If you're planning to  travel abroad , in many cases you will need to obtain a visa beforehand. The requirements vary according to your country of origin and your destination. But for a lot of people, the process to be granted a visa can seem daunting and unclear. In this article, we share important tips about visas to equip you with the knowledge to prepare for your international trip. Read on to find out more about how tourist visas work, including a very useful sample cover letter for your tourist visa application.  

What Exactly Is a Tourist Visa?

A tourist visa or visitor visa is an official document that allows you to get in another country. In general, you are likely to need one every time you visit another country. However, this depends on which country you are from and where you are going, as some countries have agreements that allow entrance even without it.

A tourist visa may take different forms: it can be a paper document, although it most often comes as a simple stamp in your passport . Some countries require you to arrange your visa before arriving in the country, while others issue it to you once you land at the airport.

A tourist visa indicates how long you are allowed to stay in the country. It also defines which activities you are allowed to participate in or not while there, such as working and studying.

Other Types of Visas

how long is a passport good for

A tourist visa is the most common and most acquired type of visa. It is usually only valid for a short period of time, commonly ranging from a few weeks to a couple of months.

This is what you will need if you are just planning to visit the country. A tourist visa however doesn't allow you to work and study while you are in a particular country.

Others types of visas include student visas, business visas, media visas, fiancé visas , and many others depending on the place you're travelling to.

Resident visas are also available for those who want to live in a particular country. You will normally need a valid reason to obtain this type of visa, as they tend to be the most difficult to get.

What You Need to Apply for a Tourist Visa

As mentioned above, tourist visa requirements vary with your nationality and your destination, as well as where you make your application. You should always check the instructions application to your specific situation on the relevant embassy or consulate website. Having said that, there are some general requirements and common documents that are needed for most tourist visa applications.

These include:

  • Passport valid for at least six (6) months beyond the intended period of stay
  • Duly filled out visa application forms
  • Confirmed round-trip tickets
  • Cover letter for tourist visa or letter to the consulate

Top tip: travel insurance for your visa application

Most tourist visa applications require you to show proof of travel insurance coverage for the duration of your trip. We use and recommend SafetyWing as our preferred travel medical insurance provider. It's the most flexible and affordable we've found, starting at just $1.32 per day. They can also provide a visa letter to support your application. If you're looking for more comprehensive coverage, World Nomads is also a reliable and very popular alternative among global travelers. Note: In our experience and to the best of our knowledge, these two travel insurance options fulfill the requirements for most tourist visa applications. However, please make sure to check that they meet the specific criteria applicable to your individual case.

Sample Cover Letter for Tourist Visa Application

The cover letter or letter to the consulate is necessary for tourist visas that require interviews. This letter needs to explain why you want to visit the country and where you will be staying in the country. It must also outline the intended dates and duration of your stay.

Moreover, this letter is your way to tell the embassy if you are getting a sponsorship from a friend, parents, or a romantic partner who are currently based in that country. It's important to take your time to write your cover letter, although you should also make sure to keep it to-the-point and not too long.

If the trip is going to be  sponsored by someone else , make sure to include the following details in the cover letter for your tourist visa application:

  • The name of the person who is going to sponsor your trip
  • The job or source of income of the person who is going to sponsor you
  • Your proof or relationship (normally pictures)
  • Proof of financial capability of your sponsor
  • The expenses your sponsor will cover

The cover letter is a really important document to provide before your trip. It states every important thing you want to tell the embassy or consulate. Make sure that it mentions and explains every document you've submitted.

To give you a better insight into how to create a cover letter for your visa application, here is a sample cover letter for a tourist visa needed to enter a country:

Visitor Visa Extension - Sample Cover Letter

Rahul Gupta 123 Park Avenue Iselin, NJ 08830 USA Home: 732-391-9293 Work: 732-733-4087

November 8, 2021

To, USCIS P.O. Box 660166 Dallas, TX 75266

Subject: Visitors visa extension for my parents 

Dear Sir/Madam, 

I am enclosing the application and the documents herewith for the extension of stay for my parents who are currently in the US on a B-2 tourist visa. According to their current I-94, their authorized stay expires on 02/28/2022. However, they would like to extend their stay in the US until 06/05/2022.

