The fee varies depending on nationality and visa type. Check the official portal (https://foreign.gov.tt/services/visas/) for the current fee. It's paid online during the application.
No, the eVisa is not extendable. You must leave before your authorized stay expires. If you need to stay longer, you'd have to leave and re-enter or contact immigration before your visa expires.
Only if you're arriving from a country with risk of yellow fever transmission (like parts of South America or Africa). If you're flying directly from Ukraine or Europe, you don't need it.
You'll be denied entry and put on the next flight back. There's no visa-on-arrival for Ukrainian citizens. Don't risk it — get the eVisa before you fly.
The standard eVisa is for single entry. If you plan to leave and re-enter, you'll need to apply for a new visa. Check the portal for details on multiple-entry options.
Have your passport, printed eVisa, return ticket, accommodation confirmation, and proof of funds ready. The officer may ask to see any of these, so keep them handy.
