Mongolian visa outside home country?
Hi guys,
I am preparing for a trip through Europe, Turkey, the 'Stans, Mongolia and Russia next year. I think I have most of the Visa issues sorted out but I'm a bit concerned about Mongolia.
There dosen't seem to be too much talk around the Mongolia visa on the forums which hopefully means that it is reasonably straight forward. From the embassy website it appears that (as an Australian citizen) I can get a tourist visa valid for 30 days for $100. Unfortunately the visa is only valid for 3 months from date of issue which is cutting it very fine as we will be on the road for that long before we reach Mongolia. Am I right in presuming that 3 months includes the time I am in the country? Is it possible and reasonably easy to extend the 3 month period, or we make it to Mongolia within the 3 months then extend the visa once we are in the country?
Finally I couldn't find any information on applying for a Visa a Mongolian embassy on route. Has anyone done that?
Thanks and sorry if my questions have already been covered in the forums.
