Is it possible to get multiple entry visa for 5 or 6 months? I've gotten one for 3 months, single entry, but this time I'm going to go in and out of Russia over about 5 months. Is this possible, or will I have to get two separate visas?

Looks like it's possible for business purposes only. Check it here http://www.russia-visa.com/russian_visa_fees.php
And this is a more detailed link http://www.waytorussia.net/RussianVisa/Types.html
Yay!! Your second link explained exactly what I was looking for! I cross-checked it with the embassy's website, and I think it's gonna work. 8) 8)
Do you plan to go on business or as a tourist?
Maybe she is going as a spy for the US government.Quote:

I've actually gotten both tourist and business visas in the past. So, I could easily go as either.
Is it possible to apply for a spy visa?
It's funny because I can't tell if it's a joke. :lol:
It was a joke. I wouldn't make a very good spy anyway...better stick to business and tourism.
There is actually such a thing as a diplomatic visa 8) 8)
But $$ won't get you one of those, sadly.
Yeah, and then they know you're there as a spy and your cover is ruined.
But you'll have diplomatic immunity. You'll be invincable.
Tim.
Invincible to law-abiding people.
Nobody's invincible from being sniped by a specnats team while they're alseep in bed at 3:00 am. Except tourists.
As an American, I feel confident in stating that the United States doesn't need spies in Russia. Since the fall of Communism, Russia and the United States have become good friends. I think this is because Russia is no longer an imminent threat.Quote:

Well true, there is still a nuclear capability here. But, also, control of the Caspian region is no small deal - amongst other things. Geopolitically Russia is a very big deal. It'd hardly be wise for the US to ignore it. They already have troops crawling all over central Asia (to deal with the 'terrorists' dontchaknow).
Who knows what the CIA is doing just a little south of here, around Georgia, Chechnya and all that stuff.
Typical example of a conspiracy theory you could throw around: anyone notice what's happened to the local leader in Ajaria just now, when they're constructing that big f-off pipeline to Batumi? Maybe he was seen as 'not playing ball' with the US via their puppet in Tbilisi, and certain things were 'engineered'?
[btw this is not an 'opinion', more an example of a possibility..]
Little naive, no? Remember Robert Hanssen? If they're still spying on you, you're doubtless still spying on them. As for 'friends', that's much more than a little naive: it's hilarious. Oh how I laughed.Quote:
