How it works
Each branch uses the linked government checklist. Required, conditional and supporting items are labelled separately. Residence and application location can change which checklist applies. The Schengen branch is specifically for Netherlands tourism applications in China; Japan covers ordinary single-entry tourism.
Tick boxes to track preparation, then explicitly save progress on this device, download a text copy or print. Changing the filters resets the current ticks. Saved progress stays in this browser until cleared; no documents are stored or submitted.
Fees are dated reference amounts, not all-in quotes. Edit the amount for your category; currencies are not converted. Japan’s amount is a general yen equivalent, paid in local currency. Fee displays round to two decimal places; item counts are exact. Processing estimates are not appointment availability or promises of a decision.

IRCC branches by purpose and gives a personalized portal checklist. This organizer supports tourism and ordinary family visits, not the parent or grandparent super visa. A family visit adds invitation and relationship evidence to prepare for the relevant portal branch. The starting fee does not include any biometrics charge, and the processing estimate varies by application country.
