About the scheme
The APEC Business Travel Card scheme is an important initiative that commenced permanent operations in March 1999. Developed in response to the need for business people to gain streamlined entry to other economies, it contributes to APEC's goal of free and open trade within the Asia-Pacific region.

Benefits
Through a single application form, the scheme allows accredited business people to obtain an APEC Business Travel Card for multiple short-term visits to other APEC economies over a three year period. This saves business people the time and effort involved in applying for individual visas or entry permits each time they wish to travel for business.
About the size of a credit card, the APEC Business Travel Card is valid for 3 years and provides the holder with a two or three month stay in an APEC economy that is a full member of the scheme.
