What to do next
The part most visa checkers leave out: what actually needs doing before you fly.
Confirm with the official source
Rules change without notice, and only the immigration authority of Palau can tell you where you stand. Search for its official site before you travel.
Check your passport
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date. Renew first if you are close, because this is the most common reason travellers are turned away.
Palau Entry Form required
