Common mistakes
Buying the e-Visa from an unofficial site that adds service fees is a costly mistake. Leaving without approval, or with a passport different from the one used for the application, exposes you to being refused boarding. Finally, overstaying the 90 authorised days can lead to penalties, so keep an eye on your departure date.
