Do I need a visa for Myanmar from Belgium?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Yes, Belgian travellers need a visa for Myanmar. The easiest option is the tourist e-Visa, applied for online before departure.
Belgian nationals planning to explore Myanmar — Yangon, the temples of Bagan or Inle Lake — must obtain a visa before travelling. The official e-Visa is applied for entirely online through the Ministry of Immigration portal. Some entry points may also offer a visa on arrival, but the e-Visa remains the most reliable route.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. Belgian citizens are not visa-exempt for Myanmar, so a tourist e-Visa is required. You apply online at evisa.moip.gov.mm before you travel. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months.
How and where to apply
Apply through the official portal evisa.moip.gov.mm: open an application, upload a photo and your passport bio page, then pay online. You then receive the approval by email. Some airports may grant a visa on arrival, but confirm your eligibility and favour the e-Visa.
Documents and fees
You will need a Belgian passport valid for at least 6 months beyond entry, a recent passport photo, an address of stay in Myanmar and a return ticket. The fee and validity period are set by the official portal: check them when you apply, as they can change over time.
Processing and tips
Submit your application several working days before departure to absorb any processing delay. Print the approval letter you receive by email and present it to immigration on arrival. Also check which ports of entry accept the e-Visa and the health requirements, in particular a yellow-fever certificate if you are arriving from an at-risk country.
Common mistakes
Refusals often stem from a passport valid for under 6 months, an application filed through an unofficial third-party site, or arriving at an entry point not covered by the e-Visa. Make sure you are applying for a tourist e-Visa and not a business visa.
