How to read the result

"Likely eligible" means the entered details match a known visa-free framework in this site's current dataset. It still requires official verification before travel. "Check official source" means the tool cannot safely say yes from the current dataset.

FAQ

Is this an official visa decision?

No. It is a conservative planning tool. Final decisions come from official authorities, airlines, and border inspection.

Why does the tool say “check official source”?

Because entry rules can depend on route, port, passport type, date, purpose, stay area, and onward ticket. A cautious answer is better than a false yes.

Should I save proof of the rule?

Yes. Save the official page or embassy notice offline, especially if using a newer visa-free or transit policy.
