Private Visa to Russia for Lithuania Citizens

This page explains the private-visa alternative. Lithuania citizens should first check the current visa-free or eVisa route for a private visit; an MVD invitation is used only for the matching regular private visa.

Check the unified eVisa route first

Lithuania citizens are on the current eVisa list. Check whether the eVisa covers a private visit, duration and entry needs. An invitation is not required for the eVisa.
