Russian visas/invitations

[Emily Saunders]

A friend of mine recently did something similar for a trip to SPB.   
She got her visa (and likely visa processing) through  
PassportVisasExpress.com who are located in Washington D.C.  She said  
it worked fine though I do not know the details of how the  
registration was handled.  I have done visa processing (more than just  
Russian) with them in the past and have been pleased with their service.
