Travel Visa

A visa is a official permission allowing a person's entry into a foreign country. There is a huge difference between a passport and a visa.

Passports are documents that allow the holder to leave the country and go overseas for a holiday, event, study or work. However, entry into a particular country is not automatically granted to the holder of a passport; one has to apply for a visa to gain entry into that country. But both are in conjunction with the other; no one can leave their country of birth or get into another country without a valid passport and a visa.

A visa stipulates certain reasons why a person will be visiting or staying in a foreign country for a specified period of time. It is stamped on the passport and is seen as a supplement to the passport, which is the main travel document. Most visas come with time limits; typically the time limit is up to six months, in certain cases it may be extended to years if prior request is made through proper channels and with substantiated documentation. However, there are very strict requirements and regulations governing visa extensions.

Even in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, not much importance was placed on passports and visas and these were not required for movement from one country to another. Large numbers of people travelled by train through the European continent and except for certain sensitive areas where some kind of personal identity of proof needed to be established at a border between two countries, by and large they were not insisted upon.

Post World War I, the scene changed with geographical boundaries and territories markedly different necessitating the need for regulating movement of people and goods. Before that, movement of goods and people only needed a paper with a stamp of approval akin to a passport.

Certain types of visas are stamped on arrival in a foreign country or through a specialized private visa service provider usually appointed by the consulate or embassy of the country, if a person is unable to appear in person. In this case, private visa consultants usually charge an additional fee to carry out the process of customer and document verification, scrutinizing applications and submitting the papers to the relevant authority. In the absence of a consulate or embassy of the visa issuing country in a person's home country, then it may be necessary for the person to travel to a third country where a consulate or embassy of that particular country exists to receive a visa approval in person.

However, such cases and far from the norm; almost all countries have consulates and embassies around the world.

The need for a visa is generally contingent upon factors like:

• Citizenship or nationality of the application

• Intended duration of stay

• Purpose or activity applicant wishes to undertake in the country of travel

There are several categories of visas for travel to foreign country with different requirements and issue conditions.

Perfect Checklist for a Foreign Tour

When you are traveling abroad, you will need a passport and a visa to travel to the country. While each country has different requirements for getting a visa or applying for a passport, the standard procedure for the service remains the same. In this article, we give you the perfect checklist that you should stick to when you are going to be traveling to an international country.
Step 1: Get your Passport

Using the passport application service, you can get your passport easily, especially with the aid of the online processes. As per your convenience, you can opt for the option which is most suited to your need. You will need to first get the passport application form. After you have filled the form thoroughly, you will need to gather the relevant documents. After you have gathered all the documents you need, you will need to pay the fees for the passport application services and get the receipt for it. If you are applying to the passport application center, you will need to book an appointment to get your documents verified. Submit all the necessary documents at the passport application center, or in the online passport application and wait for the approval. Once you get the approval, you will need to visit the center and receive your passport.
Step2: Type of Visa

Once you get the approval for the Passport Application Services or the Online Passport Application you will receive your passport, you will need to apply for the visa. Depending on the type of trip you are travelling, you will need to select the kind of visa accordingly. The different types of visa that are available are Tourist visa, Transit visa, Business visa, Employment visa, Entry visa, Student visa and Medical visa. Each visa has different requirements and different durations. While certain countries have more than the standard visas, other countries have only a limited visa type. In some countries, there are visa exemptions, where certain individuals from certain countries need not apply for the visa. However, in some countries, it is necessary to apply for a visa. Check the official website if you are unsure whether you need to apply for a visa.

Step 3: Visa Application Process
The visa application process is very similar to how you go about using passport application services. All you need is the visa application form, and a certain set of documents. Depending on the type of visa you will be applying for, the document requirements are different. Therefore once you have collected the required documents, you will have to submit it along with your passport at the visa application center and wait for the approval.

With today's technology and the updated application processes, the passport application service and the visa application process are extremely quick, ensuring that you will waste no time on your trip to you dream destination.
