Will the 45-day tourist visa on arrival continue after March?
Will the 45 day tourist visa on arrival continue or finish in March?
Answer summary
The 45-day tourist visa on arrival is currently set to end on March 31, reverting to the standard 30 days on April 1. However, no official announcement has been made regarding its extension or continuation beyond that date. Many community members express uncertainty and highlight that the government may wait until the last minute to decide, especially with upcoming elections in mid-March that could affect any announcements.

Take a coin out of your pocket. Flip it. Heads it stays, tails it reverts. Oh wait. Maybe it’s the other way around.

At this stage no decision has been made, they usually wait until the last minute to announce it, just keep a close eye on the news for any announcement

We likely won't know until March 30 or 31st.
As of now it goes back to 30 days on April 1st.
