Business or tourist — which applies to me?

Meetings, conferences, and negotiations are usually business; leisure travel is tourist.

If your trip involves meetings, conferences, training, or negotiations, the business category usually applies. Leisure travel falls under the tourist/visitor category.

Many destinations combine business and tourism under one short-stay visa. HeyVisa tailors guidance to the purpose you select.
