Entry details
Holders of a Bhutan passport need an e-visa, applied for online when visiting Russia. The Bhutan passport currently ranks #161 of 199 worldwide, with 52 destinations reachable visa-free or via visa on arrival / eTA.
Russia is relatively guarded about who it admits, admitting 63 of the world's 198 other passports without a prior visa; its own passport ranks #78 with 117 open destinations. The arrangement is reciprocal — Russia citizens face the same e-visa required requirement in the other direction.
In the opposite direction, Russia citizens travelling to Bhutan face: e-visa required.
