Russian Transit Visa for Citizens of Kanada
A classic invitation letter is NOT required for a transit visa. Your travel tickets serve as the basis.
What you need instead of an invitation:
- Valid tickets for entry into and exit from Russia
- Visa to the country of final destination (if required)
- Valid medical insurance
Alternative: Tourist Visa
If you plan to stay in Russia for more than 3 days or want to explore the city freely, it is often easier to apply for a standard tourist visa. We can issue a tourist voucher for it in 5 minutes.
