How it works

1

Check the route

Pick a passport and a destination. You get the requirement and the maximum stay in one screen — no account, no paywall.

2

Read the evidence

Every pair page carries one of two stamps: verified against an official source on a stated date, or honestly labelled as dataset-only. Nothing in between.

✓ Verified — last checked 25 Oct 2026

Example stamp. Each one names its official source and links to it.

3

Travel

Follow the “What to do next” steps on the pair page — apply ahead where the status requires it, or just go where it doesn't.

Checked data vs copied data

Most visa sites

  • Copy one dataset and never re-check it
  • No date on any answer — fresh and stale look identical
  • Errors fixed silently, if at all
  • Expiry dates on temporary rules never shown

visafreely

  • A verified date and a named official source on 1,520 pairs — and counting
  • Every correction published in a public changelog: old value, new value, source
  • Announced end dates shown as “Scheduled change” warnings on the pair page
  • Unverified pairs labelled plainly, never dressed up

Most visa sites quietly copy one dataset and never check it. We show our work: pairs checked against an official source carry a “Last verified” date and a link to that source, corrections are published in the data changelog, and everything else is honestly labelled with the dataset's own date.

Spot an error?

If a page here disagrees with an official source, that is exactly the feedback the changelog runs on — every confirmed discrepancy becomes a published correction with its source attached.
