Latest visa policy updates
Visa policies change constantly: revised fees, exemptions granted or withdrawn, new e-visas. This page lists the latest significant changes applied to the IziVisas catalogue, in chronological order.
Our methodology
Every visa sheet is built and re-verified from official sources: government e-visa portals, ministry of foreign affairs websites, centralised Schengen data and per-destination visa policy records. Every catalogue mutation is logged; only significant changes (fees, eligibility, length of stay, new sheets) are shown here, not routine technical re-checks.
