It will reopen on the 11th. I will be out of the office Jan 10-14 but there will be Jamilia who can take care of you. OR if you want, you can bring me the paperwork Jan 17 and your visas will be ready Jan 20. I will need from each of you: 1. Valid US passport (make sure there is at least 1 blank visa page in it) 2. 1 passport-size picture 3. 1 application form (http://www.russia- travel.com/userfiles/file/ank4us.pdf) 4. $320 per visa. If you want I can proceed with getting your business visas since it takes 2 weeks to get an invitation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. OR if your next trip to Russia won't be in the near future, we can wait till you come back from Europe and start the process then. Thank you. Happy Holidays!

We would like to apply for a tourist visa good from Jan.25-Feb. 25th. How long does this take to process? I can bring in whatever you need on Monday the 3rd. We will then proceed with the business visas after we return with our upcoming trip to Europe and Russia What do you require for the tourist visa?

I will let him know the options. How long does it take to get a double entry 3 month business visa? On Dec 29, 2010, at 10:41 AM, wrote: The general rule is that US citizens should apply in the USA. If they apply in other countries, everything will depend on the Consulate and how they will see it. There is definitely no guarantee you will be able to get your visas there. Do you need to travel to Russia on those dates you specified or it can be moved? You have several options: 1. Do a multiple-entry and move your trip to Russia. 2. Do a tourist visa for now and get your multiple-entry once you are back from your first trip to Russia for your future trips there. 3. Do a double-entry 3-month business visas. Please advise. If you want, we can discuss the situation over the phone. Thank you. Anastasia Novikova EFTA00534322
