But in addition to volcanoes, Ecuador is ready to surprise with resorts , cuisine and fauna. Before you get acquainted with this picturesque country, you need to know information about visa issuance.

Do I need a visa for Ecuador for Russians?

It is surprising that the hospitality of Ecuador is manifested not only in the goodwill of the local population and the well-developed tourism business, but also in the opportunity to visit the country without a visa for a period of 90 days (this applies not only to Russian citizens but also to Ukraine). If you plan to spend less than three months in the country, then you only need to have a passport with you, which must have a validity of at least six months from the moment of crossing the Ecuadorian border and tickets in both directions. In the passport there will be an entry stamp of the T-3 Permit and an opportunity to study the country within 90 days. When leaving, you should have a check that you paid a mandatory tax of $ 25.

Visa application

If you decide to stay in the country and spend at least 91 days there, then you need to collect a thick folder with documents, which must be:

  1. A visa application form filled out in the national (Spanish) or international (English) language.
  2. Passport, which will act from the moment of entry into the country for at least two months.

  4. Quality photocopy of the first page of the passport.
  5. Confirmation of hotel reservation and airline tickets.
  6. Insurance.
  7. Confirmation of financial stability (an extract from the bank on the status of the account, bank cards, a certificate from the accounting department of the enterprise and so on). Your monthly official income should be at least $ 500, and the account must have a minimum of 1000 cu.
