Visas are required to enter Russia and many other countries. A visa is a small sheet that is glued inside your passport.

Visas come in several forms. The most common are single and double entry tourist visas for 30 days. Other forms include longer stays, multiple entry, business visas and home stays.

Visas are time sensitive documents, and consular fees tend to be based on the number of entries and visit duration.
