ラトビア:出発前に知っておきたいこと
重要ポイント
- Check whether the national travel declaration applies; where required, submit at least 48 hours before entry.
- A declaration does not override visa requirements or Russian tourist-entry restrictions.
入国とビザ
Latvia follows Schengen rules, including external-border EES checks, and also has its own Electronic Travel Declaration. Non-exempt travellers without a Latvian visa or residence permit must submit it at least 48 hours before entry. It is not a visa or entry permit. Russian tourist-entry restrictions also apply; check exceptions before booking.
