Emergency Response Centre made a decision on November 28 to restrict entry to the Russian Federation for citizens from a number of African states, including South Africa, as well as from Hong Kong.

Due to rising questions, we would like to inform you

Within the framework of the presentation of Russian regions we are happy to introduce the Chechen Republic to our dear visitors. The exposition stand in the Consular Section provides information on the nature of this region, its main tourist attractions, national cuisine and traditions etc.

Due to multiple requests on how to receive a QR-code in Russia on the basis of being fully vaccinated by foreign vaccines, including the British ones, we would like to draw your attention that the data on foreign vaccines cannot be uploaded on the website Gosuslugi and, thus, do not give the right for a QR-code.

Dear visitors! Please be informed that the Consular Section of the Embassy of Russia will be closed on 4 and 5 November for a national holiday.

The list of countries, from which it is possible to travel to Russia, has been extended.

Due to multiple requests we would like to remind

Within the framework of the presentation of Russian regions we would like to bring to the attention of our visitors an information stand on the Republic of Bashkortostan.

Applying for a single-, double- or multiple-entry private visa to close relatives of minor Russian nationals is possible upon the submission of an application form of one of the parents (Russian national) on behalf of the child.
