hi waytorussia,

my name is seth and i am planning a visit to baikal to stay with family in late februrary. as it is now, i have my plane tickets and i need to get the a business visa for my intended length of stay. i read on your sight that it is possible for a person to get a business visa if he/she is traveling on personal matters but i looked at the request form for an invitation and i am requird to state business information. is it still possible to get this typr of visa? and what should i type in that area so the processing length won't be delayed?

also, my itinerary shows that i fly into moscow on the 21st of Feb and i return to the states from london in june. i plan to travel the distance by train, and i would prefer to buy the tickets when i arrive in moscow. will my itinerary be sufficient proof of me traveling onward or will my invitation request be denied?

thanks for any answers you can give me and for all the information your site has already given me.

hey thanks for the quick reply,

but maybe you misread my question. will be traveling through russia on personal matters and not on behalf of a company or university. and i want to obtain a business visa. do you suggest i just mark the company i am working for now?
