What this means for your trip

Visa-free entry lets you arrive with a valid passport and pass border control without applying in advance.

The permitted length of stay is set at the border; ask the officer if it is not stamped in your passport.

Your passport should normally be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date and have blank pages for stamps; many countries apply this rule.
