Chapter 200: The Envy of Foreigners

Previous Chapter

Recently, Wang Yiyuan has been busy applying for a personal travel visa to the United States, and she really has no time to think nonsense.

According to Wang Yiyuan's personality, she actually disdains to travel to the United States.

As the largest immigration country in the world, the United States originally made up most of its population composed of immigrants. In the eyes of the Homeland Security Bureau, the Immigration Bureau, the visa officer of the embassy abroad and others, everyone looks like they want to immigrate illegally, and there are many materials for all aspects of visa requirements, which makes Wang Yiyuan extremely unhappy.

The world is so big, I have to get you to see it?

So, Wang Yiyuan, who loves to travel, has traveled to many places, but has never considered going to the United States, and the reason is that she doesn't want to see the face of the visa officer.

However, since you have booked a ticket under Hu Hao's coercion, you have to prepare carefully, and it is not cost-effective to be denied.

Again, Wang Yiyuan remembered an incident that happened during a previous trip to Nepal, and she didn't have so many complaints about the strictness of the U.S. review of visa applications.

It was an afternoon in Pokhara, Nepal.

Located in the valley of the Pokhara River in the foothills of the southern Himalayas in central Nepal, Pokhara is the second largest city in Nepal, but its urban area is actually very small. On the banks of Lake Phewa, the most famous in Pokhara, there are just a few streets from east to west. The main tourist area is in the middle street, which is lined with shops, bars, and restaurants.

The street to the south is a pedestrian path along the lake, which is only for people to walk. Because the scenery is good, there will be a lot of tourists who choose to stop there, take a guitar and sit on the lawn to play and sing by themselves, buy small accessories in the local area and make small handicrafts to sell by the river, no one shouts for trading, but to make friends from all over the world, quite a bit of self-satisfaction.

Days in Pokhara are relaxing, and almost no one on a trip pays attention to time. When you wake up, find a place to sit for a while, or chat with other people you know or don't know, find a place to eat and then go back to the hotel to rest when it gets dark, and the day is over.

Wang Yiyuan was in such an extremely relaxed state at that time, even throwing her mobile phone in the inn she rented was too lazy to take out the door, strolling along the lake every day, or chatting with tourists who set up stalls.

It happened to be an American guy and his girlfriend who were setting up a stall on the lawn by the lake. The girl smiled and looked at the other tourists, waiting for someone to admire her work, while the young man was beating the beat and humming to the rhythm of a guitar player not far away.

Wang Yiyuan doesn't remember how she talked to them, but she clearly remembers that when she talked about her trip from Lhasa, Tibet, to Nepal via Zhangmu Customs, the young man and his girlfriend had envious looks on their faces.

At that time, Wang Yiyuan realized that it was not only the United States that strictly controls visas, but also our country. Especially in Tibet, if foreigners want to travel to Tibet, it is more than ten times more difficult for foreigners to travel independently than it is for Chinese people to apply for a U.S. visa.

Foreigners who want to travel to Tibet must apply for a separate travel approval letter for Tibet, also known as a "Tibet visa".

According to the regulations of the China National Tourism Administration, foreign tourists, Taiwan tourists and overseas Chinese (except Hong Kong and Macao residents holding Chinese SAR passports, Home Return Permits or Mainland Travel Permits for Hong Kong and Macao residents) are not allowed to travel on their own during their stay in Tibet.

For young people, especially young people in the West, most of them don't like to be constrained, and naturally they don't want to travel with a group, but if they want to travel independently, they can't apply for a visa to enter Tibet at all, and the refusal of a visa does not give a reason. So the American guy and his girlfriend were envious of Wang Yiyuan, who was able to come and go in Tibet at will.

When she saw the two foreigners looking at herself with envious eyes on the side, constantly asking about the beautiful scenery of Tibet, Wang Yiyuan suddenly felt a sense of pride in her heart, "I am relieved to see the motherland so rogues".

Since that fight, Wang Yiyuan has not complained so much about the strict visa requirements in the United States. Isn't it just that the information required to be provided is comprehensive, I will provide it according to your requirements, you have to find at least a reason to refuse the visa, we want to refuse you, the reason can not be given, it is so domineering, what can you do?

Of course, after YY, after a little pride, you still have to prepare the materials honestly. In fact, there are not so many requirements on the embassy's website, but various agencies will suggest that the applicant should attach an iconic photo taken in the country he has visited before, and also submit a lot of various supporting documents, which has to keep Wang Yiyuan very busy for a while.

From hotel reservations, to proof of employment, from proof of assets, to filling out the DS-160 form according to the specifications...... By the time all the paperwork was prepared and handed over to the U.S. Embassy there, it was already three days later, and the rest of the waiting was still a week before the appointment was announced.

Forget it, after all, with a US visa, there are more countries that can go visa-free, and it will be easier to apply for visas from other countries that are not visa-free.
