Visas for Syria - Visa Requirements for Syria


For those arranging their visas for Syria – visa requirements for Syria are fairly straightforward, however it is advised to note that due to renewed conflict between Israel and Lebanon certain sensitivities and restrictions may apply to travellers who have Israeli stamps in their passport.

Syria visas are valid for a total of 15 days, and visitors who wish to stay longer than this need to apply to the Emigration and Passport Department to request a short or longer term residency. For general travel, single and double entry visas are available, at the following prices:

•    Single entry: $131.00 embassy fee + $44.95 service fee = $175.95 total cost
•    Double entry: $131.00 embassy fee + $44.95 service fee = $175.95 total cost

Visas take between five and seven days to be processed, and may take longer over holidays or other religious days. The best option is to arrange visas before leaving on your travels, to ensure that everything is arranged in time for your trip.
