Wink American Applying For 3-Yr Multi entry Visa

Hola my extreme motorcycle riding HU amigos. I have searched the HU for agencies that process visas for Americans. I want to apply for the 3-Yr multi entry visa. I want to let a credible agency do the work for me. I will be riding my Harley-Davidson RTW. I will enter Kazakhstan and Mongolia bot times re-entering Russia. I need help and advice for two questions:

1) Most posts i saw were out dated but looking for a quality and trustworthy agency to obtain the visa for me.

2) Has anyone applied for a visa recently and how was your experience?

3) ok, three questions, is anyone having trouble with the Covid virus in obtaining a visa?

I thank you in advance for any assistance you can give me. Stay safe and healthy my friends :-)

Hi,

I don't know what your timing is but as I understand it, Russia is not currently issuing any visas.

I was in the process of finding a visa agency when the shit hit the fan, so I've put it on hold for now. Also, be sure that your visa agency also provides the invitation letter that you'll need, as far as I could tell, some do and some don't.

Are you planning to travel this year? You're probably aware, but AFAIK Russia's borders are totally closed right now, even for citizens, for several weeks.

Talking

My plan was to travel May 2021 around the world on my Harley. From my posts readings I understand the requirement of the invitation letter. I was hoping on making contact with a reputable agency that does offer an invitation letter. Thought I could get a head start even if its just getting a quote and finding out what docs I need to provide for transaction. Appreciate the feedback from you all.

Still interested in the contact info of a reputable visa agency

I saw them in my research............

Thank you for sharing that company with me. I was reading some well written articles with this company but have not done a search for reviews. The company website is: https://waytorussia.net/

They have been in biz since 2001. Wondering is anyone has used or heard of them. I am not going to bed but tomorrow (or later today), I will research your link

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
