"Caohai two-day tour route" Join a large travel group to travel to the United States or stop paying deposits

On the 8th, the National Tourism Administration Nanhu International Travel Service launched the first batch of American tour groups. During the holidays, the Western Region launches a deposit-free service for U.S. tourist visas, that is, guests who sign up for a U.S. tour and apply for a U.S. tourist visa at our agency do not need to pay a deposit. It is reported that before, tourists were required to pay deposits ranging from 50,000 to 300,000 to travel agencies when applying for tours and travel guides to the United States.

The visa approval rate for the United States increased by 40%

Nanhu International Travel Service. Chen Zhichao, deputy general manager of Western Holidays, said that the strictness of U.S. tourist visas is an important reason why the company waives deposits for American tourists. Unlike the visa procedures of other countries, the tourist visa of the United States is relatively strict. Applicants must go to the consulate in person for a one-on-one interview and have ten fingerprints collected. Strict visa procedures effectively reduce the risks of travel agencies, which makes the policy of no deposit required a reality.

As long as the applicant can produce as much evidence as possible of domestic inherent assets, stable income, family member information, etc. to prove its binding force, the probability of visa rejection will be relatively reduced. Chen Zhichao said.

Other outbound routes are expected to follow.

Chen Zhichao said that the company's "Fuyou America" ??has been enthusiastically sought after by Guangzhou citizens as soon as it was launched. With the cancellation of the U.S. deposit, it is expected that the number of applicants for U.S. tours will increase significantly, making traveling to the U.S. easier and more popular.

According to analysis by industry insiders, although the deposit-free tour in the United States is currently limited to Nanhu International Travel Service. However, as the tourism market economy gradually improves, the deposit-free policy is expected to be gradually extended to other travel agencies and even other outbound routes.

The so-called outbound travel deposit means that in order to prevent a small number of tourists from illegally staying abroad after leaving the country, travel agencies collect different amounts of cash from tourists as deposits before traveling, and return them to the tourists after they return to the country. The amount of the deposit will be determined based on the route and tourist visa information. Generally, the charges for routes to Japan and South Korea are around 50,000 yuan, for Europe and Australia, 50,000 to 100,000 yuan, and for the United States, 50,000 to 300,000 yuan. In Southeast Asia, except for Singapore, deposits are generally not required. Ms. Yang Yan, an online visa expert, has read this information and believes that the United States has actually opened individual tourist visas long ago and does not require third-party guarantees. The above-mentioned so-called deposit exemption is actually the result of tourists applying for personal tourist visas without any explanation from the travel agency. On the premise that there is no risk for the travel agency, there is certainly no need to collect tourists’ deposits. Net provides single visa services for individual travelers to the United States. Since its establishment, the website has never collected any deposit from tourists for U.S. personal tourist visas.
