# Business Visas As of this writing (Jan 2019), the process to renew your business visa is relatively simple. Depending on which travel agency you use, they have a bit of varied requirements but to be safe, here is the full list as currently known: 1. Secure an employment contract from the Chief Culture Officer (aka @erika). This includes: your designation, current salary, start date, signature by Management, stamped. Printed on company letterhead. 2. Print a copy of your signed employment contract 3. Prepare a few passport-sized photos 4. About $300 cash Just present all the requirements to your travel agency of choice. Keep the receipt for you to claim back your passport. Processing takes anywhere between 8 -10 days. Once you've retrieved your passport, submit the receipt to Finance for reimbursement during the next salary schedule. Suggested travel agency is [World Pop Travel & Tour](https://goo.gl/maps/Q5Pq7L4ghX72). NOTE: Government policy re business visa renewals may change as they please. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
