Visa applications accepted and processed before June 25 inclusive will be examined.
In the case of additional questions, the Ministry recommends contacting the relevant Latvian representation abroad.
The Minister for Foreign Affairs Edgars Rinkēvičs said over the weekend that Russian citizens should not be given humanitarian or other visas.
Krievijas notikumu dēļ Latvija neizsniegs humānās vai cita veida vīzas, kā arī nemainīs kopš 19.09.22. ieviestos robežšķērsošanas ierobežojumus Krievijas pilsoņiem

🇱🇻 🇪🇪 🇱🇹 cieši koordinē kopīgu robežapsardzību ar 🇷🇺 🇧🇾 , nepieciešamības gadījumā pieņemot tālākus kopīgus lēmumus
The issue of Latvian visas to Russian citizens was already suspended on February 24, 2022, when Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine but until now there was an exception to cases of special humanitarian concern.
