After Russia’s move into Ukraine, the global community responded with various sanctions. One of the surprising sectors taking a hit? The modeling industry. The ladies who were once effortlessly hopping between international assignments now face major hurdles.

Specifically, Bali’s authorities have considered dropping their visa-on-arrival option for Russians and reviewing the request made to the Indonesian government on March 13, 2023.
