сколько надо купить ?
i was just checkin the visas, looks like they wern't as bad as i thought... 30 days for a tourist visa is more than enough... for now. But, what if you like life in russia ? what if i get a job, and plan on stying for awhile ? i could probly get a business visa, but when they expire do you have to keep buying them ? how long do you have to live in russia to become a duel citizen ? or is it even possible ? let's just say it takes 5 years living there. Do u have to just keep buying visas for 5 years?

My American friends that live there (have lived there for several years) have to leave ever 3 months to renew their visa. They say it's not so bad though, they just go on vacation to Finland or Germany, get new visas, and go back to Russia.

Indeed the bog standard business visa is 3 months. But, at least until recently, it was relatively easy to get 12 month business visas (150-200$? don't know exactly). I knew a couple of people doing that. Recently (this year) the bureaucracy seems to have got tougher. I don't know the exact implications.
I had a 3 month business visa extended by my employer for another 6 months, but it wasn't pretty, believe me. Don't try to get visas extended unless you know what you're doing.
