There is a huge difference between Schengen visas and Russian visas what effectly makes it possible for tourists to acquire a 3-5 year multi entry visa to the Schengen area. Itis is not reciprocal. I believe it is Russia who has to ease their visa regime

I have done my turistic Visa Portugal - Russia - Portugal in a 5 days stay. It was average complex and around 150 euros cost . The new Leningrad region E-Visa is a good tool for EU ( excluding some coutries , check here for details : https://m.fontanka.ru/2019/09/27/128// ) the same should be available for EU ( Portugal ) since it’s a very turistic dependent country with good prices . The future should follow a bilateral sort of e-visa for this situation. At www.barros.one in contact , help and time saving tips can be addressed for Russian citizens. Barros

I know that getting Russian visa by general conditions is close to disaster. But Europeans who tell me that Schengen visa is easy to get (especially Germans / Austrians) just do not know the actual state of the question. First of all, majority of the Germanic countries will not give you visa easily. So, if you want to go to Munich or Vienna, seriously go to apply to French or Greek consulates, fly to Athens / Paris and then to your lovely Octoberfest or Mozart. My own experience of spending 100 euro on Austrian visa ended up with 3 days visa. Secondly, there are tons of reasons why even liberal consulates can reject your application. I recently was rejected by Italian embassy for the reasons not stated in the actual requirements, just because they have now new head of visas. Thirdly, it takes time and money. I barely understand why consulates take my passport for 1-2 weeks and cannot stamp visa in one day. All documents could be easily uploaded online and if approved visa can be stamped on arrival. Russian government introduced second foreign passport, technically allowing to travel while applying for visa. Guess what? Schengen countries started to ask for both passport!!! Why copy is not enough?! Also, lets not forget fees, fees, fees.
