What this means
Visa on arrival means you complete the application when you land: expect a form, a fee (sometimes cash only — carry USD or the local currency), and occasionally passport photos. Queues can be long at busy airports.
Many visa-on-arrival countries also run an eVisa program that lets you skip the arrival queue — if the official source below offers one, it is usually the smoother option. Entry conditions (onward ticket, proof of funds, passport validity) still apply.
Before you travel
- Passport validity: many countries require your passport to be valid 3–6 months beyond your stay, with at least one blank page.
- Carry the visa fee in accepted currency (often USD cash) and spare passport photos.
- These rules cover short tourist/business visits on an ordinary passport. Work, study, residence, journalism, and diplomatic travel follow different rules.
- Connecting through another country? Check that country's transit rules separately.
