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 a traditional visa, you need a visa invitation (also called "visa support" or "Letter of Invitation"). Tourist invitations can be ordered online in 15 minutes from GetRussianVisa.com for just N/A. Business invitations start at $149.
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).
Get your visa invitation letter in 15 minutes. Accepted by all Russian consulates worldwide.
