Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Russian visa invitation (Letter of Invitation)?
For a regular Russian tourist visa, the supporting invitation normally consists of a confirmation of admission of a foreign tourist and a tourist voucher issued by a registered Russian tour operator. It supports the visa application but is not the visa itself. Always follow the current checklist of the embassy, consulate or visa centre where you will submit.
How much does a Russian visa invitation cost in 2026?
The displayed price depends on the invitation type, duration and citizenship. Check the current price shown for your citizenship before ordering.
Can a tourist invitation be submitted as a PDF printout?
Many missions publish procedures that accept a printed electronic tourist voucher, but local filing rules can differ and change. Check the current instructions for the location where you will apply before submitting.
When will I receive my invitation after payment?
The invitation is sent by email after payment and any required document review. The timing depends on the order details, review requirements and working schedule shown during the order process.
What information do I need to order a tourist invitation?
Have the passport you will use, your intended travel dates, citizenship and itinerary details ready. The order flow shows any additional information or documents required for the selected product.
