Passport & Visa ▼
A tourist visa for
Myanmar can be obtained from any Myanmar Embassy or
Consulate world- wide. Visas are valid for 28 days can be
issued the same day (sometimes within 20 minutes) they are
applied for.
Two types of visa are available –the "FIT visa" and the
"Package Tour Visa". An "FIT visa" requires the holder to
purchase $300 worth of Foreign Exchange Certificates (FEC)
upon arrival. Within Myanmar, FEC are interchangeable with
US Dollars (FEC1=US$1) but they cannot be changed back into
US Dollars at the end of your stay. If traveling on a "
Package Tour Visa " no such FEC purchase is required.
If you have pre-booked your holiday to Myanmar through a
tour Operator, a letter can be obtained from a local agent
in Myanmar confirming to the relevant Myanmar Embassy that a
" Package Tour Visa" should be issued.
