Well , you need to apply for a passport first before you can apply for any visa for any country you are going or planning to visit.

When that part is over, next step would be a visa. There are different type of visa, tourist, working, student, missionary, spousal, etc. And each of this visa have different requirements.

The alien registration card can only be acquired when you arrived at the country and if and only if you plan to stay for 100 days or more. If your length of stay is less than that, you are not required to apply for an ARC( alien registration card ).
