Make Your Own visa applications

If you do not want to make advantage of our visa services, you can obtain your own visas. Some embassies also offer a postal visa service. Check with your nearest consulate for more details.

Russian Visa

Once we have received a deposit payment we will send the Russian Visa Support so you can make the application at your local embassy. We charge € 20 for the Russian visa support sent to you as an email attachment. You will need to complete the application and attach a copy our visa support to each application. More info on the Russian Visa

Original Documents

Russian Embassies in Hanoi, Delhi, Kathmandu (as well Beijing) can be particulary difficult to deal with if you do not have the original documents. If the embassy asks for originals consider making the application elsewhere, or ask us to send them to you from Moscow. The cost by DHL will be around € 70 depending where you are and how quickly you need them.

Mongolian Visa

The Mongolian visa is normally straightforward to obtain and you do not normally require any supporting paperwork for the tourist visa application. If you do need any documents we can supply the official invitation for € 15. More info on the Mongolian Visa

Chinese Visa

The Chinese Visa is also easy to arrange in most embassies around the world. If you are visiting Hong Kong our office there can help you with the arragements. You shouldn't need any supporting documents for a standard 30 day toursit visa. If you do need an invitation, we can supply the documents as an email for € 15 per person.

Apply yourself in London

Applying for visas in the UK is fairly straight-forward using a postal service. The Russian Embassy in London offer a postal visa service through their official agency VFS Global. If you apply in person, the Russian Embassy is always very busy, especially in the summer and the queues to gain entry start very early in the morning - there are some small agents across the street that offer a visa service - for a price

The Chinese Embassy in London also offers a postal visa service through their official site - Chinese Visa Application Service Center. If you apply in person, there are always queues at the Chinese Embassy in Portland road, so be there early

The Mongolian Embassy in High Street Kensington is very friendly and they can often accept the visa application more than three months ahead which is quite useful if you will be travelling elsewhere before starting your trans-siberian trip. The Mongolian Embassy do not offer a postal visa service, but recommend using a local visa agency called CIBT if you do not want to travel to the Embassy in person.
