Entry rules for Tonga passport holders

Applications generally go through a Myanmar embassy or consulate and require a completed form, passport photos, proof of accommodation and onward travel, and sometimes travel insurance. Start the process several weeks before your planned trip, as processing times vary.
Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Myanmar immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.
