Russia Tourist Visa
Hi All . . . I plan to ship my motorcycle to Vladivostok from India and go towards Magadan and from there come back to Magnolia and again into Russia towards Moscow into Finland . . Russian visa is only for 30 days and looks difficult to do in that time frame . . . what happens if I don't exit on time OR what are the other options for the same . . .

Back in 2015, I paid extra for a business visa (from London), mainly as I needed triple entry, but also it didn't put me in a corner time-wise.
I used Real Russia, but it may be possible to do it yourself? |
What is your nationality, and where will you be when applying for the visa?
Many people use a business visa, which at least gives you 3 months double entry. I think you can do it in 30 days, but it won't be fun maybe, with 300km each day. And you may loose time in Vladivostok if the bike comes in later. Do you want more time or also visit other countries? |
It depends on your nationality.
But I would always advice to get a multi entry business visa. So much easier to travel and if you have a problem ( maybe with the bike ) you can go out to get parts and back to fix it and lots more. And the costs usually are not so much more expensive ( for most countries it is maybe 100-200 € more. And it is possible to get it, even when you apply for the first time. If a visa agency tells you it is not possible, than they don't have the right connections to get LOI from FMS |
I am from India . .

I don't know how the rules are for people from India. Have you tried visa agencies in India? Can they arrange a business visa for you or do you have to apply yourself?

I am right now getting a double entry which is for 90 days, you may need an invite letter as well. I am from NZ
