Types of business visa invitations: 1. Original FMS/MVD form — Official government-registered invitation with barcode 2. Electronic FMS invitation — Sent electronically to the consulate 3.

The business visa is the most flexible Russian visa type:

  • Allows multiple entries and exits
  • Can be valid for up to 1 year
  • Permits business activities (but not employment)
  • Can be obtained without actually having business in Russia
  • No requirement to prove business relationship

Many long-term travelers and digital nomads use the business visa as an alternative to the 30-day tourist visa, even if their actual purpose is tourism.
