Invitations
Many countries require visa applicants to secure an invitation from a business, institution or person in that country. In most cases, a faxed copy of the invitation is acceptable; however, in some cases, the inviting party must send the invitation directly to that country’s Embassy in the U.S. In some cases such as Saudi Arabia, the invitation is usually telexed to the Embassy and faxed to the applicant. In such cases, submit the faxed copy of the invitation when applying for your visa.
