Official details are shown in English.

  • Passport valid at least 6 months on arrival
  • Return or onward ticket; proof of sufficient funds may be asked
  • Paper entry form and customs declaration filled in on arrival; keep the part of the entry form you must show when leaving
  • USD 10 tourist fee in cash
  • Yellow fever certificate if arriving from a country with transmission risk

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. To stay longer, apply to the Haitian Immigration Service before the 90 days end; otherwise an exit visa is needed to leave.
  • Penalties. Our data does not list the overstay penalty for Haiti. Ask the immigration authority before you risk it: fines, deportation and entry bans are common elsewhere.
