The visa regime and the conditions for issuing an entry permit to Bolivia depend directly on the nationality of the traveler.

Visa-free entry

Citizens of most European Union countries, Russia, Ukraine, Canada, Japan, Switzerland, Israel and many other countries can enter Bolivia without a visa for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. This makes Bolivia an affordable and attractive destination for tourists from these countries.

Visa on Arrival

This visa can be applied for by citizens of certain countries with which there is a visa on arrival procedure.

It is important to note that the period of stay in Bolivia on such a visa is no more than 90 days. If you plan to stay for a longer period, you will need to apply for a long-term visa before traveling.

Consular visa

Citizens of most countries need to apply for a visa to Bolivia at a consulate. This standard procedure for obtaining a visa involves collecting the necessary documents and submitting the application in person, followed by receiving the finished visa at the consular office.

Special cases

Categories of travelers, including students, workers, and anyone planning an extended stay, may require special visas that must be applied for in advance through a Bolivian consulate or embassy.

Citizens of countries that are not on the visa-free list must apply for a short-term visa to Bolivia to visit the country for up to 90 days.

For long-term visas, citizens of all countries without exception must apply through the Bolivian consular representation.

Obtaining a visa on arrival

Bolivia tourist visa can be obtained on arrival. This can be done at the international airports of La Paz, Cochabamba or Santa Cruz. This method can be used if for some reason you do not have the opportunity to apply for a visa in your country in advance.

It should be taken into account that the procedure of applying for and obtaining a visa on the spot may take more time, as well as not exclude the possibility of denial of entry. Therefore, if you are not a citizen of a country with a visa-free regime, we advise you to apply for a visa to Bolivia in advance, specifying the conditions of application according to your citizenship.
