Visa and arrival

Study Visa for Course Participants
At ProBa Language Centre, we facilitate this process by providing all clients with the official invitation necessary to obtain the entry visa. The preparation of your documents can take from 24 hours to one month, depending on your citizenship and course length.
The prolongable study visa may be valid up to 3 years (according your study contract with our school) and include possibility to get student work permit as well as temorary residence permit.
Please Note:
During peak seasons, processing times may be longer due to high demand. We recommend sending your documents well in advance. There is an enrolment fee of EUR 75 for document processing for short-term visas.
Required Documentation for Visa Invitation
To receive an official invitation from our Centre, please submit the following to our office:
- A completed enrolment form.
- A photocopy of your valid passport, including the photo page.
Registration upon Arrival
Upon arrival, we assist students with registration. Please bring your migration card and passport on the first day of study to facilitate this process.
Arrival and Beginning of Tuition
If you opt to stay with a Russian host family, accommodation fees are payable weekly. You may arrive on any day and at any time. You will be greeted at the airport by our staff and escorted directly to your host family or other specified destination. Airport transfers are included in your package and thus provided at no additional cost. Extra days with the host family are charged at EUR 40 per day.
Arrival Details
Please provide your arrival information at least five days before your scheduled arrival. This should include your date of arrival, airport name, arrival time, airline, and flight number. We do not require scanned or electronic tickets. Our Transfer Manager will contact you to confirm the details.
Every student is given an emergency contact number (school driver and arrival manager) and the exact address of their accommodation before arrival.


Welcome Package
Upon arrival, each student receives a “Welcome Package” containing printed information about the city, the school, and a map of the school district (city centre), helping you to navigate and settle in comfortably.
