## Official evidence timeline

- **June 28, 2016 — Covered EU ordinary passports gained Marshall Islands short-stay access** (Visa-free)
  The reciprocal EU–Marshall Islands agreement is provisionally applied from 2016-06-28; no final entry-into-force notice was located in this review.
  - The waiver is limited to valid ordinary passports and short stays of no more than 90 days in any 180-day period.
  - Paid activity is excluded, and ordinary entry conditions and refusal powers continue to apply.
  - Ireland is outside the agreement.

- **Current official route — Marshall Islands citizens: outside foreign visitor-visa scope** (Citizenship)
  The Immigration Act gives every citizen of the Republic a right to be in the Republic. The same-country ordinary-passport row is normalized as citizenship, rather than a foreign visitor route.
  - This same-country normalization does not decide a dual national's treatment when presenting a different passport, nor residence, work, special-document, clearance, or individual-admissibility treatment.
  - Citizens remain subject to border-recording procedures; that does not create a foreign visitor visa requirement.

- **Current official route — United States, Palau, and Federated States of Micronesia citizens: statutory visa exemption** (Visa-free)
  The Immigration Act expressly exempts citizens of the United States, Palau, and the Federated States of Micronesia from the requirement to hold a visa. This ordinary-passport catalog normalization is visa_free, not an arrival-issued visa.
  - The Act's exemption applies to citizens, while ordinary passports are the catalog scope. It does not establish treatment for diplomatic, contractor, crew, work, residence, or other special routes.
  - The Act states that exempt persons remain subject to immigration clearance and may be refused an entry permit on the statutory eligibility grounds.

- **Current official route — Named ordinary passports: 90-day visa exemption or waiver** (Visa-free)
  The Division's linked summary expressly labels this named ordinary-passport cohort visa exempt/waived for 90 days from arrival. Its grouping label is not used to infer membership; only the directly enumerated passport codes are modeled.
  - The summary requires six months-plus passport validity after departure, confirmed onward travel, and necessary onward-country documents; it forbids extension, change of status, and employment.
  - The source's historical 'EU Member Countries' heading also expressly enumerates the United Kingdom. The direct enumeration, not that inaccurate heading, supports GB.
  - Taiwan is expressly written as Republic of China-Taiwan, ROC. The separately listed Guatemala row is not modeled because the same summary also puts Guatemala in its VOA table.

- **Current official route — Named ordinary passports: visa on arrival** (Visa on arrival)
  The Division's linked summary expressly labels this directly named ordinary-passport cohort VISA ON ARRIVAL, for a 90-day stay from arrival and a waived fee.
  - The summary specifies ordinary passports, six months-plus passport validity after departure, confirmed onward travel, and needed onward-travel visas; it excludes extension, change of status, employment, study, and research.
  - The list is modeled only for its directly named ordinary-passport codes. It does not prove a route for an omitted nationality, special passport, diplomatic mission, crew, transit, work, residence, or individual admission case.
  - Guatemala is deliberately excluded because the same official summary also places it in the visa-exempt table, creating a direct unresolved conflict.

- **Current official route — 2024 RMI diplomatic-ties ordinary passports: visa on arrival** (Visa on arrival)
  The current Parliament-hosted regulations issue a visitor visa upon arrival to citizens of countries with RMI diplomatic ties. The Ministry’s 2024 report directly records that the Republic established ties with each named country; ordinary visitors are therefore mapped as visa_on_arrival.
  - A visitor visa is issued upon arrival under regulation 7 only after the Director is satisfied about the return ticket, local address, and any other necessary information.
  - The visitor visa is valid for 90 days under regulation 7; issuance and final admission remain subject to immigration clearance and the Director’s statutory discretion.
  - This is an ordinary-visitor nationality baseline only; it does not infer eligibility for diplomatic, official, residence, employment, crew, sponsor, or other special routes.

- **Current official route — Jamaican ordinary passport: visa on arrival** (Visa on arrival)
  The current Parliament-hosted regulations issue a visitor visa upon arrival to citizens of countries with RMI diplomatic ties. Jamaica’s Foreign Ministry directly records the 2022 joint communiqué establishing ties with the RMI; the ordinary visitor route is therefore visa_on_arrival.
  - A visitor visa is issued upon arrival under regulation 7 only after the Director is satisfied about the return ticket, local address, and any other necessary information.
  - The visitor visa is valid for 90 days under regulation 7; issuance and final admission remain subject to immigration clearance and the Director’s statutory discretion.

- **Current official route — Nepali ordinary passport: visa on arrival** (Visa on arrival)
  The current Parliament-hosted regulations issue a visitor visa upon arrival to citizens of countries with RMI diplomatic ties. Nepal’s current Foreign Ministry bilateral-relations dataset directly records the RMI relationship; the ordinary visitor route is therefore visa_on_arrival.

- **Current official route — Antigua and Barbuda ordinary passport: visa on arrival** (Visa on arrival)
  RMI's current Parliament-hosted regulations issue a visitor visa upon arrival to citizens of countries with RMI diplomatic ties. RMI's Foreign Affairs Ministry directly announced the formalization of ties with Antigua and Barbuda in September 2025.
  - A visitor visa is issued upon arrival under section 6 only after the Director is satisfied about the return ticket, local address, and any other necessary information.
  - The visitor visa is valid for 90 days under section 6; issuance and final admission remain subject to immigration clearance and the Director's statutory discretion.
  - This is an ordinary-visitor nationality baseline only; it does not infer eligibility for diplomatic, official, residence, employment, crew, sponsor, or other special routes.

- **Current official route — Mainland Chinese ordinary passports: Marshall Islands advance visa** (Visa required)
  Chinese citizens must apply to the Marshall Islands Immigration Office for a visa before entry.
  - This is an advance-application rule; no arrival-issued route is established.
  - It does not classify work-visa procedures, diplomatic passports, or final admission.

- **Current official route — Palestinian ordinary passports: 2026 advance-visa visitor cohort** (Visa required)
  The State of Palestine's current ordinary-passport schedule labels this exact destination cohort "Visa is required" and separately labels electronic and arrival-issued routes elsewhere in the same schedule. It is normalized as advance visa required.
  - This is the Ministry's ordinary-passport short-visitor baseline. The source separately labels eVisa and visa-on-arrival rows, so a bare "Visa is required" row is not recast as either route.
  - Georgia and Panama have separately stated waivers for holders of specified third-country visas. Those conditional document routes are excluded from this passport-only baseline.
  - Mission availability, passport recognition, individual admission, route, transit, work, residence, diplomatic, official, service and other special-document treatment are outside this policy.

- **Current official route — Armenian ordinary passports: Marshall Islands advance visitor visa** (Visa required)
  The Marshall Islands Embassy requires countries outside its named exemptions and diplomatic-relations cohort to obtain a visa before travel. Armenia's current Foreign Ministry record expressly says bilateral diplomatic relations have not been established.
  - Applies to a current ordinary Armenian passport for short visitor travel. Armenia is not in the Embassy's named A exemption cohort, and Armenia's Foreign Ministry expressly establishes that it is outside the diplomatic-relations B cohort.
  - The advance visitor-visa rule does not promise approval or admission and does not cover residence, work, business licensing, diplomatic or official passports, crew, visiting forces, international-organization exemptions or other special categories.
