Tool guide
The same Russian text is written in Latin script differently depending on where it goes. Passports and air tickets follow ICAO rules where Юлия becomes Iuliia; bibliographies and databases use the reversible GOST 7.79; maps and English publications use BGN/PCGN; and a URL slug needs lowercase letters with hyphens only. This tool covers all four so you do not have to check tables by hand. The text is processed by the page script and never leaves your device. See also: turn the Latin result into a ready URL, clear any accent marks left over, lowercase the resulting file name.
Since 2014 Russian authorities follow ICAO Doc 9303. The notable differences from the older French-influenced tradition: ю becomes iu rather than yu, я becomes ia rather than ya, й becomes i rather than y, and the hard sign becomes ie. So Юлия is Iuliia and Дмитрий is Dmitrii. Choose the passport option to get exactly this spelling.
That is common for documents issued before 2014. The old spelling can be kept: submit a request to preserve the previous transliteration together with a document that already carries it — an old passport, residence permit or birth certificate. Otherwise the new rules apply and the name stops matching your visa or bank card.
The URL slug option: it lowercases everything, replaces spaces and punctuation with hyphens and drops the soft and hard signs. Search engines read a hyphen as a word separator, so /kak-vybrat-obektiv is indexed as three words while an underscored variant reads as one.
GOST 7.79 system B is designed to be reversible: the Cyrillic original can be reconstructed from the Latin text, which is why it uses x for х, cz for ц and quote marks for the hard sign. It is unsuitable for documents but useful in catalogues and bibliographies where the original spelling must survive.
Yes, but the result is approximate, and that is a limit of the task rather than the tool. Both ia and ya map back to я, both kh and x map back to х, so a letter-perfect round trip is only possible for GOST text. Always eyeball the output for names.
Yes. The conversion is done by the page script inside your browser: nothing is sent to a server, stored or logged. You can load the page once and keep using it offline.
