Visa requirements
Mongolia
Passport
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after departure from Mongolia and must have a digitally readable chip. Electronically readable passports can be recognized by the E symbol on the cover, flyleaf or holder page of your passport.
Do you not have an electronically readable passport? Then you cannot apply for an e-visa for Mongolia. In that case, you must submit a regular Mongolia visa application to the Mongolian embassy in Brussels.
Passport photograph
To apply for your Mongolia visa, you must submit a digital passport photo. It is best to have these made at the passport photographer and ask them to send the photo to you by email.
Additional document for the Mongolian visa
Depending on the visa type you have chosen, we need the following documents:
- Statement from your health or travel insurer stating in English that you have cover in Mongolia during your entire stay.
- A bank statement in your name with sufficient balance, with which you indicate that you can support yourself during your stay.
- Letter of invitation from Mongolia, which the hotel often provides. This invitation must be issued by the Mongolian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
- A hotel and airline ticket confirmation in the applicant’s name.
Print the e-visa
Once you have received your approved e-visa you must print it and attach it loose inside the passport. Upon arrival you must present it to the immigration officer. Make sure it is in no way damaged.
Buy Mongolia visa and apply completely online
Do you want to go on a holiday or business trip to Mongolia? Then you must apply for a visa before departure.
For Mongolia this can be done in two ways, namely:
- Via the embassy, where you must physically deliver the passport and documents; OR
- Electronic, which goes entirely online
Below we explain what you can expect per Mongolia visa and how the procedure works.
E-visa for Mongolia
Do you want to buy a (e-)visa Mongolia for your holiday or business trip? Then you can do that entirely online at Traveldocs.
Applying for an electronic Mongolia visa is as follows:
You place the application via our website and answer all necessary questions. We will then send you an email confirming that we have received your Mongolia visa application in good order. You will then receive an email stating exactly what documents we need from you.
You collect these documents yourself and send them to us by e-mail. Our visa experts will then check the documents for correctness and completeness. Is something incomplete or in accordance with the requirements for the Mongolia visa? Then we will inform you immediately.
Only when all documents are ready do we forward them to the Mongolian immigration service. They will review your application within 72 hours. This means that you will receive the visa within 3 (working) days. We will send these via email. You only have to print it yourself and put it separately in the passport.
Apply for a regular Mongolia visa
Would you rather apply for a Mongolia visa that will be added to your passport, because you will be staying in the country longer than the permitted period of stay of the Mongolia e-visa, for example?
Then Traveldocs is also happy to assist you. In that case, please contact us. In addition to a payment link, we will also send you the necessary documents by email. You must send this, together with your passport and passport photos, to osn by registered mail or you can bring it in person. We will then go to the embassy in Brussels for you to submit the application, and will collect your passport containing the visa on your behalf. You will then receive the passport containing the Mongolia visa back from us using the return method you have chosen.
Costs visa Mongolia
Below you will find per person the costs you pay for the Mongolia visa. These include VAT and our brokerage fees. The regular Mongolia visa does not include any shipping costs, but does includes consular costs.
- For the e-visa Mongolia you pay only €78.95 per person.
- The regular Mongolia visa costs per person from € 149.95 euros.
The above costs include VAT and our mediation.
Validity Mongolian visa
Both the Mongolia e-visa and the regular Mongolia visa allow you to stay in the country for 30 days.
- The regular visa is valid for 90 days after issuance, with the stay of 30 days falling within this period.
- The e-visa Mongolia is valid for 150 days from the moment of issue. Here too you can stay in the country for up to 30 days within the visa validity.
Your period of stay must therefore fall within the visa validity. Is the stay longer than the allowed period? Then please contact us.
Processing time
It varies per visa type how long it takes the Mongolian authorities before your application is ready (for use).
The e-visa has a processing time of only 72 hours or 3 working days. These start the day after your application has been submitted to Traveldocs and passed on to the Mongolian Immigration Service.
The regular visa is ready within approximately 7 days after submission to the embassy in Brussels. Because we have to bring your passport and documents to Belgium and collect them again, we charge 2 working days extra for driving up and down.
Advantages and disadvantages visa Mongolia
Below you can read the advantages and disadvantages per visa type for Mongolia.
Advantage of buying the e-Visa Mongolia
The advantage of the Mongolia e-visa is that everything is done entirely online and is ready in just 3 days. It is a quick process, where you no longer have to hand over your passport or documents in person. You can therefore simply keep and use your passport during processing. In addition, the Mongolian e-visa is valid for longer than the regular visa, which gives you more time to prepare your trip and for the visa application itself.
The downside of the Mongolia e-visa is that it can be inconvenient for those who are not very good at working on computers and you only get one entry with the e-visa. This means that as soon as you exit the Mongolian borders, your e-visa will no longer be valid and cannot be used again.
Advantage of buying the regular visa Mongolia
The regular visa has the advantage that it often has a double entry. This is especially necessary for those who take the Trans-Siberian express if you will enter the country several times and therefore travel through Mongolia both outward and back by train. The e-visa Mongolia expires as soon as you have left the Mongolian borders and you may have to apply again from abroad. With the regular visa you do not have this problem.
The disadvantage of the regular Mongolia visa is that the costs are much higher and you have to hand over your passport and documents. You will therefore lose this during the processing. This is not always pleasant and especially for business travelers who do not have a second passport, often inconvenient, because you lose the passport for 1 week.
