The legislation does not prohibit self-preparation of invitation letters by companies wishing to invite foreign citizens to Russia for a business visit.
This letter is addressed to a specific Russian consulate department and is written in a free form, using company's letterhead, indicating the purpose of the visit, type of visa, terms and details of the invited foreign person. As a next step, the original of such letter of invitation is sent to a foreign citizen, who submits it to the appropriate Russian Consulate Department. If such letter is correctly drawn up, a foreign citizen will receive a visa for it.
A foreign citizen can also be invited by a third-party company organizing his business visit at the request of the client company. In such a case, the invitation letter is issued by such third party company.
