A Perfect Guide of e-Visa Application Form-filling Of Benin

Visa is a certification of approval authorized by a foreign authority that permits an individual to enter, remain within, and leave its territory. This seal is stamped on a valid passport of an individual, allowing him to enter the borders of a foreign country or territory. A country determines whether a person is qualified to reside within its territory and for that, a visa is needed. A visa also lets a nation’s immigration department regulate when a permanent resident can have his or her citizenship and the first arrival of the resident is a prime factor of the citizenship process.

Types of Visa: Before traveling to foreign lands, the individual should know about the types of visas and which visa is suitable according to their demands. The classification of visas lets the traveled country understand the purpose of the visitor. Also, as specific time is allotted for certain types of visas, it is easier to classify the types of travelers only by checking their visa types. A visitor should keep in mind the countries that will let him or her entry to their lands with or without an issued visa along with the countries that provide the facilities of e-visa.

  • Business or Tourist Visa: It’s a visa issued to immigrants who want to enter the foreign land for a short-term duration like 1 month to 10 years with a view of business purpose or tourism or a combination of both.

  • Work Visa:This visa lasts for a fixed period (generally 1 year) for temporary immigrants who want access to a country for work. This visa is not considered permanent or definite and the prospective employer must file a petition to the authority. This petition is required to apply for a work visa.

  • Student Visa: Just as the word sounds, this visa is for the students who wish to study in a university abroad. The course of study and the type of university requirements determine how a student visa should be. This visa lasts for around 60 days after completion of a college degree.

  • Exchange Visitor Visa:This is the visa that is issued to non-immigrant individuals who wish to participate in exchange visitor programs of a certain country. Individuals have to return to their home country in 2 years after the end of the exchange visitor program.

  • Transit or ship-crew Visa: Both are issued to non-immigrant individuals. A transit visa is needed for traveling in immediate and continuous transit whereas a ship-crew visa is for working onboard commercial sea transports or international airlines. The duration of the lasting of this passport generally depends on the size of the country or the circumstances. But usually, it has a lasting period of 6 hours to 10 days.

  • Religious worker Visa: This visa is provided to individuals aiming to work on short-term assignments related to religious activities. The duration of the visa generally never exceeds 5 years.

  • Domestic employee Visa: It’s a visa applicable to employees who wish to accompany their employer or carry out domestic duties for their employer. This visa depends on the range of the plans and prospects of the country of residence.

  • Journalists and Media Visa: As the term indicates, individuals or teams when visiting a foreign land for professions like press, radio, film, and print industries use this type of Visa. The terminal point of this visa is generally 6 to 10 months.

Some countries issue e-visa or electronic visas to its visitors. This means an individual wishing to travel can apply for a visa to such countries online. For traveling to some visa-free countries, a passport holder must pre-register an online visa waiver application and thus receive a travel authorization before leaving the home country. This visa is made to lessen the trouble of applying for a visa from an embassy or consulate. Benin is such a country that provides the opportunity of applying for a visa online.
