Do I need a transit travel Visa for Moscow?
I'm an American citizen. I will be transiting/connecting from Moscow to Uralsk Kazakhstan, coming from Los Angeles. Please Help. Thanks
Answer:
Transit Through Russia: Travelers transiting through Russia en route to a third country should be aware that a Russian transit visa is normally required. Even travelers who are simply changing planes in Moscow or another international airport in Russia for an onward destination will be asked to present a transit visa issued by a Russian Embassy or Consulate. Russian authorities may refuse to allow a U.S.citizen who does not have a transit visa to continue with his or her travel, obliging the person to immediately return to the point of embarkation.
