What it means in practice

90 days is about three months. If you arrive on 1 November 2026, your last legal day is 29 January 2027, because the arrival day is day one. Use the stay calculator for your own dates.

How Guatemala counts your stay: Up to 90 days from the first CA-4 entry stamp, shared across Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras and Nicaragua. Maximum 180 days in total with the extension. Overstaying incurs a fine for irregular stay.

  • Electronic Regional Traveller's Affidavit (DJRV) — Before arrival and before departure (can be filled in several days ahead); valid for the travel date you enter; Free.

At the border

Official details are shown in English.

  • Passport valid at least 6 months
  • DJRV QR code when arriving or leaving by air or sea
  • Get entry and exit stamps; leaving without an entry stamp leads to a fine and delays
  • After leaving the CA-4 area you may return after 72 hours; the officer can refuse entry
  • Yellow fever certificate only if arriving from, or transiting an airport in, a country with yellow fever risk
  • A child travelling with one parent or another adult needs a notarised consent letter from the absent parent(s)

How to avoid overstaying

  • Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
  • Plan to leave a day or two early. With 90 days, book your exit before the last legal day so a cancelled flight doesn't push you over.
  • Extend before you run out. Apply at the Guatemalan Migration Institute (IGM) before your stay expires: one extension of up to 90 days, fee USD 25 (paid in quetzales). Bring the form, passport valid 6+ months with your last entry stamp, and an exit ticket, an international credit card or a Guatemalan guarantor's certificate. If the entry stamp is missing you also need a migration record (USD 10). For longer stays apply for temporary residence.
  • What overstaying costs. Overstaying incurs a fine for irregular stay.

Good to know

Official details are shown in English.

  • Each CA-4 country checks its own entry rules: a visa-free passport for Guatemala may still need a visa for El Salvador, Honduras or Nicaragua.
  • If you bring a vehicle, leave by the date on the temporary import permit; each extra day is fined.
