Tourist sites advise to learn the official embassy site to simplify the process of obtaining a visa. Indeed, on the information resource you can find all the necessary information. True, it does not increase the likelihood of obtaining a visa - in our list of the country, to get into which travelers are not easy.
Australia
The main difficulty in obtaining an Australian visa is to collect and prepare documents. It is necessary not only to attach the original documents to the online statement, but also to make their translation into English - the statement of Russians from March 2019 is considered in Belgrade, Serbia. Contrary to the myths of inexperienced travelers, in the embassy you will not require notarized copies, except for the "birth certificate, marriage, divorce, death, consent to the child's departure," as indicated on the official website.
However, it will have to sit on the summary - this is a questionnaire that will indicate your education and work experience, starting from 18 years. Even volunteer activity, service in the army, and gaps in the resume explain to specific reasons. An embassy worker can send your response request with a request to pass a medical examination or attach a certificate of the absence of a criminal record if he has questions. In comparison with the process of obtaining a European visa, it will all take 5-6 times more forces.
Iraq
In the country, for more than a decade, they do not remove a martial law, because of which tourist access to Iraq is actually prohibited. You can get there only by inviting from the local organization - most often the trip is justified by working goals. Travelers noted that it is difficult to negotiate with Iraqis - the process will take at least a couple of months, and you will have to pay a lot of money. It will be easier to get to Kurdistan - the region in the north of Iraq with a separate entry system. You can apply for a visa online that significantly speeds up the entire procedure.
Turkmenistan
Although Turkmenistan used to be part of the Soviet Union and missed the members of the Union through its borders, with the destruction of the USSR, to get here much more difficult. Now Turkmenistan has no regime of visa-free entry with any of the worlds. The traveler's invitation can only get from the local company on the organization of tours, but this does not guarantee the approval of the visa by the embassy. Almost a hundred percent of cases for a long procedure should be denied. So the Moscow designer Artemy Lebedev, who traveled the whole world, was able to get to Turkmenistan only with the fifth attempt.
Equatorial Guinea
Spanish colony, rich in oil reserves, becomes the desired goal for avid travelers primarily because of its closedness. To get to Equatorial Guinea will cost you $ 200 consular fees, certificates of the absence of criminal record (in English!) And bought from local invitations. Since the invitation to the resident of Africa will have to wrap in the authorities, and then send you the original, the process will take 3-4 months. In comparison with this, it is unreasonably the high cost of the flight, rooms at the hotel and the need to fill the visa questionnaires will seem poorly.
Yemen
The civil war of the local with the government does not stop since 2014, as a result of which the country's visit becomes a dangerous ventilation. It is impossible to get a visa to the mainland territory of the country, the only option is to buy a tour on the nearest Socotra Island. Local travel agency is ready to send an official invitation to which you can sit on board and fly to Yemen, and after getting a visa in place. Risk or not - your choice, but it is worth noting that there are still little travelers there.
