Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for at least the length of your stay in Micronesia. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires before you leave, you will be denied boarding. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Micronesia | Immigration officers ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket upon arrival. Have a printed or digital copy ready — they check this at the border. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or invitation letter | Carry a hotel reservation or a letter from your host in Micronesia. Officers may ask where you are staying, especially if you arrive without a clear itinerary. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Sufficient money for your stay | Be ready to show cash, credit cards, or bank statements covering your expenses. There is no fixed minimum, but having at least $100 per day is a safe benchmark. | Recommended |
Strict 90-day limit — no extensions
