russian bureaucracy!!!!!
russian visa issues are beginning to pi$$ me off!
The visa agencies say that the best type of visa i should get is the 6 month business visa which will allow me to be in russia for 90 days over 6 months & I can enter/exit as many times as I like. I agree that that's best. I aplied on line - filled in all my details (included a jpeg of my passport and gave them a friend's credit card details - believe it or not I have finance issues). They responded saying that 1. I didn't give them credit card info (funny becuase I DID!) 2. That they didn't receive the passport info (I definitely sent it), 3. They could only process it upto 45 days before I leave 4. They can't process it without an old tourist visa for when I was last in the country (I'VE NEVER BEEN TO RUSSIA) The only solution I see is a 30 day tourist visa that will enable me to cross russia to get to Kazakshtan, THEN applying in Kaz for a 3 month russia multi-visa. If I don't get it i'm royally buggered as I won't be able to leave Kaz - so if my Kaz visa expires (which it will if I can't leave the country) I'm straight to prison as a spy or similar. That's it, I'm spending 6 momth's at butlins in Blackpool. |
