Well just explore webmoney
Create an account, verify and upgrade using your passport details
I Beleive they issue virtual cards ( i may be wrong) please check and explore as webmoney is Russia based otherwise you ll do just fine with webmoney wallet if at all you can figure their multiple options like wme wmz and god knows what others

I am surprised that no one has suggested this apart from me and you didn't try to explore this option.
I have been using webmoney since ages, it's an extremely smart and solid wallet thingy.
Being a Russian alternative to PayPal it must be readily acceptable everywhere in Russia..

thanks.
I am looking into it.
I have a feeling that rupay and mir card deal will go through soon enough. Like i posted on above Rupay card is already working for some banks.

That would be the most convenient way for me.
Any suggestion on good cheap way for flight booking?.

Flights are too costly though.
And Baggage limit is just 1 cabin bag...wth! .

Must have more options. If that deal comes through and then sanctions happen you will lose it

Anything via Istanbul or Ankara? those places are the backoffice for Russia. Few realise that a lot of people who left Russia to avoid mobilisation are techies. They could afford the exorbitant rates and are likely the ones that drove the prices up. These idiots would be the last to be called up since they had no useful military skills. Your average Russian military family is no different to an Indian military family. They could not afford those rates and with a family what would they do outside Russia?

Thailand is a popular destination for Russians yet not many went there. The bulk ran to Armenia on the way to Istanbul.

Surprising, you'd think the flights would be operating at less capacity these days. Or maybe there are people who see opportunities there.

Make 65 lakh annual, income tax is 13%, make more it is 15%.

Self-employed ? then its is 6% :oops::bawling:
