Passports and Visas

Information for U.S. citizens on obtaining a U.S. passport and visa requirements to visit other countries. If you need a visa to visit a country, it is usually best to send your passport to a visa service in a city that has a lot of foreign consulates like Washington D.C., New York or Los Angeles. This is especially true if you need more than one visa. Of course you can get your visa for the first country you are visiting and when you are in that country, get a visa for the next country. But that doesn't always work out. It is much better to get them all before you leave the U.S. There are different types of visas such as business visas, tourist visas, or single entry (entering and leaving the country one-time) or multiple entry visas.
