General Info
Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy is the most eastern commercial Port of Entry, at center of Avacha Bay, Avacha Gulf.

Clearance
The arrival process will be greatly improved by using an agent, but unless all procedures are conducted correctly, it is possible to be refused entry. Begin the procedures and make contact with agent two to three months before your visit to get a multi-entrance visa.
The purpose of the agent is to secure an “invitation” through the local yacht club.
Keep in constant contact with your agent as you begin the passage to Petropavlosk-Kamchatsky. You will be advised of an exact time to be at the Pilot Station.
Once there, call the Coast Guard on VHF Channel 12, (call sign VOSKHOD). Where entering in Avacha Bay, call Port Control on VHF Channel 16 (call sign Petropavlovsk 49: say as “Petropavlovsk sorok devyat”) for permission to enter the harbor and go to the Customs dock.
The Customs dock is located in the MarinTrade port. Here, your agent will immediately meet your boat with customs, immigration and police personnel. Fly the Russian courtesy flag and the Q flag. After the paperwork is completed, call Port Control and request permission to move to the yacht harbor. The Port Control operator may not speak fluent English.
All yachts, even if coming from another Russian port, must follow this procedure and complete formalities before going on to the marina.
Departure procedures must be conducted as well.
