Touring & Production Travel
Touring brings its own travel challenges. Fixed dates, multiple passports, different entry rules, and very little flexibility.
We're used to working within those constraints, coordinating visas and travel requirements so groups can move as planned.
Touring travel brings with it a set of practical considerations that don't usually apply to everyday travel.
Once you're dealing with fixed dates, multiple people and different passports, certain challenges become part of the landscape.
Typical challenges in touring travel
Multiple nationalities in one touring party
Different passports come with different entry rules.
Different passport holders have different visa requirements for the same destination. We identify what each person needs, coordinate applications, and manage the different timelines and embassy requirements involved.
Embassy appointments and processing times
Official timelines rarely match tour schedules.
Embassies work to their own schedules. Some require in-person appointments. Some take weeks to process. We plan around these constraints and factor them into your tour logistics well in advance.
Passports held during processing
A passport can only be submitted in one place at a time.
When someone's passport is at an embassy for one visa, but they need to travel somewhere else in the meantime, things get complicated. We coordinate timing, prioritise applications, and work out what's feasible given the constraints.
USA O and P visas for artists and support personnel
These applications require detailed petitions and supporting evidence.
O-1, O-2, P-1, and P-2 visas for the United States involve detailed petitions, supporting evidence, and coordination between agents, employers, and the artists themselves. We prepare the documentation, liaise with US counsel, and keep the process on track.
Last-minute changes and additions to touring parties
Tour plans change, but processing times don't.
Tours change. People get added. Itineraries shift. We handle the administrative consequences when plans need to adjust, working within whatever time you have available.
Complex multi-country tours
Each destination brings different visa requirements and timelines.
When a tour crosses several regions with different visa regimes, the planning becomes more involved. We map out the full picture, identify what needs to be done when, and coordinate the sequence of applications.
How we work on tours
Our approach is built around coordination, clear timelines, and managing the administrative detail.
Planning ahead
We look at the full tour schedule, work out what visa requirements apply, and build a timeline that accounts for embassy processing times, appointment availability, and your travel dates. The earlier we start, the more options we have.
Coordination across the group
We collect the necessary documents from each person, keep track of who needs what, and make sure nothing is missed. When you're dealing with a group of people with different nationalities and roles, this level of coordination matters.
Clear communication
You'll have a clear point of contact. We'll tell you what we need, when we need it, and what's happening with each application. If something changes or a problem arises, we'll let you know straightaway and explain the options.
Managing the details
Visa applications involve forms, supporting documents, photographs, payment confirmations, and correspondence with embassies. We handle the administrative side so you can focus on the actual work of the tour.
