Overview and
Procedures for Business Visa Applications
Global movement of employees
requires systems that ensure accurate and timely management
of visas.Our global visa services include GlobalChek®,
a web-accessible tool that helps HR departments and
employees evaluate, prepare, file and track international
visas. GlobalChek® offers around the clock ability
to determine whether a visa is needed for overseas travel
or employment and identifies the documents required
for the application process. It also delivers detailed
information on the entire visa application procedure,
including processing times.
GlobalChek®
asks some basic questions regarding the destination country,
traveller's nationality, length of stay, and the purpose of
the trip. GlobalChek® then provides a "YES"
or "NO" answer as to whether a visa is required.
If
a visa is required, GlobalChek® provides questionnaires
and country-specific document checklists. These items
allow you to immediately start the visa application
process, once your company provides authorization to
Berry, Appleman & Leiden. GlobalChek® is also
a valuable tool to check visa requirements for trips
still in the planning stages.
Should
a visa be necessary for a short business trip or a work
assignment, Berry, Appleman and Leiden's Global Visa
Group is at your disposal.
