Kaliningrad

We entered Kaliningrad 24th August courtesy of the easily obtained evisa - get it from here:
https://www.evisasrussia.com/kaliningrad-evisa/ (*But see below.)

Note that you also need to complete a customs declaration at the border. There are versions in English available, but we had to seek them out.

The officials there seem to feel that one vehicle per 30 minutes is good going. Three and a half hours it took us, but otherwise OK.

(We are Irish and German passport holders. Although the site lists the UK as a country that benefits from this facility, it also says; 'The countries not expected to benefit from this new Russia electronic visa are United States, Canada, and the U.K. due to the tense political relationships with Russia.')
