Does Vanuatu have a visa on arrival?

No. Vanuatu grants visa-free entry to exempt nationalities with a stamped permit; there is no paid visa on arrival. Non-exempt travellers need an eVisa before flying.

What documents do I need for Vanuatu?

A passport valid for at least six months, a confirmed return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and evidence of sufficient funds. We review each document before you travel.

How long can I stay in Vanuatu?

The initial visitor permit is usually 30 days and can be extended in Port Vila up to a maximum of 120 days.

Do I need to apply online before travelling to Vanuatu?

Exempt nationalities are stamped in on arrival, so no prior visa is needed. Non-exempt nationalities apply for an eVisa online before travel.

How long is a Vanuatu visa valid and how long can I stay?

The Vanuatu Visa-Free Visitor Permit permits a stay of Up to 30 days and is valid for On arrival (single entry). Make sure your passport has at least six months of validity remaining from your date of arrival, as this is the most common reason Vanuatu applications are refused.
