   El Salvador: current named Category B/C ordinary passports

   The current RREE table and DGME’s linked full country list place these ordinary passports in Category B (consular) or Category C (consulted), both of which require advance visa authorization.

   • Category B is consular/sin consulta and Category C is consulted; both are advance-visa categories under RREE’s current definitions.
   • DGME’s online PEI is available to Category B/C applicants, but applicants may also apply at a diplomatic mission; an approved PEI is stamped in the passport at entry. It is therefore not a nationality-wide eVisa classification.
   • The RREE selector can depend on a valid United States, Canadian or Schengen visa and legal residence. Those third-country-document conditions are not nationality-wide classifications.
   • Visa grant, duration, entries, fee, sponsoring evidence, port and admission/security controls remain case- or route-specific; residence, work, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service and special-document cases are excluded.
