Core Requirements for Tourist/Ordinary Visa

• Passport: Valid for at least 6 months with at least one blank page.
• Application: Duly filled-in and signed application form.
• Photo: A recent passport-size photograph.
• Return Ticket: Proof of return ticket or onward travel arrangements. Fee: Payment of the visa fee (varies by nationality, $50 for most, $100 for U.S. citizens).

Application Methods

• e-Visa: Highly recommended for faster processing. You will receive a "grant notice" via email, which you present upon arrival.
• Visa on Arrival: Available at major entry points (airports/borders). It is recommended to have USD cash for payment.

Specific Considerations

• Minors: Children under 18 traveling alone or with one parent require a notarized letter signed by both parents/legal guardians and a copy of their ID.
• Business/Other Visas: Require additional documentation, such as a letter from the organization or host, business registration documents, or contracts.
• Volunteer Work: Prohibited on a standard tourist visa; a Class "C" Residence Permit is required.
• Health: Travelers should check current yellow fever vaccination requirements.
