Opened the sealed envelop

Hi all,

We have finally recieved our visa after a very long interview at the russian embassy. Elena was questioned for a couple of hours and so were many of the other women there. Now we have a little or maybe a big problem. The lady at the interview said that she would recieve the visa in 2 or 3 weeks. Well, we got the visa today, after only a few days, and in her excitement Elena accidently opened the sealed envelop that is supposed to be given to the customs people. Can anyone help as to what we should do? Thanks.

Wow! Don't worry. But you really have to bring it back to the embassy and get it sealed again.

Much luck.

Hey, given that it's open already I would take advantage of it and copy all the contents; then take it back to the Consulate to get it sealed....;)

P.S. Let the rest of know what's inside the infamous envelope!
