Good to know

  • Most travellers do not need a visa. Everyone still submits the electronic arrival card before entry.
  • Applications from visa-required nationalities must go through a local contact, sponsor or authorised agent.
  • The length of stay is granted at the checkpoint and can be shorter than the visa validity.
  • Medication rules are unusually strict; some common prescriptions need prior approval.

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We do not publish an automated eligibility check — the rules change too often for that to be honest.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.
