Visa reference numbers (Sept 26)

You will need to provide this number when applying for your entry visa at the Russian consulate or embassy in the country where you live starting From the date indicated in the document above. Your visa reference number will allow you to apply for your study visa under a simplified procedure.  

We expect more reference numbers to be ready by mid-August; however, unexpected delays with processing may occur. We recommend that you wait until you have your reference number to book your flight to Moscow or buy flexible plane tickets.
