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 length of your stay in Haiti. Airlines check this at check-in — if your passport expires before you leave, you will be denied boarding. | Required |

| Proof of accommodation Hotel booking or host invitation | Carry a hotel reservation confirmation or a letter of invitation from your host in Haiti. Officers occasionally ask for it, especially if you arrive without a clear itinerary. | Recommended |
| Proof of funds Evidence of sufficient money for your stay | Have bank statements, a credit card, or cash available to show you can cover your expenses. Immigration may ask for this if you look under-resourced. | Recommended |
Safety first
Haiti has ongoing security concerns. Check your government's travel advisory before booking. Avoid traveling alone at night, and stay in well-known tourist areas.
No visa needed, but be prepared
You don't need a visa, but immigration can still deny entry if they suspect you'll overstay or work illegally. Have your return ticket and accommodation proof ready.
What happens at the border
1
Arrive at Toussaint Louverture International Airport (PAP)
After landing, follow signs to 'Immigration'. There's usually one queue for all foreign passports. Have your passport and return ticket ready. The officer will stamp you in for up to 90 days. The process takes 10–20 minutes if there's no line.
2
Present documents at immigration counter
Hand over your passport and return ticket. The officer may ask your purpose of visit and where you're staying. Answer briefly. They'll stamp your passport and you're through.
3
Collect luggage and proceed to customs
After immigration, go to baggage claim. Customs is usually a quick walk-through. Declare any large amounts of cash or goods if required.
