Requirements to apply for the PNG eVisa

The Papua New Guinea Visa requirements are very standard ones and can be easily met by all applicants. To apply for a Papua New Guinea eVisa, a traveler should first consult the list of eligible countries. After making sure that they are eligible to apply online, there are only three steps left to enjoy the approved eVisa delivered straight to their email inbox.

There are two types of PNG tourist visas available online that have the same simple requirements, i.e., to hold a valid passport that will not expire for at least 6 months from the date of planned arrival in Papua New Guinea. The passport also should have one or more blank pages that are necessary for entry stamps given upon arrival in the country.

Do remember to apply for the PNG Visa at least 3 business days before you plan to enter Papua New Guinea to avoid unnecessary stress about a visa not being delivered on time. Go through a very intuitive and simple three-step application process. Fill out the application form, pay the processing fee for your visa, and receive your approved PNG electronic visa sent to you via email.
