Cook Islands to launch online e-visa in mid-September 2024

The Cook Islands Immigration Service is implementing an electronic visa application system that will be available by mid-September. The new platform will allow foreign nationals to apply for visas and permits online, significantly speeding up the paperwork process.

The move to an online system is an important initiative by the Cook Islands to modernize visa services and gradually move from a manual application process to convenient online applications.

It is important to note that a visa is not required for citizens of all countries planning a tourist trip to the Cook Islands for up to 31 days. However, if foreign nationals wish to extend their stay or plan to visit the islands for other purposes, a visa will be required through the Immigration Department.

While the system is still in the testing phase, the final launch of the platform is scheduled for mid-September. The new electronic visa system is expected to make the process of entering the Cook Islands more convenient for all travelers.
