Myanmar (also known as Burma) is a Southeast Asian country bordering India, Bangladesh, China, Laos, and Thailand. Known for ancient Buddhist temples at Bagan, Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon, Inle Lake floating villages, and Mandalay's cultural heritage. The country experienced limited tourism development during periods of political opening. Yangon (Rangoon), the former capital, has colonial architecture and serves as the commercial center, while Naypyidaw is the current capital. IMPORTANT: Multiple governments including the UK, United States, Germany, Australia, and Switzerland currently maintain travel warnings for most regions of Myanmar. The UK Foreign Office advises against all travel to multiple states and against all but essential travel to others. Travelers should consult current official advisories from their respective foreign ministries before making any travel plans.

Visa Requirements for Myanmar

Myanmar's e-visa system (evisa.moip.gov.mm) technically remains operational for tourist and business visas, offering 28-day single entry permissions with processing typically within 3-5 days for $50 USD. The process requires passport scan, photo, and travel details. IMPORTANT ADVISORY INFORMATION: The UK Foreign Office advises against all travel to several states including Chin, Kachin, Rakhine, and northern Shan State, while advising against all but essential travel to Naypyidaw, Mandalay, and other regions. According to the FCDO, 'The conflict in Myanmar is increasingly volatile. The security situation may deteriorate at short notice.' Multiple governments including the US, Germany, Australia, and Switzerland maintain similar warnings. The UK notes that 'many embassies – including the British Embassy in Pyongyang – remain closed' and that support is 'severely limited.' Travel insurance may be invalidated when traveling against government advice. Travelers should consult current official advisories before applying for visas or making travel plans.

Important Travel Information

Government Travel Advisories: Multiple governments maintain significant travel warnings for Myanmar. The UK Foreign Office advises against all travel to Chin State, Kachin State, Rakhine State, Shan State North, and other regions, while advising against all but essential travel to Naypyidaw Region, Mandalay Region, and additional areas. Similar warnings are in effect from US, German, Australian, Swiss, and Canadian authorities. The UK FCDO notes that 'The conflict in Myanmar is increasingly volatile. The security situation may deteriorate at short notice.'

Consular Support Limitations: Diplomatic support is significantly limited. According to the UK FCDO, support is 'severely limited, especially while there is no British Embassy presence.' The lack of internet and mobile network access in many areas makes communication outside the country difficult. Most Western embassies operate with reduced capacity or remotely.

Border Status: Myanmar's borders have experienced periodic closures and restrictions. International passenger routes have not fully reopened in some cases. Travelers should verify current border crossing conditions and transportation availability before making plans.
