  • Check it covers your destinations, dates and activities.

Entry rules come from governments

This checklist is general guidance. Visa, passport-validity and onward-travel rules depend on your nationality and destination, so confirm them with the official source. Need a travel plan to share? Build one with the flight itinerary builder.
