Before you go
- You get the visa at the border or airport, so there is no embassy visit beforehand. Have the fee ready, because some countries take only cash or a specific currency.
- Check that your passport has enough validity and blank pages. Photos and proof of onward travel can be asked for.
- Some airlines ask to see your right to enter before boarding, so carry any printed rules. If the country also offers an online option, it can save time at the desk.
- Queues at busy airports can be long. Allow extra time on arrival.
