Information needed on visas/passport stamps for Sri Lanka/Bangladesh and Burma.
Hi everyone...hope you can help me.
I've got a U.K passport which is quickly filling up and I only have 2 pages left.
I'm hoping to visit 3 more countries before I head home and with 2 pages left you can see my problem!...
... Firstly Does anyone know how easy/difficult it is to get a Burmese visa at the embassy in India, I heard you need 6 passport photos and god knows what else???
Secondly... I'm wanting to go to Bangladesh and I must go to Sri Lanka before I leave (thats where my plane is!), Does anyone know whether I need a full page visa in my passport for these countries, I heard I get 15 days and 30 days in bangladesgh and Sri Lanka at the border but I don't know if its just a small stamp or large visa.
The information would be a massive help and i'll be able to decide whether I can use up my pages for Burma or i'll need to keep them free for Sri Lanka.
Cheers
Danny
Reply to this I had a similar situation and asked the person at the immigration desk to stamp into the little empty corners of the pages. They did. The visas you get on arrival are almost a full page, but the good news is that they will stamp both your entry and your exit stamps on the top of the visa. Also in Bangladesh you can only get a visa on arrival if there is no Bangladeshi Embassy in your country. I know this for a fact, because I was turned back at immigration! I had a couple of expired visa stickers come off of the passport pages and the immigration people were more than happy to stamp their things on those pages.
I hope this helps. Good luck :-)
