What should you pay attention to when applying for a tourist visa with a rural household registration?

Applying for a tourist visa has nothing to do with rural or urban household registration, as long as you prepare the documents for visa application.

Procedure:

1. Submit a valid passport.

2. Submit various documents related to the application, such as certificates about your birth, marital status, education, work experience, etc.

3. Fill out and submit the visa application form. Different visas have different forms. Most of them need to be filled in in foreign languages ??and provide personal photos.

4. Meet with officials from the embassy or consulate of the country you are going to. Some countries stipulate that all immigration applicants must be interviewed before making a decision; other countries stipulate that applicants for non-immigrant visas must also be interviewed.

5. The embassy or consulate will submit the completed visa application forms and necessary supporting materials to the domestic competent department for review and approval. The embassies and consulates of a few countries have the right to issue visas directly, but they still have to report it to the country for filing.

6. After going to the country’s competent authorities for necessary review, notify the embassy or consulate in that country of the review and approval opinions. If agreed, a visa will be issued. If rejected, the applicant will also be notified.

7. Pay the visa fee. Generally speaking, you have to pay the fee first when submitting your visa application. There are also some countries that only charge the fee when the visa application is successful. Generally speaking, immigrant visa fees are slightly higher and non-immigrant visa fees are slightly lower. There are also some countries and regions where visas are free.

Extended information:

The Schengen Agreement officially came into effect in July 1995. The member states of the Schengen Convention are also called "Schengen countries" or "Schengen Convention countries", and the member states as a whole are also called the "Schengen Area".

The purpose of the Schengen Convention is to eliminate mutual border checkpoints and coordinate border controls outside the Schengen area. Under the agreement, tourists can legally visit all other Schengen countries if they hold a valid visa from one of the countries.

That is, border controls will be eliminated between member states, and people holding valid ID cards or visas from any member state can move freely within all member states. Since the signing of the Convention, new countries have continued to join.

As of 2008, there are 24 Schengen member states: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Greece, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Poland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta.

According to the Schengen National Agreement, all applicants must purchase and present Schengen visa insurance and medical insurance before entering a Schengen country, otherwise they will be prohibited from entry. Schengen visa insurance requires an insurance amount of more than 30,000 euros and must cover all travel periods including travel and return periods. Some countries have additional requirements: for example, Italy requires a few extra days before and after.
