How to read this
Visa-free means you can arrive with just your passport, for the days shown. ETA and e-Visa are applied for online before the trip; a visa on arrival is bought at the border. Visa required means an embassy or consulate visa before you travel.
With two passports, the best-of view takes the easier status for each country, and the longer stay when both are the same kind. Use the passport you entered with for the whole stay.

Frequently asked questions
Which passport should I use when I hold two?
Usually the one that gives the easier entry or the longer stay, and the same one on the way in and out. Some countries require their own citizens to enter on their own passport.
Why does a country show fewer days than I expected?
Our data follows the latest official rules we have checked, which can differ from older lists. The officer at the border can also grant fewer days: the date on your stamp is the one that counts.
Is this the full set of rules?
No. It shows whether you need a visa and for how long. Arrival cards, insurance, onward tickets and passport validity are on each destination's page.
