Countries That Do Not Mandate A Travel Visa

While a travel visa is needed for U.S. citizens to enter many countries, there are quite a few places you can visit where no visa is required.


Visa-free refers to the ability to travel to a foreign country without the need for a travel visa. In such a case, only a valid passport is required for entry and exit purposes. Visa on arrival means that travellers must obtain a visa in order to enter the destination country, but it can be obtained upon arrival.


If you’re arranging for an international adventure but making every effort to cut costs, choosing a destination from the list below is one more way to save some money on travel expenses.


The countries are listed according to the length of time that travelers are permitted to stay without the need to get a visa. If you are planning a trip to a location that is not listed below, you should verify the travel entry requirements.
