Upon landing at the international airport, you proceed to the dedicated Visa on Arrival counter, pay a nominal processing fee (payable in US Dollars or local currency), and receive your entry stamp:
Asia & Middle East

An eTA is not a visa; it is a rapid, automated digital travel authorization that links directly to your passport number before departure:
- Kenya (Digital eTA): Travelers must complete the online application via the official Kenyan government portal at least 72 hours prior to departure. The fee is approximately US $35, allowing entry for tourism or business wildlife safaris.
- Seychelles (Visitor Travel Authorization): Requires pre-flight digital registration through the Seychelles official travel platform. Approvals are typically issued within 12 to 24 hours.
- Sri Lanka (Online ETA): Issued electronically for up to 30 days for leisure travel and transit.
4. Mandatory Immigration Checklist at Border Control
Even when flying to a visa-free or visa-on-arrival destination, immigration officers retain statutory discretion to refuse entry if travel conditions are not met. Always ensure your travel folder contains:
[Passport Valid for Minimum 6 Months from Travel Date]
│
▼
[Confirmed Round-Trip or Onward Air Ticket with Active PNR]
│
▼
[Verified Hotel Vouchers Covering Full Duration of Stay]
│
▼
[Proof of Solvency: Cash (USD) & International Debit/Credit Cards]
│
▼
[Mandatory Yellow Fever or Polio Vaccination Cards (if required by region)]
- The 6-Month Rule: Never travel internationally on a passport with less than six months of remaining validity. Most airlines will deny boarding at Karachi, Lahore, or Islamabad airports.
- Proof of Subsistence: Border officials frequently ask travelers to show cash (typically $50 to $100 per day) or active international banking apps to prove they can finance their stay.
- Return Ticket: Standby or unconfirmed tickets are strictly rejected by airline check-in staff for visa-free routes.
