Do you want to go to the Tibet?
By the law of the People’s Republic of China, in addition to China visa, foreigners also need Tibet Travel Permit (Some people also call it Tibet Visa or TTB as it's issued by Tibet Tourism Bureau) to be able to board a train or plane to Lhasa. For this, you need to pre-arrange an itinerary through a legal travel agency in Lhasa before arriving in Tibet.
You also need other permits to travel outside Lhasa Prefecture, eg. Alien's Travel Permit & Military Permit, and you can currently only get these by hiring transportation and a guide as part of your itinerary.
If you plan to enter Tibet from Nepal, besides all the Tibet Permits, you will have to travel with China Group Visa, which can only be obtained through the joined effect of travel agencies in Lhasa & Kathmandu.
