eVisa vs Regular Visa
Both documents are Legal documents which allow one or multiple entries, or a permit to visit a country. Most countries have modernized their immigration systems and allow electronic processes for internet based Visa.
eVisa or electronic Visa offered for over 100 countries on this website is a completely online process, meaning there is no need for you to:
1) Courier your passport
2) Visit Embassy
3) Visit Government Office
4) Get a physical stamp or sticker on your passport
eVisa is sent to you by email which can be taken with you to the cruise terminal or the airport along with your passport. The record of eVisa is electronic and you will be allowed to board the plane or cruise based on the email or electronic approval. Unfortunately Puerto Rico has not yet created an online process, so we are unable to help you with eVisa approval as of today. Therefore, you are requested to contact the nearest embassy of Puerto Rico.
