Visa required — apply early
There is no visa on arrival for Mongolian passport holders. You must get a visa from a Guyanese embassy before you fly. Processing can take weeks, so start the process at least a month in advance.
Passport validity counts from entry date
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the day you arrive in Guyana, not from when you leave. If it expires sooner, renew it before applying for the visa.

Processing typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, but it can vary. Apply at least a month before your planned departure to be safe.
You apply at a Guyanese embassy or consulate. If there is no Guyanese mission in Mongolia, check the nearest embassy that handles Guyana visas — often in Beijing, Tokyo, or New Delhi. Contact them directly for instructions.

Visa fees vary by embassy and visa type. Expect to pay around $50–$100 USD, but confirm with the embassy where you apply. Fees are usually non-refundable.
Extensions are not available for visa holders. You must leave before your visa expires. If you need a longer stay, apply for a longer-duration visa before traveling.
