Passports & Visas

Essential Information For Maldives

Passport

You must hold a valid passport to enter Maldives. Your passport must be valid for the proposed duration of your stay. No additional period of validity beyond this is required.

Visa

A visa is issued free on arrival for stays of up to 30 days, provided you hold a valid ticket to continue your journey out of Maldives and have enough funds to cover your stay.

Airport Departure Tax

Local Airport Departure Tax in Maldives is USD25 per person, which is collected locally and consequently is not included in your flight ticket.

“We much enjoyed the holiday: the variety of countryside and activities, the food, our excellent guide Niroshan but most of all the smiling charming Sri Lankans.”
