What is visa cancellation? Do I need to cancel my visa if my itinerary changes?

We often encounter some unexpected events when traveling, such as this problem. After the visa was completed, the itinerary suddenly changed, and many people began to ask a question. Do I need to cancel my visa in this case? Will it affect your future handling!

Bian Xiao will give you a good talk about these problems! I think everyone knows that these questions are very important.

What is visa cancellation?

Cancellation of visa means cancellation of visa, which means that after you get a visa from a certain country, you go to the consulate of that country to cancel your visa within the specified time after your trip, so as to prove that you have not overstayed in that country.

For an individual visa, I usually bring all relevant information to the consulate to cancel it in person. For a group visa, I can give it to the travel agency for cancellation. If the visa is not cancelled on time, it may leave a bad record, which will affect the issuance of visas in the future.

Do I need to cancel my visa because my itinerary has changed?

1. Generally speaking, you must sign a package tour.

Traveling with a group, no matter which country you go to, you will generally be asked to cancel your visa after returning home.

2. Special circumstances that need to be cancelled for free travel.

Generally speaking, individual tourist visas do not need to be cancelled, except for the special circumstances mentioned below. If you want to cancel your visa, there will be a clear reminder on the visa page or the blank page of your passport to remind you to cancel your visa.

3. Although Egypt, Japan, South Korea, Turkey and other countries have opened individual tourist visas, the travel agency must ensure that the application is submitted at the time of application, so after these countries end their trips, the travel society requires you to cancel your visa after returning home.

4. Most European countries need to go back to China to cancel. For example, Schengen countries and Britain generally require cancellation after returning home. Similarly, if it is necessary to cancel the visa, the applicant will attach a note when he gets the Schengen visa, which is famous for how long he will go to the consulate to cancel the visa in person after returning home. The date of returning to China shall be subject to the seal stamped when entering China Customs.

5. Countries that generally need to sign: Hungary, Czech Republic, Poland, Sweden, Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Greece, Germany, Egypt, Italy, Austria, Finland, Denmark, Belgium, France and other Schengen countries.

What's the impact?

If you apply for a visa and don't receive any cancellation notice when you get it, you don't need to cancel it if you can't use it this time because of the change of itinerary. Countries like Southeast Asia have hardly cancelled their requirements.

The next time you apply for a visa, just explain to the embassy staff why you don't need a visa. However, if you receive the cancellation notice, you must cancel it, otherwise it will have a great impact on obtaining visas in Europe and Schengen in the future.

Well, it's good for everyone to know this. You must think carefully when you plan to travel abroad next time, otherwise it will be bad for you and add some trouble.
