Overview

Permit issued to representatives of foreign governments conducting official governmental activities not otherwise exempt by treaty or presidential determination.

The Foreign Government Official's Entry Permit is issued by the Federated States of Micronesia to representatives of foreign governments, as well as employees or contractual personnel of foreign governments or international and regional organizations. This permit is specifically intended for individuals entering the FSM to engage in official governmental or diplomatic activities. It recognizes the necessity of facilitating the movement of officials who are conducting work that involves bilateral or multilateral cooperation, ensuring that they can perform their duties effectively while complying with the FSM's national immigration regulations.

To be eligible for this permit, the applicant must provide clear proof of their official assignment, typically supported by a formal letter from their sending government, agency, or international organization. This documentation must explicitly state the purpose of the visit and the nature of the official activities to be conducted within the FSM. Because this permit pertains to diplomatic and official status, applicants should coordinate closely with the FSM Division of Immigration and Labor regarding specific requirements and any applicable administrative procedures. The permit is generally issued for the duration of the official assignment, up to a maximum of one year, subject to renewal if necessary.
