Marshall Islands Visa for Pakistan Citizens 2026

Visa Required

Pakistani citizens need a visa for the Marshall Islands, applied for through the Embassy of the Republic of the Marshall Islands in Washington, D.C. (the nearest diplomatic mission, since there is no representation in Pakistan or the wider region) - fee around USD 50, processing typically 10-15 business days by post.

Guide last updated October 20, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the intended stay, with at least 2 blank pages
  • Completed Marshall Islands visa application form
  • Recent passport-style photo
  • Proof of onward/return travel itinerary
  • Hotel booking confirmation or sponsor/invitation letter if visiting family, business, or NGO contacts
  • Proof of sufficient funds for the trip
  • Biometrics are not collected in advance; standard immigration checks apply on arrival at Amata Kabua International Airport

Visa types

  • Tourist visa: single entry, typically valid for a stay of up to 30 days, approximate fee USD 50
  • Business visa: single entry, requires an invitation letter from a sponsoring organization, similar fee to tourist
  • Longer-stay permits for work or extended business are handled separately through the Marshall Islands' Immigration Division once in-country sponsorship is confirmed

How to apply

  • Since there is no Marshall Islands mission in Pakistan or nearby, applications are submitted by post or courier to the Embassy of the Republic of the Marshall Islands in Washington, D.C. (rmiembassyus.org), or coordinated through a local sponsor in Majuro who liaises with the Immigration Division
  • Steps: complete the application form, attach supporting documents, send to the embassy with the fee (money order or as instructed)
  • Fee: approximately USD 50, payable as directed by the embassy (often money order given the lack of in-person facilities)
  • Processing time: typically 10-15 business days once received, plus international courier transit time to and from Pakistan
  • Approval is returned as a visa document or authorization letter to present on arrival; some travelers arrange pre-clearance directly with Majuro's Immigration Division where a visa-on-arrival style process is permitted case by case

Fees & processing time

  • Visa fee: approximately USD 50
  • Courier/postal costs: additional USD 30-60 round trip given the distance from Pakistan to Washington, D.C.
  • Total estimated cost: approximately USD 80-110 including shipping
  • Standard processing: 10-15 business days at the embassy, excluding courier transit time
  • No formal express service; given the logistics, start the process at least 4-6 weeks before travel

Tips for Pakistan travelers

  • Begin the application well in advance (at least a month) given the reliance on postal/courier processing through Washington, D.C.
  • Common delay reasons: incomplete sponsor documentation, unclear itinerary, missing proof of return travel
  • Confirm directly with the embassy or a local sponsor in Majuro whether a simplified entry authorization can be arranged instead of full postal processing
  • Keep digital scans of every submitted document in case originals are delayed or lost in transit
  • There is no option to extend significantly beyond the initial visa validity without prior coordination with the Marshall Islands' Immigration Division
