Disclaimer: The MTrek Board does not provide visa services or guarantee visa approvals. It is the responsibility of each trekker to secure the necessary travel documents for their destination in advance of leaving for their trek. Trek refunds cannot be issued in the event of a visa denial. We recommend consulting the official embassy or consulate website for up-to-date visa requirements.
How can I check visa requirements/ eligibility of destinations?
The MTrek Board is unable to advise on visa requirements/eligibility for destinations, however the U-M International Center’s Visa Information site is a great resource. Please check whether you need a visa to enter the country and whether the destination has any specific restrictions before applying. Because visa requirements differ from country to country and are subject to change, the best way to obtain the information is to check the government website of each destination country and/or your citizenship country’s government website, as they often maintain foreign visa information to support travelers. Given the potentially lengthy and uncertain wait time for visa processing, it is advised to begin the visa application process, if necessary, as soon as possible.
