You should start your visa application at least 4 or 6 weeks prior to your travel time. This gives room to invitation letter processing, document preparation and booking of appointments at the Russian Visa Application Centre in Dubai or Abu Dhabi and this is particularly during high seasons.
Unlike the US visa, Russian visiting visas typically do not require an in-person interview. The submission process at the Visa Application Centre in Dubai or Abu Dhabi usually takes 15-30 minutes, depending on document verification.
No, travel medical insurance is not needed when getting a visa to Russia from UAE. It must be a comprehensive package that will cover all your days in Russia and it should contain basic medical and emergency cover. Go Kite Travel can do this on your behalf.
After the application is sent, it is handled at the Russian Federation Consulate in Dubai. It is possible to follow the progress online or through Go Kite Travel. Once this has been approved you will be notified to collect your passport with the stamp of the visa.
Your passport should have a minimum of six months of validity in Russia as opposed to your intended visit. You will be denied with a passport which has expired or is about to expire. Renew your passport first then apply.
