Entry requirements

No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required by law, but airlines may enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Micronesia | Immigration officers at Pohnpei and Chuuk airports routinely ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket. Have a printed or digital copy of your flight booking ready to show at the counter. | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | You may be asked where you are staying during your visit. A hotel reservation or a letter from your host with their address and contact number covers this request. | Recommended |

Flights are limited
Micronesia is remote. Most international flights arrive via Guam (United Airlines) or Honolulu. Book well in advance and expect limited schedules.
Healthcare is basic
Medical facilities are limited, especially on outer islands. For serious issues, evacuation to Guam or Hawaii may be needed. Travel insurance with evacuation coverage is strongly recommended.
