ADVISORY ON VISA FRAUD


It has come to the notice of Embassy that some unscrupulous elements are misguiding visa seekers and charging hefty amounts to the tune of Roubles 40000 to 50000 offering Indian visa. Similarly, some websites, which are different from the official website of BLS Indian Visa application Centre Moscow, are posing as the official website with same or similar name and offering visa services.

In this regard, this Mission strongly advises visa applicants that they should not fall in the trap of such fraudulent agents or websites. If anyone requires Indian visas, they should approach the Indian Visa Application Center, Moscow (Address: Vorontsovskaya Street, 20, Entrance 7, Moscow) and submit their visa applications with relevant documents. The visa applicants should pay only the official fees, as per the receipt provided at the counter of BLS Indian Visa Application Center, Moscow. The Indian Visa Fee structure has only 3 types of fees- Roubles 3193 for single entry, Roubles 6628 for double entry and Roubles 8690 for multiple entry visa, for all category/types of visa and duration, for Russian nationals. For any information/doubt on Indian visas, Indian Embassy Website ( https://indianembassy-moscow.gov.in ) or BLS Visa Application Сentre, Moscow website ( https://blsindia-russia.com) may be visited. Also, you may call at +7 495 783 75 35 (Ext-375 or 295) or send an email at sscons.moscow@mea.gov.in, mentioning your doubt, your name and phone number.

If it comes to your knowledge that anyone is charging extra money with a promise of helping to provide Indian Visa, or any fake/fraudulent websites are operating in this regard, the matter may please be reported to Embassy of India, Moscow at e-mail address cons.moscow@mea.gov.in.
