Pflichtgebühr an das Konsulat für die Bearbeitung des Visumantrags. Die Höhe hängt von der Staatsbürgerschaft und dem Visumtyp ab.
The consular fee is the official charge levied by a Russian embassy or consulate for reviewing and processing a visa application. This fee is separate from the cost of obtaining a visa invitation and is paid directly to the consulate (usually at the time of application submission).
Typical consular fee ranges (2024–2026):
The consular fee varies based on: 1. Your nationality (bilateral agreements affect pricing) 2. Visa type (tourist, business, work, student, etc.) 3. Number of entries (single, double, multiple) 4. Processing speed (standard, express, urgent) 5. Visa duration (for business visas: 3 months, 6 months, 1 year)
Important: The consular fee is NON-REFUNDABLE, even if your visa application is denied. Some consulates also charge a separate "service fee" if you apply through a visa application center (like VFS Global) rather than directly at the consulate.
The consular fee does NOT include the cost of the visa invitation, which must be obtained separately before applying.
The consular fee varies by nationality and processing speed. Most nationalities pay $40–$80 for standard processing. US citizens pay a fixed $160 regardless of visa type. Express processing costs more.
No. The consular fee is non-refundable regardless of the outcome of your application.
