Attention (including and excluding)

Visa support: we arrange the invitation letter for the visa. Without this invitation you can not apply for a Russian visa. The visa itself you will need to apply at the Russian consulate or embassy in your country. The visa processing fee at the consulate (in most European countries about 35 euro) is not included in our course fee. After arrival in Russia, your visa needs to be registered by law at the migration service. This registration is included in the course price.

Travel expenses: not included in the course price. Many European airlines have direct connections on St. Petersburg. In general you have the option to fly with the airline of your country and the Petersburg airline "Rossiya Airlines". If you live in Scandinvia or Eastern Europe you might consider a bus or train trip. Be aware that if you need to pass Belarus, you will need an extra transit visa for this country.
