To get the special permit for the border areas with China, go to the soldiers at the exit of the city with a photocopy of your passport. It costs only T 3,000 and does not take long. It is necessary to get it to enter the Altai Tavan Bogd National Park. Agencies can take care of it for you, but they often ask for a prohibitive price (20 000 T or more), so it is better to take care of it yourself!
