Multiple entry Russian visa help
Please help me team I'm struggling on the 1st hurdle! Must be out of practice!
Ok going on my geography when I leave New Zealand I ship to Vladivostok. I then drive into Mongolia pop out the other side into Russia then into Kazakhstan followed by back into Russia before I hit Eastern Europe.
As a Russian visa is only double entry and valid for 90 days how do I get around this?
Based in New Zealand right now have a British and New Zealand passport.
Cheers
Rich

Your answer is your question... get a multiple entry visa.

As EO said, you have to get a multiple entry Business Visa.
Fairly straightforward to get sorted. Find a good agency and wait. Give yourself at least 4 to 6 weeks.

A good agency depends on where you are.... New Zealand?
Rules also depend on nationality and location. I am French, and my Russian Business visa, in the UK, costs half that of my British husband, BUT I need to provide a return plane ticket! Go figure!
However, in France, as a French, rules again are different from what I gather.
So see locally.
Good luck.
Cheers,

Hi! I would recommend to visit Belarus and Ukraine also. These ountries differ from Russia and have a number of places to visit.
However more visas to open.

I'm American and recently secured a multi-entry business visa for Russia, using an US based agency. As I understand it a "business" visa is needed for more than two entries, and I'm doing three. The agency arranged my "business" contact and secured the needed business invitation.
It took two months and cost a fair bit of coin!
