The Business Visa

A business visa allows the bearer to enter the host country and engage in business activities without joining that country’s labor market.

For example, an individual may require a business visa if they are traveling to a country to do business with another company or if they are attending a business conference. The visitor typically must show that they are not receiving income from the country.

Why Do I Need a Visa to Travel?

  • Visas are necessary if you’d like to travel to a country that does not have a visa policy in place with your home country.
  • Many countries have visa policies and agreements that allow their citizens to travel freely between them without the need for a visa.
  • A country’s visa policy is a rule that states who may or may not enter the country. The policy may allow passport holders of one country to enter visa-free but not the passport holders of another country. Most visa policies are bilateral (two countries will allow visa-free travel to each other’s citizens).

Why Certain Countries Have Visa Restrictions

Countries have visa restrictions in order to check and control the flow of visitors in and out of the country and to prevent illegal immigration and other criminal activities. Forcing travelers to apply for a visa allows the authorities to vet potential visitors. 

For example, individuals may attempt to travel to a country with better economic opportunities in order to work illegally there.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
