Business Travel The APEC Business Travel Card (ABTC) allows business travelers pre-cleared, facilitated short-term entry to participating member economies. The ABTC removes the need to individually apply for visas or entry permits, saving valuable time, and allows multiple entries into participating economies during the three years the card is valid. Card holders also benefit from faster immigration processing on arrival via access to fast-track entry and exit through special APEC lanes at major airports in participating economies.
The APEC Business Travel Handbook is a practical tool which provides a quick reference guide to the visa and entry requirements of APEC Member Economies. It lists the basic eligibility criteria and procedures for applying for visas and the terms and conditions that apply to business travelers. This information is provided for both short-term business visits and temporary residence for business people in APEC Member Economies.
The Investment Experts Group maintains a set of links to investment-related information in APEC Economies and is geared to providing you with current additional information.
Tariffs The APEC Tariff Database contains applied tariff rates for thousands of products for most of APEC's 21 Member Economies, providing an ideal starting point for research into the pricing and environmental analysis components of your marketing strategy.
