The policy remains visa_required whether the authority labels the advance route as prior authorization or consular visa.","Palestine’s ordinary-passport row says admission is granted with prior consultation; the Foreign Ministry’s current prior-consultation process is a consular visa process, so it is likewise normalized as visa_required.","The Foreign Ministry says a tourist-visa applicant must request a consular interview in advance; after authorization the visa is stamped in the passport. An appointment, form, document upload or processing inquiry is not an eVisa.","Taiwan’s row says a travel certificate has been required since 5 December 2018; this does not establish a visa-free, eVisa or visa-on-arrival route.","The schedule lists conditional visa exemptions for specified Dominican and PRC passport holders with valid third-country visas and port restrictions.
