Is it expensive to eat in Mongolia?
Friends, the Mongolia I want to tell you today is either Inner Mongolia or pure Mongolia.
There are some pretty good attractions here, but it’s best to choose a good time to go.
Let’s take a look at the relevant visa and food information.
Official passports are visa-free for one month, but most people holding private passports need to apply for a visa to enter Mongolia!
Mongolian travel agencies, companies, and individuals can send invitation letters.
If not, it is best to ask an agent to handle it. The most expensive one is about 900-1,000 yuan, 800 yuan in Hohhot, and 500-600 yuan in Erenhot.
You can also search for agents on Mafengwo.
Preparation materials 1. The passport is valid for more than 6 months and has at least 2 blank pages.
2. Copy of passport (the nearest copy shop of the Beijing Embassy is at the entrance of the Second Visa Office of the US Embassy in the Northeast, about 400 meters away) 3.2-inch photo (white or blue background) 4. Invitation letter (Mongolian company or travel agency)
5. Payment requires a credit card, no cash is required (Beijing) visa fee, visa type ordinary visa fee (RMB), expedited visa fee (RMB) 270 yuan, 495 yuan per entry and exit visa.
Two entry and exit visas cost 970 yuan, 520 yuan, 180 yuan, and a transit visa costs 315 yuan.
The two transit visas are 315 yuan and 585 yuan respectively.
For more than half a year, this visa costs 1,215 yuan out of 630 yuan.
Two-month multiple visas cost 1,215 yuan and 2,385 yuan. Tips: Generally, one entry is 30 days, and sometimes the destination is 14 or 21 days.
Vehicle Procedures ATA Carnet The "Cargo Clearance Passport" required for entry and exit vehicles is called the ATA Carnet and is handled by the regional branch of the China Chamber of International Commerce.
ID card: see the original and keep a copy.
ATA carnet is only applicable to mainland Chinese residents holding ID cards.
Purchase invoice: see the original and keep a copy.
Mainly to prove the vehicle price.
Deposit: A deposit of 50% of the car price is required for a car over RMB 100,000, and a deposit of RMB 100,000 is required for a car under RMB 100,000.
40% for motorcycles, less than 100,000 yuan and less than 100,000 yuan.
However, the person in charge of the Erenhot International Chamber of Commerce is quite reasonable.
For motorcycles worth less than 100,000 yuan, a deposit based on the full purchase price can reduce the turnover burden.
I paid more than 10,000 according to the car purchase invoice.
You can send me a private message for the person in charge’s phone number, but I won’t include the personal contact information here.
After providing all the procedures and entering them into the system, go to the designated bank to pay the deposit to obtain the "ATA Carnet".
But the document book only solves the entry-exit problem of China Customs.
There are no agreements or regulations on the entry and exit of vehicles between China and Mongolia Customs Administration, so when you arrive at Mongolia Customs, you need to go through the procedures for the goods (vehicles) to enter and then exit the customs.
You also need to provide relevant passport and vehicle procedures, and then apply for a deposit of 10% of the goods.
When you leave the country during the registration time, you can go through customs clearance procedures with the deposit receipt.
Insurance SOS International Rescue Insurance: Because he was talkative and said he was riding a motorcycle to Mongolia, several SOS cooperative insurance companies were unwilling to provide insurance services.
In the end, I had no choice but to buy insurance in Mongolia.
The monthly premium is $165.
Choose SOS rescue insurance because it can cover transportation costs if you are injured and need to be transported back to your country.
To put it more seriously, if you are unlucky and have no food to eat abroad, you can still send your body back.
Photographic equipment We gave up all bulky choices when it came to equipment selection. Except for the following photographic equipment, we brought a laptop and a 2T hard drive to store the cleaning card.

Look at the picture and choose.
The prices are generally not too outrageous or expensive.
Of course, Mongolia mainly eats beef and mutton, with various cooking methods.
Fruits and vegetables are relatively expensive and the choices are limited, making it a paradise for tourists who are unhappy without meat.
If you want to go somewhere other than the capital, t omelet 600 tons 500 tons steamed buns Lipton black tea 500 tons milk tea 500 tons coffee 500 tons packaging boxes 400 tons other common fast food such as buns and meat boxes are about the same price as the rice set above.
The price of a hotel in Ulaanbaatar, the capital, is similar to that in some northern provincial capital cities in China, and many mobile booking apps can handle it.
Youth hostel rooms and beds can also be booked on those commonly used booking websites.
In order to save money and convenience, we all brought our own tents, air mattresses, sleeping bags and other camping pots and pans.
