1. Fill in the personal information
First, open the official website of the Russian electronic visa and enter the electronic visa application page. In the page, you need to fill in the personal information. Including name, date of birth, nationality, passport number, passport valid period, etc. When filling in this information, you need to pay attention to ensure accuracy.
2. Upload photos and passport information
After filling in the personal information, you need to upload photos and passport information. The photos must meet the specified size and format to ensure the smooth passage of the application. Passport information includes the information page of the passport and the travel record page. This step should also pay attention to ensure the accuracy of the information.
III. Payment
After the upload of photos and passport information is completed, the visa fee needs to be paid. The fee will depend on the type and duration of the visa. The visa fee can be paid by credit card or debit card.
IV. Waiting for approval
After submitting the visa application, you need to wait a few working days for the approval result. Usually, the time for electronic visa approval is shorter than that of traditional visas. But you still need to be patient and do not make unnecessary actions during the waiting period, so as not to affect the application result.
V. Receiving an e-visa
If the e-visa application is approved, the visa will be sent to you in the form of an e-mail. You just need to print the visa and bring it with you. At the time of entry, submit the visa to the visa officer and prepare other required documents and answer questions about travel plans.
How to apply for an e-visa?
There are usually two ways to apply for an e-visa:
One is to fill in the simple information on the visa application official website, upload the corresponding materials and pay the visa fee directly. After approval, the e-visa can be received in the designated mailbox;
The other type requires the applicant to submit relevant paper materials to the embassy or consulate of the corresponding country. After the embassy or consulate approves the application, the e-visa will be issued by mail. Either way, the final presentation is an e-visa sent to the mailbox. Before departure, print out the e-visa and use it together with the air ticket and passport.
