Venezuela introduces electronic visas for US nationals

Effective 6 April 2026, the Venezuelan Ministry of Foreign Affairs implemented a mandatory electronic visa (e-Visa) application process for US nationals traveling to Venezuela in the Business Visa (TR-N) and Tourist (T) visa categories. The new system replaces traditional in-person consular filings and requires applicants to submit visa application requests through a centralized online government portal.
