IMPORTANT: Your passport must have more than 6 months validity remaining after your travel date in order to apply for a visa.  It must also contain at least one blank visa page for entry & exit stamps.

Scan or take a photo of the information pages of your passport: Passport Scan Example.  The image must be clear and in color. This must be uploaded, or emailed to us during the application process. 

If your passport has been amended (name changed, validity extended—found in the back pages of your passport) you will also need to scan and upload along with your passport information pages.

A passport photo will need to be uploaded, or emailed to us, as a part of the application process. You may either:

(1) Scan a recent 2x2 passport photograph. Please don't take a picture of your passport photo - the passport photo must be scanned.
  OR
(2) Take a digital photo using a camera. You must attach the original file size (100KB or larger)- thumbnail size is not accepted. Please make sure the picture is taken against a light/white background.

IMPORTANT:
All photos must meet these requirements:

• The photo must have been taken within the last six months.
• Glasses cannot be worn.
• Closed mouth smile.
• Lighting must be even – no shadows.
• The background must be a flat, blank white or very light wall.
