    Mongolia: ordinary passports exempt under ongoing bilateral or unilateral rules

    The current Consular Department schedule expressly records these ordinary/all-passport visa exemptions, with the stated stay periods.

    • The source records nationality-specific stays: PH 21 days; HK 14; KZ, US, MO, BY, BR, AR, CL, EC, PE, PY and CO 90; the remaining listed nationalities 30 days.
    • This is an ordinary-passport visitor result. It excludes Ukraine’s official-invitation condition, diplomatic/official/service agreements, UN laissez-passer cases, work, residence, transit, extensions and admission decisions.
    • The Consular Department schedule identifies Colombia as ordinary passports only; other listed entries say all passports, but this candidate is limited to ordinary passports.

    Mongolia: temporary 2026 34-country tourist exemption

    Mongolia’s Government and Immigration Agency currently exempt this 34-country cohort from tourist visa requirements for stays up to 30 days in 2026.

    • Valid only for tourism and up to 30 days, in the 2026 programme. It should not be carried forward after 31 December 2026 without a new official measure.
    • This temporary exemption does not establish work, residence, study, long stay, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service, special-document, or case-specific admission rights.
    • Current Immigration material also lists these countries for border tourist-visa issuance; visa-free tourism is the easier applicable route during this programme.

    Mongolia: Republic of Korea temporary tourism exemption

    The current Consular Department schedule records a 90-day all-passport visa exemption for Korean tourism through 31 December 2026.

    • Tourism purpose only, up to 90 days. The time limit is explicit and requires renewed confirmation after 31 December 2026.
    • It does not decide work, residence, study, diplomatic, official, service, transit, crew, special-document or individual admissibility treatment.

    Mongolia: Indian ordinary passport tourist visa at border without prior visa permit

    The Immigration Agency’s current exhaustive border list names India among nationalities to which tourist visas may be issued at the international border without visa permit.

    • This is a tourist visa issued at the international border without a prior visa permit, so it is classified as visa on arrival rather than eVisa or visa-free.
    • The official eVisa country list also names India, but the border-issued tourist route is the easier applicable route for the baseline taxonomy.
    • It does not establish a visa-free right or govern work, residence, study, transit, crew, diplomatic/official/service, special-document, fee, port, duration, extension, security or individual-admissibility questions.

    Mongolia: named ordinary passports eligible for eVisa

    The Immigration Agency’s current exhaustive eVisa-country list names these countries; after removing easier visa-free and Indian border-visa routes, their baseline visitor route is eVisa.

    • Apply electronically before travel through Mongolia’s official eVisa service; this is a visa, not an ETA or a visa on arrival.
    • The portal requires a passport/relevant substitute valid at least 180 days before intended travel; the eVisa is non-extendable and non-convertible.
    • Carry the eVisa copy and the passport used in the application. Border biometrics are mandatory; admission remains discretionary. The inviting person, accommodation provider or host entity must register the foreign national online within 48 hours after arrival.
    • This finding is limited to the named country list and ordinary visitor entry. It does not establish work, residence, study, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service, refugee, alien-document, group-tour, invitation or port-specific rights.
    • The current eVisa portal contains a legacy non-navigable country-list section; this classification relies on the Immigration Agency’s current expressly titled eVisa eligibility list.

    Qatari ordinary passports: Mongolia electronic visitor visa

    Mongolia's current Immigration Agency eVisa system lists Qatar and describes electronic visa issuance after the online application and payment steps.

    • Use an ordinary Qatari passport accepted by Mongolia's current eVisa system; apply, pay and receive the issued visa before travel.
    • Tourism and other visitor-purpose, passport-validity, carrier and final-admission requirements remain separate. Residence, work, invitation-based and border-issued routes are not established by this policy.

    Palestinian ordinary passports: 2026 advance-visa visitor cohort

    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.

    Afghan ordinary passports: Mongolia advance mission visa

    Mongolia's general rule requires a visa application at a diplomatic mission; Afghanistan appears in neither the current closed exemption schedule nor the eVisa eligibility list.

    • Apply for the appropriate ordinary short-visitor visa through a Mongolian diplomatic mission before travel.
    • This classification combines the general visa rule with the current closed exemption and eVisa lists; it does not infer eligibility for special routes.

    Omani ordinary passports: Mongolia advance visitor visa

    Mongolia's current official schedules limit the Oman waiver to diplomatic and special/service passports, omit Oman from the eVisa cohort, and direct other nationals to an embassy visa application.

    • Mongolia's live exemption schedule lists Oman only for diplomatic and special/service passports, not ordinary passports.
    • Oman is not in the Immigration Agency's current eVisa-eligible-country list; the Foreign Ministry directs other foreign nationals to submit an application at a Mongolian embassy.
    • This is an advance visitor-visa baseline, not a finding about work, residence, transit, diplomatic, special or service documents.

    • Bahrain is not in the Immigration Agency's current eVisa-eligible-country list; the Foreign Ministry directs other foreign nationals to submit an application at a Mongolian embassy.

    • This conclusion combines Mongolia's stated general rule with its current closed exemption and eVisa lists; it does not infer a special-document or invitation route.

    • The source applies the 1979 facilitation agreement to Ukrainian nationals and states a maximum stay of 90 days.
