Details to have ready

Use these details in the official checker or application. This is a decision worksheet, not a universal document checklist.

• Exact passport or travel-document type, subtype, issuer and expiry date
• Tourism, visit, business, study, work or transit—and the activity you actually plan
• Arrival date, departure date and total intended stay
• Air, land or sea route, entry point and every connection
• Country of residence and any existing visa, residence permit or special status that may change eligibility
• For transit: airport, whether you pass border control, collect baggage or change airports, and the onward destination

Fees, timing and permission validity

Specific values appear only when the current route is tied to a dated official field. Otherwise use the official service to record the value for your application.

Transit and transport need a separate check

A through-ticket does not by itself answer the immigration question. Use the official source with your complete airport and baggage plan.

• Will you pass border control?
• Will you collect and re-check baggage?
• Will you change airports or terminals?
• What passport, onward destination and supporting visa or residence document will you use?
