Is visa going to visa center or consulate

1. Some countries require that certain types of visa must be handled through agencies. Indivials are not allowed to submit information directly to the visa center of the embassy. For example, the Japanese tourist visa is that even if you have prepared sufficient information, you can't directly submit it to the visa center of the Japanese embassy. You must choose qualified travel to handle it. But some countries, such as the United States, can apply according to the process. Of course, generally speaking, unless it is a small country or a country with simple proceres, it is recommended that those who are not familiar with the application process of the country should go to the agency to handle it

2. The visa center is just a service agency that helps to collect information to the embassy

because the Canadian Embassy accepts the information submitted by me to the embassy

but it can only be received in the Canadian Embassy from 11:00 to 12:00 every morning from Monday to Thursday

so if you don't want to pass the visa center

you can hand in the information by yourself

save that 25 0 visa center service fee

3.

Both embassies and consulates can apply for visa, but the scope of application is different, depending on the executive rights of the consulate

The embassy is a permanent diplomatic representative of a country in the capital of the country that has established diplomatic relations, while the consulate is only set up in the main cities of the host country, where there are more overseas Chinese and consular work

the responsibilities of embassies cover all regions of the host country, while consulates are only responsible for the areas under their jurisdiction. Many countries have only embassies and no consulates in most countries. Whether or not to set up a consulate, and which level of consulate to set up, mainly depends on the number of overseas Chinese and consular business and the importance of the region, and in accordance with the principle of reciprocity

consulates can also apply for visa, but the specific visa can be applied for depends on the responsibilities and authorities of the Consulate General. For example, the US Consulate General in Cheng can only apply for non immigrant visa, and the immigration visa can only go to the US embassy in China

< H2 > expand information:

the main task of consuls is to protect the commercial and economic interests of sending countries and their nationals, and to handle all kinds of business related to them. For example, to promote the development of commercial and economic relations between sending and receiving countries; Investigate the business and economic situation of the receiving country and report to the sending government; Issue of passports and travel documents; To accept the declaration of the birth, death and marriage of the nationals of the sending country, to prove the will, to investigate the evidence, to transfer the judicial writ, etc; To protect and supervise the ships, aircraft and their crew members of the sending country, to check the ship documents, to investigate navigation disputes, to mediate disputes between crew members, etc. "

6. The visa is issued by the consulate, and the visa center is just an acceptance agency to help you accept the materials, and then they will submit them to the consulate for issuance. If you want to make up the materials, go directly to the visa center and tell them that the consulate will inform you to make up the materials. There is a prompt in the visa center that you need to make up the materials.

7. Nowadays, it is popular for embassies and consulates to outsource the business of examining visa application materials. In fact, there is no subordinate relationship between these visa centers and the embassies and consulates. At most, the person in charge of the visa center may have a good relationship with the embassies and consulates, so he got the business... If he submits materials from the visa center, he will be charged at most one or two hundred handling charges. For embassies and consulates, visa centers liberate them from the routine work of reviewing a large number of documents (after all, it's not cost-effective to hire more formal embassy staff to do what clerks can do), so embassies and consulates are very happy to transfer most of the visa application proceres to these visa centers. As far as I know, at present, many embassies and consulates only issue non long-term visa applications (especially the large number of short-term travel or business visa applications) to visa centers for approval. So, it's not a matter of how much more it costs. Instead, for some types of visa, you have to submit materials to the visa center to get the appointment of face-to-face signature. The so-called people have to bow their heads under the eaves, ha ha~

8. The materials should be sent to the visa center for trial, and then submitted to the Embassy by the visa center

9. If it's a short-term stay visa type C, you only need to go to the visa center. You must record your fingerprints in person. If it is a long-term visa, that is, the stay period can exceed 90 days, you need to go to the embassy to interview and hand in materials to record fingerprints.
