Immigrations formalities

All visitors to Myanmar are required to carry a valid passport and a Myanmar visa. The passports must be valid for six months beyond the intended stay. Visa applications may be made at any Myanmar Embassy or consulate. Tourist visas valid for three months are issued to independent (FIT) or group tour travelers (GIT). Single-entry tourist visas are available for 28 days, and may be extended in Myanmar. Applications for visa on arrival may only be made through licensed travel agencies registered in Myanmar. At the border, overland entry is permitted to Thai, Chinese and Indian tourists with border passes and to third party tourists with visa at designated checkpoints along Myanmar’s borders with Thailand, China and India. Prior permission is required for tourists entering the country through border checkpoints.
