Below is a partial list of websites that might provide information of this sort as well as point you to legal resources that might help you. These are “consumer-oriented” websites as opposed to the more academically oriented websites linked to from much of our site, but they may nonetheless be useful to researchers interested in understanding the visa and immigration regimes of different countries.
