Visa Registration

Obtaining a student visa for Russia to study at Saratov State Medical University (SSMU) involves multiple steps and fees. The process starts with applying for the visa in your home country and ends with mandatory registration once you arrive in Russia.


Visa Application and Fees

To apply for a student visa to study at Saratov State Medical University, you will need to go through the Russian Embassy, Consulate, or an authorized visa center in your country. Here’s what you should know about the fees:

  • Consular Fee: This is the main visa fee paid to the Russian government. For Indian students, a single-entry student visa usually costs between INR 5,000 to INR 8,000 (about $60 to $100). The price can change depending on exchange rates and your nationality.

  • Visa Center Service Fee: If you apply through a visa center like VFS Global, there will be an extra service charge of around $38 (about INR 3,100).

  • HIV Test Certificate: You must submit a negative HIV test report for a long-term student visa. The cost of this test is separate and varies by clinic.

  • Expedited Processing: If you need your visa faster, you can pay extra for expedited service.

  • Other Costs: You might also have to pay for things like notarizing documents, biometric photos, or courier services to send your passport and papers.

Visa Registration After Arrival

When you arrive in Russia, you must complete a migration registration to legally stay in the country.

  • Migration Card: At the airport, you’ll get a Migration Card from the border officer. Keep this card safe because you’ll need it for registration and future visa renewals.

  • Registration Fee: The fee for migration registration and visa extension is about 1,600 Russian Rubles (around $18). If you live in a university dorm, the university’s international office usually takes care of this for you. If you live in a private apartment, your landlord must register you with the local authorities.

  • Visa Extension: Your student visa is valid for 90 days at first. The university will help you extend it for the whole academic year, usually through their international department.
