1. Simplify visa application procedures and ensure the timeliness of business activities. With the travel card, cardholders can travel freely among APEC economies within five years without applying for an entry visa, which minimizes the cumbersome procedures for cardholders to apply for visas and eliminates visa uncertainty and visa rejections. Risk-free, ensuring that cardholders can freely arrange business time, which greatly improves the timeliness of business activities.

2. Reduce visa application fees and increase stay time abroad. The travel card is equivalent to a multiple five-year return visa for multiple countries among APEC economies. After holding this card, you do not need to pay any visa fees for five years, which greatly saves business costs. At the same time, cardholders can stay up to 60-90 days per entry, fully guaranteeing the time for enterprises to conduct business activities and paving the way for enterprises to expand overseas business.

3. Prioritize customs clearance procedures to improve corporate diplomatic treatment and international status. The travel card has been registered with the customs offices of each economy, so cardholders do not need to undergo questioning and check the authenticity of their visas when clearing customs. They only need to go through customs clearance through routine entry and exit procedures. At present, most Asia-Pacific countries' entry and exit offices have dedicated APEC channels. Cardholders have the convenience of priority processing and quick customs clearance, and enjoy the treatment of diplomatic passport holders, which improves the international status of enterprises. Although the United States and Canada do not accept APEC business travel card applications from other economies, they provide visa application and customs clearance convenience for cardholders.
