In a significant step towards strengthening bilateral ties and boosting tourism, Russia is all set to launch Electronic Visa (e-visa) facilities for Indian passport holders, starting August 1. This move aims to facilitate smoother and more convenient visa application processes for Indian travelers, fostering an enriching travel experience between the two nations. With the introduction of the e-visa system, Indian tourists will now have the opportunity to apply for their Russian visa with greater ease and efficiency. The development is expected to pave the way for increased travel and tourism exchanges, fostering closer cultural and economic ties between India and Russia. As per an official statement released by Russia's Foreign Ministry, the e-visa facility will not be exclusive to Indian travelers. Citizens of approximately 52 different countries will also benefit from the convenience of the electronic visa.
