Fertility treatment is the field in&nbsp;which we know we are top professionals and\u00a0<strong>we feel confident to take responsibility for&nbsp;the result of the treatment<\/strong>\u00a0and to share the risk with you: a\u00a0baby or&nbsp;money\u00a0back.<\/p>\n<p>The field in&nbsp;which we do not have the full control over the process and&nbsp;the result is\u00a0<strong>the current visa and&nbsp;traveling\u00a0situation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The current visa and&nbsp;travel situation is far beyond the regular tourist e-visa situation as&nbsp;in early 2020, when&nbsp;it was just enough for&nbsp;you to fill in&nbsp;an online application, book hotel and&nbsp;flight. Our patients could do this all on&nbsp;their own and&nbsp;the only thing we had to do was to meet them in&nbsp;the airport and&nbsp;take them to\u00a0a\u00a0hotel.<\/p>\n<p>Our dialogue with you has always been based on\u00a0<strong>transparency and&nbsp;trust<\/strong>\u00a0so we feel important to tell you how the things stand at\u00a0the\u00a0moment.<\/p>\n<h3>The Visa Process\u00a0Today<\/h3>\n<p>Today the only way to get your Russian visa is to submit to the Russian Embassy in&nbsp;your local country\u00a0<strong>an individual official invitation from the Russian Office of Internal Affairs<\/strong>. This invitation in&nbsp;the current times is the only legal basis for&nbsp;your visa and&nbsp;is needed even&nbsp;if&nbsp;your country has a visa free regime with Russia. To receive this invitation for&nbsp;you we have to submit\u00a0<strong>the petition on&nbsp;your behalf to the Russian Office of Internal\u00a0Affairs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As&nbsp;I have explained,\u00a0<strong>this process we have never experienced before.\u00a0<\/strong>Our clinic had to employ\u00a0<strong>5 full time new team members<\/strong>\u00a0to take care of logistics, the paperwork, petitions and&nbsp;dialogs with the Russian Office of Internal Affairs. To receive an invitation it takes\u00a0<strong>20 working days from submission of our Clinic&#8217;s petition<\/strong>. As&nbsp;soon&nbsp;as&nbsp;we get your invitation, we send it to you straight away together with further instructions on&nbsp;visa application in&nbsp;your country.<\/p>\n<p>Still the submission of petition doesn&#8217;t guarantee that&nbsp;invitation will be received within 20 working days \u2013 it may take longer; and&nbsp;the availability of invitation doesn&#8217;t guarantee the visa. These decisions are within control of the Russian Office of Internal Affairs and&nbsp;Russian Embassies.\u00a0<strong>These decisions are outside of your and&nbsp;our\u00a0control.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>The Travel Process Today<\/h3>\n<p>We arrange\u00a0<strong>transportation from one of Scandinavian airports<\/strong>. In&nbsp;July and&nbsp;the first half of August we had charter flights going to Stockholm and&nbsp;back every Sunday. After&nbsp;the air company could not fulfil more than&nbsp;4 round trips in&nbsp;a row, we have started\u00a0<strong>dialog with other flight companies<\/strong>\u00a0and we hope to achieve\u00a0success.<\/p>\n<p>Currently we have\u00a0<strong>relocated the meeting point to Helsinki airport<\/strong>\u00a0where we bring our clients by bus after&nbsp;completion of the treatment every Sunday and&nbsp;pick up new groups. Finland does not prohibit\u00a0<strong>transit passengers<\/strong>\u00a0to travel to Russia via Finland from their local countries and&nbsp;back.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend new patients will fly to Helsinki and&nbsp;we pick them up from Helsinki airport\u00a0<strong>either by bus or&nbsp;by a new charter flight<\/strong>. This weekend we also bring patients who&nbsp;have completed their treatment to Helsinki airport\u00a0<strong>either by bus or&nbsp;by a new charter flight<\/strong>\u00a0so that&nbsp;they can travel home by regular\u00a0airlines.<\/p>\n<h3>Our Message to You<\/h3>\n<p>When&nbsp;you have made your\u00a0<strong>mature decision and&nbsp;you have your strong will<\/strong>\u00a0nothing can stop you and\u00a0<strong>you will reach your goal<\/strong>\u00a0sooner or&nbsp;later.<\/p>\n<p>In&nbsp;the current situation we do not only work for&nbsp;you to help you achieve the result sooner than&nbsp;later with the help of our medical professionalism but&nbsp;we also help you not waste your time in&nbsp;waiting for&nbsp;a baby,\u00a0<strong>we help you to get your visa, have your traveling opportunity to be able to reach this final destination \u2013 our clinic \u2013 sooner<\/strong>,\u00a0<strong>where&nbsp;this baby will be created with the maximal\u00a0chances.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>To increase the chances of successful visa and&nbsp;travel, please pay attention to the\u00a0following:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Your travelling passport should be valid at&nbsp;least 9 months from the planned arrival to our clinic<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>You should react promptly to the e-mails and&nbsp;messages of our coordinators and&nbsp;administrators<\/strong>\u00a0and provide answers to their questions not later than&nbsp;within 24 hours.\u00a0 These answers they need for&nbsp;the petition and&nbsp;the logistics.\u00a0<strong>The sooner we have your answers, the quicker we prepare the petition.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>We cannot prohibit you from choosing alternative routes like regular airlines, and&nbsp;we will try to assist in&nbsp;dialogs in&nbsp;airports or&nbsp;other passport control checkpoints. Still\u00a0<strong>we cannot guarantee reliable entrance to Russia if&nbsp;you chose an individual\u00a0route.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>We offer regular weekly transportation from\/to Helsinki. This is the route that&nbsp;we can control with more probability<\/strong>, since&nbsp;we focus on&nbsp;one group and&nbsp;one entrance\/exit to\/from the country.\u00a0<strong>We recommend that&nbsp;you take this route because&nbsp;we can control it better than&nbsp;other\u00a0routes.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If&nbsp;you wish to\u00a0<strong>travel this year with our groups on&nbsp;Sundays\u00a0<\/strong>please confirm this wish to us\u00a0<strong>NOW<\/strong>\u00a0since we have to create listings of potential passengers for&nbsp;the flight company till&nbsp;the end of the year.\u00a0<strong>Being included in&nbsp;this listing does not oblige you to take a flight.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>We wish you a safe journey and&nbsp;that you reach your final destination soon \u2014 the clinic and&nbsp;the\u00a0baby.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>We believe that&nbsp;acting together side-by-side and&nbsp;being united by the same goal we will organize your safe journey to our Clinic and&nbsp;your big step towards your future\u00a0baby.<\/p>\n<p>Kind regards<br \/>\nDr. Olga and&nbsp;Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Friends The world experiences unusual\u00a0times.
