Dave and his mates were in high spirits that day and decided to have a quick drink to celebrate before they went to the travel agency. They had one drink and then Dave asked them if they all wanted one more before they went to ‘do the deed.’ His mates thought one more drink was a good idea, especially if Dave was paying, that was until he reached into his back pocket and found that both his wallet and his passport were no longer there. At first Dave thought that his mates were winding him up and that one of them had taken the things from his back pocket. When Dave’s mates finally convinced him that was not the case, he had to accept that his money and passport had been stolen; he wished that he’d listened to his mum as it looked like because of a stolen passport everything was going to be ruined.

Davis mates said they wouldn’t book the holiday that day, but Dave told them to go ahead while he went and reported the theft of his passport and wallet down at the local police station. By the time Dave reached home he was really fed up, the day that had started out so well had been a disaster and he was dreading having to tell his mum about the passport. Dave’s mum just shook her head when she heard what had happened.

“Never mind love”, she said, “There’s an online UK passport renewal service that will get you a replacement passport in a week. I’ll lend you the money and you’ll still be able to go away with your mates.”

Dave wasn’t sure that his mum was right but he went on the website anyway, and sure enough they promised to get an emergency passport to replace the one that had been stolen within a week. Dave was still a bit doubtful but went ahead and ordered the passport before he rang his mates. They didn’t go to the estate agent without him as they were all a bit down after what had happened. It was agreed that they would leave booking the holiday for another week. Dave couldn’t believe his luck when the UK passport renewal people were as good as their word and a week later he had his passport. When their plane eventually landed in Greece two months later, Dave sent a thank you text to the people who had got him another passport so easily and quickly.

Jenny was in a real panic, because she was pretty sure that it would be impossible to get it replaced before she went away. In floods of tears, Jenny called her best friend, the girl she was supposed to be travelling with to say she would have to cancel the holiday because she’d lost her passport. Once Jenny’s friend had listened to Jenny’s garbled account of her disastrous day, the friend said she would take a look online to see what options were available. Jenny was all for cancelling there and then but was dissuaded from doing this by her friend, at least for the next few hours.

Jenny’s friend was sure that she had heard of an online UK passport renewal and visa renewal service that could deal with things much more quickly than the post office and passport office. Eventually she found a site that claimed they could fastrack a replacement passport and have it delivered to Jenny via a courier service at a cost of £180. When Jenny received the phone call from her friend she was extremely dubious about the company’s claims to provide an emergency passport before she was due to go away.

Jenny checked out the passport renewal website for herself and found that they did indeed say that they could get her a replacement passport delivered to her door within a week.  Luckily Jenny could just afford the cost of a replacement passport without it affecting her holiday budget too much. When she got in touch with the advisors at the website, they managed to convince her that losing a passport wasn’t the end of the world and they would be able to deal with her problem quickly and easily.

Jenny provided the passport company with all the information that they needed and they set to work sorting out the replacement for her lost passport. Jenny was like a cat on hot bricks during that intervening week, but her whole attitude changed on the day that she received her emergency passport; she’d always thought it took weeks to effect a British passport renewal. Once Jenny had the new passport in her hands she was able to get some Euros to take with her to Spain. She told everyone who would listen about the website that renewed lost passports in a week and was overjoyed that their service meant she was able to carry on with her holiday plans.

Since 2007 visa applications have to first be made on-line to the Nigerian Consulate. If you plan to see some of the wonderful sites of this sub-Saharan country then you first have to receive an invitation. It is not clear whether invitations can be obtained via whichever travel company you are using.

When you apply for your Nigerian visa you have to be able to show that you have sufficient funds to support yourself during your stay and provide evidence of your travel itinerary and flight tickets. If you plan on staying in a hotel then you need to provide details of this also, you should be able to provide evidence that this is paid for.

Business Visas

There is still considerable opportunity for UK business investment in Nigeria, although you do need to thoroughly check the credentials of anyone inviting you to Nigeria on a business trip. You will need to provide a copy of your letter of invitation with your business visa application explaining the reason for your visit.

All visa applications need to be accompanied by a current passport, which has at least six months remaining before its expiration date and a passport sized photo, which should be attached to the visa application. Everyone who is travelling to Nigeria for whatever reason needs to provide details of their flight itinerary and evidence that you can support yourself whilst in Nigeria.

