What is an Immigration Card?





Foreigners are obliged to fill in the immigration card which will be given to them when they enter Russia. The immigration card is not complicated. It is important to fill in the name of the inviting company (written in Russian on the visa) and the address of the inviting company.

The Customs official takes one part of this card at the passport control, and the other part should be kept till the moment of departure and should be handed over to immigration officials on the border when leaving the country. It’s important to have the immigration card for visa registration!

The student should bring the part of immigration card to the Institute (in case he/she got the invitation letter from the Institute) to register the visa.
