1 申请签证 Applying for a Visa
各个国家的入境签证办理要求大同小异,除了要有发自该国的邀请函外,大致需要准备以下材料:有效期6个月以上的个人护照;护照照片5~10张;申请人的身份证;全家户口簿的复印件及家庭成员情况表;所在单位出具的有法人代表签字并加盖公章的担保信等。如果不是旺季办理,旅游签证的整个周期大概会在1周。

什么是过境签证?
公民取得前往国家(地区)的入境签证后,搭乘交通工具时,途经第三国家(地区)的签证,叫过境签证。有的国家规定,旅客搭乘交通工具通过其国境时,停留不超过24小时或一定期限的,均免办过境签证(一般都不允许出国际机场)。也有的国家规定,不论停留时间长短或是否出机场,一律须办过境签证。过境签证同入出境签证一样,都有有效期限和停留期限的规定。
