China visa and Tibet permit
"As a brilliant gem shining in western China, Tibet Autonomous Region has a thriving tourism industry that contributes to its rapid development. This high plateau - the roof of the world, welcomes constant foreigners every year for its unparalleled natural landscape and marvelous cultures. However, travel to Tibet Autonomous Region is thoroughly different from travel to the rest of China for international travelers, and a valid Chinese visa is not enough to travel Tibet.
The million-dollar question every traveler concerns about: how do I enter Tibet? Tibet has never been an easy place to visit, where it is impossible for independent travel. Restrictions demand foreign travelers to get the Tibet Tourism Bureau (TTB) permit to step into Tibet, together with Tibet travel permit (Alien travel permit) to visit restricted areas like Mt Everest. These days foreign travelers can easily pre-arrange Tibet tours through a local Tibet travel agency and rely on it to get all the permits.
With an office set up in Lhasa, we help take care of the permit applications and provide expert’s guides, covering how to apply for a Chinese visa, how to get the Tibet permit, travel police for different passport holders, and so on. Travelers can easily follow these guides to prepare their necessary travel documents to Tibet, then take the train or flight to reach Lhasa."
