We adopted a child in Russia and now we want to take a trip to Russia togethe. Do we have to get Russian visa for the child?
No, you do not. Children, adopted in Russia, remain Russian citizens till they are 18 years of age (when they can choose their citizenship themselves) and are issued a Russian passport upon adoption. Russian Law does not forbid them to be US citizens at the same time, however, requires them to travel to Russia on their Russian passports as Russia, as many countries, does not recognize dual citizenship.
