Official Information

Overview

For foreign nationals visiting Mongolia as tourists, allowing stays of up to 30 days with a possible 30-day extension; available as an e-visa for citizens of 98 countries.

The Tourist Visa (K2) is intended for foreign nationals visiting Mongolia for leisure, sightseeing, or cultural exploration. This visa is the primary entry permit for travelers who wish to experience Mongolia's unique landscapes, nomadic culture, and historical sites. It is designed for short-term stays, typically up to 30 days, and is available to most international travelers either through an online e-visa system for eligible nationalities or via a traditional application at a Mongolian embassy or consulate.

This visa is for individuals whose sole purpose of entry is tourism. Applicants are expected to provide basic travel documentation, such as proof of accommodation and a travel itinerary, to demonstrate their intent to visit for leisure. It is a straightforward process aimed at facilitating tourism, and travelers are reminded that obtaining the visa does not guarantee entry, as final approval remains at the discretion of border officials upon arrival.
