Chile: named ordinary passports require advance transient-stay visa
Chile’s current consular transient-stay schedule expressly marks these named nationality rows “SI” under whether a transient-stay visa is required. The authoritative process says a prior authorization or visa is granted by Chilean consulates, so the normalized baseline is visa_required rather than eVisa or visa on arrival.
- The current schedule directly assigns these nationality rows “SI” under the column asking whether a transient-stay visa is required; it is not an inferred complement.
- Chile’s authority describes the authorization or visa as granted by a Chilean consulate. Submitting material through the consular platform does not by itself make the route an eVisa.
- The schedule’s conditional exemptions for specified holders of foreign visas, Green Cards or permanent residence are not used to change a passport-wide baseline.
- No nationality-wide visa-on-arrival, ETA or eVisa route is established by the cited schedule. Residence, work, study, transit, crew, diplomatic, official, service, territory, special-document and final-admission cases are excluded.
