To get the registration in this case a foreigner should go to Samara Visa and Registration Department, stand a long line, fill out fill out lots of papers, pay Sate dues in a bank and get the registration. As an option we can do it for you. We charge $50.00 for obtaining registration in 24 hours with no problems and waste of time.
