There's nothing complicated with getting the Russian visa. We have a travel meeting in Oulu (both in the University and OAMK) on 6th of November for collecting the required visa documents. Tour operator will take care of the visa processing in the Russian consulate. You can attend any of the meetings listed below:
*For the travel meeting please bring the following documents: *
1. Passport in original. /PLEASE NOTE! a) Passport should be valid at least for 6 months after the trip. b) there should be at least one double page free c) no torn pages or pages falling apart/ 2. Completed visa application form http://www.aikamatkat.fi/stuff/docs/visaguide.pdf (pdf) /You can also get a copy of the visa form and fill it in at the meeting/ 3. One passport-sized picture to be attached to the visa form /(colored or black and white, no special size e.g. requirements)/ 4. A copy of your travel insurance policy or card, if you have one of your own (which is valid in Russia). Travel insurance is mandatory for getting the Russian visa!
After submitting the documents, they will be delivered to the Russian consulate for the whole processing period and you will get the passport with the Russian visa on the morning of departure in the bus! If the travel meeting date, time or place does not suit you, you can leave the documents to your friends, to ESN-members or send them directly to the tour operator by post. See the visa guide http://www.aikamatkat.fi/stuff/docs/visaguide.pdf for instructions.
