Purpose: Tourist visas are issued for the purpose of leisure travel, such as sightseeing, vacationing, or visiting friends and family. Business visas, on the other hand, are intended for individuals traveling for professional or commercial purposes, such as attending meetings, conferences, or exploring business opportunities.
Activities Permitted: Tourist visas typically restrict travelers from engaging in any form of paid work or business activities during their stay. Business visas, however, allow individuals to conduct business-related activities, such as attending meetings, conferences, negotiations, or exploring potential investments.
Documentation Required: The documentation requirements for tourist and business visas may vary. While both types of visas usually require a valid passport and completed application forms, business visas may also require additional documentation such as invitation letters from business partners, proof of conference registration, or a letter from the applicant's employer outlining the purpose of the trip.
Duration of Stay: Tourist visas typically grant shorter stays compared to business visas. Business visas may allow for longer stays to accommodate the duration of business-related activities, meetings, or projects.
Applicability: The applicability of tourist and business visas depends on the traveler's intended activities and the regulations of the destination country. Some countries offer separate visa categories for tourism and business purposes, while others may have combined visas or specific visa types tailored to different types of travel.
