Russian Embassy in The Hague: What are the common Russian visas and their obtaining process?

March 13, 2013 - PRLog -- Everyone even people who has never gone abroad know that proper visa and passport are the must if you want to enter a foreign country. That’s the general regulation of all nations in the world except for some special cases. For example, citizens of a country which is a member of European Union is allowed to enter other European countries without visa and passport. Japan has the “Reciprocal Visa Exemption Arrangements” with Australia and New Zealand for a time period of 90 days or less. The citizen of countries which have the “Reciprocal Visa Exemption Arrangements” with Japan will be allowed to enter this country with visa and passport checking. Another example is Australia, citizens of this country and New Zealand can visit each other without any passport and visa procedure. The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) with  eleven countries located in Southeast Asia is planning for the visa exemptions.  

That is a small amount of people that can get benefits from visa exemptions. Passport and visa are still a must document in crossing the border of 196 countries in the world. The knowledge on the visa is rather various. In this post, let’s learn about the types of visa. This is also quite different from this nation to others. Each nation has their own visa type dividing way and each type’s regulation.  

Russian divides visa into 6 groups: business visa, tourist visa, student visa, personal visa, work visa and transit visa. People must consider on the type of visa to apply for before preparing for the trip. The tourist visa is the easiest type to get with the period of staying up to 30 days. So if one intends to visit Russia in less than 30 days, a tourist visa is the best choice. But if you need a longer staying time, a business visa is better. You will be consulted on the visa type when applying for it, you will have to fill in “purpose of your trip”. The officer of embassy will give a good advice on this, so no need to hesitate, ask for the help. You can find 141 Russian embassies and 36 Russian consulates over the world: Russian Embassy in Wellington, New Zealand; Russian Embassy in Oslo, Norway; Russian Embassy in Warsaw, Poland; Russian Embassy in Seoul, South Korea; Russian Embassy in Barcelona, Spain; Russian Embassy in The Hague, Netherlands, etc.
