Will I be asked to prove I have enough money?
There is no requirement to show proof of funds on arrival; you will not be asked to present bank statements or similar documents as a rule.
Can I get a visa on arrival at Port Moresby airport?
Entry at Jacksons International Airport in Port Moresby uses visa procedures at the airport, but airport visas are not issued at Jacksons International for some visa types according to the source; the common process for Czech travellers is visa on arrival administered at the border. Follow the official guidance on this page for the correct process.
