Any foreign visitor who plans to visit Papua New Guinea must apply for a tourist visa or a visitor's permit. Those with refugee passports cannot apply online, they must go to an embassy in person. Other people with ordinary passports can apply online, without having to travel.

A PNG visitor's permit is valid for 30 or 60 days, depending on your needs. The e-tourist visa is valid for 60 days, and you must choose the reason for your visit. In both cases, they are single-entry visas meaning that you will only be able to enter and exit the country once on that visa.
