Landing in Moscow for a week of negotiations rarely leaves time to spare on drawn-out embassy visits, which is exactly the problem this category solves. Executives, negotiators, and corporate representatives attending meetings, conferences, or trade events in Russia typically rely on the Russia Business eVisa, a category built specifically around short-term commercial travel rather than tourism or general leisure.
Submission stays limited to two items: a clear scan of the passport bio page, with the photograph and machine-readable zone fully visible, alongside a recent high-resolution photo free of reflections or filters. Once approved, coverage includes a single entry, validity spanning 120 days from issue, and stays permitted up to 30 days.
Extensions aren’t available here. Anyone requiring a second business trip needs to file an entirely fresh application rather than relying on the original document. It’s also worth noting this category doesn’t cover paid employment, long-term operations, or permanent relocation, purposes that call for a different route entirely through Russian authorities.
