Legal Obligation
Risk: Immediate Deportation
According to federal law, foreign citizens must present valid health insurance when crossing the border. If missing, the visa will be annulled on the spot and entry refused.
Due to current sanctions, many international policies are no longer valid in Russia. You strictly require insurance that is explicitly accepted by Russian authorities. Standard health cards or credit card insurance often do not meet the legal criteria.
Mandatory Requirements:
-
Explicit Coverage Area The policy must explicitly state "Russia" or "Worldwide" in writing.
-
Coverage Amount Minimum €30,000 coverage for medical emergencies.
-
Full Duration Valid from the first day of entry until the day of departure.
