Russian visas again

[Renee Stillings]

Also our agent confirms (based on comments from their SF office) that the
consulate is taking clear scans of this "letter" - original not needed.

Dear Colleagues,
I just learned this morning of new requirements for short term student visas
to Russia that might affect some of you. In addition to the invitation and
HIV certificate, you now need:

"Original or copy of the letter from Russian University,  Institute or
College confirming that applicant is traveling for short term study for the
period of up to three months.
Original or copy of applicant's current diploma, educational certificate or
official transcript  from his\her university\college.
Cover letter specifying purpose of visit, dates of arrival and departure,
cities to be visited in Russia and telephone or facsimile number where you
can be reached."

Regards,
Jane Hacking
