An official at the Consulate of Russia in
Ottawa indicated in a telephone interview that exit visas are
currently required for Russian nationals to travel abroad and that
these visas are stamped in the travel passport (11 Mar. 1992).
However, the official stated that there is no expiry date given on
the visa nor was there an expiry date on exit visas issued in the
past in the Soviet Union (Ibid.). The information provided
by this official cannot currently be corroborated by the IRBDC.
