Common Reasons for Entry Denial and How to Avoid Them
Common bottlenecks at entry: Check yourself before you travel

Avoid:Ensure you have your passport, round-trip flight tickets, accommodation proof, photos, and visa fees ready, and carry physical copies with you.
3
Incorrect port scope
Avoid:Visa on arrival is available only at designated airports or ports in some countries. Please verify that your entry point is on the approved list before traveling.
