Visa support for Representative Offices and Branches of foreign companies.

The only legal type of visa for foreigners working in RepOffices or Branches of foreign companies is a ?Foreign RepOffice employee? visa (?inosotrudnik? visa).

This visa is obtained only through the authority that accredited the RepOffice or registered the Branch. It means that the inviting party should be the accreditation authority, not some Russian commercial organization. Foreign employees working in Russia on a basis of a business visa break Russian legislation. The worst sanction for this breach is deportation.

    Visa support for Russian legal entities

    The only legal type of visa for foreigners working in Russian legal entities is a work visa, which is issued only on the basis of a work permit. It is absolutely essential that the Employer-Company named in the work permit of the foreign citizen should be the inviting company named in the visa. Working in Russia on a basis of a business visa issued by some Russian commercial organization that is not the Employer is a breach of Russian legislation. The worst sanction for this breach is deportation.

    The following services are included in VFBS visa support package for legal entities:
  • registration of the company in Passport and Visa Department (PVU GUVD) of Moscow
