Czechia to Myanmar
Do I need a visa for Myanmar?
Czech citizens must have an approved electronic visa (e-visa) for tourist travel to Myanmar, and you must obtain it online before you depart. The e-visa is not issued at the border and is required in advance. This tourist permission does not permit paid work or study in Myanmar.
Which documents do I need?
Your ordinary Czech passport is the required travel document for this route and must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry. A national identity card, a driving licence and a temporary passport are not accepted for entry into Myanmar.
Are vaccinations required for Myanmar?
No vaccinations are mandatory to enter Myanmar. Rabies vaccination is recommended for both short-term and long-term travellers.
How long can I stay, and can I extend it?
The permitted length of stay for your e-visa varies and is not stated here. Extensions or penalties for overstaying are not described in these sources; obtain the e-visa before travel and plan to comply with the stay period shown on your e-visa.
Can children travel on this route?
Children under 18 travelling to Myanmar need only the accepted travel document (a valid passport); they do not require additional parental-consent letters or notarised permissions for this tourist route.
Do I need travel insurance?
Travel insurance is recommended but it is not a condition of entry. The Czech Foreign Ministry recommends insurance that covers medical evacuation to Bangkok, because such evacuation can cost thousands of US dollars.
Where do I get the visa?
You must apply for the e-visa through the official Myanmar eVisa portal linked on this page; the e-visa is issued electronically and must be held before departure. The embassy links on this page are provided for consular assistance only, not as an application route.
