Okay, so I decided to get myself a Vanuatu visa. Here’s how it went down.
First off, I thought, “Let’s not wait till the last minute.” You know how it is, gotta plan ahead. I heard you can apply like 90 days before you actually wanna go. So, I started early, keeping in mind that it takes some time to process these things.
I went online, found this official-looking Vanuatu government website. It had all the info I needed, or so I thought. I had to fill out a bunch of forms. I began to fill in my details in their online application, which was pretty straightforward.

- Filled out the application form online. It asked for the usual stuff – name, passport details, travel dates, you name it.
- Gathered all the necessary documents. This included my passport, a recent photo, proof of where I’d be staying in Vanuatu, and a bank statement to show I wasn’t going to run out of money.
- Submitted the application. I double-checked everything, made sure all the documents were attached, and hit that submit button.
What I did step-by-step:
Then came the waiting game. After submitting, I got a confirmation email, which was a relief. They said they’d review my application and get back to me. The waiting was kind of nerve-wracking, not gonna lie. I kept checking my email every few hours, hoping for that visa approval.
Finally, after a few weeks, I got the good news! My visa was approved. It was such a great feeling, knowing that my trip to Vanuatu was actually gonna happen. I printed out the visa confirmation and started getting even more excited about the trip.
So, that’s pretty much it. Applying for the Vanuatu visa was a bit of a process, but it wasn’t too bad. Just make sure you start early, have all your documents ready, and be patient while they process your application. Now, I’m all set for my adventure in Vanuatu!
