Many countries are now included in the list of visa-free countries with Russia, so your journey to language learning will be even easier.
For citizens of countries that require a visa to travel to Russia, we are always ready to help with the issuance of an invitation letter to make your travel preparations smoother!

Electronic (e-Visa), Tourist, Student, Guest, Diplomatic and Transit. For our students, we can prepare a letter of invitation to apply for a tourist or student visa if needed. We always check the most up-to-date information to ensure that your trip will go smoothly and we’ll recommend the option that will be the most relevant at the moment!

To apply for a student visa, it is always necessary to have a letter of invitation. This can take a few weeks to prepare from our school, so take this into account when planning your trip.
If you are planning a short-term trip (about 14 days), you can apply for an e-visa and get it within a few days! This type of visa may not be available for some countries, so it’s important to check this information when planning your trip.

At the moment, many students from different countries come to study at our school: Italy, France, Spain, Germany, UK and even the USA.
If you have difficulties with obtaining visa to Russia, we have an official branch in Armenia, Yerevan. This is a country with a rich culture and a large Russian-speaking community! The most important thing is that most countries do not need a visa to visit it! So when planning your trip you can also choose this destination.

The process consists of several points.
Selecting the type of visa: First you need to determine what type of visa you need – tourist, student, etc.

Invitation: For most types of visas you need an invitation from an official organization in Russia. In some cases, the invitation can be issued through the consulate.

Filling in the application form: You fill in the visa application form on the website of the Russian consulate. In the questionnaire you need to provide personal data and information about the trip.

Among the documents usually required:
1. Passport (validity period should be at least 6 months after the end of the visa).
2. Photo.
3. Invitation.
4. Questionnaire.
5. Health insurance (in some cases).

Application and payment of consular fee: Apply at a Russian consulate or visa center in your country.

Usually the visa is issued within 7-10 working days, but we recommend to apply for a visa not earlier than 14 days before the date of planned entry into the Russian Federation.
