Travel to Russia requires an entry visa.  All visa applications must be supported by an official letter of invitation. 

Registration for this conference is a two step process:
1. Register for the conference
2. Request a letter of invitation

The letter of invitation is intended to support your visa application. The letter will be sent from the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs directly to you so that you can submit it with your visa application. The process can take as long as 50 days, hence the March 23 deadline for registering.
