Bangladesh and Myanmar ordinary passports: visitor visa before travel
Palau Immigration expressly says Bangladesh and Myanmar nationals must apply for a visa before reaching Palau, rather than use the ordinary visitor visa-on-arrival process.
- Applicants should contact a Palau diplomatic mission, representative authority, or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs from their country of residence. The authority does not establish an eVisa or visa-on-arrival option for these ordinary passports.
- Both nationalities also appear in the current flagged-country pre-clearance process. Complete applications must be submitted at least five days before travel, and incomplete submissions may lead to denied boarding or refusal of entry.
- Any approval remains subject to document validity, stated purpose, accommodation, funds, onward travel, security, and the Director's assessment. Work, residence, transit, diplomatic, official, service, emergency, refugee, or special-document routes are separate.
- All arriving passengers must have a valid passport or travel document, submit the Palau Entry Form no more than 72 hours before departure, and present its QR code at check-in and arrival.
