Electronic Visa on Arrival – e-VOA (B1)

• Duration & Cost: Same as the standard VOA.

• Benefits: Skip long lines at the airport and enjoy an easier extension process. With the e-VOA, you can log in to the official site and click “Extend My Visa“, your info is already in the system. But if you get your VOA at the airport, none of that’s saved, so extending it means two trips to the Visa Office: one to apply, and another to collect it.
• Tips: Use your phone to sign up, it’s faster and easier. During the process, you’ll be prompted to take a picture of your passport, and the system will automatically fill in all the required details.
