Immigration Checklist

Enter your citizenship and destination to see the checklist.

How it works

While every country has specific visa rules, immigration officers worldwide generally look for the same core criteria when determining if you are a genuine tourist or business visitor: identity, funds, intent to leave, and a place to stay.

Limitations

This tool provides a universal safety net checklist. It does not tell you whether your specific citizenship requires a visa for your destination. You must check official government portals (like the US State Department or your destination's Ministry of Foreign Affairs) for exact visa requirements.

Frequently asked questions

Do I really need printed copies?

Yes. Immigration officers often ask to see your return flight and hotel bookings before you have cleared customs—meaning you might not have local cell service or WiFi to load an email on your phone. Always have paper backups.
