Immigration and visa-on-arrival rules can change overnight without notice. This information is for guidance, but it is not a legal guarantee.

Before booking any flights or hotels, you must confirm the exact entry requirements with the official embassy, consulate, or immigration website of your destination country. Always double-check that your specific visa type (e.g., C-Visit, BRP) is eligible for the visa waiver and its specific conditions (like "must be multiple-entry" or "must have been used").
