Nick,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>there are a few websites like <a href="http://www.visahq.com/citizens/" target="_blank">http://www.visahq.com/citizens/</a> which collect visa requirements for all countries of origin and destination.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The information is not authoritative, may change over time (quite suddenly over time), there may be requirements that are not published officially by countries and not caught in these sites, etc. Some require you to show travel tickets while others emphatically
ask you not to buy them until you have the visa. And so on. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You have to check in each case also because country of nationality, of birth, and of residence may make a difference for any given destination.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A meatspace-Westphalia border gateway protocol that's hard to digest for Internet souls.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Yours,</div>

<div>
<div>On a related subject, is there anywhere that it is clear what exactly you need to bring with you to get your visa, for the different countries? Some countries don't need visas in advance, some do - it isn't at all clear to me; perhaps I'm looking in the
wrong place...<br>

<br>
<div>Dear Bill,<br>
<br>
Thanks for sorting out detailed required list of documents.<br>
<br>
Regarding the nature of this request, it is to arrange the pick up for the forum participants from the airport and ensure the proper planning of shuttle routes to the accommodation points.<br>
<br>
The only issue, causing the misunderstanding was that last email was sent not intentionally from the computer, which didn’t allow to our staff finish the email, without subject and the reason of the email.<br>
<br>
Again, just to reconfirm, the reason of the latest unfinished email (request for flight details<br>
and hotels) just for the free pick up from the airport to hotels on arrival of participants, which we are used to make during the international events.<br>
<br>
Again sorry for that, and kindly ask you to disseminate this email around your friends.<br>
<br>
>From our side, the corrected email will be sent to all the attendees again, on behalf of the Secretariat.<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
<br>
Nariman<br>
