| Tibet Travel Permit & PSB Permit
- Alien's Travel Permit |
 |
There are two kinds of permits for traveling in Tibet: the Tibet
Travel Permit (TTP permit) and the Alien's Travel Permit (PSB
permit). You can get them by ChinaTravelZ.com.
TTB Permit - Tibet Entry Permit
When you fly from any city to Lhasa you will need to show this
permit when you check in at the airport. Furthermore, whenever
you buy a flight to Lhasa you need to show this permit. TTB permits
are also needed by groups traveling by Land Cruiser but this will
be arranged by the travel agency organizing the trip. Here is
a picture of TTB permit.
PSB Permit - Alien's Travel Permit
If you want to go further to the "unopened" areas (such
as Mt. Kailash), you need an Alien's travel permit issued by PSB
of Tibet. It is called "Alien's Travel Permit" or "PSB
permit". Here is a picture of PSB permit.
How to get the Travel Permits?
To get a permit you should submit the following documents and
mention the following information to us.
Full Name / Gender / Date of Birth / Passport
Number / Nationality
All information must be exactly the same as on your passport.
And you need to tell us your occupation because journalists and
people that could be involved in political matters could be revoked
(they need more complicated procedure to get a permit). You need
to apply for the travel permit at least 8 days prior to your entry
date.
Other Documents
Other documents are the same as you travel to other places of
China - you need hold a valid passport with valid visa (issued
by Chinese Embassy). If you are coming to Lhasa from Katmandu,
you'd better get China visa from Katmandu because no matter you've
already got the visa in your country or not, you must get a visa
in Katmandu, which is regulated in an official memo between China
and Nepal. |
