๐Ÿ‡ฒ๐Ÿ‡ฒ Does a Burmese need a visa for Syria ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‡พ?

Visa required

Yes. Burmese passport holders need a visa for Syria, applied for at an embassy or consulate of Syria before travelling.

Rule updated from Wikipedia's โ€œVisa requirements for Myanmar citizensโ€ (checked 2026-10-04); the older passport-index dataset (January 2025) listed e-Visa. Entry rules change: confirm with the embassy of Syria or its official government website before you travel.

โš  U.S. State Department travel advisory for Syria: Level 4: Do Not Travel (updated 11 December 2025). It is written for U.S. citizens; read the advisory before you book.

What this means for your trip

You apply at an embassy, consulate or authorised visa centre of the destination, usually with an application form, passport photos, bank statements, travel itinerary and accommodation bookings.

Processing takes days to weeks, and some embassies require an interview; start the application well before your trip.

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.
