Faction Affiliation: non. I`m an independant smuggler who works for whoever pays me. except the RM and LN. they stole my profit. bunch of warmonging idiots.
Full explanation of visit's purpose: I`m looking around for new trade routes and businesspartners. It`s getting a tad hot up north so I was thinking that maybe the SCRA could offer me some fine employment oppertunities in the lower side of Sirius.
References from Coalition officials: none. I`ve never visited your fine system before. I feel that now is the time to do so.

Privet, sir.
Your references seem up to scratch, and we fully understand the need for the revolutionaries of Rheinland to be supplied with hardware to use against both the fascist Rheinland Military and capitalist Liberty Navy.

Unfortunately, due to your mercenary nature, we are in no position to be trusting you in the slightest. We are the Revolution, not business partners. Our workers will not be exploited by your profiteering, smuggler.

Full explanation of visit's purpose: We seek diplomatic relations and goodwill with the SCRA and trade. I can also provide medical and dental services as needed.
References from Coalition officials: None personally although in the past TAZ has had cool relations and respect for the SCRA. As many of us live on Gran Canaria and are neighbors, I feel we should at least communicate.
With respect,

Privet, sir.
Before we can issue any form of visa to yourself, we would need to receive specific details regarding supplies and similar which you were wanting to procure. Due to your people's generally anarchist habits of allowing anyone aboard your Freeports, we like to take every safety precaution.
We would also like to know where you were planning to deliver any supplies taken from our home, as we know that your people often have dealings with states which we are at war with, such as the Corsairs, whom you share Gran Canaria with.
At present we do not dock on Zoner bases, due to tensions with various Zoner-affiliated individuals, tensions with Corsairs, Bounty Hunters and other sorts which use such ports, as well as the inherent difficulties in diplomatically dealing with your anarchical political system, exemplified by your Council of Zoners' approach to direct democracy.
Generally, right now, our access to trained medical professionals is rather high, Mykolaiv Research Station training such experts in various fields to a very respectable level of skill. However, that is not to say we do not appreciate the offer, and should a visa be issued, an exchange of ideas would be most welcome, our doctors and nurses would likely be able to learn a lot from yourself, and vice-versa. We have never considered knowledge of medicine, surgery and similar to be military secrets.
Hello Lieutenant Andropov. I'd wish to apply for a Visa for Omega 52. You might never have heard of me, but i of you. Sometimes i think our targets aren't that different. I believe it would be good to meet somewhere, and discuss.
Name of ship's pilot/captain: You might understand, in my profession it can be bad to scream around names.
However, if we become friends, i'll tell you my name. Just not now.
Name of vessel(s): Black.Velvet
Class of vessel(s): Waran Bomber
Faction Affiliation: Freelancer/Pirat ID
Full explanation of visit's purpose:
As stated above, i'd wish to learn more about you and your work, as i'm fascinated by you. I believe it would benefit both of us if we meet.
References from Coalition officials: None. Yet.
Hopefully, you grant me that Visa so we can meet.
Thank you for your attention.

Dear Madam,
Your application for a visa has been categorically denied. We require information and paperwork before we issue such documents. We don't work with such obvious counter-revolutionary spies and misfits.
Next time you address us, likely from a prison cell, have the good sense to introduce yourself when making requests of us.

Greetings, Lieutenant,
As I have never been to your base, I have no clue even what is available for trade nor do I know what you may need so it would be difficult to answer that question. I do understand your not wanting your supplies delivered to your enemies. I can only pledge not to.
My main reason for a visa was to establish relations as we are in neighboring systems. We may have our differences but perhaps developing trust between us may be a good step forward.
And yes, I do think medical exchange could be beneficial to us all. My main profession being in dentistry, I still have much to learn on the medical front having only gained the certification a short time ago. I try to learn and teach something to and from everyone wherever I go. It's part of the hipocratic oath I long ago took.
Thank you for your time,
Dr. John Henry Holliday

Guten Tag,
It is my pleasure to say that all of the successful visa applicants from Rheinland that have applied over the past days and weeks will now find their visa arriving via their neural net channels. Our list of currently issued visas is available for public viewing. Please remember that our quartermasters will unfortunately be unable to provide you with spacecraft or weapons for fighter-class vessels. Fortunately, however, we do have surpluses of various supplies which we will be happy to provide you with.

Privet, Ambassador Holliday,
At present, we are discussing your visa application with intelligence and command, due to a general mistrust of certain groups harboured by many within our governmental hierarchies.
Please be assured that the delay is not for any personal reason, but largely due to a desire for security held by our defence forces. Some are of the opinion that ambassadorial delegations often harbour spies, others resent the large presence of our enemies on Planet Gran Canaria, seeing this a reason to deny an embassy.
However, we do of course see many positives too, and have heard nothing to indicate that you, as an individual, have any threatening intentions.
