Bisnis.com, JAKARTA — Countries usually have regulations for visitors from other countries or tourists.
Some countries impose quite complicated regulations, so tourists find it difficult to vacation in these countries.
The regulations established are not without reason, but several circumstances require the state to establish these regulations.
For example, countries do not issue tourist visas for security and political reasons and some countries are under totalitarian regimes and are closed to the outside world.
Another situation is that the country is in a state of insecurity or in a war situation.
However, some countries have applications Visa which is difficult to navigate and discourages visa applicants from applying.
Here is a list of 10 countries that are difficult to visit:
1.Iran
Iran is definitely not one of the most difficult countries to reach compared to other countries.
The difficulty of entering Iran depends on the tourist’s country of origin.
US, Canadian and UK citizens will need to go through a few extra steps to obtain a letter of invitation from the Department of Foreign Affairs in order to apply for their next visa. Sometimes their applications are simply rejected.
Of course, if you have a European or Australian passport, the visa process is much simpler. In fact, you can get a visa upon arrival at the airport.
2. North Korea
North Korea is a country that most of us consider to be the most difficult country to visit in the world. So it might come as a surprise that it is actually quite easy to enter if one has a particular passport.
Independent travel is not permitted, so you must join an organized tour with a local guide and a set itinerary.
However, when it comes to visas, everything is handled by travel agencies. Visit it to get a glimpse into the daily life of this most secretive regime.
And please follow the rules. Entry into North Korea is currently not possible for U.S. and South Korean passport holders.
3. Russia
Russia is one of the most beautiful countries in the world. This country, mostly covered in snow, has its own attraction for foreign tourists.

One of them, the traveler must include a travel history of the last 10 years with details of the places visited, time and duration of stay in a country.
4. Cuba
Cuba is a country located in the Caribbean region. In fact, many people want to come there in January-February because at this time the country has a cool climate.

5. Libya
If you ask anyone in the travel world about Libya, you will get a blank stare. Years of turmoil and conflict in a country are usually the only things that come to mind.
Tourism was limited under Gaddafi’s regime, but after the 2011 Arab Spring, tourism was crippled by the ongoing conflict.
