Migration registration rules for visa countries

General information

Every foreign citizen, upon entering the territory of the Russian Federation, is obliged to obtain and fill out a migration card.

 
The migration card is filled in personally by a foreign citizen (legibly, without corrections, in Russian). The purpose of entry for foreign students: “study”.

 
Upon arrival in the territory of the Russian Federation, a foreign student is required to register at the place of stay within 7 days from the date of arrival.

 
The registration of a foreign citizen is canceled when leaving the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as when traveling through the territory of the Russian Federation by air, checking into a hotel or hostel, undergoing inpatient treatment in a hospital. Therefore, upon returning to the hostel of the USLU named after V.F. Yakovlev, a foreign citizen must re-register.

 
A visa is a permit to enter the Russian Federation with a valid identity document of a foreign citizen.

The invitation is the basis for issuing a visa to a foreign citizen to enter the Russian Federation.

To obtain a visa, a foreign citizen must bring a short printed form of an electronic invitation or an original paper invitation to the Russian House. In this case, a single-entry visa is issued to a foreign citizen for up to three months. During this period, it is necessary to enter the territory of the Russian Federation and begin the process of obtaining a multiple-entry visa, which is issued for up to one year.

Registration and extension of the period of stay of foreign students in the territory of the Russian Federation is carried out by the International Cooperation Department of the USLU named after V.F. Yakovlev (hereinafter – ICD).
