Verified practical details
You don't need a visa to enter Guatemala, but here are some practical details worth knowing before you travel:
Fee
No entry fee for visa-exempt nationalities. Not verified for nationalities that do require a visa.
Required documents
- Electronic or machine-readable passport valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry.
- Onward or return ticket.
- Central American Unified Traveler's Declaration (DUCA-F), electronic, mandatory since July 2023 on entry and exit (generates a QR code).
- Check that the immigration officer stamps your passport on entry: there are documented cases of tourists not getting an entry stamp at a land border crossing and later being charged a fine for "irregular stay".
Health insurance
Not mandatory for this destination.

Stay of up to 90 days, extendable once, shared with the rest of the CA-4 bloc (El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua): the count doesn't reset when crossing from Guatemala into any of those three countries. Important: this is only an internal mobility regime: each CA-4 country sets its own entry visa policy for third countries. Nicaragua unilaterally tightened its own in February 2026, requiring prior authorisation from nationalities that previously entered without one; this doesn't change anything about entering Guatemala itself, but it can affect anyone planning to cross from Guatemala into Nicaragua within the same trip.
