Ulaanbaatar, Sep 19 (SocialNews.XYZ) Mongolia's Immigration Agency announced on Thursday that it has begun issuing all categories of visas electronically.
In line with the government's objective to streamline visa issuance and improve service delivery for foreigners visiting Mongolia for official or personal reasons, all 54 categories of visas issued by Mongolia's Immigration Agency, based on inviter requests, are now available electronically, the agency stated.
The move is part of the Mongolian government's efforts to promote the development of the tourism sector. Inviter requests can be submitted directly through the department's official website, Xinhua news agency reported.
