## Evidence timeline

- **Current official route — Group III ordinary passports: tourist/visit visa with prior DIGEMIG verification** (Visa required)
  The current Ministry country API assigns these 18 unambiguously mapped catalog nationalities to Group III. The current framework requires a tourism/visit visa after verification and authorization by DIGEMIG; the duplicate contradictory Libya records are left unresolved.
  - This is a visa requirement with prior Group III verification and authorization by DIGEMIG. A border-issued authorization is possible only exceptionally after reasoned DIGEMIG authorization, so it is not a nationality-wide visa-on-arrival route and is not normalized as eVisa or ETA.
  - The Ministry’s electronic service accepts visa applications, but reviewed sources establish consular issuance and do not establish electronic issuance of the visa or electronic permission to board.
  - The general tourism/visit application requirements and final border-admission control apply. Residence, work, study, transit, diplomatic, official, service, emergency, refugee, stateless, special-document and third-country-document rules are excluded.
