No visa on arrival — apply before you fly

Passport validity is strictly enforced
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your departure date from Mongolia. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires sooner, you will be denied boarding.
Overstay fines add up quickly
Overstaying your visa costs about $10 USD per day. Pay at the immigration office before leaving. Unpaid fines can lead to a ban on re-entry.
