days for tourists & 3 months for business. You must

(Package) Visa. We encourage you to
E.V.T. (Package Tour Visa )

This Visa can be obtained at every Myanmar embassy or
consulate by submitting passport and 3 photographs! You
don't need Invitation letter for it and usually it takes
4-5 days and visa fee is USD20. It was necessary to
change 200 USD into equivalent 200 FEC compulsorily till
the last September 2003. But, now government release it
and those FIT visa holders also do not need to change
FEC 200 on arrival at the Yangon airport. But we would
like to strongly recommend that our clients to get the
E.V.T Package visa by getting the recommendation letter
