Russian Tourist Visa Documents for Filipino Citizens
For the regular tourist-visa route, the Russian Embassy in Manila lists a printed and signed online application with a 3.5 × 4.5 cm photo, a passport valid for at least six months from visa expiry, and both a tourist voucher and confirmation from an authorised Russian travel agency. The confirmation and application dates should match.

Visa rules and local procedures can change. Check the responsible Russian mission or MFA service before filing.
The Embassy-listed core file
Complete the application at visa.kdmid.ru, print it, sign it and attach the required photograph. Use the same passport and travel dates across the application and tourist support documents.
The voucher and confirmation are two parts of the regular tourist-visa support set. They support the application but are not the visa and do not guarantee a decision.
| Document | Source-bound check |

Additional rule for non-Philippine applicants
A person who is not a Philippine citizen must also show a residence permit, long-term visa or other evidence of the right to stay in the Philippines for more than 180 days, according to the Embassy page.
Because individual circumstances and local services can change, use the official Manila instructions rather than copying a third-party checklist from another nationality or mission.

Before the appointment
Check every passport character, travel date and entry request before booking travel to the mission. Use the official MFA Manila appointment system to verify the available service and current appointment procedure.
Keep Philippine departure requirements separate from the Russian visa file. eTravel and any employment-related clearance apply at a different stage and do not replace Embassy documents.
