There is a crisis in the country, but according to statistics, it was in recent years that Russians most often requested visas from other countries for holidays. And the number of Russians who vacationed in countries with a visa-free regime with our country exceeded five million! So now very actual question, and which countries do not need a visa for Russians in 2019 to relax and spend time in the sun at sea. We have compiled a list of all countries and found out which visa is not needed, and which countries can only be entered if you have a Russian passport.
All the countries that sign an agreement on visa-free regime with Russia dream that our tourists will come to them on vacation. But not all countries manage to offer a budget vacation with quality service. Therefore, many countries remain not the last place among Russians when choosing a place to stay. let's look at the whole list.
Countries where you can travel with a Russian passport.
There are not many such countries. And two of them are not recognized by the world community:
- Abkhazia

Qatar. 30 days without a visa. At the same time, multiple entry is allowed, from the moment the stamp is received and an extension of the period for another 30 days.
Svetlana
Highly helpful information. Thank you. But you need to register in Azerbaijan if you stay for more than 15 days
Tatyana
Your information about China is incorrect. In more than 10 cities (Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Harbin, Dalian, Shenzhen……) there is a 72-hour transit permit with a ticket to a third country. About 7 days in Dalian is not true. I live in Dalian and I know what I'm talking about. Also, with a group of more than 5 people, it is possible to issue a visa-free list for a visit period of 15 days
Thanks for the info! It’s a pity that you can’t go on vacation to most of Europe without a visa .. Although we made visas to Bulgaria and rested there with friends, it’s not difficult to organize all this, the rest was cool, Bulgaria is super, the sea is gorgeous, though it’s hot for us, but it's okay!!!)) We rented an apartment for 3 people through the service for renting housing from the owners - "on the way", in principle, we were satisfied and can advise everyone. In Bulgaria, it is by no means inexpensive, and the level and service in the country is quite high, mainly Europeans rest there
