A tourist visa allows travelers to visit a foreign country for leisure, sightseeing, and recreation purposes. It is typically granted for a short duration and does not permit any employment or business activities. Applicants must provide proof of financial means, travel itinerary, accommodation details, and a return ticket. Some countries may also require travel insurance and an invitation letter if visiting friends or relatives. A tourist visa enables travelers to explore new destinations, experience diverse cultures, and enjoy international attractions. The duration and validity depend on the host country’s immigration policies and the traveler’s nationality.
