→ Russia visa for Maltese citizens
Malta passport holders can now enter Russia with a convenient e-visa, allowing for stays of up to 30 days, a significant update since its introduction. While Russia offers several e-visa types, including tourist and business options, the "other" category often suits those with unique travel purposes. When planning your 30-day adventure, remember to factor in the 3-hour time difference between Malta and Moscow, and be aware that while English is spoken in major tourist areas, learning a few basic Russian phrases like "Spasibo" (thank you) can greatly enhance your interactions.
