What this means for your trip
For an ordinary Burkina Faso passport, the working assumption is a regular Russian visa. Tourism normally uses confirmation from a registered tour operator. For citizens covered by Government list 372-r, a qualifying booking confirmation from classified accommodation can be an alternative. Business, private, work and study travel use different invitation channels. The responsible mission or visa centre decides its local checklist and receives the application.
