Free Cancellation = Freedom

Changed your mind? Flight delayed? Plans changed? With Booking, choose the "Free Cancellation" options. Book for safety, decide later.

Keep your cash! Most Booking reservations allow you to pay on arrival. You secure your entry without spending a cent today.

Smart Traveler Tip

  • 1

    Book for the first night

    Even if you plan to move around, have at least the first night "sorted" for the eTravel form.

  • 2

    Print confirmation in English

    Or keep the offline PDF on your phone. Airport wifi is sometimes unreliable.

  • 3

    Pass immigration with a smile

    With your return ticket and your Booking reservation, you are untouchable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Airbnb work for customs?â–Ľ

Do I need to book my whole stay?â–Ľ

No, for a tourist visa, only the first address is required on the eTravel form.
