Papua New Guinea Introduces Visa-on-Arrival for UK, Canada, and Singapore Citizens
In a move to bolster tourism and enhance business relations, Papua New Guinea (PNG) has expanded its visa-on-arrival (VOA) program to include citizens from the United Kingdom, Canada, and Singapore.
Key Details of the New Visa Policy:
• Eligibility: Passport holders from the UK, Canada, and Singapore are now eligible to obtain a visa upon arrival at Jackson’s International Airport in Port Moresby. This initiative aims to simplify travel procedures and encourage more visitors from these nations.
• Duration of Stay: The VOA permits a stay of up to 60 days for tourism, leisure, or family visits. Travelers intending to stay beyond this period or engage in employment must apply for an appropriate visa online before their trip.
Implications for Tourism and Business:
By streamlining the entry process, PNG aims to attract more tourists and strengthen economic ties with the UK, Canada, and Singapore. This development is expected to boost visitor numbers, stimulate local economies, and foster international collaborations.
This policy change underscores PNG’s commitment to becoming a more accessible and welcoming destination for global travelers and business professionals alike.
