Invitations and visa support
(Scroll down for the
old but still mostly valid stuff)
|
|
Multiple entry one year visa:
$270, including registration and associated footwork in
Moscow. |
For **my** clients or those who order
several invitations through me I can dispense with the registration
fee, thus your total visa support will cost you $50, including
no-hassle registration.
Need the original? I'm now looking into a cheap way to send them.
Watch for new info.. |
I am
now able to issue invitations and do registrations.
Invitations are e-mailed same or next day in most cases and cost from $50
(tourist) to $250+ (business multi-entry). Registration is $25 for
clients who obtained their invitations through me and $40 for those who
did it elsewhere. Pickup and
delivery of papers in Moscow is included, i.e. you do not need to look for the office
in the outskirts of the city, stand in line in OVIR etc. Invitations/registrations are not my main
product and thus the prices I'm able to offer are somewhat higher than
average although by no means the highest. It is often simpler, however,
to get me to do your visa support than to arrange it elsewhere and then
call me with question, as was often the case, which was exatly what
prompted me to investigate the scene and to come up with this offer.
To get started I'll need from you a scan of your passport, with text
and numbers readable, but no more than 200kb because downloading large
files via GPRS at my
dacha is no fun, and you can expect an e-mailed invitation
(acceptable in most western countries) within hours. The original can be
posted at the cost from $25 to $70 but again, if you are in US, Canada,
or one of the European countries, you don't need the original. Start by
checking with the Russian Consulate where you plan to apply for your
visa. Payment can be made via PayPal through an American associate of
mine, or by cheque sent to my bank in London, Ontario. Those shopping for the lowest
price see the list of agencies below. I recommend that you double check
if they will register you visa or merely issue a letter that you then
yourself take to the police station, where you are told to come back
next day, fill the form in triplicate etc. Please consider that your footwork may negate what you think you are saving. If you
value your time, chose an agency that offers complete support. Some of
those listed below will also arrange for your application to be
delivered to the Russian consulate, and your visa brought to your door.
Look for
simplicity rather than the lowest nominal number.

Visa support agencies
www.transworldvisas.com/
They do visas to a lot of countries, including Russia. Positive
feedback from my clients who arranged visa support though them.
From my mailbox:
> The Scottish visa company I mentioned -
www.Russiadirect.net. good
people -
> actual visas not dummy invitations and very efficient for tourist
& business
> people. They will deal with the Russian Consulate in London on
your behalf...
...Intel Visa Services
( www.intelservice.ru /
www.visatorussia.com
can no longer be recommended after several pieces of negative feedback
EXAMPLE They also will no longer
register your visa.
....From my mailbox: ."The visa support scene sucks
but try www.gotorussia.com
или www.russia-travel.com.
These two will register you too but there will be a charge of $30-50 of
which you may not be told by their western counterpart."
...Visa
House Invitation
issued via e-mail within 15 minutes during business days. Good feedback.

BTW, I must thank you for having the information for
Indian nationals on your website. If I hadn't read about

...The
government department responsible for visas, invitation, immigration
etc. is called
UVIR, their
office is located in Pokrovka 42 (M. Kurskaya or Kitai-Gorod).
Telephones: 207-0113/3930/3032. Usually it is faster and cheaper
to work through agents but in cases out of the ordinary, eg. lost or
expired visas, you may have no choice but to deal with OVIR/UVIR
