Do I need a Russian visa?
The answer is almost certainly yes. Citizens of some CIS countries do not require visas, but all other visitors to Russia are obliged to have a Russian visa valid for the entire period of their stay in Russia, even if they are only passing through. At present, Russian visas can only be obtained at Russian Consular Departments, and not at border crossings.
What is a visa to Russia?
A visa to Russia is a document allowing a foreign national to visit Russia (and stay in the country) for a specific period. Most visas are meant for single entry (one entry - one exit), while some types of visas (e.g. Business visas) may allow multiple entries/exits within the specific period of time.
What type of Russian visa do I need?
Unless you are planning to stay in Russia for longer than one month, then all you will need is a single-entry tourist visa, whatever the purpose of your trip. If you want to stay in Russia for longer than a month, then follow this link to read a full guide on how to obtain all types of Russian visa: http://www.moscow.info/russian-visa/index.aspx
Can Moscow Hotels help me get a Russian visa?
If you book a hotel through Moscow Hotels, then we will provide you with the documents you need to apply for a Russian tourist visa (a tourist voucher and tourist confirmation, often referred to together as a visa invitation) free of charge. All you will have to do then is fill out an application form and apply to your nearest Russian consular department. For full details of how to apply for a Russian visa, check http://www.moscow.info/russian-visa/index.aspx
