How to Get a Tourist Visa to Yemen
in January
2010, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Yemen announced that they will no
longer be issuing visas on arrival to the country. A report released by the
Ministry stated that in an effort to fight terrorism and strengthen security
measures to prevent the infiltration of terrorist elements into the country,
the granting of visas at airports to foreigners will be cancelled .
That has
left many individuals confused – they are keen to visit Yemen yet unsure of how
to get a tourist visa to the country. There are several ways this can be done,
one of which involves the embassies abroad in the individuals’ residential
countries. These Yemeni embassies can issue tourist visas for whoever applies
which is then procedurally followed up by a standard security check. Some other
embassies may ask you to bring special documents such as an invitation from
Yemen or a “no-objection entry paper” stamped by the Ministry of the Interior.
These
methods are tried and true and can prove beneficial for many visitors but what
about those that just can’t make it to a nearest Yemeni embassy? Do they miss
out on the wonders of Yemen? The short answer is no! The simplest yet safest
method to gain a tourist visa to Yemen is through a friendly travel agent.
Applying for a Tourist Visa
will issue a tourist visa for their clients wishing to
take advantage of complete tour packages that typically include accommodation
for the period of stay in Yemen, a tour guide and itinerary for the sightseeing
and tourist attractions around the country. Furthermore, is committed to making sure that their
clients will depart Yemen safely at the end of their tour .
