Applicants create an account, complete the application, provide the requested information, pay online and keep the issued document for travel. The route does not remove passport, itinerary or entry checks.

Boundaries that matter

What this page does not promise

A private information page can help organise a travel file, but it cannot guarantee approval, a fixed processing time, a particular fee or entry. Do not use a visitor route for employment, residence or another activity that the issued permission does not cover.

  • A visitor eVisa is not work or residence permission.
  • No private service can guarantee issuance or entry.
