Russian visa for Algerian citizens (passport holders)

Contrary to what the informations seen on many websites providing invitation and visa support for the russian visa, the conditions for obtaining a Russian visa are no different for Algerian citizens. Note that some travel agencies specializing in sending invitations tourist are not accredited for sending invitation to Algerian passport holders (most of the travel agency). Algerians citizen who want to get a tourist or business visa for Russia must meet prerequisites like having a valid passport and valid for at least 3 weeks after the expiration date of the visa Russian. In addition, they must obtain an official invitation as any European national or North American. Algerian nationals can obtain a Russian invitation "voucher" through several websites. Note however that some sites like www.russie-tourisme.com does not issue official letter for the visa, saying that Algeria is on Black List like many other African countries. However, Russian authorities in place in Algiers denied this information spread by many website. We invite Algerian nationals to purchase their invitation letter with an accredited agency and calling the Russian embassy in Alger to have the latest information on visa application.

Documents to submit with your application in order to obtain a simple tourist visa:

• Original Passport: While many Russian embassy or consulate requires a minimum of 6 months validity after the visa expires, the Russian Embassy in Algiers differs.

Since this norm is specific to Algerian passport holder, we highly recommend to check directly with the Russian Embassy in Algiers to make sure it does not change.
