E-Visum (Elektronisches Visum) für Russland

Ein elektronisches Visum, das online ohne Konsulatsbesuch beantragt wird. Verfügbar für Bürger von 64 Ländern für Aufenthalte bis 30 Tage.

Ausführliche Erklärung

The Russian e-visa (electronic visa) is a simplified visa that can be applied for entirely online through the official Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs portal (evisa.kdmid.ru). It was introduced to make short visits to Russia more accessible.

Key characteristics of the Russian e-visa:

  • •Cost: Check the current payable amount on the official MFA portal
  • •Processing time: Up to 4 calendar days
  • •Validity: 120 days from issue date
  • •Maximum stay: 30 days
  • •Entry type: Single entry only
  • •Purpose: Tourism, business, humanitarian, or guest visits
  • •Application: Online only at evisa.kdmid.ru
  • •No invitation required
  • •No need to visit a consulate

Eligible countries include most EU member states, China, India, Japan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Indonesia, Mexico, and many others (64 countries total).

Notable exclusions: Citizens of the United States, United Kingdom, and Canada are NOT eligible for the Russian e-visa and must apply for a traditional visa with an invitation.

The e-visa allows entry through designated checkpoints only. The reviewed Rules API does not publish the complete structured checkpoint list, so travelers must use the live official MFA registry before travel. It can be extended only on exceptional legal grounds once in Russia.

Compared with an ordinary visa, the e-visa has a single-entry limitation and its own purpose, timing and checkpoint conditions. Tourist confirmation is not required for the e-visa; it is used where required for an ordinary tourist application.
