Russia: other modelled ordinary foreign passports require a regular visa
For these nationalities, the current MFA country table states either visas for all passports or only a non-ordinary waiver and does not provide the unified e-visa. The MFA's general rule therefore requires a regular visa.
- This is the ordinary foreign-passport short-visitor baseline. Diplomatic, official, service, special, crew, accredited-staff, APEC-card, group-tour, invitation, local-border and other stated exceptions are not passport-wide access.
- A regular visa is obtained through a Russian diplomatic mission or consular post at the person's place of permanent residence. Visa type, invitation, validity, document recognition, purpose, registration and admission requirements remain case-specific.
