About:Tibet Travel

Hello,
I would like to travel with my 14 y/o daughter to Lhasa to volunteer in an orphanage which is run by a tibetan Dr. here in the U.S. She is traveling back to Lhasa in August and has invited us to come at that time to volunteer. I noticed in the posts that individual citizens are not allowed to travel into to Tibet and that we should travel with a group through a travel agency. Can we travel with a group into the country and then stay in Lhasa to work in the orphanage?

Approximately how long does it take to apply for and receive a visa for Tibet?

Thanks!

How long are you going to volunteer in Lhasa? China tourist visa is short with duration of 30 days generally. If yes, you can apply for a tourist visa. But be aware that you need to apply for a Tibet Entry Permit as well.

Hello Ms. Sara,
We will likely be there no more than 10 days.. where do we apply for the Tibet Entry Permit?

How much time should I allow for applying for the visa and TEP?

Thanks you,
Shawn
