Russia Issued More Than 821,000 Electronic Visas in 2025
Russia issued over 821,000 unified electronic visas during 2025, according to published figures.
Russia's unified electronic visa is applied for online and is valid at designated entry points rather than at every crossing.
Published figures put issuance above 821,000 for 2025, giving a measure of how heavily the system is used since it replaced consular processing for eligible nationalities.
Volume figures are one of the few public indicators of whether a digital entry system is actually carrying traffic. EntryCheck lists Russia's official portal and verifies it daily.
