    Review date recorded; current rules still need confirmation.

    Check the source's passport, residence, travel purpose and territorial scope; this link alone does not establish that it covers your case.

Still to establish

  • No passport list is encoded for comparison. Check your passport with the authority; omission does not mean exclusion or exemption.
  • No stay limit is encoded for comparison. Confirm the permitted stay, how days are counted and any cumulative limits.
  • No travel purpose is encoded for comparison. Describe your actual activities to the authority before choosing a category.

Prepare and verify

  1. Check who must complete the declaration, any exemptions and the official submission window.
  2. Prepare the information the authority requests and keep any confirmation in the format it specifies.

Your next checks

  1. Write down the passport you will use and its type, your country of residence and your planned activities. Residence and interface language do not replace passport nationality.
  2. List arrival and departure dates, transit stops and entry points. Check each leg separately, including whether you pass immigration during transit.
  3. Open the official instructions for that profile. Record the required documents, submission window, fees and processing guidance; mark anything the source does not confirm as unresolved.
  4. If a condition is unclear, contact the competent authority with your passport country, residence, purpose and dates. Recheck before departure and after a passport or itinerary change.
What else should I know?

Completing an arrival card does not replace a required visa, grant permission to stay or demonstrate visa exemption.

Automatic translation. The official authority's source takes precedence.

Who can apply

Prepare and verify

  2. Submit the information within the 72 hours before arrival.
  3. Check the applicable visa or OCI status separately.
  • The declaration is not a visa and does not replace OCI/eOCI status. The portal indicates submission within the 72 hours before arrival.
