Entry requirements
| Requirement | Details | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport Must be valid for the duration of your stay | Your passport must be valid for at least the entire period you plan to stay in Mongolia. No minimum validity beyond your departure date is required by Mongolian immigration, but airlines may enforce a 6-month rule — check with your carrier before flying. | Required |
| Return or onward ticket Proof of departure from Mongolia | Immigration officers at Chinggis Khaan International Airport routinely ask for a confirmed onward or return ticket. Have a printed copy or a screenshot ready on your phone. Overstaying the 30-day visa-free period incurs a fine of 10,000 MNT per day (about $3 USD). | Recommended |
| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Border officers may ask where you're staying, especially if you arrive without a pre-booked hotel. A printed reservation confirmation or a letter from your host with their address and phone number is enough. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Show you can support yourself | Mongolian law requires visitors to have at least 500,000 MNT (about $150 USD) per person for the duration of their stay. A bank statement, credit card, or cash is fine — officers rarely ask, but be ready. | Recommended |
Passport validity is strictly enforced
Airlines check this before you board. If your passport expires within 6 months of your arrival date, you will not be allowed to fly. Double-check before you book.
No visa, no fee, no forms
Lithuanian passport holders get a full 30 days visa-free. No application, no payment, no arrival card. Just show your passport and onward ticket.
