OBTAINING A VISA IN MALDIVES
While traveling to a foreign country, despite any purpose, the first thing you need to consider would be the acceptance from the government of that country. For this, we are calling it a Visa, which is a form of acceptance from the arrival country and the traveller assuring safety and integrity from the country.
Likewise, Maldives issues you a full on 30 days visa upon arrival to the Maldives regardless the country you are from provided with the necessary information and demands by the country. This 30 days grant period can be extended again for another 60 days as well upon request.
HOW MUCH DOES A MALDIVIAN VISA COST
As highlighted before, tourist visa is issued upon the showing of the necessary documents and no fees are to be obtained for the first 30 days. But, the thing to be noted is, once when you want an extension, it is a different story. If applied, again with the necessary travel documents and the financial status of the person before the expiration of the initial visa, the next 90 days can be obtained. For this, if your stay exceeds 30 days, you will be subjected for the payment of 750 Ruffiyyaa approximately $50 for the next 60 days.
HOW AND WHERE TO APPLY FOR A MALDIVIAN VISA
Tourist visas will be issued upon the arrival to the Velaanaa International airport Maldives where you will be faced by the Immigration of the Maldives. If the Visa type is different, you will let into the country with a temporary tourist visa of 30 days and later on changed to the desired type of the visa at the capital of the Maldives, Male’. This will be issued upon filling the application form and subjecting the documents.
