Registration Of Russian Visas
According to Russian law, your Russian visa must be registered within 72 hours upon your arrival (excluding weekends and official holidays).
Depending on where you have your visa registered, the registration stamp will look different (on the picture above a hotel registration is shown). Generally, a tourist visa is the easiest to register; some restrictions apply to a business or a private visa.
1. If you are staying at a hotel: the hotel will register your visa. You will be asked of your visa and passport. A small registration fee can be imposed.
2. If you are not staying at a hotel in Saint-Petersburg: we can help you with registration (extra charge, check tariffs here). You should bring your passport and migration card in our office within 2 days upon your arrival. If you come before 12 a.m. your registration will be ready the same day after 5 p.m. In other cases your registration will be ready on next business day after 5 p.m.
3. If your final destination is not St. Petersburg and you are not staying at a hotel, you will need to register your visa with a local UVIR or contact our office and we will give you advice who might help you with this problem.
Multiple entry business visas for 1 year are registered for 3 months only. Foreign citizens with 1-year business visas will have to leave Russia after the first 3 months spent in the country. Registration is to be renewed after foreign citizens reenter Russia. (Note: Moscow is exception. It is still possible to make registration for 6 months).
Please note that not registering your Russian visa may lead to serious problems: detention by police, fines on departure, prevention from boarding the plane, etc. We strongly advise you to register your Russian visa to avoid possible unnecessary inconveniences.
