Can I apply for an extension of my Russian visa?

Under normal circumstances, Russian tourist and business visas cannot be extended, but only under special circumstances, such as diseases, accidents and natural disasters. The work visa can be renewed by the company, and the study visa can be renewed by the school, and the extension procedures are complicated, so try to avoid visa extension.

Therefore, for holders of Russian tourist visas and business visas, it is necessary to master the length of stay, so as to avoid overstaying and deliberately staying illegally, because the punishment in this respect in Russia is more serious. According to the relevant provisions of the federal law N 114-Фз "Regulations on the Administration of Entering and Leaving Russia", those who continue to stay in Russia for more than 27 days after the temporary stay period stipulated by the federal law are prohibited from entering Russia within 1 years from the date of departure.

if the applicant arrives in Russia for private reasons and intends to stay in the country after the expiration of the Russian visa, the applicant should hold his passport and visa and certificates related to the extension before the expiration of the visa, and go to the local foreigner management authority to apply for the visa extension. However, not all visa extensions will be approved. If they are not approved, they should leave the country in time, otherwise they will be punished by the country.