Since they are elderly, they have not been able to make extensive travels as it would be very exhausting for them. Moreover, my work schedule and commitments don’t allow me to take multiple longer vacations in a short duration. During their current stay, they have seen several places on the east coast. However, they are yet to see many other famous tourist locations in the western United States, such as Las Vegas, the Grand Canyon, Hollywood, Disneyland, San Francisco, etc. Since they are getting older, they may not be able to visit us again. Therefore, I would like to show them tourist destinations in the western United States during this visit itself.

During their extended stay, they will continue to stay at my house located at 123 Park Avenue, Iselin, NJ 08830, and I will continue to provide all financial support to them during that time.

Please find the following documents enclosed herewith: * Copies of Form I-94 * Copies of all pages of passports * Copies of Return airline tickets * Proof of financial support including  Form I-134 , bank statements, employment letter, recent paystubs and account verification letter from the bank

Please note that my parents have strong ties to India. They have their business, other children, grandchildren, and other family in India. They have absolutely no intention to stay permanently in the USA. I assure you that they will promptly return to their home in India before the end of their authorized extension of stay.

Therefore, I respectfully request you to approve their extension of stay and provide us with an extended I-94. 

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this application, please feel free to contact me at any time at 732-391-9293 (Home) or 732-733-4087 (Work). 

Sincerely,  Rahul Gupta

Enc: copies of Form I-94, copies of all pages of passports, copies of return airline tickets, and proof of financial support

Quick Tips on How to Write a Sponsorship Letter for a US Visa [with Samples]

Plus, common sponsorship letter mistakes to avoid

Let’s face it, writing doesn’t get any easier when it’s an official letter to the US government. It’s a lot of pressure.

That’s why we’ve come up with these tips and tricks to make sure your sponsorship letter ticks all the necessary boxes.

Read on to find out everything you need to include in your sponsorship letter and how to avoid common mistakes. Plus, we’ve also added two sample sponsorship letters to inspire you!

What is a US visa sponsorship letter?

Although it is not a requirement, a US visitor visa (B-1/B-2) often includes a visa sponsorship letter to strengthen the nonimmigrant visa application. The US visa sponsorship letter is formally known as the letter of invitation.

Not including a sponsorship letter may not be grounds to reject a visa, but we strongly recommend including one.

Who can write a visa sponsorship letter?

Any US citizen or legal permanent resident can write a letter of invitation. The person must be able to prove their citizenship or legal status and also have some kind of relationship to you, whether that be friend, relative, or representative from a relevant institution. If a family member writes the letter, they will also be asked to prove their relationship to you.

By writing a visa sponsorship letter, the author shows their trust in you and also assumes some legal and financial responsibilities.

The do’s and don’t of writing a visa sponsorship letter

  • DO write the letter in English. Other languages will not be accepted.
  • DO state whether you are a US citizen or legal resident.
  • DO state your relationship to the applicant.
  • DO write the reason for the applicant’s visit, including the duration of their stay.
  • DO have someone proofread your letter to make sure there are no errors.
  • DON’T forget to include your contact details including full name, address, phone number, and email address.
  • DON’T forget to include documentation regarding your residency status and/or your relationship to the applicant.
  • DON’T submit a handwritten letter. It should be typed.
  • DON’T forget to sign the letter at the end.
  • DON’T forget to double check all the information is accurate including names and contact details.

Common sponsorship letter mistakes

The biggest mistake people make when writing a visa sponsorship letter or letter of invitation is forgetting to include all of the relevant information.

The second biggest mistake is including inaccurate or incomplete information. For example, writing someone’s nickname rather than their official legal name.

The easiest way to avoid these mistakes is to proofread the letter yourself but also have someone else take another look at it too. Share your letter with the applicant so they can verify all the information about them is correct, including their full name and contact details.

Another common mistake is writing the letter in the applicant’s native language. However, don’t forget the letter needs to be in English. If the applicant does not speak English, it’s a good idea to give them an overview of the contents beforehand in case they are asked about it in their interview.

Finally, don’t try to make the letter overly formal. Although the letter is going to the US government, its primary function is to provide general information and assurance that you are willing to take responsibility for the applicant during their trip to the US. Just focus on keeping your sentences short and to the point. Resist the urge to over-explain or go into unnecessary detail.
