Bolivia has eliminated tourism visa requirements for US citizens, announcing its decision on December 1st, 2025. Americans, as well as citizens of Israel, South Korea, South Africa and several eastern European nations that had been obliged to apply and pay for Bolivian tourist visas can now enter the country with only a valid passport for stays up to 90 days.

TAKE NOTE: If you are moving to Bolivia to live, study, volunteer, or work, you must still apply for, and enter with, a Specific Purpose Visa (Visa de Objeto Determinado) or a Student Visa, issued at a Bolivian Consulate.
