For the visa application; the applicant should hold his valid passport or other available travel credentials. Generally, the required period of validity of the passport should be at least 6 months longer than the visa's period of validity, or the procedures of your visa application will not be accepted.

The photo of the applicant is often attached to the visa. Some are pasted together with visa; some are pasted on visa application form. More photos should be prepared and they must be consistent with those in your passport.

Countertendency Visa Application The applicant first should ensure whether or not the target country requires proof of countertendency visa. If required, the procedure for the applicant is as follows:
1. Mail a copy of your valid passport and other related materials (ID card copy, related notaries deed and so on) to your relatives or friends resident in your target country;
2. Your relatives or friends should go to the immigration organization or department who are responsible for the management for your entering and/or leaving border of their own country to apply for the countertendency visa, and then mail it back to you.

Transit Visa Application Should you apply for transit visa, you must go to the embassies or consulates of the transit country (you have to pass through) stationed in your own country to handle the application procedures. Remember that you should bring the credentials materials including the valid passport, the valid visa to your target country, the international air ticket and your photos. The applicant should submit all these materials and fill in the required application form. Then, generally after three to five days, you should obtain the transit visa. Some countries may provide a same day service so that you can obtain the transit visa immediately after you submit the application form.
