US passport holders need a visa to enter Russia. Apply through the Russian embassy or consulate in the US or through an authorized visa agency. A tourist visa requires an invitation letter (voucher) from a Russian travel agency or hotel, a completed application form, a passport-sized photo, and a valid passport with at least 6 months validity beyond the visa expiration date and at least 2 blank pages. The single-entry tourist visa allows stays up to 30 days and costs $160 for US citizens. Processing takes 4 to 20 working days depending on the service tier selected.
Russia introduced an eVisa in 2023 for citizens of certain countries, but US citizens are not eligible for the eVisa and must apply through the traditional consular process. At Sheremetyevo (SVO), Domodedovo (DMO), or Pulkovo (LED), immigration scans your visa and stamps your passport. Keep your migration card (issued at the border) until departure. Register with local authorities within 7 working days of arrival; hotels handle this automatically for their guests.
