VISA

At the moment, citizens of many countries need a visa to enter Russia. There are many tourist agencies in every country readily selling tourist visas to Russia. There is also a possibility to apply for a visa invitation via the Euler Institute. The webpage http://www.pdmi.ras.ru/EIMI/2006/mlm/visa.html is devoted to the visa procedure for participants of our conference. Please note that it may take some time to obtain a visa. Thus, we strongly recommend that you apply at least 2 months in advance.

--> Looking forward to seeing you in St.Petersburg.
