What is a Visa on Arrival
A Visa on arrival is a type of travel authorization that allows visitors to obtain a visa upon arrival at their destination country, instead of applying for and securing the visa before traveling. With a visa on arrival, travelers can enter the country by presenting their passport and relevant documents at the port of entry, such as an airport or border crossing, where immigration officials will issue the visa.
Requirements for Getting a Visa on Arrival
- Filling out an application form upon arrival
- Providing a valid passport with a minimum remaining validity (often six months)
- Paying a visa fee (usually in cash, and sometimes only in the local currency)
- Providing passport-sized photos (in some cases)
- Showing proof of onward travel or a return ticket
- Presenting evidence of sufficient funds for the duration of the stay
- Submitting additional supporting documents, such as hotel reservations or an invitation letter
