Myanmar To Offer Visa On Arrival To Indian Tourists: Report

Holders of the visas will be "allowed to visit all sites apart from restricted areas for security concerns", said the report.

Myanmar will offer visas on arrival to Chinese and Indian tourists, state media reported, as the ruling junta seeks to lure back foreign visitors and their cash. A start date for the one-year trial scheme "will be announced soon", the Global New Light of Myanmar reported, citing the junta's immigration ministry.

Holders of the visas will be "allowed to visit all sites apart from restricted areas for security concerns", said the report in Thursday's newspaper.

Currently citizens of both countries must apply for a tourist visa online, or at a Myanmar embassy.
