Our guide to the Myanmar visa from the Netherlands
Yes, Dutch citizens need a visa for Myanmar. The standard route is the tourist e-Visa, applied for online through Myanmar's official immigration portal before departure.
Travellers from the Netherlands heading to Myanmar generally obtain a tourist e-Visa via the official portal evisa.moip.gov.mm. The whole application is digital: form, photo, passport copy and online payment.
Do you need a visa for Myanmar?
Yes. Holders of a Netherlands passport must obtain a visa before entering Myanmar, barring any special arrangement. For tourism the standard route is the e-Visa, an electronic authorisation issued after an online application.
How much does an e-visa for Myanmar cost from the Netherlands?
The official fee for an e-visa for Myanmar is not published in a source we can verify. Check the amount on the official portal before paying anything, third-party sites often add service fees on top.
What does a visa for Myanmar really cost?
The published fee is the government charge alone. Two or three other lines are added before the visa is in the passport, and they are what makes the final bill.
- Government feeNot published in a source we can verify
Paid to the state, non-refundable if the visa is refused.
- Agency or online serviceOptional, added on top
Never compulsory. An intermediary fills the form for you, it does not change the decision or the processing time.
We only display amounts published by an official source. Confirm the total before paying anything.
What documents are required for an e-visa for Myanmar?
The exact list for Myanmar is not published in a source we can verify. Every short-stay tourist application is nonetheless built on the same core:
- Valid passport
- Completed application form
- Compliant passport photo
- Proof of accommodation
- Return or onward ticket
- Proof of sufficient funds
Treat this as the common core, not the official list, confirm it with the consular authorities of Myanmar before you apply.
Documents and fees
Bring a Netherlands passport valid for at least 6 months on the entry date, with blank pages. A recent digital passport photo and the passport bio page are required, along with an accommodation address and a declared entry point. The exact e-Visa fee is not fixed here: check the current amount directly on evisa.moip.gov.mm before paying.
How to apply for an e-visa for Myanmar from the Netherlands
- 1Fill in the form on the destination’s official portal.
- 2Upload the required documents (passport, photo, supporting papers).
- 3Pay the fee online by card.
- 4Receive the authorisation by email, usually without a consular visit.
- 5Show the authorisation, printed or on your phone, at boarding.
How and where to apply
The application is made online only, through the official portal evisa.moip.gov.mm. The Dutch traveller creates a file, states the purpose of stay, their contact details and planned entry point, uploads the required documents, then pays the fee by card. Once approved, the e-Visa (or approval letter) is sent by email: it must be printed and shown at check-in and then at immigration control on arrival in Myanmar.
Where do you apply for a visa for Myanmar from the Netherlands?
An e-visa for Myanmar is filed entirely online: there is no counter to visit and no file to hand in. The only address that matters is the official portal.
- The application, the supporting documents and the payment all go through the official portal, from any country.
- Lookalike sites copy the portal’s name and layout, then resell the same application with a margin. Check the domain before you type in a passport number.
- The authorisation arrives by email. Keep a printed copy, some airlines ask for it at boarding.
You live in the Netherlands on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in the Netherlands but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

How long does an e-visa for Myanmar take?
No verified processing time is published for this route. Apply as early as your travel dates allow, and never book non-refundable travel before the e-visa is granted.
Processing and practical tips
No processing time is guaranteed: submit the application several working days before departure to absorb any checks. Enter the point of entry carefully, as the tourist e-Visa is only valid at designated ports. Keep a printed and a digital copy of the approval, and confirm any health requirements with the official source (including yellow fever if you are arriving from an affected area).
Before you fly, and at the border
- Passport validity: most countries require the passport to stay valid beyond the return date, and the margin required differs from one destination to the next. Check it on the official source, and count from your return, not from your departure.
- A visa is not a right of entry. The border officer decides, and may ask for a return ticket, an address or proof of funds even when everything is in order.
- Conditional exemptions exist: several countries waive the visa for holders of a valid visa or residence permit from a third country. This depends on the destination and on the document, and we do not publish that rule when our sources do not carry it. The official page does.
- Minors travelling alone or with one parent are often asked for extra papers, typically a parental authorisation and the family record. Ask the post before booking.
- Overstaying is not a formality. It exposes you to a fine, to removal, and to an entry ban that can outlast the trip by years, including for the whole area when the destination belongs to one.
Common mistakes and good to know
Use only the official portal evisa.moip.gov.mm: many third-party sites charge surcharges for the same procedure. Make sure the name, passport number and dates entered match your document exactly. Finally, do not rely on visa on arrival.
