Russia visa!

What is a Russian Visa?

A visa to the Russian Federation is a document that allows you to stay in Russia for a specific period of time. The visa lists entry/exit dates, your name, passport details, and your purpose of travel. Please note that your Russian visa is an exit permit in the same way it is an entry permit: if you lose it or stay beyond your designated departure date, leaving the country could be more troublesome than entering it.

It is not possible to have two different valid Russian visas in your passport at one time. The consulate will invalidate the first visa in order to authorize the new, second one.

Russian Tourist Visa

The tourist visa is a document which allows foreigners to travel to Russia as tourists. Such visas are issued for a maximum of 30 days and cannot be extended. A tourist visa is the best option when you know exactly where and how long you will be staying without diverting from your planned itinerary. For a tourist visa to Russia, you must have confirmed accommodation for every night of your stay in the country.

Important information for Russian citizens and citizens of the former USS

Important Information for citizens of the Russian Federation and citizens of the former USSR, who used to live in the territory of the Russian Federation and immigrated after 6 February 1992.

According to part 6 of Federal Law "Regulation of exit from the Russian Federation and entrance to the Russian Federation" dated 15 August 1996, reference number 114-FL, citizens of the Russian Federation should verify this by valid documents proving the identity of such Russian citizens beyond the territory of the Russian Federation.

Russian Law regulations of entry state that this applies to citizens of the Russian Federation who also hold other citizenship. Therefore, to enter the territory of Russia, they must use only their own Russian passports. With regards to renewing Russian passports, Russian citizens are advised to contact the Consular department of the Russian Embassy in United Arab Emirates.

In view of the changes to the Federal Law "On the procedure of entering and leaving the Russia Federation" of 15 August 1996 No. 114-FL effective from 12 March 2010,  applications will be accepted from citizens of the Russian Federation lawfully staying in the UAE, to issue visas for members of their families who are foreign nationals (spouses, children under the age of 18, incapacitated children of any age) to enable them to enter the territory of the Russian Federation accompanied by the citizen of the Russia Federation who signed the visa request form. Applications can only be submitted in person at the Russian Visa Application Centre for the issuance of a single entry/double entry private visa effective for up to 3 months. The minimum time for processing such applications is 5 working days. 

Why Visa to Russia?

We know that visa processing can turn to be difficult and time consuming. We understand how important it is for a client to obtain correct and up to date information. We also take care of our clients and try to provide excellent service. Once we receive your online visa application for Russia, you will immediately be provided with quick and professional support. Our friendly staff will consult you on-the-fly on all visa issues.




Frequently Asked Questions

Do you help with families/children and special nationalities?

Yes—each traveler (including minors) needs their own application or e-Visa. We prepare family packs with consent letters, birth certificates where required, and aligned itineraries so decisions don’t split. For e-Visas, insurance covering Russia is required; we arrange compliant policies for every traveler.

For nationalities that face stricter documentation, we’ll strengthen the file (e.g., hotel confirmations or tourist support in the correct format) and brief you on any centre-specific checks we’ve seen in Dubai.

How do I apply for a Russia tourist visa from Dubai?

We manage the process end-to-end: we complete your forms, assemble the file, book your appointment, and submit your application on your behalf at the official Russian Visa Centre in Dubai. You just share your passport scan and travel dates; we prepare everything exactly to consular standards so the file is accepted the first time.

For convenience, we offer free pick-up & drop for clients in nearby Dubai districts (a small logistics fee applies for farther locations), and we can take compliant passport photos in our office before submission. If you’re unsure whether you need an e-Visa or a regular sticker visa, we’ll advise the best route for your itinerary and passport.

I’m a visitor/non-resident—can I apply in Dubai or is it only for UAE residents?

Yes, you can apply in Dubai even if you’re not a UAE national. The visa centre accepts applications from non-UAE citizens who can prove legal stay in the UAE (e.g., residence visa or valid entry status). We’ll check your status and include the exact proof the centre requests.

If your stay in the UAE is very short, we’ll assess whether Dubai is still the fastest option or if it’s smarter to apply where you live. Either way, we’ll prepare the file and submit on your behalf so you don’t chase paperwork.

I’m traveling for meetings—do I need a business invitation or TELEX?

