Common Reasons for Visa Rejection

Russia e-Visa refusals can be avoided — careful documentation is the key to approval

Passport Validity Too Short

Russia requires your passport to be valid for at least 6 months beyond your intended departure date. Expired, damaged, or heavily stamped passports are rejected at the border.

Non-compliant Photo

White background, full face, no glasses or shadows, taken within 3 months. The Russia e-Visa portal has strict photo standards — selfies and phone photos are automatically rejected.

Physical Printout Missing

Russia requires a printed physical copy of your e-Visa. Arriving with only a digital version on your phone is not accepted and may result in denial of entry.

Prior Russian Immigration Issues

A prior overstay, deportation or visa denial in Russia significantly reduces approval chances and may result in a travel ban.

Applied Too Close to Travel

Russia e-Visa takes 4–7 business days. Applying less than 10 days before departure risks not receiving your visa in time. Plan well in advance.
