In October I will be going from Europe (Germany) to Canada and then continuing to Buffalo before flying to Miami. I will leave my rental car at the Canadian side of Niagara Falls and cross the rainbow bridge in the evening by foot.   I will not have a visa because ESTA only applies for boat/airplane travels. Will they care if I just get there with my luggage and without a car and apply directly for a visa or is it a normal procedure? Can I prepare something (visa application etc.)?

Suppose I'm in Canada visiting the Niagara Falls. Now I want to walk over the Rainbow bridge to visit the American side of the falls. Do I need a visa for this? Or is there any special onsite visa for this purpose?  So I general: Do the same visa rules apply when walking over the Rainbow bridge as entering USA on a normal border?

I have looked it up and the resources all talk about schengen visa, travelling with eu national family member etc. so I would like to get a more assuring answer about my situation:   I am a non-EU national with an Italian residence permit. My father is an Italian citizen. I will be travelling to Sofia and Bucharest next month with my girlfriend who is a British citizen. Do I need to get a visa to enter these two cities?

I am an Australian citizen, currently studying in Canada.   I entered the United States In July 22nd for 3 days, where I stayed in Seattle before leaving to return to Vancouver. I then again entered the states on 11th of October and returned on the 18th of October.  On October 19th my original and first Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), expired. I was under the impression that if I was to travel into the United States again I would have to apply for another ESTA and start the 90 days again, which I was planning on around December the 10th. In addition to this I am flying into Los Angeles on the 17th of December 2014 (where I plan to travel around the USA until flying out of Los Angeles again on 18th of January back to Australia).  However, after speaking to friends and looking at the website I have become confused on what my next course of action should be.  I am told that I cannot apply for another ESTA and be granted another 90 days visit into the USA, whilst I am in Canada and thus not be able to take any of my flights.  What would be the most appropriate action so that I can take my flights leaving North America and also travel the United States?

I am planning to drive to Niagara Falls to see it from the Canadian side. I have heard good things about seeing it from the other side. So, I want to stay in Toronto for a day, see Niagara Falls and come back.  I have a green card, and, my wife is a citizen from US.  I have read this link, , and this doesn't talk about person with a green card. So, could you advise if I can go to the Canadian side or give me links on this one?  I am on an Indian passport.  EDIT: My experience: We went there at around 7:30 in the morning to avoid the long queue. The border security official asked us to give us our passports, I have given my green card as well with the passport, she asked the purpose of our visit and how many days we were planning to stay. The whole process took around 10 minutes, 7-8 minutes for waiting and 2-3 minutes with the official.

Here is the situation. I am non-european but staying in Germany with a Residence permit. I can visit all Schengen listed countries with no issue. Assuming that I would want to travel to a non-Schengen country e.g. UK or USA, can I use my residence permit to travel there or am I required to apply as a citizen of my country? Assuming Germans are not required to pay Visa fees to that country, will I have to pay since I only have a residence permit? Third case, Europeans can fly directly to the airport of some countries and apply for a visa from there. In some other countries, you are required to book a Visa appointment at the embassy, which may be granted or not. Does that apply for one with a residence permit?

I am an Indian national. Right now I am staying in Israel. I will be moving to Germany on the last week of this month with german national visa directly from tel aviv. Ticket price of direct flight is high. So I am thinking to buy either Air France or LOT for travelling having layover at Paris or Poland. Am I allowed to do that? I mean is it mandatory to enter in Germany first? May I travel with these airlines with proper transit visa?

I am currently holidaying in USA and have entered the states on a ESTA visa waiver, I booked my return ticket two weeks after the 90 day ESTA expires (my fault) naively thinking it wasn't a big deal, I went on a short visit (3 days music festival) to Quebec from Maine, upon re-entering the states the border protection official made it quite clear that I would have to return to Australia when the 90 days are up.  Now I am only on holidays and have no medical emergency, but I am having a great time sailing here, is there anything I can do to extend my stay (14 days) to the date of my pre purchased plane departure ?

I am thinking of visiting Victoria, BC in Canada and then going to Seattle, WA in the US, with the .  I am a national of a country under the Visa Waiver Program. I think that if I enter by air, I need to fill an ESTA form. If I enter by car, I don't need one, I can fill a form when crossing the border.  With the ferry, what is the procedure? Should I necessarily have an ESTA?

I know that in the US foreigners must have a US visa if they have a connection in the US, even if they fly from a different country to a different country. That is because in the US you have to go through passport control regardless of your final destination.  What is the situation in Canada? Does a person who would need a visa to enter Canada need a visa to connect through Canada without exiting the airport?

I applied and got approved for a Schengen visa with multiple entries to the Netherlands. On my application I noted a planned trip to Romania as well. Due to changes in itinerary (the trip is being paid for by my company) I'm now only traveling to Romania. Flights and hotels are booked and have been paid for by my company.  However, I have an extra weekend in Romania and I was thinking of flying to Rome overnight only: leave Romania on Saturday to travel to Rome, leave Rome on Sunday and travel back to Romania to complete my trip.  Can I use my Schengen multiple-entry visa despite not having the Netherlands as part of my itinerary anymore?

I’m a Filipino citizen. My flight goes from Vancouver to Manila via Tokyo Haneda. I will arrive in Japan at 6pm then depart at 9am the next day. I'm not planning to go out of the airport during my layover, so I don't see a need to have a transit visa. However, I called the Consulate-General of Japan here in Canada, and they asked me to get a transit visa.  Then I called the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Japan and asked them the same question.. at first, they told me I don’t need a visa as long as I stay inside the airport, but when I told them that the Consulate-General of Japan in Canada asked me to get a visa, they also asked me to get one.  I'm so confused. I would like to know your knowledge or experience regarding this.

I am a Indian citizen in the United States on a F-1 visa.  For the summer break, I am traveling (round-trip) from Chicago to New Delhi via Dusseldorf-Frankfurt by Lufthansa airlines. My onward Journey would be on July - 8 and return Journey on Aug - 11.  My layover will be of 1 hour 10 mins in Frankfurt and 3 hours in Dusseldorf.  I would like to know if I require Category A or Category B Visa. If not, what type of visa do I require for the Schengen visa for my transit. How I can apply for the same?  I tried to find slots in German consulate but all slots are full before my departure date. If I don't get the Schengen visa, I cannot travel and will loose all the fare (since my ticket is a non-refundable ticket). Is there any other way I can tackle this situation.

I have a single entry visa to Schengen countries(type c). I will be traveling to Norway from Toronto, Canada. I will stay for a week, then I will travel to Germany. My flight from Norway to Germany will have a transit in London. Will this be a problem with my Single Entry Visa? Will I be able to enter Germany even if I have a transit in London?

I'm currently working in Canada as a Canadian citizen and planning on travelling to a few places in Europe for six weeks.  I am also going to continue working remotely full time.  Is there any legal problems with this that I should know about?   Do I need to apply for a visa or is six weeks a small enough time that it's not necessary?  The countries I'm planning on visiting are:  Greece, Croatia, Hungary, Czech Republic, and Germany.  Though I might cut one or two of these to simplify things a bit
