On March 28, the Consular Section of the Russian Embassy in Ashgabat announced that the issuance of all categories of visas to Russia for citizens of Turkmenistan, as well as citizens of third countries with a residence permit in Turkmenistan, is being resumed.
From March 28, applicants can sign up on the pre-registration site q.midpass.ru for the service "Acceptance of documents for obtaining a visa to the Russian Federation" on the "waiting list" for subsequent automatic assignment of the date and time of admission.
It is emphasized that only one entry in the "waiting list" is available for each visitor; duplicate applications will be automatically deleted by the system.
“Please note that the presence of a visa to Russia does not cancel the need to obtain an appropriate permit to leave Turkmenistan from its competent authorities,” the news says.
