As long as you can get tickets for the World Cup, there won't be much problem with the visa. Mainly around this ticket, it is really hard to find a ticket. This year, FIFA and German both announced that they would resolutely implement real-name registration system this year, unlike in the past, when they said they wanted real-name registration system every time, they failed to stick to it every time. At present, there are no black market tickets in the market, which shows that both sides are determined to do so, probably because many incidents have occurred frequently in recent years. Such a strict system actually brings some difficulties to real fans, making it very difficult to get tickets.
