Mongolia introduces electronic visas to boost tourism
Promoting tourism is considered a key priority for diversifying the economy and enhancing the competitiveness.
Mongolia’s Immigration Agency announced on Thursday that it had begun issuing all categories of visas electronically.
This is in line with the government’s objective to streamline visa issuance and improve service delivery for foreigners visiting Mongolia for official or personal reasons.
All the 54 categories of visas issued by Mongolia’s Immigration Agency, based on inviter requests, are now available electronically, the agency said.
The move is part of the Mongolian government’s efforts to promote the development of the tourism sector.
Inviter requests can be submitted directly through the department’s official website.
Currently, Mongolia’s economy relied heavily on mineral resource exports.
Promoting tourism is considered a key priority for diversifying the economy and enhancing the competitiveness of the domestic tourism sector in a global context.
In 2021, the Asian country began issuing certain types of visas electronically, and since then, more than 110,000 e-visas have been granted to foreigners, according to the immigration agency.
