Do I need a VPN in Russia?
A VPN may help but is not guaranteed to restore all services; test tools beforehand and keep offline backups for payments and assistance.
Maybe — a VPN can help access some services, but it does not guarantee access and its effectiveness may vary. Check current regulations and test the VPN and any tools you need before traveling; no VPN should be your only contingency. Keep offline options for payments and assistance in case online tools or VPNs fail.
