What do I do if I need a visa?

For events taking place in Russia, Ukraine & Kazakhstan:

Most nationalities will require a valid entry visa for Russia, Ukraine & Kazakhstan and it is your responsibility to obtain this. Please check with your local Consulate for the latest information. The process of obtaining a visa can be lengthy and you should apply as early as possible. There is often a sliding scale of charges dependant on the length of time given to the embassy to issue the visa.

As a UK registered company we are unable to issue invitation letters for a visa. However, many Embassies will accept your official hotel confirmation as an invitation. When you book your room you must ask Reservations to provide visa support with your confirmation.

Alternatively you can approach a local travel agent, who should be able to arrange visa support for you. If this is not possible our travel agents in the UK can obtain official invitation letters for any nationality and will send them direct to your Consulate. Please contact Scotts Tours on + 44 20 7383 5353

For events taking place in London & Vienna:

Some delegates may require a British/Austrian entry visa and it is your responsibility to obtain this. Please contact your local Consulate for the latest information.

An official invitation can only be issued after receiving confirmation of payment. Please fax a copy of the confirmation to us on +44 (0) 207 017 7827 making sure that the transfer is referenced to the name of the delegate(s) and invoice number.
