Before you go
Passport type split
Ordinary passports can follow a different short-stay rule from diplomatic, official, service, or special passports. Confirm the exact document class on the official source before assuming the same rule applies across passports.
Trip purpose and stay length
These checkpoints are for short visits only. Work, study, residence, crew, family reunification, and other long-stay travel should be checked through the destination's separate permission flow.
Documents to prepare
Have passport details, itinerary, accommodation or host information, and any residence-status, employment, or invitation records ready before you use the official checker or start an application.
