Tourist visa is an option for short-term (up to 30 days) single entry visits. As an exception, Russian double-entry tourist visa can be issued only for trips from Russia to some neighboring country and back (e.g. CIS or Baltic countries).

Tourist visa can be extended only in exceptional cases. We recommend keeping in mind your visa expiry date to avoid any complications upon departure from Russia. Please note that some Consulates may request the original 
tourist vouchers.
