How to calculate the validity period of the visa?

The validity period of a visa refers to the time period during which the holder is allowed to enter the country from the date of issuance of the visa. After this time period, the visa will be invalid. Generally, countries issue entry visas valid for 3 months, while some countries issue entry visas valid for 1 month. Some countries have strict restrictions on the validity of visas, such as Germany, which only issues visas according to the date of application. The validity of transit visas is generally short.

Duration of visa:

The duration of the visa refers to the time allowed for the holder to stay after entering the country. The difference between it and the visa validity period is that the visa validity period refers to the use period of the visa, that is, the holder can enter and leave the country within the specified time.

If a country's entry-exit visa is valid for 3 months and the stay period is l5 days, the visa can enter or leave the country on any day within 3 months from the date of issuance, but the holder can only stay in the country from the date of entry to the date of exit 15 days.

Some countries must enter the country within 3 months after issuance, and the stay period after entry is 1 month; In some countries, the visa entry period and stay period are the same.

For example, the validity period and stay period of the American visitor visa is three months, that is, the entrant is valid for three months and can only stay for three months after entering the country. The validity period of the visa is generally 1 month or 3 months; The longest is generally half a year or more than 1 year, such as employment and study visa; The shortest is 3 days or 7 days, such as a transit visa.

Number of valid visas:

In addition to the validity period and stay period, the visa also stipulates the number of valid times. Generally, it is divided into one valid visa, two valid visas and multiple valid visas. The number of times a visa is valid means that once it is used within the validity period, it will be invalid.

Two valid visas, that is, you can use them twice within the validity period of the visa. Multiple valid visas, that is, within the validity period of the visa, the holder can enter and leave its territory multiple times. For example, some tourist visas for Australia and India allow multiple entry and exit within three or six months.

In some countries, work visas are also applicable to multiple entry. Of course, what kind of visa to issue, how long it is valid and how many times it is valid are decided by the visa authority according to the specific situation of the entry applicant.
