EEV — Tourist Electronic Entry Visa (e-Visa)

The Tourist Electronic Entry Visa (e-Visa) is a digital authorization system implemented by the government of Antigua and Barbuda to streamline the entry process for international tourists who require a visa. This electronic system allows eligible applicants to submit their documentation and receive approval before their departure, significantly reducing wait times at the border. The e-Visa is typically valid for a period of 180 days from the date of issuance, during which the holder is permitted to stay in the country for up to 90 days. This flexibility makes it an ideal choice for travelers planning leisure trips, vacations, or short-term visits to explore the islands.

To apply for the Tourist e-Visa, travelers must ensure their passport has a minimum of six months of validity remaining from the date of their intended arrival. The application process requires the submission of essential travel details, including proof of onward travel, such as a confirmed return ticket or a flight itinerary leaving the country. The government fee for this electronic visa is USD 100. Applicants are encouraged to apply well in advance of their travel dates to allow for processing time. Once approved, it is highly recommended that travelers carry a printed or digital copy of their e-Visa confirmation to present to immigration officials upon arrival in Antigua and Barbuda.
