Consulate General of the Russian Federation in Dubai

• Obtaining a Russian visa: A letter of introduction/invitation (LOI) might be required. Check before obtaining one online, the Russian Consulate in Dubai might require the original, not a printout. Safer option might be to go through a travel agent. The website for the Russian Consulate in Dubai appears to indicate an LOI is not needed for a 30 day tourist visa (required documents are passport, photo, health insurance, round-trip ticket, travel voucher) so maybe a hotel booking confirmation is sufficient, or maybe not. Check with the consulate directly (Abu Dhabi embassy website says an invitation is required).
