Frequently Asked Questions

Yes—each traveler (including minors) needs their own application or e-Visa. We prepare family packs with consent letters, birth certificates where required, and aligned itineraries so decisions don’t split. For e-Visas, insurance covering Russia is required; we arrange compliant policies for every traveler.

For nationalities that face stricter documentation, we’ll strengthen the file (e.g., hotel confirmations or tourist support in the correct format) and brief you on any centre-specific checks we’ve seen in Dubai.

We manage the process end-to-end: we complete your forms, assemble the file, book your appointment, and submit your application on your behalf at the official Russian Visa Centre in Dubai. You just share your passport scan and travel dates; we prepare everything exactly to consular standards so the file is accepted the first time.

For convenience, we offer free pick-up & drop for clients in nearby Dubai districts (a small logistics fee applies for farther locations), and we can take compliant passport photos in our office before submission. If you’re unsure whether you need an e-Visa or a regular sticker visa, we’ll advise the best route for your itinerary and passport.

Yes, you can apply in Dubai even if you’re not a UAE national. The visa centre accepts applications from non-UAE citizens who can prove legal stay in the UAE (e.g., residence visa or valid entry status). We’ll check your status and include the exact proof the centre requests.

If your stay in the UAE is very short, we’ll assess whether Dubai is still the fastest option or if it’s smarter to apply where you live. Either way, we’ll prepare the file and submit on your behalf so you don’t chase paperwork.

For a business visa, you generally need an official invitation from Russia (e.g., Migration authorities or an MFA TELEX sent directly to the consulate). We coordinate with your host to issue the correct format and match your requested validity (single, double, or multiple entry).

If your trip is short and simple, the e-Visa may be enough (no invitation needed). We’ll compare both options against your agenda and submit the route that gets you traveling with minimum friction.

Yes. Russia’s Unified e-Visa is single-entry, valid 60 days, and allows a maximum stay of 16 days. It’s filed 40–4 days before travel and is processed in up to 4 calendar days. Critically, no invitation letter or hotel booking is required for the e-Visa; we handle the online application, timing, and required travel medical insurance for you.

We’ll confirm your eligibility and match the e-Visa to your exact entry point and dates. If your plan needs more than 16 days, multiple entries, or specific business activities, we’ll steer you to the appropriate regular (sticker) visa instead and submit it for you.

For a sticker tourist visa, the consulate expects the online application (visa.kdmid.ru), a valid passport and photo, and an appointment; many applicants also need tourist support (voucher/confirmation) issued by a registered Russian tour operator or hotel. We source compliant tourist support if you don’t have it and place documents in the exact order required.

Your core set with us is simple: passport (6+ months validity), photo (we can shoot this in our office), UAE status proof (residents or visitors), itinerary, and insurance. We submit on your behalf at the Dubai visa centre and track the file to passport return

UAE citizens can visit visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period under the bilateral agreement in force since 17 February 2019 (not valid for work/study). We’ll still arrange flights, hotels, and insurance, and brief you on border formalities.

If your purpose is beyond visa-free limits (work, study, long stay), you’ll need the appropriate visa. Share your purpose and dates and we’ll prepare and submit the right application.

We collect your documents (pick-up included for nearby Dubai areas), take photos if needed, prepare forms, secure your appointment, arrange tourist support or business invitations, and submit your application on your behalf at the Russian Visa Centre. You’ll receive proactive updates until passport delivery.

To kick off, send your passport scan, UAE status (residence or entry), planned dates/cities, and purpose (tourist/business). We’ll confirm e-Visa vs. regular visa, share your tailored checklist, and book the earliest viable slot—then handle the rest.

Officially, e-Visas are processed within 4 calendar days after submission. Regular (sticker) visas vary by category, season, and completeness of documents; we’ll confirm current Dubai timelines when we book your slot and structure your file to avoid “return for corrections” delays.

For time-sensitive trips, we build your case the same day, submit on your behalf, and monitor status closely. If an interview, extra documents, or a different consular route will be faster for your passport, we’ll pivot and do it.
