Please continue to check our website for additional information, and contact your nearest Russian Embassy or Consulate General about specific requirements for visa applications.

Appointment System for American Citizen Services

Services for Americans are now by appointment only.  Embassy Moscow's online appointment system allows you to make, change or cancel appointments.  Once your appointment is made, you can print a confirmation page, and we will send you an e-mail reminder with instructions for your appointment at the Embassy.

While walk-in service requests will no longer be accepted, we do not require appointments for emergencies.  If you are a U.S. citizen with an emergency, please call (495) 728 - 5577.  After hours, call (495) 728 - 5000 and ask to speak to the duty officer.  Emergency services for American citizens are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
