A visa is a compulsory travel document for entering certain countries, depending on your nationality. While European nationals are exempt from visa requirements when traveling from one European country to another, the majority of countries in the world require travelers wishing to stay on their soil to present a visa on entry.
Whereas it used to be compulsory to visit an embassy or consulate to obtain a visa, many governments have decided to introduce a system for issuing electronic visas. Find out which countries will be issuing electronic visas to travelers in 2023.
What are the advantages of an e-visa?
The main advantage of the e-visa is its dematerialized nature.
The procedure for obtaining electronic visa is entirely online, simplifying the administrative process. It is no longer necessary to visit an embassy or consulate to obtain a visa. All you have to do is fill in an online form and attach certain supporting documents, and you'll receive your e-visa by e-mail. All procedures are carried out online, including payment for the e-visa (consular fees and service charges of the chosen visa agency).
The dematerialization of the procedure means faster turnaround times than with a conventional visa application. Visa applications are easier to process for the official authorities, which means shorter lead times. Urgent e-visa applications can therefore be honored more often by the authorities, depending on the number of requests received. Fully secure, the e-visa is delivered by e-mail and can be printed out for easy presentation to immigration officials during airport checks.
