Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport needs to be valid for the entire time you plan to stay in Haiti. No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required by Haitian immigration, but airlines may enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Haiti | Immigration officers at Toussaint Louverture Airport routinely ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket before granting entry. Have a printed copy or a digital version on your phone ready to show. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Carry a hotel reservation confirmation or a letter of invitation from your host in Haiti. Officers may ask where you're staying, especially if you arrive without a pre-booked hotel. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | Have bank statements, a credit card, or cash (USD or Haitian gourdes) available to demonstrate you have at least $100–$200 per day of your stay. Immigration rarely asks, but it's better to have proof ready. | Recommended |
Safety advisory
Haiti has a high crime rate and periodic civil unrest. Check your government's travel advisories before booking. Avoid non-essential travel to certain areas, especially at night.
Currency and cash
The local currency is the Haitian gourde (HTG). US dollars are widely accepted, but you'll get change in gourdes. ATMs are scarce outside Port-au-Prince — bring enough cash for your stay.
