Warning

Spain's Foreign Ministry strongly advises against travel to Haiti

Security has deteriorated since 2021, with waves of kidnappings and frequent shortages of fuel and basic goods. Spain's Foreign Ministry asks Spanish citizens whose presence is not essential to leave the country, preferably on commercial flights, because most roads are unsafe. Much of the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area must be avoided entirely, and not even the wealthier districts are free of roadblocks and shootings. The land border with the Dominican Republic is closed except for humanitarian cases. Travellers should report their trip to the Spanish Embassy in Port-au-Prince (emb.puertoprincipe@maec.es).

Haiti rules for every passport

Vaccinations, customs limits and penalties are the same for every traveller.

Vaccinations

Yellow fever: according to the UK Government, only for travellers arriving from a country with risk of transmission.

Customs limits

Cash: There are no restrictions on bringing in foreign currency, but in practice only the US dollar, which circulates widely alongside the gourde, is easy to exchange.

Grounds for refusal

Trying to enter with an identity card instead of a passport.

What to do if you are refused entry →

Do you need a different visa for Port-au-Prince, Cap-Haïtien, or Les Cayes?

No. Haiti sets the requirements, so entering through Port-au-Prince asks for the same as entering through Cap-Haïtien or Les Cayes. If you're arriving overland or through a small border post, check that separately: some countries apply their own rules to specific crossings.

What does change is where you file the application when a visa is needed, and that depends on the country you live in rather than the city you're travelling to.
