Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your stay | Your passport needs at least 6 months of validity from your date of entry into Haiti. Airlines check this before boarding — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Haiti | Immigration officers routinely ask for a return or onward ticket within 90 days. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight itinerary ready — they check this before stamping you in. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Carry a hotel confirmation or a letter from your host with their address and phone number. Officers occasionally ask where you are staying, especially if you arrive without a clear plan. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself during your stay | Have bank statements or cash (USD or Haitian gourdes) to show you have enough for your trip. There is no fixed minimum, but around $50 USD per day is a safe benchmark. | Recommended |
Safety first
Haiti has ongoing security concerns. Check your government's travel advisory before you go. Avoid traveling after dark, and stay in well-known areas. Register with your embassy on arrival.
No visa needed — but be prepared
You don't need a visa, but immigration can still ask for proof of onward travel and accommodation. Have digital copies saved on your phone and a printed backup in your bag.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Toussaint Louverture International Airport (PAP)
After landing, follow signs to 'Immigration'. Join the queue for foreign passports. Have your passport, return ticket (screenshot is fine), and accommodation confirmation ready. The officer will stamp you in for up to 90 days. The process usually takes 10–20 minutes.
2
Proceed to baggage claim and customs
After immigration, collect your luggage from the carousel. Customs is usually a quick walk-through unless you have something to declare. Keep your passport handy — you may need to show it again at the exit.