Religious Visits

Religious conflict is still a cause for concern in parts of Nigeria and conflicts do break out between Christians and Muslims. Christian religious visitors will need a letter from the Nigerian Church. Foreign national representatives of both Islam and Christianity require an invitation from a religious organisation and approval from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Abuja, Nigeria, must be submitted along with all the other documentation required for a visa application.

Most travel agents and companies include Russian tourist visas in the package price. Taking a package deal is probably the easiest way of travelling to Russia for the first time. Russian visa applications need to be made no sooner than three months before your intended trip.

In order to process Russian tourist visas your travel company will need full UK passports for you and your partner; these must have at least two pages free and should still be valid six months after your trip to Russia. You will need to enclose a signed and completed application for each of you, together with a passport sized photo, attached to the form’s bottom left hand corner.

Depending on the individual travel company, you will either need to enclose a cheque for the full amount of the visa costs, or you may have the option to make the payment online, and you can leave the rest up to them.

Russia is a vast country that is stretched between the Pacific Ocean and the Eastern European borders. If you are only in the country for a few days, then the historic, capital city of Moscow is a must, here in the centre you will find the famous Red Square and the Kremlin and not too far away is the world famous Bolshoi Ballet.

The population of the city of Moscow is growing all the time and is counted the biggest metropolises in the world. During the communist regime, Russia’s shops were empty, but that has changed, particularly in this vital city where you can find top designer boutiques, although things might be more expensive than at home.

If you are looking for something different then perhaps a Baltic cruise would suit you better, providing the cruise takes less than thirty days you can still travel to Russia on one of the tourist visas.

Some Baltic cruises are bound for the beautiful Russian city of St. Petersburg with its palaces, cathedrals and fantastic sense of history.  Whether you are looking for a business trip, a pleasure trip or a bit of both, if you are male then you can go on one of the group tours and enjoy lots of fun and games, and even meet some ladies.

The pleasure come business tours are suitable for single males or for young men intent on enjoying European football trips. Some travel companies even run tours for sports teams and gymnastics troupes who would like to see more of Russia’s historic cities once their games and displays are finished.

Group tours like those just mentioned are ideal if you want to combine sightseeing with some business or even to find yourself a date. Gymnastic and sports groups who plan on being in the country for more than thirty days may have to apply for their Russian visas through the embassy, if a group has been invited to perform in Russia then the visa process should go smoothly.

If you are a traveller from a foreign country, you need to have the right kind of passport and once you meet the requirements, you are issued a visa by the Indian High Commission. Foreigners need to have an India visa and if the traveller is a resident of India, they need to carry an official document.

If you are a British passport holder, desiring to travel to Goa, you need to enquire into the visa service of the country as Indian authorities do not permit travellers who are travelling on Charter Flights. To make an application for an Indian visa, you need to keep sufficient time at hand before travelling.

For example, if you have finally confirmed your trip to India, but haven’t booked your tickets yet, you must think of obtaining your Goa visa instead of waiting for the booking to complete. Online or postal applications are also accepted, and for a detailed overview, you need to visit our comprehensive India Visa guide page.

Personal applications for India visas need to be done by visiting the Visa Application Centre. For applying in the peak tourist season, you can expect long delays. However, your visa application will be taken through a shorter diversion if you take the help of an authorized agent like us who knows about the ins and outs of the process.

As the Goa visa needs to be presented at various points of entry of the state, it is best that you apply for it beforehand so that it is ready by the time you are visiting the state. Your visa is valid for a total of 6 months from the date of issue. You may apply for the India visas by post, in person or with the help of the appropriate visa agency. If you are going for the visa application process in person, you must ensure that you have fixed an appointment with the India Visa Application Centre. The application should be submitted over the counter.

Once the visa officer goes through all your documents and finds them suitable, you can safely acquire your Goa visa. However, you must beware of the annoyances of the task, as lots of tourists are likely to be swindled by fake agents and hoodlums. There are also travel agencies that promise real Goa India visas but are not true to their word. On locating a reliable agency that offers these services, you can safely go ahead with the formalities involved and look forward to a pleasant stay in one of India’s most exciting tourist destination
