Good to know
- The e-Visa is valid only at designated entry ports. Arriving elsewhere means being refused boarding or entry.
- Upload specifications for the photo and passport scan are strict, and a failed upload is the most common cause of rejection.
- Names must match the passport exactly, including every middle name.
- Protected and restricted areas need a separate permit that the e-Visa does not cover.
Requirements vary by nationality
We do not publish an automated eligibility check — the rules change too often for that to be honest. A consultant confirms your exact checklist in writing before any work starts.
