Armenian citizens need a traditional visa to visit Russia — the e-visa is not available for your nationality. Don't worry: the process is straightforward once you have your invitation letter. Here's your complete step-by-step guide.
As a Armenian citizen, you need a traditional Russian visa. The e-visa is NOT available to Armenian passport holders. You must apply through a Russian consulate or visa center.
For an ordinary tourist visa, tourist confirmation is normally part of the supporting documents. Current price, payment methods and delivery estimate are shown before payment. Business-product availability must be checked by passport citizenship.
Fill out the official Russian visa application form at visa.kdmid.ru. You'll need your passport details, travel dates, accommodation info (from your invitation), and a passport-sized photo (3.5×4.5cm).
Submit your documents at Embassy of Russia, Yerevan or 1 other location(s) in Armenia. You can also use VFS Global visa centers where available. Processing takes N/A (visa-free).
Once approved, your visa sticker will be placed in your passport. Make sure to register within 7 business days of arrival in Russia (your hotel usually does this automatically).
Review current tourist-confirmation terms before payment. The competent authority decides each application.
