Multi Entry Business Visa

Looking on various websites it seems that you can not apply for a 1 year multi entry visa unless you have previously had a Russian visa?

Does anyone know if this is definitely the case? We only need 2 entries but we will be on the road for several months before we reach the russian border. Apparently you can only start the visa application (have the LOI issued) 45 days before your date of first entry which is cutting it to fine for us.

Thanks for your help!!

Different nationality, different rules...

And up to 90 days in the previous 180.

Worth adding here ... since I recently put in for a new business visa. The visa applications are (as of November) requiring a short autobiography, in Russian, and computer printed, to go with the business visa applications.

Walter. Is your Russian visa in your Aussie passport?

I'm currently dealing with Stantours for my Russian ME Business visa. I asked David about your experience. This is his response...

"They started insisting on NOTARISED autobiographies, in Russian for Aussies for multi entry visa, I hope no such rule for Brits, yet"
