For many travellers the Federated States of Micronesia asks for no visa on stays of 30 days or less. The advice we read is written for British passports, so we check yours first. We also prepare the entry permit if you plan to stay longer, and we go through the passport, ticket and departure tax rules with you before you book.
The rule in the advice we read
The UK Foreign Office entry requirements for Micronesia, read on , say a visa is not required for visits of 30 days or less. For longer stays you apply for an entry permit through the FSM Immigration Office. Those without a valid permit complete the CIQ form on arrival.
The page is aimed at British citizens. We could not open the Micronesian immigration site, so we do not claim the same rule for every passport that a UAE resident might hold. The adviser checks that part.
What to carry
| Item | Rule |
|---|---|
| Passport | Expiry at least 120 days after arrival |
| Ticket | Return or onward ticket may be asked at the border |
| Stay beyond 30 days | Entry permit needed |
| Leaving | Departure tax of 20 US dollars |

Where we help
- Checking your passport against the rule before you pay for flights
- Preparing the entry permit request for a longer stay
- Looking over the dates, so your ticket out matches your permitted stay
There is no Micronesian embassy in the UAE that we could confirm. So the work is done on paper, and nobody in Dubai stamps anything.
If you also plan the Marshall Islands
The Marshall Islands sit next door but use their own rules and a USD 100 visitor visa. Read Marshall Islands visa for UAE residents. For a short list of easy trips from the UAE, see visa-free countries for UAE residents.
How it works with us
Send your passport copy and dates on WhatsApp or the form on this page. An adviser tells you whether you can go without a visa, whether you need the permit, and gives one price for any filing work. DubaiVisaDesk.com is a private visa service, and Micronesian immigration decides entry.
Where a permit is refused, the adviser has already told you in writing what part of our total, if any, comes back.
