The e-visa is ideal for short trips (up to 16 days) by citizens of eligible countries. However, if you need more time, multiple entries, or entry through any border crossing — choose a regular tourist visa.
If your country is not on the eligible list (e.g., USA, UK, Canada, Australia), you need a traditional tourist visa. This requires a visa invitation letter (visa support letter).
If the e-visa doesn't work for you — order a visa invitation letter for a traditional tourist visa. Delivered to your email in 5 minutes.
