I want to travel abroad by myself

The information needed to apply for a passport is a passport photo (you can take photos in a photo studio, which is more expensive at the exit-entry administration), two ID cards, two household registration books and two copies, and then fill out the application form (this form is collected at the exit-entry administration). The fee is a unified 200 yuan production fee, and the courier fee is only in 25 yuan, but when I apply, I can only express it in this city, not across the city. I wonder how it is stipulated in Shanghai. Now, if your application time is 15 working days, I would like to remind you that if you moved to Shanghai from other places, it will take a month to complete, and they will send a letter to investigate. If you are a native of Shanghai, you don't have to. All the above work must be done by yourself, and no one else can replace it.

You don't have to apply for a visa in person. Finding a reputable travel agency saves a lot of things. German visa is up to 2000 yuan, and it is cheaper to go abroad for a few days. Please add any questions!

I applied for an Italian visa. The following is my experience. Take a look.

Location of Visa Agency Center: Room A-B, Floor 0, oriental ginza/KLOC-0, No.48 Dongzhimenwai Street, Dongcheng District, Beijing.

Italian Visa Office: No.2, Dong Er Street, Sanlitun, Beijing (west of the north side of Changhong Bridge, it is easy to find the armed police, right on the street. Go straight after entering, and you can see a small door facing you. )

I have a personal tourist visa (my family leader goes to school in Milan, and originally wanted to visit relatives and friends, but I need the other party's proof of funds, proof of housing, Italian temporary residence permit, invitation letter, etc. So he just went on a solo tour. )

Required information:

1. English application form (original received)

5. Hotel Confirmation Sheet (I found the online reservation here, and both the email and the webpage confirmation sheet were printed. The webpage confirmation sheet was printed in Chinese, English and Italian, and all four copies were received).

6. Proof of funds (I handled a traveler's check from China Bank, 200 euros, 1 ***6, one copy, one copy received).

Next, we are going to war. . . Visa interview

Friday, 7 September 2007

My parents helped me to submit the above materials to the visa agency center, and the interview time was 9: 00 am on September 13, 2007.

Thursday, 3 September 2007

I live near Xizhimen. I originally decided to leave at 7: 30 in the morning and take a taxi to the Italian visa office (I brought all the originals, prepared a copy of the company's business license and another stamped salary card statement. Everyone here said they gave it back, but I didn't want it in the end.

Who knows it's sunny every n days, but it rained heavily this morning, and I couldn't get a taxi after standing in the street for half an hour (psychologically pointing the finger at God, which should not affect the visa result). . . ) and soon decided to go nearby by bus.

Get off at Sanyuan Bridge (in fact, because you should get off near Changhong Bridge, you have no experience) and take a taxi to the Italian visa office. I finally arrived at the visa office at 9: 20. After entering, I asked MM sitting next to me. It turns out that my name has been called before (I didn't wait in line when I went, just waiting for my name to be called). I was anxious at that time. I quickly asked the security guard at the door, and he said that I would call back later (young security guard, very white, wearing glasses, very friendly, ready to answer questions, thank you here). The Italian visa office officially opened at 9: 00. (It turned out that the first one was me. How lucky! Once again, I despise God. Everyone is hanging out. Don't be so serious. ) After the person in front finished processing, the handler walked for a while (probably sorting out the information of the person in front, taking this opportunity to chat with the Italian aunt next to him), and then when he saw the legendary aunt, he suddenly felt a quiver in his heart, thinking that he could not catch up with her, and called the MM next to him. Then another Italian MM called my name and came quickly. She was so nervous that she forgot to say hello. Just watch her draw a few circles on my profile and start asking questions.

Q: How old are you? (All-Chinese dialogue)

A: 28

Q: Are you traveling alone?

Yes (then she saw the ring on my left ring finger)

Q: Are you married?

A: Not yet.

Q: Where are you going?

A: Milan

Q: Are you in Milan these days? Because my family leader is in Milan, my 7-day hotel reservations are all in Milan. After the visa comes down, I plan to return the hotel and live with my family leader.

A: Yes.

Q: Why?

A: Milan's fashion design is very famous. I want to buy some clothes. If time permits, I will stay in Venice for one day. (prepared statement)

Then she said, okay. I didn't ask to see any of my originals, nor did I ask to see a copy of the company's business license and a stamped salary slip. ) I paused and quickly said thank you (the whole journey has not been 5 minutes). Back in my seat, I saw the MM next to me still fighting with my aunt. (I feel sorry for myself)
