Thai passport holders enter Russia visa-free for up to 30 days under a bilateral visa exemption agreement between Thailand and Russia. No advance application is needed. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry. You receive a stamp and a migration card at immigration. Keep the migration card (a small paper slip) until departure, as you surrender it when leaving Russia.
The 30-day visa-free stay covers tourism and short business visits. For stays beyond 30 days, apply for a tourist visa at the Russian Embassy in Bangkok before departure. Russia also offers an e-visa for certain entry points covering up to 16 days for $40, applied for at electronic-visa.kdmid.ru, but the bilateral visa-free arrangement gives Thai nationals a longer 30-day stay without any application.
