If you are going to Burma (Myanmar) on business trip, you are going to need to get a business visa. This type of visa will allow you to stay in the country for up to 70 days.
Note that, while I recommend you to get your Business Visa before you come to Burma, depending on what country you are from, you might have the option of getting the Burma Visa On Arrival.
(Go to my Burma (Myanmar) visa page for information on other types of visas for Burma.)
I’ll break everything down for you below about how to go about getting the Burma Business Visa.
- Visa required for U.S. citizens before you go to Burma: Yes.
- You must have a valid passport with at least six months remaining validity and visa to enter Burma.
- While there is a visa on arrival program for people coming to Burma for business, I recommend you to get your visa before you go in order to save yourself the hassle.
- Visa required for non-U.S. citizens before you go to Burma: Yes
- As stated here, anyone who is coming to Burma needs to get a visa in order to gain entry.

- Since the Burma Ministry of Foreign Affairs seems to not feel the need to post any visa information on their website (other than telephone and contact numbers to embassies and consulates), I recommend you check out this link here which has a guideline for the type of stuff required for a Burmese Business Visa.
- You are going to have to go to the website of the Consulate or Embassy you found in Step 1 in order to confirm the documents that are required for you.
- Visa fees might vary depending on where you apply, so go to the website of the Embassy or Consulate you found in Step 1.
- Submission instructions will vary from consulate to consulate and embassy to embassy, so you will need to check the submission instructions at the website of the embassy or consulate you found in Step 1.
The Embassy or Consulate of Myanmar will give to you your brand new Myanmar (also known as Burma) visa.
