The process of getting an eVisa is more or less the same as applying for a traditional visa. However, in this case, you don’t have to visit a visa application center— you can submit your application online, including the visa payment.
After your application is approved, you will receive an email confirming your visa status along with a document you must print out and bring with you when crossing the border. Your visa will be registered online, but some officers may ask you for a physical copy of the permit; that is why it’s important to keep the copy on your person while traveling.

The application for a visa goes as follows:
- Make an appointment at the visa center. You must contact a local visa application center in your home country and make an appointment to submit your application. It may take several months to schedule a meeting with the embassy or consulate.
- Get your documents ready. To submit a successful application, you have to prepare the required documents for your visa, i.e., passport, application form, health insurance, etc. Some of your documents must be verified with an apostille stamp or certified by a foreign office.
- Go to the visa interview. Finally, you can submit your application and attend the visa interview—you may also be required to submit your biometrics. Then, it will take several weeks to process your visa, and once it’s issued, you can enter your destination country.
Please note that if you have a valid visa that allows you to enter more than one country, you don’t have to apply for a new visa.
