This records a visa-required baseline, not an eVisa or visa-on-arrival route. - The Government directly names this closed 21-nationality cohort as excluded from the unilateral visa abolition from 1 May 2023; BIBIS confirms the visa requirement was reinstated for the 21 countries. - This is normalized as visa_required, not evisa: the official explanation calls the system a digital visa application system but does not establish electronically issued ordinary-tourism visas for this entire cohort. BIBIS separately says visa-required travellers may not travel without a valid visa. No visa-on-arrival route is stated. - The Entry Fee is a separate fee/voucher mechanism. It is not treated as a visa, ETA, eVisa or visa-on-arrival status, and it does not displace the stated visa requirement. - For Cuba, Dominican Republic and Venezuela, BIBIS says a tourist card was reintroduced alongside the visa for tourist, business and short-stay travel. The card is recorded only as an additional condition, not a separate normalized status. - The Government separately states an Entry Fee of USD 50 or EUR 50 plus a VFS Global service fee of USD 8 or EUR 8, payable at each entry; it is not a visa fee or visa category. No visa duration, entries, extension, port, admission result, health, funds or onward-travel condition is inferred. Residence, PSA, transit, CARICOM, diplomatic, service, special, official, international-organization, business, work and third-country-document exceptions are outside this ordinary visitor baseline.

The remaining catalog foreign ordinary-passport rows are therefore visa-free under that stated general rule and closed exception. - This policy applies only to foreign ordinary passports outside the current named 21-country exception and only to tourism or family visits, for a maximum stay of 90 days. - The 2022 general rule expressly covered all foreign nationalities; the current Ministry page identifies the precise nationalities for which it ceased to apply from 1 May 2023. No rule is inferred merely from omission. - The Entry Fee is a separate fee/voucher mechanism, not an ETA, eVisa, visa on arrival or visa-free exception. The Ministry says its PDF voucher is electronically sent after online payment; that issuance concerns the fee only. - Business, internship, work, residence, PSA, transit, diplomatic, service, special, official, international-organization and third-country-document routes are outside this ordinary tourist/family baseline. Final admission and other travel-document requirements are not established here.

This is a visa-required baseline, not a visa-on-arrival policy or a finding of electronically issued visas. - The Government directly names this closed 21-nationality cohort as excluded from unilateral visa abolition from 1 May 2023; BIBIS confirms the visa requirement was reinstated for the 21 countries. - The Government’s E-Visa directory and BIBIS explanation establish an authorized online application service, but the opened official workflow does not state that a final ordinary visitor visa for this whole cohort is issued electronically. It is consequently normalized as visa_required, not evisa. - No visa-on-arrival route is stated. The separate Government Entry Fee voucher is not treated as a visa, ETA, eVisa or visa-on-arrival status, and does not displace the visa requirement. - For Cuba, Dominican Republic and Venezuela, BIBIS says a tourist card was reintroduced alongside the visa for tourist, business and short-stay travel. This alternate document is retained as a condition, not a separate normalized status. - No visa duration, entries, extension, port, admission result, health, funds or onward-travel condition is inferred. Residence, PSA, transit, CARICOM, diplomatic, service, special, official, international-organization, business, work and third-country-document exceptions are outside this ordinary visitor baseline.

This records the catalog home-nationality relationship, not a foreign visitor permission. - This is the citizenship/home relationship for a Surinamese national ordinary passport, not a finding about visa-free visitor admission or a substitute for travel-document, exit, criminal, health or final-entry rules.
