Do I need a visa to travel?
Depends on your passport and destination. Most strong passports (US, EU, UK, Japan) get visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 150+ countries for short tourist stays. Check the destination's embassy site — third-party 'visa' sites are usually scams that resell free or cheap government services.
Follow-up questions
What about ESTA, ETIAS, eTA?
These are pre-travel authorisations (not visas) for visa-free visitors. ESTA: US. ETIAS: EU/Schengen (launching). eTA: Canada. Apply directly on the official site.
How long can I stay?
Typically 90 days within a 180-day window for tourist entry. Schengen is strict and cumulative across all member states.
Do I need travel insurance?
Some Schengen visas require it (€30,000+ medical). Otherwise optional, but a single hospital visit abroad usually costs more than a year of insurance.
