Travelers to Russia are

urged to obtain overseas

medical insurance which includes

hospitalization and medical evacuation.

If you take prescription medicine, carry

your prescription with you.

Take a small first-aid kit with you. You may

want to include basic cold, anti-diarrhea,

and allergy medications. However, you

should be able to find most items, like

aspirin, locally.

It is important to drink bottled water as

well as using it for brushing your teeth.

Hospitals usually close on weekends but

emergency clinics are open seven days a

week and in most cases require fees be

paid in advance.

Check with your insurance company

before leaving home to find out if you are

covered in a foreign country. You may

want to purchase traveler's insurance

HEALTH

Hopefully you will not need

medical attention on your

trip. If you do, it is important

to communicate basic information

regarding your condition.

Business cards are essential. If possible,

ensure that one side is printed in Russian

and one side in English.

Business dress is conservative and good

shoes are important. Men should not

remove their jackets without asking.

The head of the organization will usually

begin with introductions in order of

importance.

It is important to give a firm hand shake

when both greeting and leaving your

Russian partners.

Initially meetings will begin with some

small talk, before moving on to business

discussion.

Rules of business follow closely to a

Russian proverb, "Don't hurry to reply,

but hurry to listen".

Computers: It is a good idea to bring a

converter if you want to work online.

DO shake hands firmly when greeting and

leaving your Russian partners and make

direct eye contact.
