Matters needing attention in applying for a visa
1, expiration date
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.
Step 2 Stay time
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.
3. Effective time
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.
