To enter Tibet, you'll need to apply for a Tibet Travel Permit. If you plan to visit areas outside Lhasa, you'll also require an Alien's Travel Permit issued by the PSB of Tibet. Since the PSB only issues permits to Chinese travel agencies, independent travelers must book their tours through a travel agency to obtain this permit. Just China Tours can manage all your permit applications when you book a tour with us. The government service fee for the permits is approximately $7-$10 per person.

Known as the Roof of the World, Tibet is one of the highest places on Earth, and visitors from lower elevations may experience altitude sickness due to its high altitudes. Most people only face minor symptoms like headaches, loss of appetite, and low energy while their bodies adjust, which can take a few hours to a few days.
To minimize these symptoms, some simple preparations can help. Being healthy and fit before your trip is beneficial, and it's advisable to discuss AMS pills with your doctor to aid in preventing altitude sickness. Once in Tibet, walk slowly, take deep breaths, and rely on your tour guide for assistance and advice.
