- For any purposes outside of tourism, you may need to investigate attaining a work visa or a study visa. Visas are not always “anything goes,” rather, you may be allowed into a country only for the purpose stated on your visa.
- This is not to say that you can’t spend a weekend on the beach when traveling for business, but the primary function of your trip should be whatever is stated on your visa.
