MOFA advice to travellers

The MOFA advised travellers looking for comprehensive information on visas to go to the ministry's website. The official website of the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs, and Port Security is another source for people looking for further information about visa requirements.

For additional information, travellers may also get in touch with their specific carriers. While more than of the world's nations allow entry without prior visa arrangements, citizens of 115 still need to obtain a visa.
