Current Travel Situation
Bermuda to Russia: What You Need to Know
Russia requires visas from Bermuda passport holders. The process requires obtaining an official invitation (tourist voucher) before submitting the visa application. Due to ongoing geopolitical developments since 2022, many Western governments advise against travel to Russia. Check your government's current travel advisory before planning any trip.
How to Get There
Due to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and related international sanctions, travel to Russia is not recommended by many Western governments. Alternative destinations in Eastern Europe such as Georgia, Armenia, or the Baltic states are popular alternatives.
Money & Banking
Russia uses the Russian Ruble (RUB). International Visa/Mastercard suspended in Russia after 2022 sanctions; cash is essential. Exchange USD or EUR for rubles on arrival. ATMs available but may not accept foreign cards.
Practical Tips
Obtain a tourist voucher from a Russian-accredited travel agency before starting the visa application. Due to current sanctions, Visa and Mastercard no longer work in Russia; carry cash or use Russian-issued payment methods. Many Western traveler services (Google Maps, WhatsApp) are restricted in Russia.
