration.

Please note that the price of a Russian visa letter of invitation for residents of the countries unsafe in terms of migration (including residents of China) constantly changes. Please call +7(495) 517-51-89 to get accurate information about its current price.
