What visayes is

visayes is a software tool for the government formalities you take care of before arriving in another country: finding out what your passport needs for your destination, and getting the entry form that destination requires filled in correctly. It covers visa policies for 197 countries and territories worldwide.

You stay in control

Every guide is checked against the government portal itself, and every page links you to the destination’s own government so you can verify it for yourself. Most services in this space ask you to hand everything over and wait; visayes works the other way: checking what applies to you is free, and the form is always submitted by you, on the government’s own site. We are a bridge between you and the official process — not a middleman standing in it.

Your privacy

Your passport details and health declarations never leave your device — we have no way to read them; the one exception is the passport photo you choose to scan, which passes through a recognition service once and is discarded, not kept. The form-filling runs as automation we built, in your own browser and under your supervision.

The full detail — what is stored, where, and for how long — is in our Privacy Policy.

What we charge

One service fee, charged only after the official government site confirms it has your submission. Checking requirements, official links, and guidance are free.

How we check the data

Visa policies are collected one passport at a time — one file per passport, each holding every destination — and every row is cross-checked against a second signal on the same source page before it is written. Each passport page prints the day its own file was collected; the set as a whole was last collected on 13 Aug 2026. We do not stamp today’s date on data we did not re-check today.

The arrival card guides are checked against the government portal itself. Our tooling reads the live official form and derives from it the field map used to fill it in; a reconciler compares what we hold against that form, and our build fails the moment the official form changes shape. That is why each guide carries its own checked-on date rather than a shared one:

Entry rules can change without notice, and a date on this site is a statement about when we looked — not a guarantee that nothing has changed since. The destination’s own government is always the final word, which is why every page links to it.
