The Moscow Times reported the Oscar-winning Hollywood star flew to Moscow from Rome Friday, but was prevented from entering Russia because of the paperwork problem.
The trip's organizers sorted out the matter with customs officials, while the 67-year-old American actor-director sipped espresso in the arrival hall, the newspaper said.
De Niro, who was eventually admitted into the country, has been in Europe promoting his new film "Stone."
