Okay, VisaHQ said it will be fine because my Passport numbers match with what is written on the Visa.  :P

Hmmmmm, wonder if I can get an American Green Card now......... ;)

You know this might be a "back at ya!" from their side, as many still call Ukrainians Russians.. :)

Well, I didn't make it through Customs :(
Those Boys and Girls, literally they are all under 25, at Passport Control have Russia's National Security tight as a drum :) They took me to 3 different rooms around Domodovedevo airport until they found the Russian Consul who worked there. A really helpful guy. He was able to print me out a new Business Visa in less than 15 minutes! I was delayed for about an hour but made it to Vnukuova airport for my AN24 flight to Kirov :)

Glad to hear you were able to fix it without too much trouble. Just another example of the FSU hangover, my wife says that they look at their job differently (they are looking to make a problem whenever possible instead of solve them or just plain think)

Utrobina are you telling us that you got good customer service in Russia and you didn't have to slip him a few rubles?   :) 

Yes, he is saying this  ;)

Not even a little mouse can cross the Russian border illigaly  :D
It's your problem if you take my posts too seriously.

Utrobina

I see your inconvenience at the Russian Passport control as a positive. With the foiled terror threats lately it is good to know they are paying attention. I often wondered.

About Utrobina or about the security at points of entry?   Sorry....  I had to ask it.   ;)
