Apply early — no visa on arrival
Mongolian citizens cannot get a visa on arrival in Trinidad and Tobago. You must have the eVisa approved before you fly. Airlines check this before boarding, so don't risk it.
Use the official portal only
The only official eVisa application is at foreign.gov.tt/services/visas/. Third-party sites may charge extra fees and aren't reliable.
What happens at the border
1
Apply for the eVisa online
Go to the official Trinidad and Tobago government visa portal (foreign.gov.tt/services/visas/) and fill out the application form. You'll need to upload a digital photo, passport scan, and supporting documents like your flight itinerary and hotel booking.
2
Pay the visa fee
Pay the non-refundable processing fee online using a credit or debit card. The fee varies by nationality and visa type — check the portal for the exact amount.
3
Wait for approval
Processing typically takes 3–5 business days, but can take longer. Check your email regularly — the approval is sent as a PDF. Don't book non-refundable flights until you have it.
4
Print or save your eVisa
Print a copy of the approved eVisa and also save it on your phone. You'll need to show it at check-in and to immigration officers on arrival.
5
Arrive at Piarco International Airport
When you land in Port of Spain, go through immigration with your passport, eVisa, and supporting documents. The officer will stamp your passport and let you through — usually a quick process if you have everything ready.
