Discover visa requirements for your trip

In short

Norwegian citizens need a visa for Myanmar. The tourist electronic visa (e-Visa) is applied for online before departure on the official portal.

Myanmar does not offer visa-free entry to Norwegian travellers. The government provides an e-Visa that Norwegians can obtain from home in Norway, without visiting an embassy. The approval received by email must be shown on arrival at authorised entry points.

Do you need a visa?

Yes, Norwegian citizens must obtain a visa to enter Myanmar. For tourism, the e-Visa is the standard option, applied for online before the trip. It is valid for entry at the designated international entry points (main airports).

How and where to apply

The application is made online, from Norway, on the official Ministry of Immigration portal (evisa.moip.gov.mm). The applicant fills in the form, uploads a photo and passport copy, then pays the fee by card. The approval (e-Visa letter) is sent by email and must be printed.

Documents and fees

Prepare a Norwegian passport valid for at least 6 months, a recent photo in the required format, and your flight and accommodation details. As the exact fee is not fixed here, check it on the official portal before paying. Make sure you enter through an entry point that accepts the e-Visa.

Processing and tips

Processing time is not guaranteed, so submit your application at least one to two weeks before departure. Check that your photo meets the portal's requirements, a frequent cause of rejection. Keep the printed e-Visa letter, as it is checked at boarding and on arrival.

Common mistakes

Do not leave it to the last minute: an e-Visa not approved in time can cause a missed flight. Use only the official government portal and avoid intermediaries that overcharge. Finally, confirm your entry point is one that accepts the e-Visa, as it is not valid at all land border crossings.
