Главное

- Galápagos needs a Transit Control Card (TCT) in addition to entry permission for Ecuador.

Въезд и визы
Visa requirements depend on nationality; check the Interior Ministry list and Foreign Ministry eVisa system. Since September 2025, visa-required nationalities also need the relevant transit visa. Land entry from Colombia/Peru can require a criminal-record certificate or an official SIMIEC check. Galápagos has separate TCT controls.
