IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR VISA APPLICANTS

In order to improve visa services, starting from May 2, 2012,
the Consulate General of the Russian Federation in New York is
outsourcing its visa application processing to the
"Invisa Logistics Services LLC" company.
US citizens, foreign nationals and non-nationals are advised
to apply for the Russian visas to the above-mentioned company's
Visa Center located at:
Suit 302, 80 Maiden Lane, New York, NY, 10038
Tel. (212) 430-59-90, Fax. (212) 430-59-93

Lunch time: 12.00-13.30 p.m.

Visa Center service fee is $ 30.00 per visa,
consular tariffs remain the same.

I was hoping to avoid the extra fees by taking it straight to the embassy but that just went out the window. I'm better off just using Travisa which charges 55 bucks and you could mail it in.