For a business visa, you generally need an official invitation from Russia (e.g., Migration authorities or an MFA TELEX sent directly to the consulate). We coordinate with your host to issue the correct format and match your requested validity (single, double, or multiple entry).

If your trip is short and simple, the e-Visa may be enough (no invitation needed). We’ll compare both options against your agenda and submit the route that gets you traveling with minimum friction.

Is there a Russia e-Visa—and who should use it?

Yes. Russia’s Unified e-Visa is single-entry, valid 60 days, and allows a maximum stay of 16 days. It’s filed 40–4 days before travel and is processed in up to 4 calendar days. Critically, no invitation letter or hotel booking is required for the e-Visa; we handle the online application, timing, and required travel medical insurance for you.

We’ll confirm your eligibility and match the e-Visa to your exact entry point and dates. If your plan needs more than 16 days, multiple entries, or specific business activities, we’ll steer you to the appropriate regular (sticker) visa instead and submit it for you.

What documents do I need for a regular tourist visa from Dubai?

For a sticker tourist visa, the consulate expects the online application (visa.kdmid.ru), a valid passport and photo, and an appointment; many applicants also need tourist support (voucher/confirmation) issued by a registered Russian tour operator or hotel. We source compliant tourist support if you don’t have it and place documents in the exact order required.

Your core set with us is simple: passport (6+ months validity), photo (we can shoot this in our office), UAE status proof (residents or visitors), itinerary, and insurance. We submit on your behalf at the Dubai visa centre and track the file to passport return

I’m a UAE passport holder—do I need a Russian visa?

UAE citizens can visit visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period under the bilateral agreement in force since 17 February 2019 (not valid for work/study). We’ll still arrange flights, hotels, and insurance, and brief you on border formalities.

If your purpose is beyond visa-free limits (work, study, long stay), you’ll need the appropriate visa. Share your purpose and dates and we’ll prepare and submit the right application.

What exactly will Green Apple do for me—and how do we start?

We collect your documents (pick-up included for nearby Dubai areas), take photos if needed, prepare forms, secure your appointment, arrange tourist support or business invitations, and submit your application on your behalf at the Russian Visa Centre. You’ll receive proactive updates until passport delivery.

To kick off, send your passport scan, UAE status (residence or entry), planned dates/cities, and purpose (tourist/business). We’ll confirm e-Visa vs. regular visa, share your tailored checklist, and book the earliest viable slot—then handle the rest.

What are realistic processing timelines—and can you handle urgent cases?

Officially, e-Visas are processed within 4 calendar days after submission. Regular (sticker) visas vary by category, season, and completeness of documents; we’ll confirm current Dubai timelines when we book your slot and structure your file to avoid “return for corrections” delays.

For time-sensitive trips, we build your case the same day, submit on your behalf, and monitor status closely. If an interview, extra documents, or a different consular route will be faster for your passport, we’ll pivot and do it.

    My girlfriend is taking me to see her family in St Petersburg. The relationship has reached that stage. But the Russian evisa system is not working properly even though my country is on the list. It kept saying that my passport number should not begin with the letter V, but that’s what it is. Passport issued by Indian consulate in Dubai. Given the problematic situation in that region, I thought to go sooner rather than later and my girlfriend also had to go and close up some stuff back home. I searched on google and found Green Apple. My girlfriend also contacted her visa agent. I messaged Sajjad on WhatsApp from the website. He respond to my request immediately. He gave me the exact requirements, which were much simpler than what I was told by my girlfriend’s visa agent. They just wanted my passport with uae visa stamp at least 3 months validity and a photo. The price was also lower than what I was quoted by the other competitor. Sajjad sent his guy to collect my passport the same day. I booked our flights straight away on emirates. I received my visa reliably and quickly delivered to my doorstep in one week, as promised. I paid cash and never had to step out or worry about a thing. Flying out next week. Hope things go well.

    Google needs to update their review system for this company, 5 stars is too less for their service. From moment 1 that I contacted this company I was amazed by their customer centric approach. Ali, our agent, was helpful in every step. Also they were able to do things that I couldn't do myself in the embassy. Less than 5 days we received the Russian visa. And this without any action from our side. They came and pickup the passports, filled in all documents and when it was completed they brought the passports back to our home. Really Ali I can't say how much I want to thank you.
