Can seafarers apply for visas and issue entry and exit by themselves? Are "visas" and "entry and exit" the same? How long is the validity period and how much does it cost?

Hello, host!

The so-called visa application generally means that we need to apply for a US visa when we go to the United States. You can make an appointment and apply for a US visa in advance by yourself, and the fee is about US$300.

As far as I know, you cannot issue an exit certificate by yourself. This must be handled by your seaman's certificate processing unit. The fee is up to RMB 300.

For seafarers, I remember that the validity period of a US visa is 3 years; and the exit certificate has a validity period after it is issued. I forgot the specific time, sorry.

Hope this helps!
