Do you need a visa to travel to Belize?

If you are travelling or transiting to Belize, you may require a Belize entry visa.

A visa allows you to enter Belize and remain legal in Belize for a maximum of 30 days from date of entry.

If you will be staying longer that 30 days in Belize, you will need to visit an Immigration Office to extend your stay in Belize. The permit required to extend your stay in Belize beyond the 30 days is the ‘Belize Visitor’s Permit Extension.’

While you may not require a visa to enter Belize or be exempted to apply for a Belize entry visa, any visit exceeding 30, 60, 90, and 180 days will require a visa and requisite extensions to remain legal in Belize.

To search if you qualify for a Visa enter country of nationality to see if you may require visa to Belize.
