The Russian consulate has announced that the technical problems have been resolved and that the usual processing times will now apply again.
The Russian consulate informs that there may currently be delays of up to EIGHT days in processing due to technical problems; this applies to applications submitted to the consulate since 27.06.2018.
IMPORTANT: This affects EXCLUSIVELY business visas with company invitation and humanitarian visas – regardless of whether express or normal processing. Business visas with an official invitation (FMS, electronic FMS, telex) and tourist visas are NOT affected by this delay.
In observance of Eid El-Fitr holidays, the Embassy of Saudi Arabia will be closed from June 15, 2018 until Friday, June 22, 2018 inclusive.
